There was always the matter of figure skating being a sport fully about beauty and perfection. The judges showed that much with their scores and while Wednesday definitively did not want to be just a pretty face she would do whatever she could to win.Naturally this included the less savoury aspects like charming the judges and being a perfect little princess. Around her competition she certainly wasn't that nice. She used her charm, but only on those that could actually get her further down the field where she wanted to be. She'd learned to use her differences to her advantage, even if she hated doing so from time to time. If this was her curse, she'd make the best of it.
So as she stepped onto the ice she smiled her most charming little smile at the judges, just on the border between flirty and friendly. They would understand it the way they wanted to. She skated to the center and did her best to channel her charm as well as she could. This world didn't really allow flaws. She smiled as she took up her starting pose, preparing to skate a flawless routine...
When she got off the ice for her scores she finally allowed the energy drain to settle in, although the buzz of skating always compensated for how tired she felt. She had done her best and hadn't fallen or made any obvious mistakes, which was good. She should get a decent score, or at least she hoped she would.
