The shocking and thrilling adventures!

[gamemakers]

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!

"Suggest it to your escort or whatever, maybe they'll actually let you. Or do some prank'd kind of things. Ever seen that kind of show, where people pull pranks on each other and film them, just so they can post them online and on TV? People love those." Cindy laughed. "Hell, I love those. People freaking out when their cab driver flies up into the air? Gets me every time."

She took another sip of champagne, almost draining the glass. They didn't skimp on the good stuff, here.

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley squealed with glee "Oh I LOVE those shows! Mister J and I did that a few times but his pranks usually had more fatalities then cable TV lets you show on the air." She chuckled as if it was all in good fun.

"My favorite prank, the not lethal kind anyway, was this one where a couple of midgets get into a fight in a bar? And they are fighting over one of the midgets midget girlfriend...wait was she a midget or a dwarf? I mean I've always kinda figured they weren't dwarves unless they had beards but anyway..."

She took a swig from her drink before continuing. "So the midgets are fighting and one knocks out the other, and then midget police show up and cuff the winner of the fight and march him out with his girlfriend. And THEN Midget paramedics rush in, scoop up the one who got K.O'd and whisk him away. And the rest of the bar is just like..." She pulled a slack jawed look of utter confusion before bursting out laughing at the memory.

"That's the long and short of it." She added.

[undercoverprincess]

Cindy knew a couple of dwarves (and knew that Snow White had killed a fuckton of them back in the days they don't talk about), so she got the small people idea. And maybe it wasn't politically correct in a Fable kind of way to laugh about it, but that transferred over to the real world, too. You just don't laugh about bad things happening to little people.

Which made Cindy crack up. "You didn't! I would have paid money to be sitting in that bar watching this go down. That is hysterical, those people never even knew what hit them!"

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley took an exaggerated bow. "Thank you thank you~ You'd be surprised how many dwarves are in the market to become henchmen. I think they figure if they get hired on with a big crew they can end up like...team mascot and not have to worry about getting shot. By the time they figure out the truth well...too little too late."

[undercoverprincess]

"I'd think dwarves would want to be in the circus or something. I can't see them being pretty useful in a group, I mean, can they shoot a gun that will get you above the knees?" Cindy raised an eyebrow. "Then again... I have a friend who hates dwarves with a passion. She'd shoot them as soon as hiring them for anything."

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley laughed once more at that. "Oh wow, what happened? Did she get dumped by two dwarves in an overcoat pretending to be a big person?" She teased incredibly amused by her own idea.

[undercoverprincess]

"Nawwww," Cindy shook her head with a small smile. "They pulled that whole Snow White crap on them, so she got back by capping the little fuckers. God, I would have loved to see that!"

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley cackled with glee leaning on Cindy for support.

"I LOVE it. Are all the fairytales from your world so hard core? Mad Hatter would probably get gutted like a fish by Alice." She thought hatter was a hoot but he had always been a bit too keen to use his mind controlling hats on her since she was already blond.

[undercoverprincess]

She grinned, patting her friend on the other shoulder. "All of them aren't what you would call 'Disney' fairytales. They're not even Hans Christian Anderson ones, either. The ones in my world, they make hardcore guys look like pussies in comparison."

Cindy smirked. "Ever hear the tale of Goldilocks?"

[revvinguptheharley]

"Sure!" Harley straightened up again "Breaking and entering, destruction of property, grand theft porridge and let's not forget sleeping in someone's bed without permission. Those bears had more then a few reasons to be upset." She giggled.

"So what happened in your version? Was it more about sleeping with the bears? A homewrecker?" She guessed wildly.

[undercoverprincess]

"Oh yeah, no matter what the story has in it, those bears are pissed." Cindy laughed. "But in my version, there's... a lot more about sleeping with the bears."

Look, she tried not to judge. But she judged Goldy hard. "Goldy didn't just sleep with baby bear because his bed was 'just right'. She got some pretty wild ideas from it, too. Like how the bears should be treated just like everyone else. So Goldy became a revolutionary and started killing people. All because that one bed was so damn comfortable, and the bear's dick was to her liking."

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley gasped in shock and then squealed with glee, "That is HILARIOUS!" She almost fell over with laughter "Talk about getting your priorities screwed up!" It was hardly the most deviant thing she'd heard of, but all the same it was a twisted take on an age old tale.

"He musta been a heck of a bed buddy to inspire her that much."

[undercoverprincess]

If any of the other Fables could hear her now... they'd probably kill her for treason. But everyone here was going to eat these stories up! She was okay with that. Besides, if she told anyone her story, even with embellishments, that helped her. She believed in that whole tales equal power deal.

Some people didn't, but since she did, she got to make the rules. "Not that I have anything to compare that one with, but Boo Bear was a pretty big baby bear. You know what they say about big bears with big paws, and all that," Cindy grinned.

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley snickered wickedly "That you'll be walking bow legged even if all they use are those paws." She teased still on the verge of giggles.

"Everybody is some bodies fetish I guess." She sighed with a satisfied smile after such a solid laugh, but her eyes were still hungry for more."

[undercoverprincess]

"Ugh," Cindy groaned. Seriously, she didn't understand how Goldie did it. Sure, Miss Moffet married that spider, Bigby and Snow got married, and Beauty married Beast, but at least they had a human form. Inter-species dating, no thank you. She'd rather be celibate for the rest of her life, then take that course.

"Mhm, but some fetishes make sense. That one was just. No thank you, no, I won't be going for that any time soon," She grinned. "Not just body fetishes. Some people just have weird little quirks. I knew a guy who killed his wives on his wedding night. And he's been married multiple times!"

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley sneered in a amused way "Bet that guys priest gives him a discount for such a high turnover. Wedding on Friday, Funeral on Sunday. Might as well just stay in the rectory."

"Everyone's got a type though. Like Hatter. Our boy Hatter he loved Alice in wonderland SO much he would use these little computer chips to make girls obedient and submissive. Then he'd dye their hair blond and dress little blue dresses like the Disney version."

[undercoverprincess]

"Please, he kills them and leaves them in a room all together, with all of their wedding dresses still on!" Cindy smirked. She'd lucked out of that one, thank god, but it still was almost an option.

Ah, Hatter. Harley's Hatter was definitely not the real Hatter, but Cindy got such a pleasure of seeing how people maimed and mangled their fairy tale counterparts. "No shit? So he makes a little army of Alices or something? What happens when they're all dressed and under his control?"

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley snickered and winked mischievously, "Would you believe he has tea parties? Sure sometimes they rob a bank or two but for the most part? All he wants to do is have a tea party."

She paused in thought.

"Well sometimes he gets to smoochin' and sitting in their laps and other unsavory stuff but like 90% of the time it's all about tea."

[undercoverprincess]

"...What?" Cindy asked in disbelief. He. What? What? Out of everything you could do with an army, and he decided to have tea parties?

"What the fuck kind of deal is that? All he wants to do is have tea parties? Sure, he's acting creepy as hell and maybe, what, robbing a bank or two? But tea parties? What happens if someone switches his tea with coffee, does he throw a fit?"

[revvinguptheharley]

"That's about the size of it." Harley giggled. "Ole Jarvis just wants to control peoples minds for fun and profit." She gave a little spin.

"He's even tried that trick on me. Lucky for me I've got friends lookin' out for me. Or I'd probably still be in a blue frock nibbling crumpets."

[undercoverprincess]

Cindy leaned back, putting a hand under her chin. "Hmmmm. Well, you do have the blonde hair for pulling off Alice. You'd have to wear your hair down, though, Alice would never have it styled like that."

She grinned. "I don't know if you could pull the blue off, either."

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley tugged the ties out of her hair and shook it out to let it tumble down in fluffy golden tresses around her shoulders.

"Aw, I can pull off any color, though I prefer red. It's all a matter of confidence." She declared and struck a pose to indicate how sexy and sultry she could be. It still looked silly.

[undercoverprincess]

"Red does work well for you." Harley had a point. Seriously, a blonde could pull off a lot of colors, when they put their mind to it. She liked red herself; it easily hid blood stains.

"Maybe you should just redesign the whole Alice costume deal. There's some confidence right there, if you're ballsy enough to change the color dress of a story book character."

[revvinguptheharley]

Harley winked playfully and gave a twirl to let her hair flutter about.

"I think I played a computer game like that once. Half the rewards were shiny new costumes for this like, super grim dark gothy Alice. The outfits were pretty cool actually. I could totally see them working around here."

[undercoverprincess]

"Was the computer game called "The Hunger Games", and were the rewards in the shape of silver parachutes?" Cindy grinned. "Because that game sounds a suspiciously a lot like what's going on, here."

Maybe she'd heard of that game, though. Alice could use some spicing up in her life. Poor, mad, crazy ass girl, living in that mental asylum with all those other crazy Fables.
