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.

"This has been part of my human learning experiences." Human learning experinces... via Dave, that is. Who may not be the best source of factual knowledge for the aforementioned human learning experience.

"There are always about fifty different words to refer to anything that you're trying to refer to. Except when it comes to genitals! Then, it's like a competition to discover the most inane and arbitrarily related phrase with as few contextual clues as possible. All for the purpose of making someone think that they've accidentally referred to someone's bulge in the middle of the sentence. Cue the laughing and public ridicule, etc etc, everyone goes home happy! Unless they go home crying from the embarrassment, but that's their own fault for talking in the first place."

So Beck didn't really understand the embarrassment when it came to...yeah. It was just another part that was kind of unnecessary, right? They didn't have any of this stuff in the Grid.

So there wasn't any harm in asking more details! Maybe the more he knew about the body and the brain, the easier it would be to live around here. Especially in the Arena when he basically became a loner until he died.

"Why would they be embarrassed? It's just another part, right?"
