Too long putting on a brave face;
Who | Ellie, Riley, Kili, and Fili!
What | Kili trying to distract Ellie (and Fili) from the mini-arena with ice cream! It's not very effective. Also Conversations. Capital C.
Where | Out at a cafe
When | All throughout the mini-arena!
Warnings/Notes| Mentions of trauma/starvation/etc will probably be pretty par for the course.
There was no disguising the day of the smaller arena, no hiding from the aire of trepidation around the tribute tower, when he found his two districtmates missing, but he does his best to ignore it and the glances his brother keeps giving him. Today there was but one task: to distract Ellie, to keep her from watching any of the arena (and by proxy: Fili). It didn't take long for him to realize that the strange displays he had seen all over the Capitol would somehow show them the events of the arena, as the faces of friends filled them throughout the early hours. With a knock on the girl's door (and the meeting of a new friend), Kili towed them all along as best he could to the cafe most isolated from the hubub on the streets, where he believed there would be this 'ice cream' Joel told him about. It was her favorite and potentially the only way to keep her away from any glimpse of Joel being horribly killed for sport.
"Here it is," he says as he pushes them toward the bright pink glass door, decidedly not looking at his brother. "Go pick something."
All he could hope was that he could keep them here in the parlor for, oh twelve plus hours. That shouldn't be difficult, right?
