It was hard for Ivory to continue to deny her feelings as she continued to watch Cecelia and her mother. She hadn't thought about such things in so long... The fact she simply could not ignore it was truly bothersome, but Cecelia's happiness and excitement was a little infectious, so she couldn't help but smile down at her as she spoke again, glad that she had taken her words to heart. She had never really considered herself any sort of role model.. it was.. certainly strange to hear someone so young say something like that to her.

Her gaze shifted to Geralt as he knelt down in front of the girl again. His words were sound. The girl did have quite a bright personality, complete opposite to her own. It would be good if she could still remain the way she was even after she grew up. The cheeriness reminded her a little of Akane and Cora. 

[color=darkgray]"It really is.. The most important thing is for you to be able to be yourself. It's what our circus stands for."[/color] She agreed. That was kind of their motto was around here.

[color=darkgray]"I actually can't take credit for finding her, my... colleague here was actually the one who brought her to my tent.. Regardless I'm glad we were able to find her"[/color] She wasn't about to take credit for something she didn't do. While she had heard the child first, Geralt had been the one to actually offer his aid. 

[color=darkgray]"Next time.. be sure to bring your mother along okay? You can come see me together. Maybe.. I can arrange from some front row seats on the last night for you.. if you want to come again?"[/color] She asked. Normally this was something she wouldn't really do without asking Lucien, but considering the circumstances, she knew that he'd be okay with it. Plus... they had already come see her twice, it would be nice if she and her mother were able to enjoy the other shows as well.
