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!

By the time she made her way to where he was sitting, Tim was genuinely calming down. They still had two major routes left to them, and there were endless options between them. He could find one that suited them and the Capitol. They were going to be fine.
"You don't have to. I take full responsibility." His idea, his problem. He could point out that she had agreed with him, but pissing off the person that he know had to be on good terms with when they were in public wasn't going to be risked.

Damn it.
Stephanie sits on the arm of his chair and looks down at him. Despite the fact that she was actually older than him, he always made her feel inferior with things like this. He'd been raised to deal with publicity and all the things that come with that publicity while she'd been dealing with making sure there was money to buy gas for the week.
"I feel like this is some sort of death sentence. Goodbye any illusion of privacy and hello 'Tiffanys'. They're going to want to talk to us and you know me and words." Tim had to have an idea on how to salvage this sudden fame.
no subject
It wasn't that he was over being angry and humiliated. Tim had shoved that away to be dealt with later. At this rate, later was going to be months from now. They weren't really making any progress with finding a way to get home - Tim couldn't even find a way to get away from the dozens of people who could be considered handlers for more than a few hours.
"It's not a death sentence," Tim began carefully. It was more like being sent to work in the rockyard. That wasn't helpful. "It was only an illusion to begin with. You knew that. As for you and words, tell me now what you're going to say. I'll follow your lead."
He was better than she was at subterfuge. He could handle however Steph wanted to take this - it wasn't like his idea had gone that well. "I'm sorry."
no subject
Stephanie looked back at him and smiled. "We'll keep going. Every good reality show has romance." A hand moved back to catch one of Tim's. "I just wish we had a bit longer to ourselves." Plans had to be made faster now. She hated being a planner since doing was much more her style.
no subject
A camera was catching this, every second of it. They might even have audio, but Tim doubted that the Capitol cared. The exposé was irrefutable - it didn't matter what the truth was, it mattered what things looked like. Which meant that what Tim wanted, to comfort and be comforted, dovetailed neatly with the Gamemakers needs.
He gave Stephanie's hand a squeeze and pulled her down onto his lap. "Yeah, I know. This whole thing reeks of bad idea, but I don't have a better one. This one lets us sneak into each other's rooms."
Leaning closer so that his mouth was near her ear, Tim murmured, "And we can talk like this in a noisy crowd, which is as close to privacy as we're going to get. As long as you blush, we're fine."
For varying degrees of fine. Tim would never be comfortable giving voice to some things, and, if she started brushing her lips against his ear, he'd be the one blushing. This was a bad idea.
no subject
Her arms wrap around his neck and she lays her head on his shoulder. At least he's here, right? As painful as all of this is it's easier knowing that she can have this if only for a moment. His whisper makes her laugh and she turns her head. "Who said I'll be the one blushing." She gives his ear a peck before laying her head on his shoulder again.
no subject
Besides, arguing until it was clear that he didn't want to sneak into her room because they were dating? Like that ends well. He'd get flustered; she's be hurt or pissed (most likely both). It would get emotional and embarrassing. The only positive is that it would blow Tiphanie to smithereens.
However, Steph's on his lap, and his hand is still rubbing her back. Maybe he doesn't want to cut this short.
But then she's kissing his ear and teasing him , because, yes, now he's blushing while his brain short circuits. Tim mumbles as his hand moves into her hair. "It'll happen. Just wait until I kiss you in the next parade. I've got it all planned."
no subject
"The point is to be united with your fellow District Tributes, not the hot blonde from District Four."
no subject
Tim smirked at her, enjoying this too much. This is how he'd like them to have been, if they ever could have managed it back home. Close, teasing, and sweet on each other. Thinking of why it didn't work out hurt, and pretending that it did didn't, so Tim moved on impulse, stealing a kiss that's barely met the qualifications of the term, just a quick brush of his lips against hers.
It occurred to him immediately that he shouldn't have done that, and Tim slipped out from under her and stood up, not trusting himself to let that scene play out any further. He offered his hand to her though. "Come on, hot blonde. Let's go mingle with our fellow Tributes."
