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:

"Yeah, I..." He frowned, blushing and ducking his head. "The last guy I was with was like...six six."

He shook his head. "So you've...got a boyfriend?"

Blaine winces a bit. "Not really. We're, um, broken up. I probably shouldn't have called him that," he felt like an idiot now that he thought of it. "I did something really horrible and it really hurt him. He was completely right to call it off with me but we saw each other over Christmas." A pause. "That's where I was when they took me here. I was in his apartment on Christmas."

"Fuck, man," Atticus said, moving his hand to Blaine's shoulder and giving it a squeeze. "That really sucks."
mediumdrip: (don't know what i'm doing)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-23 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
"It's kind of dumb that I'm so depressed because it was Christmas," he said. He found himself leaning a bit into Atticus then, seeking out the comfort being offered. "This place is the worst Christmas gift I can think of."
kind_of_a_nerd: (b & w hugs)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-23 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
"No, it totally makes sense."

Have a huge hug, Blaine. Atticus was pretty good at those.
mediumdrip: (with Kurt; never good bye)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-23 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Blaine leaned into the hug, returning it a bit by putting his hand back on Atticus's chest.
kind_of_a_nerd: (vested)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-23 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
Atticus rubbed his hand over Blaine's back. "I mean...it sucks to be here anyway, right? But at Christmas...that just really sucks. Christmas is...for family."
mediumdrip: (arms exposed)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-23 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
"Or friends," Blaine said. "Sometimes friends are your family."
kind_of_a_nerd: (Default)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-23 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, or friends," Atticus agreed quietly.
mediumdrip: (advice face)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-23 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
Blaine grew silent for a while as he leaned against Atticus. Finally he said, "I wonder if they even have Christmas here."
kind_of_a_nerd: (dorky smile)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-23 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
Atticus frowned as he considered that.

"If they don't...we could just have one ourselves."
mediumdrip: (scarf smiling)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-23 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Blaine smiled a bit at the idea. "Hey, we could get some of our friends in on it. I think some of them come from realities without Christmas."
kind_of_a_nerd: (listening)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-23 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, we should! Nobody should be without Christmas."
mediumdrip: (leaning on rail)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-24 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't even know when we'd celebrate it here though? Sometime in the the winter, but they don't exactly keep time the same way, do they?"
kind_of_a_nerd: (Default)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-24 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
He shrugs. "Four days after the solstice? They have to have a solstice."
mediumdrip: (leaning in dalton gear)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-24 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
He nodded at that. "Sounds about right," he said. "So we'll see if they have it and plan if they don't." A pause. "Even if they do, because I don't want to know what kind of twisted things they think of as a holiday."
kind_of_a_nerd: (cheesy grin)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-24 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, yeah." He wrinkles his nose. "Probably not the best idea."

Finishing his drink, he grins at Blaine. "Wanna dance?"
mediumdrip: (apply myself)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-24 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
"Are you drunk enough?" Blaine asked. "Because I'd love to."
kind_of_a_nerd: (adjusting glasses)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-24 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
"If I get any drunker, I won't be able to dance," Atticus said with a laugh. "It's kind of a fine balance."
mediumdrip: (prom; dapper)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-24 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Blaine pushes up then and offers his hand to Atticus. "Well come on," he says. "I'm not about to waste the perfect balance."
kind_of_a_nerd: (giggles)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-24 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Atticus laughed as he took Blaine's hand. "Let's go!"
mediumdrip: (holding hands)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-24 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Blaine laughed a bit as he moved to pull Atticus to the floor.
kind_of_a_nerd: (giggly glasses)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-24 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Grinning, Atticus followed easily.
mediumdrip: (smiling; bowties are cool)

[personal profile] mediumdrip 2013-03-26 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Once they get to the floor Blaine presses close to Atticus. "Ready?" he asks before falling in step with the other dancers on the floor. He enjoys dancing with Atticus, even if they have to sort of watch the other dancers to get the steps right.
kind_of_a_nerd: (can't dance)

[personal profile] kind_of_a_nerd 2013-03-27 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
"Yep!" Atticus definitely struggles with getting the steps right, but he has fun doing it anyway.
