Who| Maximus and OPEN
What| Maximus just wandering around, basically this is for new CR and ongoing CR and whatever else happens to fall in here. Not really plot specific, just a needed space for some threads.
Where| District 3 suites, Training Centre, the Park, or the Speakeasy
When| Post Wesker's win
Warnings/Notes| Nothing planned that way! Will edit if it comes up.
Maximus did not enjoy the downtime in the Capitol.
It wasn't that he particularly enjoyed the Arenas, either, but being in the Arena was at least vaguely familiar. Survival. Death. It was a cycle he knew and understood.
Unlike the politics. Unlike the gossip and the glamour and the giggling behind hands. Unlike the Avoxes that found their way into his rooms, unlike the women that threw themselves upon him in the street.
He spent almost all of his time either in his suites, training, meandering the park, or looking for Wyatt in the speakeasy. He actively wanted to learn more about his fellow tributes, but did that more by listening and observing than by approaching. He wanted to learn their strength of character. Wanted to know how, deep inside themselves, they felt about their adoptive city and the games that they were forced to compete in.
And the best way to learn that, however slowly it took, was to watch. And to wait.
Eventually everyone laid themselves open.

So, she had taken to extra training in between her sponsor outings. Really, though. The training was to relieve her left over frustration from the sponsor dates. She hated herself for doing it, but she hated those clients more. It wasn't like she was doing anything intimate with them at least.
Still made her feel sick when they'd touch her in any form imaginable.
So, Holiday was practicing her ability with a spear this time. (She liked changing it up a little every time.) She wasn't bad, she wasn't great, but it was obvious that her emotions were involved. Holiday stopped to catch a breather when she noticed someone else walking in.
"Oh. Hi."

"Good Evening," he replied with a stiff, short bow of his head.

"My name's Holiday. I've seen you around." She tried to engage in a conversation with him. It was better to do so here than in the arena. Was this man more like Wyatt or Aunamee?
