The Crowning of Albert Wesker

Who| Everyone in the Capitol.
What| The Crowning Ceremony
Where| The Victor's Complex
When| Day of the Crowning
Warnings/Notes| None yet.

The theme of the ceremony is clearly black and red. A crimson carpet stretches out across the room. The long table for feasting seems to be made of a single slab of dark obsidian, something that couldn't possibly be found in this size naturally. The chairs are wrought iron with red cushions, and embers burn under personal barbecues at each seat. Red wine, red juice, slabs of red meat to be cooked (or eaten raw) - the details are all perfected. Even some of the Avoxes have received black tattoos for the occasion, the number '11' permanently marking under their eyes like grotesque twin tears.

For a crowning, the ceremony is rather intimate. Only a handful of guests have been invited: the usual Capitol VIPs, the Mentors of each District, and a few of the stars of the last few Games. Karis Needleteeth, Aunamee, Dr. Alastor Grey, Alpha, Lindsey McDonald and Hyperion Crius each have a seat at the table. A few Peacekeepers sit off to the side, sipping wine. A few of the Mentors are conspicuously missing.

And Wesker's throne sits at the head of the table; it's made of the head of the dragon that destroyed so much of Disneyland and slaughtered so many Tributes. The head has been dried, the tongue replaced with a plush velvet seat and back the color of blood. The eyes have been replaced with glass that stares at each side of the room. The fangs, however, remain intact.

Downstairs, the rest of the Tributes and their Escorts and Stylists can partake in a more Disney-themed affair. Everything is still sleek, and tends to veer more towards Maleficent and Jafar then Cinderella and Ariel, but the punch bowl is Mickey Mouse-shaped. There's a dance floor, and a string quartet, and all sorts of lavish foods on tables with red cloth. It's a night for mingling, at least.

[OOC Note: Part one of this is going up tonight in the first two subthreads. Part two will be edited into the last two subthreads tomorrow evening; you'll see why. Go forth and mingle! Tributes from downstairs can go say hello to the Victor, although they won't get long before the Peacekeepers escort them back down.]

She wrinkled her nose, she didn't really have any opinions on the name she had been given outside of confusion that they had given her one at all.

"Patricia?" She didn't think that was horrible, it was less stupid than Pepper she thought.

"It do no be being too bad. I did no be having a name before but some people can no be speaking silence."

"It's old fashioned where I'm from."

"Your parents didn't give you one when you were born?" It was a little hard to understand Pruna, but Pepper was hoping that she was right with trying to figure out what she was saying.
knifewithnoname: (thoughtful)

Pruna sighed and shook her head, "Did no never be having parents." She explained, patiently enough for Pruna. "My guardians did no be giving me a name, so I do no really be needing one."

"Oh... I'm sorry." She bit her lip a moment. "Well you have one now, and friends right?"

"They did be needing to be entering me onto their computers." She told her, like she had any clue what a computer was. "So they did be giving me one."

She nodded slowly, "I do be having Sandy." Though she was an ally, not a friend.

"I haven't met Sandy yet. But it's good you have someone you can turn to."
knifewithnoname: (much thinking)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-06 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
She wrinkled her nose at that, not sure that she would need to turn to Sandy. "Do you be having any friends?"

"Back home yes. Here... I don't know yet." She nibbled at a cookie.
knifewithnoname: (oh really?)

"Friends do be being stupid anyways, you should be having allies though, or you will be dying quickly."

[personal profile] wantsajetpack 2013-07-07 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Friends you know wont stab you in the back to save themselves though."
knifewithnoname: (are you sure now?)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-07 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
They might be doing. [If they had any sense]

[personal profile] wantsajetpack 2013-07-11 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Not the right kind of friends. At least not without a really good reason.
knifewithnoname: (oh really?)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-12 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
[She wrinkled her nose and shrugged, what did she know about friends after all. Maybe they were that stupid] And do life and death no be being a good reason?

[personal profile] wantsajetpack 2013-07-13 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
I'd guess, if a close friend was in pain... And it would be better to take them out I might do it, but I wouldn't be happy about it. [Sorry Pruna, Pepper's still a little innocent at the idea of having to kill someone at all.]
knifewithnoname: (oh really?)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-16 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
[More wrinkling of the nose] Or of there did no be enough food for you both.
wantsajetpack: (fragile)

[personal profile] wantsajetpack 2013-07-16 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Then that would be a bit of a mercy kill don't you think?
knifewithnoname: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-18 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
It do still be killing. Mercy do just be a word people do be using to be making themselves feel better about it.

Usually with a situation like that though... there's morose. [Though she didn't think this place liked it when emotion for the victims was shown...]
knifewithnoname: (curiousity)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-24 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
So as long as you do be feeling sad then killing do be being alright?
wantsajetpack: (Default)

[personal profile] wantsajetpack 2013-07-27 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
If you don't start enjoying it... yeah
knifewithnoname: (oh really?)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-07-27 10:21 am (UTC)(link)
That do be being stupid.
