Who| Elsa and whoever might be up fairly late
What| Elsa goes up to the roof to admire the Capitol
Where| On the roof of the living suites
When| Present day, sometime after midnight
Warnings/Notes| N/A
The weeks following her time in the arena have truly been the hardest that Elsa had ever experienced in her entire life. Not even losing her parents had been as painful as the knowledge that she had killed Anna. All of her life, she had avoided her sister in order to keep her safe and yet when she finally felt like she could be around Anna without hurting her. She had been wrong- her powers had returned and everything had gone horribly wrong.
Ever since then, she'd done exactly as she had her entire life; shut herself in her room and keep everyone out. It was painful and lonely, but she knew it was what she deserved for hurting Anna.
But even those who felt like they were monsters grew restless sometimes and as the days ticked by, Elsa found herself wanting to get out and explore a little. This world was new and foreign and her brief glimpses of it before had been intriguing. The technology was confusing but fascinating all at once.
Finally, the curiosity got the better of her. Late one night, after the noise outside died down and it seemed like everyone had retired for the night, Elsa made her way out of her room. It was too late for her to want to leave the building entirely, so she opted instead to go somewhere she thought she could get a small taste of what she wanted.
So eventually, she made it to the roof. It was the first breath of fresh air she'd had in weeks as she stepped out into the cool night air. Elsa stepped forward until she was near the edge of the building. The view was absolutely breathtaking, she could hardly believe what she was seeing. It was so different from Arendelle, with it's lights and large buildings- to be honest, it was a little overwhelming on top of beautiful.
Suddenly Elsa felt really small and alone. She wrapped her arms around herself and let out a small sigh, closing her eyes. There was no sense in missing Arendelle. She didn't belong there now- if they knew she had killed Anna, then they would shun her- or worse. In her opinion, now she belonged here. With the murderers and the monsters, because that was exactly what she was. If anyone deserved to go back to Arendelle, it was Anna.
Elsa continued to stare out at the twinkling, colorful lights of the Capitol, arms folded over her chest. As horrible as she'd started to feel, she didn't have any particular urge to go back to her room at the moment. So she allowed herself to zone out, imagining what each of the buildings might have in them. So lost in her thoughts, anyone could come upon her and she wouldn't notice.

"Maybe so," she said. After a moment, she took in a breath, letting it out in a sigh. She suddenly felt tired. "If you don't mind, though... I think I might head back to my room. I'm getting tired- who knows, maybe I might be able to sleep now."

"Protip kiddo, they've got this tea you can make, if you can't find a box of it in the kitchen order it from room service. It's like sleepytime tea or something but it'll put you right out nice and peaceful like. You might get some vivid and weird dreams...but maybe it'll smother the unhappy thoughts for ya?"
Seems like more and more people were using the drugged tea to sleep these days. But Harley was a fan of better living through science.

"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind." She didn't know if she had the energy to actually go and make the tea, she actually felt much more tired than she'd have expected. Maybe all she needed was to talk?
Her gaze lingered on Harley for a moment, almost unwilling to leave her company before she pulled herself away and headed to the exit. She stopped, gave a small wave, and then disappeared through the door.

"Nice kid. It's gonna be a shame when this world ruins her." She remarked offhandedly to no one in particular. Popping the last bite of her now cooled cake into her mouth she considered the possibilities.
Maybe Dr. Quinnzel could help make the pale girl strong enough to survive the living hell this world inflicted on tributes.
Or maybe Harley Quinn could make her crazy enough to enjoy it.
Time would tell.
