Who| Everyone, pretty much. Particularly Secret Santa people and those Creuntus is fucking with.
What| Holiday times!
Where| The Tribute Training center
When| The whole week, but Creuntus' gifts arrive today.
Warnings/Notes| none atm. Please add any in thread headers. Also, for secret santa, if you are the giver start a thread with your giftee's name (unless you two have worked something else out between you). You can use the District threads below, or choose a different setting of your own.

Every floor public space is dripping with holiday decorations.

The decorations are themed, ridiculously so. Every surface is covered, and a table sits proudly full of holiday treats and spirits, kept stocked constantly by the avoxes. Cheerful music plays softly throughout the whole building, though luckily for everyone the Capitol doesn't really know what Christmas carols are.

Those with secret santa's have a cheery, passive-aggressive note reminding them not to disappoint anyone and ruin their holiday.

Those that have expressed a want for some object from home will find a box on their bed sometime during the day, with a merry holiday greeting from Cruentus. Inside they will find the object of their desire, or something similar, crafted from their words.

In blown glass. Pretty, decorative, utterly useless.

Bert's guns, Punchy's goggles, Sigma's music box, Maximus' leg, Mindy's knife, Terezi's dragon cane...on and on, as many gifts as Creuntus could find out. Those that were with them when they were pulled are more perfect replicas, those that they have just described obviously have an artistic touch to them.

Terezi turns at the sound of another person speaking up. She recognizes the voice and the scent of the person: the newest Vantas. He's not so bad, as far as she can tell, so she doesn't seem to object to him being there. It's his district, after all.

"Thanks." She shrugs a little in response to his question, but the motion is stiff. She doesn't know how to properly explain why she's here, hanging pendants in his district's suite. "There's no significance. It's just a gift... for someone who isn't here anymore."

"Oh." He's quiet for a few moments. "I'm not sure whether or not I should express my condolences. Obviously this person was important to you, but. No one should have to be subjected to this place, of course."

That's awkward. He feels awkward. Augh.

"Are you doing well?" he asks, feeling more of an idiot each moment. One on one conversation, genuine conversation, with people he doesn't know well has always been difficult for him to navigate.

"I'm doing okay. For being here." She doesn't know how else to respond to her other comment. No one should be subjected to this place... That's true enough. But not being here wasn't a free pass to go home. And not everyone was better off at home.

"I could be worse off, I guess. I could be back where I came from. I could be dead. I could be back where I came from and on my way to imminent death." She pauses, her attention still fixed on the dragon pendant. "I'm not sure which of those is worse. But condolences would be appreciated, either way."
