The Victor is...

Who| EVERYONE. IC participation is mandatory (OOC is not, you may handwave)
What| Momoko's victory crowning
Where| The ball room
When| The Wednesday before the next arena.
Warnings/Notes| None atm.

The party was styled for Momoko.

The tables were covered in lace, delicate dishes and silverware, flowers that fell from vases covered in Victorian paintings. It was the most extravagant tea party to ever be thrown, with tiny, thin china cups and a too many tiny little finger foods being passed around to count. The ballroom has been styled in extravagant Baroque, as the Capitol was fairly liberal with their adaption of historical time periods.

The costumes were just as liberally chosen, from tall, powdered wigs holding birdcages with live birds, clearly hailing in the style of Marie Antoinette to regency gowns gathered under daringly (and occasionally outright) exposed busts to tight corsets and the skeletons of skirts exposed and decorated. A quarter played live music at one end of the room, before a wide dance floor.

At the head of the room there was a long table with a throne for Momoko, as elaborate as anything else in the room. And along the long table, group close to those who they seemed to enjoy, was a place for many of the Tributes, with a small place card that said "Special guest of The Capitol." This table was fed first, received drinks first, and was clearly favored.

Any Tributes not seated at the long table with their peers were dispersed among the the smaller table spread about the room, left to rub elbows with the guests invited from the Capitol, and the reporters covering the event. Security was, if anything, tighter than the last crowning.

These people have seats a the big kids table. You guys are free to decide who sits by who (And if three people sit by one person, don't worry too much about it) but they are, when possible set by their friends:

Atticus Bell
Draco Malfoy
Chibi-Usa

Howard Bassem
Javert Neeshka

Dean's outfit for this time around was... more intricate than he had expected. It was formal, and at least masculine, unlike that first costume he had worn, but it was still too much for him. To look proper in the setting and yet be comfortable... they hadn't mastered that quite yet. Plus, Dean didn't like monkey suits, they weren't his style. With a forest green waistcoat and cravat, which bothered his neck to the point he almost ripped it off, he finally looked in the mirror and sighed. He had no other choice.

Walking into the grande ball room, which shocked him even more. It was extravagant, and he was pretty sure he'd never been in a place so fancy in his life, at least not before being drug to the capitol. He looked around, eyes wide, and astonished at everything, and though everything catches his eye, he decides to stand on the side lines, drinking some beverage he grabbed, and observe.

"I should probably take more notice of what I'm eating or drinking," Ian commented as he sipped a drink and stopped beside the other man. "But if they're going to drug us I imagine they'd have done it before now."

Dean looked at the other man, nodding in agreement, "Yeah. I'm sure they would have. Though, those chocolates... they was pretty crazy."

Ian frowned. "What chocolates?"
