(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.

Costumes back at home? She must be from one of those superhero worlds. she'd spoken to a few people here who had some of them milling about. They might not have them in her world, but they did have a ton of comic books. Comic books that she never read, but she got the general idea of it all.

"More like clawed at each other while doing some great ninja moves, but yeah, close enough to punching." Cindy shrugged. "In the grand scheme of things, it wasn't much, but you were my first fight in the arenas, so for me it was pretty memorable."

It was memorable for her. She'll remember it always. And so will the reruns of the last arena, who didn't love watching two girls fight? At least she didn't lose her pack.

"Clawed each other." Venus smirks, a more fully-formed picture of the conflict in question starting to form in her head - Catwoman costume and all. "I can appreciate a good pun."

She runs a hand through her hair, artificially straightened and then tousled by a team of stylists who just adore having a subject so comfortable with getting made over. Having seen how she kept from looking disheveled in the Arena with charcoal-makeup and elaborate braids, their tactic lately has changed to a sort of 'casual beauty' style. Hiding the effort in the facade of naturalness.

"I'd say I hope I didn't go too hard on you, but I'm pretty sure you gave me a shiner."
