Showing off might be a little bit childish. Striking a balance between modesty and pretending to have actual confidence has been something of a fight for Elsa for years, though, so she doesn't really care. She's been feeling more and more sure of her abilities these last few months, and that means the world. Even if she still has her doubts, she's mostly certain she knows what she's doing, which is a far cry form how she felt less than a year ago. It makes her whole life easier.
If there are two people in the world she would credit with helping her find her footing, they're Anna and Jessica. They've both seen firsthand what Elsa can do, of course. But she's been itching to show Jessica more for ages now, so when a chance arises for them to both get away for an afternoon, she takes it.
It's easier to go out at night sometimes, even if she pays for it when she gets to work on those mornings. With both of them working, though, it's the time when they're both most free. It's easier, too, to let loose on the city streets and roofs late in the evening, when it's darker and only a few people will see her and she knows it's for a good cause. She doesn't want to be always hiding in shadows, though. The sun is bright today. That's just how she wants it.
There's a cove a little way up the coast, outside of town, isolated and shielded from view by the cliffs. The beach there isn't much, but it's space enough for her to work, so she tells Jessica to meet her there. She brings a picnic lunch and a blanket to sit on (if only because it occurs to her that Jessica might get cold, even if she won't), but she keeps both off to the side, leaving as much clear space as she can. Frowning to herself, she studies the area. The ground is a bit rough with shells, kelp, and rock, but she can level it off with a layer of ice for the foundation. After that, it should be fine.
