The Crowning of Mindy McReady
Who| Everyone who's anyone.
What| The Crowning.
Where| A warehouse on the edge of town.
When| Starting from early evening till late into the night.
Warnings/Notes| Be sure to check the linked thread for plot purposes, even if you don't tag into it.
The party is brightly colored.
The theme, subtly, is super heroes. Boldly paints city scapes are splattered across the walls, and hallways are made to look like dingy, potentially crime ridden alleys. From the upper walkways of the warehouse, party goers can get hooked into harnesses and swing out over the dance floor. Above them, tributes and VIPS can find themselves on a clear plastic dance floor levitated above everything, looking like they're hanging in air.
Masks are passed out in plenty, and capes are easy to find, while brightly colored drinks themed around super powers are plentiful. None of them actually work, but many of the Capitol people are happy to pretend, mocking super strength or invisibility with each new beverage.
Under the dance floor a catacomb of tunnels and rooms full of obstacles is splashed with black light receptive colors. Party goers are given vests and laser guns, marked green for villains and red for heros, and set loose to hunt each other in the laser tags playground. The screens in the dance floor keep a running tally of which side is winning, displaying the players on the screens around the room, along with clips from the arenas.
About half way through the night, everyone is gathered to the main stage for a special announcement.

Re: Mindy and her Entourage
When he got close, he made a grand bow, with a wide sweep of an arm. "My congratulations." The movement was quite graceful, but the yellow and red Mighty Mouse costume (with fake ears on a headband!) rather ruined the effect.
Re: Mindy and her Entourage
It was enough, then, that she didn't laugh, even when the mouse ears had a comedic effect. She only watched him, no drop of amusement or casualness in her body language. Only assessment.
Re: Mindy and her Entourage
Why exactly was he bothering? Even he wasn't entirely sure if he was being honest with himself, but he'd walked into this. A girl her age, all hard edges, maybe reminded him of himself a bit. He'd had to learn the harsh realities of the world what seemed like a lifetime ago. He could see that written all over her. Maybe he was just doing it because he wanted Eve to look like a good sport. Under this chatter it was unlikely many people could overhear their conversation, so they would only see the two of them talking cordially, even if he wasn't using the character.
Re: Mindy and her Entourage
He had something to say, obviously. It had been hard to do it, of course, when they were trying to hurt each other. he may as well say it now.
Re: Mindy and her Entourage
He seemed to run out of steam for a moment. His steel grey eyes showed a lot of what his pleasant countenance was a mask for. He knew people were watching, and he didn't yet have the luxury of not giving a shit about appearances for sponsorship.
Finally, he reached over for a handshake. "But you were quick about it. He was dead before he hit the floor." That was as close to a 'thanks' as his pride would allow for the moment. Especially to a person he knew as little about as Mindy.
Re: Mindy and her Entourage
But the rest she understood. He had fought her, of course, for revenge, and was angry he couldn't get it. Unlike Sandy, however, he saw that killing was something she could do slow or easy. With Shion, it had been quick, because it had not been anything she was close to relishing. It would be easy to welcome murder as a hobby or a rush, but for Mindy, a death that quick meant one thing: she had wanted it over, no suffering, no prolonging. She had, after all, not had that luxury in her first Arena.
She shook his hand and looked him square in the eye. "He might not always be so lucky. You can dog his steps if you want, but he needs to be attentive. Some people get off on making it hurt as much as they can."

Re: Mindy and her Entourage
"Fuck," she said aloud to herself, "I must be to him what Azula is to me. Now I'm just depressed."
