( open ) off to the races
Who| OPEN.
What| The First Annual Panem Motorcycle Races and Festival kick off.
Where| The Capitol.
When| Friday - Sunday.
Warnings/Notes| For more information, check out the original post, or see the results and winnings post.
Starting Friday, the Capitol has pushed out onto the chill streets with hopes for entertainment and the thrill of races most of them have no personal stakes in. The races are spread out over the first few days, with whispers of a surprise happening on Sunday. Everyone's theorizing what it could be. It's the nature of crowds to indulge in curiosity on a massive, gossipy level, and the Citizens of the Capitol are no exception.
Aside from the races, people stopped by the ice skating rink sponsored by one of the museums from the last Arena, with a Mindy themed focus. There are ride-alongs: Capitolites make a donation to the Gamemaker's Foundation (or something, idk) in order to get a chance to ride along on a short loop track with a racer. They can make this donation and then dictate anyone be the tag-along, from themselves, to their children, to another Tribute/Mentor. Why? Because Shippers.
Set indoors, there's Bumpercycle Jousting. Minimal injury, maximum ridiculous.
And back on the street, there's festival foods, with businesses opening doors and inviting chilled citizens in to enjoy special foods and drink and merchandise suited to the season and post-Games festivities.
Each night finishes with a round of fireworks in the sky.

Now it's on like Donkey Kong. He zooms after Karkat, smashing every button he can reach.
no subject
If he died in a fucking kiddie race vehicle crash he was going to haunt the shit out of Punchy.
no subject
Totally a real thing, sassy sauce.
no subject
He needs to catch up with Punchy. And once he does, he'll give Punchy back everything he just got back, tenfold.
no subject
And he starts hitting a button with fire on his car, which gives him little spurts forward. Deet deet deet.
