(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.

Gambit looks up and gives the kid a genuine smile. He might have been suspicious of everyone, but that didn't mean he had to show it.

"Gambit," he nodded to the boy. "Anything you know that these papers hadn't said yet?"

"Nice to meet you Gambit." He smiled and then shook his head, "No, unfortunately, they haven't given us very much information at all..."

Great. He sighed. "Well, if ya got a plan, don't be afraid ta share with the class."
savedbyasong: (if you're sure...)

"I will... when I have a plan... I'm just trying to talk to everyone, find out their strengths."
rat_des_marais: (frown)

Remy nodded... then thought of something when the kid mentioned strengths. He shifted in his seat.

"... Say, homme, are there other boys here with, uh... special abilities? Some that they maybe can't use no more since showin' up here?"

"I think so..." It's strange for him, but not too strange. He knew that things he could only describe as magic existed before coming to this place. "They said that they were turning them back on, for those fighting."

Slowly, Remy gave a big smile.

"Well then, I got some abilities that might end up bein' accounted for, assumin' they turn mine back on, too. I blow stuff up." Generally speaking.

Though, it did intrigue him that they could apparently turn on and off their powers. That means there's something controlling it which means it can be destroyed. But later. One thing at a time for now.
savedbyasong: (there could be another way)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-10-08 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
Shion nodded making a note. Blowing things up was sure to be useful. Especially at a distance. "That's a good skill to have."

Shion couldn't imagine having a power to blow things up, surely it was dangerous. If he lost control there was nothing to take off him, they couldn't just remove his weapon.

You didn't want to see Remy when he lost control. No one did. Sort of how his childhood went.

"Merci, homme. Jus' hope it actually helps here."
savedbyasong: (more smiles)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-10-13 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"I hope so." He smiled again, "I'll do my best to help you tomorrow." He smiled again, "And if I learn any more information I will tell you right now."
