Who| Sabriel and you
What| Sabriel's back in the Capitol after her first death. There's a lot to catch up on.
Where| D10 suites, training center, and various shops and restaurants around the Capitol
When| After Sabriel dies in the arena
Warnings/Notes| Mention of death, avoxing

Option A [The common areas of the 10th floor were where Sabriel took her breakfast most of the time, and where she sits on the couch, looking over the news about strange diseases and the fate of District 3 and Cecil Palmer as she drinks a cup of tea and tries not to throw up, or start shouting in rage.]

Option B

[Sabriel spends some time at the training center practicing with a sword, doing her best to hack several dummies to pieces, and then skewering each piece.

But she spends far more time at the survival skills stations, and learning about spears and knives and a variety of improvised blunt weapons. She speaks to other tributes on occasion, her demeanor seems oddly intense.]


Option C

[She needs sponsors, she needs information, and she wants to get out of the tower. This is how Sabriel winds up eating dinner at a variety of restaurants and shops, examining the wares, eating, and talking to fans. If there's one thing thirteen years of etiquette training have given her, it's the ability to smile and act like she's having a wonderful time when she really isn't. Still, whenever she spots a fellow tribute, she can't help but wander over to talk to them.]

[Closed to Hans]

[The Speakeasy is probably the best place for this, Sabriel realizes. It's noisy enough that they probably won't be overheard, and people there seem more interested in their drinks than visiting tributes. So she sends the invitation handwritten on fine stationary, containing a time, location, pointed allusion to Starkiller, and signed with a flourish.

She arrives early and sits down at a table, drinking some kind of dark red fruit juice as she waits for a mentor she's heard about, but never met. Hopefully, she'll be able to explain what Starkiller did, and why she didn't consider his death to be completely in vain.]

Maybe not as surprised as you'd think, with some of my research.

[He catches the server's eye, pointing at his glass, and signing 'two'. Really, what can they do to him? Kill him? ]
biomechatronic: (is that the 'weird science' theme?)

Sort of accidentally. I study, well, the brain. All behavior goes through the brain.

[What had he told Kim? Consciousness is merely the processing of information?]

Dennett. [He flashes a timid smile.]

What do you do--or did do, before you came here?
biomechatronic: (this is serious)

Oh. [He sounds wistful. To be young and a student again, with all that potential left ahead of him....

[His thoughts are interrupted by the server, returning with the two glasses of wine. He'll wait till she leaves before subtly nudging one over to his new companion. He's a doctor: he won't let her get too drunk.]


So this place must be quite a shock, I imagine.
