Warnings/Notes| There could be potential talk of what happened in the arena!

Sybille was...well, she was many things. She felt many things, too, but right now she was not pleased. These new tributes, this new form of Games, it all bothered her for so many different reasons. For one, it was easier to not care about tributes when you only saw them for a small frame of time before their inevitable death, but now they kept coming back and there was such little time between the Games. She was busier now, with more tributes and more events and just more stuff going on it still wasn't enough to distract her from how uncomfortable the Games were making her.

So she threw herself into her work. She had to get these tributes into tip top shape, and some of them were just...completely unacceptable. It's early in the morning, the sun is barely peeking over the horizon, as she makes the rounds personally to wake up the tributes in the District 3.

It's time for them to learn how to handle themselves in the Capitol. They're going to be here for a while, after all.

--

Transforming the off world tributes is going to take time, and Sybille doesn't have enough patience to waste much of hers every day. So she goes to the commons to relax, and she tries to avoid the bar but it's right there so she can't. (But she'll only have one, or maybe two, drinks.)

She stands out in the common room - she's clearly not a tribute, even if what she's wearing isn't as over the top and extravagant as some others wear on a daily basis, it's tight and somehow still manages to look like it's made out of spider webs. She looks healthy and like she's never been involved in a fight, and she looks far too relaxed to have just come out of a death match.

"No, it doesn't really. I guess it was done for continuity, so not to confuse those watching." He was quiet for a moment, "Though the winner... does the district they are assigned to still get rewarded? I read something about that." That the winners district was rewarded for the year, with material goods as well as the honour of having a victor.

[arachnoble]

Sybille is quiet for a moment. To be honest, she doesn't know what happens in the Districts, now. She only visited them during the Reaping, but now that the Games have changed she hasn't had to leave the Capitol at all. "I'm not sure." A beat. "They haven't told us one way or another."

[savedbyasong]

"Oh." Well that was worrying, no point in asking if she had asked. She probably hadn't, why would she care now that her job was permanently here.

"So it is merely a continuity aid for viewers then."

[arachnoble]

She nods. "I would imagine. Nobody knows what the Capitol is planning with these Games."

[savedbyasong]

"I would guess that half the fun is not knowing." For the viewers, not the tributes. There was no fun in being a tribute

"Means every arena is a surprise."

[arachnoble]

She nods. "That's always been the idea with Arenas. Don't want the viewers to get bored."

Her voice is level and calculated. She doesn't want to get the Capitol's notice, or to be seen as anti-Games.

[savedbyasong]

He nodded, understanding her careful words.

"I am sure the next one will be exciting then."

[arachnoble]

"I imagine that's what they're hoping for."

She wants to reach out, to comfort him, but. She's a professional. "I'm sure it won't be that bad once it's over."

[savedbyasong]

He nods, "I'm sure it wont be." He could deal with nightmares, he had so many already that adding a few more to the mix probably wouldn't do much.

"I'll just have to do my best."

[arachnoble]

She can't imagine going into the arena herself, and she's quiet when she answers. "I hope that your best is good enough."

[savedbyasong]

"Me too." He pushes hair out of his eyes.
