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!

"Thank you," Tim said quietly. "He's a good man, better than anyone here will ever know. Not many people will go out of their way to help others. Genovese syndrome, the bystander effect - whatever you want to call it, it's technically called diffusion of responsibility. It doesn't affect Bruce. No one wants to adopt teenagers. I would have gone into the foster system or an orphanage, like Dick was. He stepped up, took us in, and made sure it didn't happen. No... Most people don't give a shit."

That was the least that Bruce had done, really, because it had had the most negative side effects, but it would have to serve as the best of him. The Wayne Foundation carried no weight here, and Panem didn't seem to have much interest in charitable causes. Vigilantism had an inherent defiance of the law.

He raised his eyebrows at the compliment and hearing how attractive Tributes fare better with sponsors be put so plainly. It's nothing that Tim hasn't known for a long time. First impressions matter. Physical appearance is a significant portion. It's why he hasn't argued with his stylist much; he has no concept of Capitol tastes.

Still, he appeared flustered by the revelation. "I - I wish they'd like me for who I am, but I'll take friends however I can make them."
