open spectator log because why not
Who| Anyone who wants to spectate but doesn't want to make a million logs
What| Spectations, spectactling, spectalary. Gathering together to cross fingers and watch the mini arena.
Where| The Commons
When| All through the mini-arena. However many hours people feel the need to watch.
Warnings/Notes| Watching your friends die, kind of a huge bummer.
In one of the many tasteful bursts of helpfulness the Capitolites are prone to having, the commons are full of bowls of snacks and drinks. Popcorn or many varieties, candy and drinks are spread across the table, as if it's a delightful addition to the decorum right now. In another bout of helpfulness, there's also over a dozen tissue boxes spread across the room, nested between couches and chairs. Basically, it's all super tasteful.
It's probably a little sickening watching the Arena on the screens in the common room, but it's hard not to keep a close eye on your friends. Surely some people will opt to keep their viewing in private, but perhaps others are inclined to gravitate toward other people while this shit goes all the way down.
As far as parties go, this one is a real stinker.

"How can you be so hopeful? You're the one who's all cynical and realistic and don't lie usually."
It seemed to clash with the idea of having any hope of good things coming.

She wasn't lying, after all. She DID say "if nothing else happened".

"You just don't seem that hopeful to me. Hopeful people are happy. You only smile when you're winning."

"I have hope. I get happy. When I'm with friends, yeah, I'm happy. When I'm not, I'm here, and my mind goes back to where I need to be focused."
Revisiting past pain no one needed to know about.

"I guess that's all we can hope for sometimes."
It wasn't much, but it was better then nothing.

Ok, good. A little less thinking definitely helped her situation.
