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:

"I thought that was just so we didn't get a chance to rest."

And think, and plot, and do anything else that might jeopardize the Capitol's control of them.

"That too." And yet, Ariadne had managed just fine. Elias had caught her between Arenas. "It's more interesting if you're not at your peak, though, isn't it?"

"Yeah, I guess it must be," he said.

He didn't add that he was always at his peak, but he thought it.

She didn't doubt that in the slightest. Even she had had more than enough time to recover from the events of Arenas prior before the next one began, and she was far from the highest ranking Tribute in the place.

"Or something like that, at least. I'm still not sure how everyone here thinks."
