(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.

"Don't be so morbid, dude," Howard says, but it doesn't matter. The words hit home and nestle somewhere in his intestines, twisting and tightening into hurt.

"I don't know what that means." He answered back, completely oblivious to what his words had done to Howard.

"Just wonder what happens if you die for good here. Do you think they have their own heaven or hell?"

"Now's not really the time for a theosophy lesson," Howard says, a sneer flashing over his lips. He hates all the God talk. It's really just a way Orc fuels his depression, all for some stupid religion that clearly is just, just, just bullshit.

Orc frowned. While not the most observant rock on the playground he knew Howard's feelings on his religion. And he tolerated the bitterness because he knew on some level Howard was probably right.

"So what then? Just wait for the mission?"

"You go off and get ready. I need to get familiar with the radios." He pats Orc on the shoulder. "See you on the other side, big guy."

He nodded and turned back around to scan the crowd.

"Here's hoping you don't. The other side probably isn't much better."
