The past months since the space Arena have been kind of a blur for Gary. Before then it was a period of adjustment, getting his bearings and coping with his first unpleasant experiences in the children's Mini-Arena. After that, everything seemed to run together. Arena 12 ended fast, and the Crowning became the Reaping for the next, with a scant few weeks between to regain his footing and cope with the loss of some friends. Only now, some time after his death in Arena 13, after the Victor was announced and things finally began to feel like normal again, has Gary remembered some important bets he made months ago.

He lost those bets. But in losing, he's gained two dates.

Gary isn't much of a planner. Almost as soon as he remembers what needs to be done, he writes out two notes and hands them off to a passing Avox to deliver them. From there, it's just a matter of waiting at the places specified and hoping that the recipients show.

Iskierka,

Meet me outside the Tribute Center just before sunset on Wednesday. Bring an empty stomach--we're having steak! ;)

<3 Gary

The other one requires slightly more thought.

Megan,

You know the huge amusement park on the docks? The one with the crazy floating coasters? There's a pier next to it with a cruise boat. Meet me there at 10pm on Thursday. Don't be late, or you'll miss it! ;)

<3 Gary

They make for good enough things to hold on, under the circumstances. Where Iskierka the size she usually is, there'd have been more rigging and more handholds in general, but as things stand there's not much call for that sort of thing. That and it had been hard enough to convince one of the Stylists to make her even what she has now - Iskierka can hardly imagined what it would take to make something that's closer to what she's used to. Not to mention she's more courier-sized now that she's ever been before and she has very little idea of what proper rigging for a courier looks like.

And besides, as long as Gary's careful, they shouldn't do him any significant damage.

"Why, of course it is," she answers, quite happily. "After all, there is nothing else like it."
