The shocking and thrilling adventures!

Who| Everyone
What| The Capitols oh so exclusive interviews~!
Where| Primarily the common areas, but the interviews would be on every TV everywhere.
When| This evening, at 6 pm sharp
Notes| Use this post to ICly react to the interviews (if you don't make plans of your own!)

The advertisements hit hard today. Tune in at 6 o'clock, you won't want to miss this special! Everywhere a person could look, it was there, and the city was clearly excited for whatever this mystery event was.

As if that wasn't enough, escorts were encouraging Tributes to be in the commons, and a small feast of finger foods was laid out along one wall, extra avoxes available for drinks.

And, as promised, at 6 pm sharp, all the TVs flickered to the ever flashy Caesar, on an equally flashy tabloid-tastick reality style "interview" of the tributes. All the TVs in the common area light up with it, as well as the Districts suites, even if the TV had been off before.

Hope you all enjoy your dose of fame!

"I might just take you up on that," he muttered, reaching over to grab a drink-- it might be nice to have a partner for it, especially after all this.

Callista sighed and nodded. "I think I could use it right now."

"That's an understatement," he said, half hidden in a quiet laugh. "I'd say they can't use people's names like that, but... they clearly can, so."

"Of course," she replied. "We're their property." She didn't seem exactly happy about that, of course. Rather than dwelling on that, though, she wanted to focus on something else.

"Think we could pull away and find a quiet place to work on breathing exercises?"

"If you can find an 'away.'" He smiled in resignation, glancing around at the crowds and the televisions everywhere.

She glanced around the room and then looked back at him. "Good point," she said, a small smirk playing on her lips. She was not going to let this get to her. Her anger wasn't something she wanted to risk, even if they had cut everyone off from their abilities.

She didn't know that she was talking to someone who could probably relate to that thought more than others.

He took a deep breath anyway, enough to imply that this wasn't exactly the first time he'd resorted to meditative breathing. "The crowd'll disperse once it's over, but pretty slowly," he muttered, more thinking outloud than anything else. "How early is too early to duck out?"

"I suggest we wait and see," she said. She kept her arms folded over her chest as she watched people react around her. There were so many different reactions from out rage, to bleak humor, to shell shocked expressions of surprise.

He followed her gaze, staring out at the rest of them for a few moments, before he spoke up again. "I guess we should've seen this coming. I mean, no one thought that interview was going to be a good thing, right?"

"Pretty much," she said. "Considering that we know what the questions really were, I'm surprised so many people were so candid." It said something, she thought, that they only used her for an advertizement and not for the interview itself.

hasacondition: (but who's really counting?)

"Mine was in context," he said with a smile, mock defensiveness as he glanced back to her. Of course, saying he's not targeting anyone didn't mean much when paired with the other thing.

Callista shrugged. "Does that make you feel better about it?" she asked. She wasn't being sarcastic or judgmental. Her gray eyes were just curious about his feelings on what had just happened.

hasacondition: (well it's a cute idea in theory)

[personal profile] hasacondition 2013-06-14 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
He shrugged back, but his was a lot less casual, less smooth. "It's not really what I said that's the problem."

[personal profile] morethathityou 2013-06-15 03:37 am (UTC)(link)

"What would you consider the problem then?"

"Footage." And he crammed his hands into his pockets and glanced around the room, looking for something to continue to talk about without leaving time to discuss that. "Not that anyone really loves being on TV all the time, right?"

"I admit, it's a new phenomenon for me," she pointed out with a small smile crossing her lips. She had to find the humor in this somewhere, it was way too much to take in now.
