who are we to be emotional
WHO| Steph and YOU!
WHAT| Arrival Shenanigans
WHEN| Today after she gets dropped in Panem
WHERE| Training Center, District 8 Suites, Rooftop
WARNINGS| None at the moment!
Training Center
This isn't the first time Stephanie has woken up in a strange place, but it was certainly the first time for a mob of armed guards informing her that she was now apart of a battle royal to the death. She'd insisted that they must be joking, but when they got nasty and threatened violence, she backed off. Contrary to popular belief, she didn't actually enjoy getting beat up. There was also the nagging feeling that something was very wrong with her, she just couldn't place what, which is why she's here in the training center.
It doesn't take long for her to discover that they're somehow blocking the serum in her body. Her punches don't move the sandbags like they used to, and she gets winded so easily that it's alarming. Steph stops the bag from swinging, breathing hard and fast. None of this boded well.
District 8 Suites
The district suites where they dropped her off are ridiculous to say the least. They're huge and gaudy and she can't quite decide if she likes them or not; It's so much space for so few people. She might be biased in that respect, but there's no denying the scale and luxury of it all.
Steph is poking around the common areas and the kitchen, investigating all the bells and whistles. It's not like she has much else to do.
Rooftop
After everything that's happened so far, Steph has wandered to the rooftop for some fresh air. She has to admit that the view of the city is is impressive. It's still a whole different world, hostile and controlling, apparently feeding on death and pain like it's going out of style. It's frustrating to be so powerless in the face of such gross injustices. But none of that means she's about to give up. No, she's just got to come up with a plan of attack. And there's no use rushing headlong into trouble.

"Ah, right..." He nods with a little too much vigor, trying to clearly indicate that he knew that he should have done that. Actually, he'd had absolutely no clue. "Tape, tape.... where've they put that?" And he laughs, trying to play it off again. "I'm not really just starting out. Really! This is just... different."
no subject
"I'm Steph, by the way." She offers as she walks over to the table. "I just got here."
no subject
"I'm Haruto Soma. I'm new to this place, too." Once they've made it to the table he extends a hand to her for a handshake, smiling expectantly. "They put me in District 11. What about you? Though I'm not too sure what this 'District' stuff is even about..."
