Who| Everyone
What| A chance for the teams to meet, mingle, and, lets be honest, for goodbyes to be said.
Where| The common area.
When| Evening before the attack, about a day after Creuntus' network announcement.
Warnings/Notes| Time is going to be a little more wonky then normal, if you haven't noticed. They will be going out to attack "tomorrow" but that thread will not, likely, be posted tomorrow, to give people time to play in this one, etc.

There is food and drink, plenty of it, but no decoration, and it is clear this "party" is no sort of celebration. There is the small spattering of Peacekeepers still in the Capitol, those not on duty at the edge of the boundary.

A long table at the front has a set up for each team. Everyone has a folder with who is in their team, who is watching their team, a list of the various weapons they will have. On the list is a flame thrower, a handful of small explosives, and an automatic weapon for each team member. There are no weapons laid out for the Tributes to handle, however - those were waiting for them elsewhere, for when the mission truly started. Nor does the folder mention that the weapons all switch off outside of the combat area, but it's also not a secret, or a surprise.

Each folder also includes the rather useless stats and images they have of the creatures-the photos are blurry, the stats mainly stack up to "they are very deadly" and a collection of the various bits of information put forth by other tributes who seem to know more then the Capitol. Last, a detailed map of both the neighborhood, and the tunnels for them to study.

Another table has folders for the intel, with much of the same information. Last, a third table is set up for those that are staying at home. Those folders contain some basic first aid information, and a list with what sort of basic medical supplies and food stuff is in the training center.

Each table set up has an Avox or two to hand out the folders. Creuntus is no where to be seen, and you would be lucky to catch any of her team. She knows where she doesn't want to be. The furniture has been dragged to facilitate the conversation of small to medium sized groups. Say, about the size of a team and their Intel.

Pruna | Team 3

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-09-28 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Pruna was reading her folder, reading about the aliens they were going to be fighting. They did not sound or look like alien trolls, or andelite. They were more like monsters but not like the monsters of her world. She read carefully and when she was finished read it again.

She looked around to see who she had been put on a team with, not Sandy, and that made her mad.

"Hello again." Summoner greeted her solemnly, this wasn't really the right time to be making friends.

"It looks like I'm going to be directing you. Do you have any questions? Because I have a few for you."

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-09-29 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
Pruna looked up and nodded at the troll looking serious. It had said in the information that there would be people directing them over headsets (whatever those were, she assumed technologies and just hoped someone stopped to explain).

"I do be having a few but I can be answering yours first." Pruna at least knew how mission briefings went, even though this was the largest she had ever been to, and the first where she was being directed by people not her guardians.

It's for the best that she isn't going to see him with headphones on his pointy troll ears, it will be hard to take him seriously that way.

"Fair enough. I was wondering what sort of combat you're more capable in. It will help me organize things if I have some idea of what my teams can do."
knifewithnoname: (thinking)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-09 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"I can be using a dagger, I can also be fighting hand to hand. I do be being better trained at killing with no fighting though, but I do no be thinking that will be working here." Unless they managed to develop some poison or such that could kill the aliens. She didn't really want to get close enough to assassinate them, with their skin eating blood.

"I did be learning how to be throwing daggers too but that do be being a new weapon."

Cindy had also read her folder, and was now going around, making sure to find her apparent teammates. She'd take some time to check in on a few people beforehand, but it was better to know who would have your back in a fight.

Or who she would be watching the backs of. "What I was thinking the other day was that what we really needed here? More monster search parties," Cindy said wryly. "Pruna, right? I'm Cindy."
knifewithnoname: (yeah well)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-09-30 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Well you did be getting one, you should be being careful what you do be wishing for." Pruna wrinkled her nose, not understanding that it was a joke. "Cindy, I will be remembering that." She nodded, "You do be being in my group right? Can you be fighting?" Practical as ever, Pruna did not want useless people on her team.

[personal profile] undercoverprincess 2013-10-05 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, missed the mark on that joke. But she'd try it just to put a little peace of mind out there, but clearly this girl was already fine. She was young. Really young. Cindy was a little worried about it, actually.

"Yes, I'm in your group." She glanced at the table for a moment. "And I can fight. Not usually a fan of guns, but I've used plenty in my life. What about you, can you fight?"
knifewithnoname: (thinking)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-05 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes I can be fighting." She nodded, grinning as she did so. "But I did no never be using a gun before. They do no be existing in my world." She told her, even though she hated showing weakness it was important her teammates knew this.

[personal profile] undercoverprincess 2013-10-07 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
"Okay." Cindy nodded. "Thanks for telling me up front. Guns are fairly easy, it's point and pull a trigger, but I don't want some friendly fire going on."

She gave a grin, though. At least she had someone who knew what they were doing.

"What do you usually fight with?"
knifewithnoname: (interested)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-07 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
"I do be usually using daggers." She explained, grinning. "I did be learning how to be throwing them as well but I do no be very good at that." She was improving though, but she was better with a normal dagger.

[No. She got Barbara.

You remember Barbara, don't you Pruna?

You stabbed her. In the neck.

And also she's glaring at you.]
knifewithnoname: (oh I see)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-01 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh yes she remembers here. Have a tiny murder brat smirking at you.] Why do you be being in this team? You do be being a rubbish fighter.
acro_bat_ic: (annoyed)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-10-01 10:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ram knives into anyone's neck, lately?
knifewithnoname: (oh I see)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-01 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Not in the last few days, have you been being stupid enough to be being stabbed lately?
acro_bat_ic: (talking)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-10-03 10:47 am (UTC)(link)
Most people I help don't carry knives.
knifewithnoname: (oh I see)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-03 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
Well then they do be being stupid as well, people without weapons do be dying in the arena, they do no even be worth helping.
acro_bat_ic: (annoyed)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-10-03 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't exactly been in the arena, since you stabbed me in the neck.
knifewithnoname: (smiles)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-03 11:17 am (UTC)(link)
[She smirked again] Do you always be being a baby about dying?
acro_bat_ic: (angry)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-10-16 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
Do you always stab helpers in the neck?
knifewithnoname: (oh I see)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-10-16 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Only when they do be being stupid enough to be letting their guard down.
acro_bat_ic: (angry)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-11-24 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess you really can't trust anyone here.
knifewithnoname: (yeah well)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-12-02 09:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Pruna grinned] Congratulations, you do now be having as much knowledge as a baby.
acro_bat_ic: (annoyed)

[personal profile] acro_bat_ic 2013-12-13 12:09 pm (UTC)(link)
She narrowed her eyes, but didn't respond directly.

So what's the battle plan?
knifewithnoname: (yeah well)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2013-12-13 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
We do be killing the monsters, you do probably be dying. We do be needing to be meeting the others to be getting a proper plan.
