Slumber Party

Who| All adult Tributes
What| Slumber party fun times!
Where| The common room
When| during the Chilren's arena
Warnings/Notes| For those who earn tickets, please see this thread to post who they send them too.

The Tributes are told to arrive back at the Tower by 4 o'Clock. Anyone not there by 5 will in fact find themselves nudged home by their friendly, neighborhood peace keepers.

Everyone finds a set of P.J.s on their bed, and although there isn't any particular theme to them, none of them fall under normal, and all lean towards the children's side of things. Footsie P.J's, knee length plaids in bright pink, polyester frilly princess night gowns. And although the night isn't saturated in it, pink and purple are solidly the color code of the night.

Once everyone had been dressed, even if it is by force, they are all hearded down to the common room, which has been decked out. Pillows are everywhere, and large chunks of the floor have been changed into giant beds. The whole room is geared just slightly larger, to give the tributes the subtle but inescapable feeling that they are smaller. Gauzy curtains separate areas of the room by activity, but most furniture has been removed, sans a few scant pieces left for party purposes. Each Tribute is passed over a bag, blues for the boys and pinks for the girls. Within are a selections of goodies-face masques, a small personalized blanket with their face printed on it, and a check list of the activities. For every activity completed you get 5 tickets to send to any kid in the arena, and for completing them all you get a 20 point bonus.

On one huge wall, the Children's arena is broadcast across the whole wall. No matter where you may be in the room, you can see this wall, and the majority of the pillows are gathered around to watch it. An avox near the side of the wall will take any earned tickets and get them to the Tribute of choice in the arena, who will receive it with their next ticketed activity. Directly across from it is a huge table, dripping with every variety of junk food. Pizza's are piled high, and whenever the pile runs low a "delivery" avox will bring more. Chips, soda, cookies, and even more hand made variety of junk food like buckeyes and pigs in a blanket are spread across the table. And there is always an avox near by to "spike" your pop.


Pillow Fight: A padded arena for two is set up, with pillow armor and stuffed weapons.

Make Overs: A small salon is set up, full of ridiculous supplies like wigs, tattoo stencils, and rainbow make up. Nothing is neutral here. There are no stylists however, just lots of their toys for the Tributes to play with.

Fashion Show: After your make over you can walk over to the dressing room, full of things that are all over sized. Shoes, dressed, boas, all made sized up as if the Tributes were children themselves. You must walk the fashion run way to get points.

Video Games: A whole gaming area is set up. However the only game is a fighting game programmed with all the Children Tributes as characters.

Cup Cake Decorating: Just about everything is here to decorate, including decadent things such as live flowers and real gems. Everyone is told they must submit a cupcake for judging, the winner gets 20 extra tickets.

Spin the Bottle: Much like the traditional game, except the bottle is full. Take a swig of whatever is in the bottle before you drink, and it makes you feel much better about having to play spin the bottle after just one shot.

Seven Minutes in Heaven: Two participants are chosen at random throughout the party and hurried into a large closet for 7 minutes "alone," which anyone outside the closet can see on the monitors on the wall behind the closet. Which your character may or may not have seen before being rushed in.

Nick looks guilty turning his attention to the screen, reminding himself that they're just sprites and not the children themselves. Man, fuck everything.

"Let's get this over with," he says as he performs a dash attack. The quicker, the better.
earthborn: (now is the time to fight)

"Now, you're gettin' into the spirit of it."

Pruna, the real Pruna, was a trained assassin. A young one, sure, and training counted for about as much in young assassins as it did in young humans, but it was still reflected in her pixelated counterpart. The computer generated version was fast, twitchy, and did best in the short-range.

Shepard's choice had been arbitrary, based entirely on the fact that she was a bitch and wanted to catch her opponent off-guard before they ever began. Clementine was cute, and she was Nick's friend, but she wasn't fast, and her attacks didn't have much oomph behind them. But Shepard knew the timing, and she had figured out at least one important combo.

See, that was a mistake so many people made; Clementine was a cute kid, with those big doe-eyes and that curly mop. Shepard deftly dodged over Nick's rush; it wouldn't keep him off for long, but her fingers were already moving through a sequence that had the onscreen version of her kid twitching erratically.

Combo moves were why god had invented fighting games, in Jane's opinion. And Clementine's had range-- even if it was just a pistol. Fuck your assassin bullshit.

I just played a Smash game with Little Mac vs Samus too

Nick doesn't even know who Pruna is. But for the sake of this game and other things, he'd rather not know at all. There's too many things for him to take in all at once like this humiliation and knowing that Clem's really out there in the arena. She told him that they can bring folks back to life like a game no different from the one they're playing, but that doesn't mean it's easy for Nick to accept at first.

"Whatever."

Combos and well-timed hard hits are his best friends for this. Muscle memory from playing similar fighters before come back to Nick as he pulls a slip counter on Cle - his opponent.
