Muse leaded back against the back of one of the discarded animal cages, holding an old hand-mirror up and she carefully applied some of the rather alarming facepaint she was expected to don for the performance. SHe tried to get it out of the way early as she knew she'd be spending most of her time trying to keep the performers in line long enough to actually...well....perform. Some of them were an unruly lot, and her brothers only got involved if they got too difficult.

Muse drew the dark diamond shapes around her eyes before replacing the mirror, beginning to absent-minded polish the watch. She guarded the pocket watch very carefully. While a hypnotist by trade, she was no good without a focus for it, and the watch provided that much-needed focus. She had no idea what she could do without access to it.

Muse began to wander along the old cages, deciding she should probably hunt down the rabble with plenty of time before the start of the night's show. The cages had been around since the last animal had died, and many were unused...although they were a handy threat at some time. A few also served as housing for performer,s with a few alterations. She stepped around the corner, adjusting her hair and sighing.

"Right,nearly show time..."
