Aaah! That was so good. I love Rayth and Oscar's banter! I like the descriptions of the performers getting ready, and Frieda already seems quite mysterious! If you don't mind my asking, though, what's a "straw house?" I tried looking it up, but couldn't figure it out. I mostly got results the Three Little Pigs would approve of. :lol

I haven't been to a carnival in ages (and the only circus I've ever been to was the indoor rented arena type), so feel free to let me know if I should edit anything in my IC post!
