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.

The chilly air outside was comforting to Elsa. She inhaled deeply, as if she couldn't get enough of it. Anyone else might have been too cold, in such a revealing outfit and nothing to cover up with- but not Elsa. This was her favorite kind of weather, aside from outright snow.

Elsa continued to breathe as Effie spoke, perhaps sounding a lot like she was hyperventilating. It was almost true- but the heavy, labored breathing was helping her calm down. "I'm sure they are," Elsa said, unable to help a bitterness in her tone. "I don't think they want them hurt before they can die properly."

As she finished, she felt a stab of guilt. The woman was being friendly, she didn't deserve hostile remarks thrown at her. "...Sorry," Elsa added after a second. "I'm sorry. I'm not angry at you- I'm just... tired."

Effie shows a moment of flustered annoyance, but Elsa's graceful apology comes quickly enough that it is overwhelmed with sympathy.

The poor thing.

She nods along sympathetically, laying a hand on the girl's shoulder.

"I understand, dear. I do."

((OOC: It's okay! I understand. If it's okay, I think I'll let this one go and then we can do more with Effie and Elsa in the future!))

((Sounds good. We can just say Effie soothed her and then went to find hers.))
