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.]

Ian was pleased to hear that, that she hadn't been there but he sighed when his attempt at lightning the mood failed.

"I didn't mean..." He shrugged, "Doesn't matter okay, I meant no disrespect."

Wow. Keep finding old tags. 8|

"...It's okay," she whispered, voice a little soft. "I'm just worried about people."

"Yeah." He frowned, "It's got to be tough just watching it." He's not actually being sarcastic, he's the type of person who would rather be fighting than standing to the side watching those he cares about struggle.

Unless it was Lip failing at fight club matches because that was mostly hilarious.
andproper: (talking)

"People live past them, now," she pointed out. "They didn't used to. And we had to watch them, then." So it's better now than it used to be, in other words. Which isn't to say that it's good at all.

"Yeah, Blaine said." They were able to heal them. Didn't seem much better though, not for those involved anyways. "You know many people going in this time?"

Surely he could help at least one of them, at least one less person for her to worry about.

"Maybe..." she mused. "A lot of them have been disappearing..."
wantwhatiwant: winchesterway (yeah whatever)

wow and then I get names muddled with characters I dont even play

[personal profile] wantwhatiwant 2013-10-16 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
"Disappearing?" That didn's sound good, "What do you mean by that?"
andproper: (sad)

DX And then I disappear forever and a day. 8U

"The people the Capitol doesn't bring back..." She says that softly, so quietly.
wantwhatiwant: winchesterway (yeah whatever)

[personal profile] wantwhatiwant 2013-12-01 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Those they don't... why wouldn't they bring them back?" Wasn't the whole point that they found this all entertaining.

"I'm not sure... Maybe they want us to still be scared..."

[personal profile] wantwhatiwant 2013-12-13 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Maybe, seems like a complicated way of doing it though." In Ian's opinion people here were scared enough already.
andproper: (uncertain)

[personal profile] andproper 2013-12-21 12:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"Maybe..." it is the capitol, though. The Capitol can be complicated and strange sometimes. She doesn't really get them.

[personal profile] wantwhatiwant 2013-12-21 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah." He shrugged. "Well, hope you have a good night." She probably had other people to talk to.

HOLIDAY WORK WEEKS HAVE NOW ENDED. 8U

"Goodbye..." she responded. She did have a lot of people to meet.
