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!

Effie's jaw hurt from how tightly it was clenched. But given the way her District, and heer District's associates were presented, after the interviews aired, she had much more to deal with then her own personal life.
Still, later that night when she saw John, She was quick to pull him aside to..discuss things.
"What...what was all that?"
Of course Effie, don't remember that you watched those scenes yourself not too long ago.
no subject
"Effie. I was going to come see you- to try and explain. That- I didn't say that, exactly, and I wasn't talking about Sherlock. They must have thought it was more entertaining to edit it like that. I think they did the same kind of thing with everybody, not just me..."
no subject
She was clearly barely containing herself. She wanted...well she wasn't sure what she wanted to do. But it wasn't keep everything in.
"Why would they do that?"
no subject
"No, that wasn't- I don't know why they did it. They asked if there was anything else I wanted to say, in this interview they had us all do, and I said- something about wanting to be able to meet the people of the district I was representing. 'You have to let us meet the people we're fighting for'. I can't remember exactly what I said before that, but I definitely remember using the word 'connection'. They just cut my words up and rearranged them."
no subject
"I just don't understand why they'd stretch it that way."
no subject
no subject
She smiled, before reaching out to take his hand, squeezing it.
"It was silly...to get caught up in rumors like that. I just...lost my head." She squeezed his hand, before smiling brighter. "The papers back home? You were well known back home?"
no subject
"No, it's alright. Honestly, Effie, I would have found it hard myself," he admitted. "Sherlock was getting famous, back home, and I worked with him. We solved crimes- he's ridiculously clever, you know- and I wrote up about them and published them on the Internet on my blog. We had write a wide readership, in the end. I suppose I must just have seemed a little too excited by it all, or something, who knows."
no subject
"Perhaps...I should get to know Sherlock a bit better. I admit I was...not very much myself the first time we met."
Though deep inside, she still had a little spark of pride at that moment.
no subject
"Wish I'd seen it," he laughed. "You really got him. It doesn't happen very often, and he could do with a bit of shaking up, some times."
no subject
Satisfying, was what it had been.
"I hope I haven't left too bad of an impression."
no subject
He didn't say what he probably should have said, that Sherlock never approved of his girlfriends, because they'd not quite got around to putting a title on whatever this was, and who wanted to hear about old girlfriends?
”I hear he wasn't exactly himself, either, so I wouldn't worry too much about it."
no subject
The smile that had been lurking now came out full tilt.
"It was a strange day for everyone, that's for sure. Some sponsors are..." She dropped her voice, her face going dark. "Quite troublesome, you know."
no subject
"You really are- I must be the latest in a long list of people to tell you this, Effie, but- when you smile- it's beautiful," he said, colour slowly spreading under his skin.
no subject
"Thank you so much, John. It means a lot, coming from you." She pressed her lips together, trying to contain a much more girlish grin from taking over her face.
"I...uh...the, well...many of the Sponsors, actually are good people, but some...there is a large cultural gaps between them." She was trying, desperately, to get her mind back on track, still glowing from the compliment. "But some...like the Baron, are just sour."
no subject
It was hard to concentrate on a subject as strange as sponsors, sour or not, when he was watching Effie suppress a smile, doing her best to smother it.
"People are people, I imagine," he said, simply. "Good ones, bad ones, mistaken ones-- and ones that I really hope will say yes when I ask them to dinner, tomorrow?"
no subject
She paused, realizing that he was asking her, not about any actual sponsor, and that smile she was trying to keep down just got that much harder too.
"Well, I'm not actually allowed to be a sponsor..." She trailed off, realizing she was going into info mode again. "Id love to. If you meant me."
She suddenly felt 15 again, and wasn't sure how she felt about that.
no subject
no subject
Now would be the worst time to get fired for rule breaking, and it had never been an option she had before considered.
"I would love to."
