(no subject)

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.

Garrus had no idea who exactly his team was, most were human from what he gathered from the names he'd been given but that wasn't reassuring for him. Being a late addition to the roster only meant that it would be more fun in getting down to the mission that they were being sent on.

But he really wished that he wasn't going in as part of the strike team. Still, her knew it was better to try to know the faces of the people you'd be staring death in the face with.

"So, has anyone seen the targets we're going to scope out yet?"

"If ya can call these seen," Remy remarks, slapping over a very blurry picture of... something. Could probably pass for a giant headed Big Foot.

"Either the folks takin' them pictures were scared ta death, or those things are fast."

Looking at the pictures and after having spent many, many hours pouring over semi-blurry security feeds and oddly snapped photos the most Garrus could make out were these things were not human. The were big, whatever they were, and fast, if the angle of the photos was to be believed.

"I would say both, from the angles and the blurs I'd say whatever these creatures are they're fast and big. Neither of those are good things to hear. This should be fun." His tone was dry, they were just as blind going into this as he had been on so many other missions. The real key here was being able to survive.

Gambit shrugged, taking back the picture to look at it again.

"Sure it'll be. Keep us on our toes at least. I'm Gambit."

"Garrus Vakarian. So, tunnels. I guess I should be asking what your talents are for fighting in small, dark, enclosed areas and how many others are with us on this."

Not that Garrus was happy about this, he liked long range attacks, but he could hold his own in close combat it just wasn't his preferred method.

Remy shrugged. "I know some martial arts and I can light up that tunnel if it's true that powers are comin' back on. Plus, I'm good at stealth jobs, but that's only as good as our loudest man. What 'bout you?"
