Inside The Arena.
The rains seem to come a little harder every day. Last a little longer. Though temperatures throughout the arena tend to average in the 80s, some of the more recent rains have dropped the temperature so drastically we've been able to see the tributes' breath! And would you look at that?! The most recent high tide appears to have officially flooded the area surrounding the fountain that has had miraculous healing effects on anyone who has drank from it.
The next tide that comes in will submerge the fountain area entirely, but we are more interested in what appears to be thick black smoke venting into the air in that area. Rest assured this is no ordinary smoke viewers, but a cloud of nano machines. Programmed to seek out any and all active tributes inside the arena, anyone who breathes in these vapors will feel the effects almost instantly.
Neural pain inhibitors will drastically limit or completely extinguish the sensation of pain in tributes. The more vapor you breathe in, the longer the effects last. Vapors are most dense in the area surrounding the epicenter, dissipating the further away from the source you get. Effects can last anywhere from 24 to 78 hours depending on dosage and exposure. Experts estimate a time frame of 36 hours before the smoke will have spread island wide.

CAPITOL UPDATE
Current Weather: Cool throughout the week; chance of snow Wednesday and Thursday; average of 42*
Curfew: Not Strictly Enforced
Restricted Areas: None.
Life In The Capitol.
Festive feasts abound throughout the city this coming week. After all, why should celebrations be limited to only one day?! Stylists have been booked for weeks, and designers are working their poor fingers to the bone trying to make sure everyone looks their best.
Make sure that you've discussed all your options with your personal caterer, I hear they have had a shortage of lobster from District 4 these past few weeks and NO ONE wants to have to wait in line at the market for.. well, anything, of course.
CLOSING CREDITS
The Compound: Open to all, until announced otherwise.
The Red Button: You can always push it. You know you want to.
Sponsorship Programme: Death Buyouts & Sponsor Gifts
Arena Plotting: Hash it out, yo!
Capitol Plotting: Scheming is our game ;).
Remaining Tributes: 22 tributes remain.
Questions: Ask away.
The Games: Out Of Character.
We know that a lot of you are participating in NaNo this month, and the holiday season is... pretty much here at this point, and in turn that has resulted in a lot of hiatus. We just ask that you continue to be courteous and keep both the mod team and your fellow players up to date about it! :) With that in mind, we would like to remind everyone to make sure you have poked around the most recent mid-arena activity check post! You don't have to tally up your credits or anything, we just want to make sure we're all on the same page. Just let us know you're with us!
And I really hate to jump into passive aggressive mode with this message, but I am pretty sure I am still missing some tribute character information from a couple of you. If your tribute character hasn't been officially killed off yet (there is a list of who has died at the top of each death roll every week) and if they aren't listed on the list of remaining tributes in the thread below (it's in alphabetical order by first name) that means I DO NOT have your information! Please please please make sure you have replied with all the relevant information to the taken character page, as soon as possible. That is where I pull all your characters' final scores and districts and head shots from... and my numbers just aren't adding up to what they should be and I don't want to be leaving people out! :)
P.S. Catching Fire is out, and it is awesome!!!
Capitol Plotting
Azula and Sandy
Sandy: Is laying low after her death in the arena. She's going to start training with Mindy and is always wandering around sticking her nose into things?
Hawkeye Pierce
But let's be real, the guy's straight from the early 1950s. He's going to be confused for a hella long time, especially considering he'll be a stubborn ass for... a while? Idk, until someone talks enough sense into him. Actually I lied, he can be a stubborn ass for a long time and talking sense into him will have to be a regular thing.
That said, first order of business will be attempting to escape. What I mean here is, he'll be in a bit of a shock after finding out he's alive again and he'll stroll out into the city... and just kind of keep walking until he inevitably gets escorted back. It'll be his excuse for going sightseeing. Second order of business is to get angry at everything and everyone. He'll be especially angry about the weather.
There's a lot of things for him to do in the Capitol so I'm really looking forward to putting him there, and for the sake of plotting I'll say 'anything and everything!' because Hawkeye can go from a drunk and brooding mess to literally painting the town polka dot in a heartbeat. Hit me up if you want anything specific with him and I'm always looking for new CR!
Re: Hawkeye Pierce
And then run into all kinds of stuff that makes him panic, including troll fans that throw the glow in the dark paint on him. And then he'll be all lost because he can't read signs and hide somewhere. Then I think he might do an accidental post on the network and maybe Hawkeye can realize he's a panicked mess and we can do a log where he finds him and brings him back to the training center from there? (And does the thing with showing the wigs are harmless because that'll be hysterical.) And also he might have to help yell at people to back off because a big part of Guy's problems with the Capitol are going to be that they just do not respect his personal space at all and they're going to be gross and fetishy and ooh lemme feel those pecs.
How's that sound? I just really want to give you an opportunity to have Hawkeye going full blast at them.
no subject
Given Hawkeye's going to have been in the Capitol a while by the time Guy is done in, I he'd already have at least an inkling of knowledge of the new fashion trends starting up and how Guy's become a quick fan favorite. It won't go over well with him and he'll be set and ready to tell off some Big Wigs. If the Training Center's not personal enough, I'm sure the two can find a more private place to sort their wits and hug it out like men.
