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:

Smart move, especially when this look alike turned out not recognizing the tribute on a personal level.

"Just some really good service," Lindsey answered in a way that could probably be taken as suggestive despite his innocent meaning. "They didn't hold back for this party."

Ian did take that in a suggestive manner and looked horrified at the idea. "I didn't think that sort of thing went on in a place like this." It only went to show that it went on in toilets everywhere.

"I think I'll find some other toilets."

It took Lindsey a moment to recognize the horrified expression for what it was and he burst out in laughter. "I meant they've got good aftercare," he said, although that probably sounded suggestive too.

"Anyway, don't think there's any other washrooms at this party. It's here or you find yourself a private corner."

He wasn't sure he liked the idea of aftercare either. "I think going in a corner would probably get me thrown out." He gave a nervous look towards the toilets, though. "Perhaps I'll risk the toilets."

Lindsey grinned magnanimously at those nervous looks.

"Good choice. You won't regret it." To reassure him, he gave the guy friendly pat on the guy's shoulder as he walked past back towards the the dining tables. He had more socializing to do.

And, since names hadn't been exchanged, Lindsey made neither indication that he did or didn't recognize Ian. So which twin did the other man meet?
