Arena 06 - Happy
The last few hours before the Arena have a strangely stifled quality, as if half the people they interact with are trying very hard not to laugh. Maybe it's the costumes, the fancy gowns and velvet tunics, the short capes. Or maybe it's their destination.
The round courtyard to which the tubes bring them could not be more different from the last arena. Though outside the circle of pedestals, disrepair and neglect has taken over the roads and buildings, the garden inside the circle could not be more perfectly sculpted. Every hedge is a smooth, rounded shape. Flowers bloom brightly in concentric circles of insane color. The Cornucopia sits gleaming and golden, and just in front of its mouth, a bronze statue of a man and a mouse stands amid the heap of supplies.
Aside from it, there is a hush. No flies in the flowers, no wind in the trees. It is a cool day, with the comfortable chill of early spring and noon's short shadows.
Outside the circle, behind the tributes on the northern side, a castle looms. Through its wide gate, devastation everywhere, but it, itself, is shining clean, glowing pink and blue. Opaque windows look down from the heights of it, as uncaring as every hidden camera the veterans know is there.
Music starts as the countdown nears the bottom, a whimsical, dramatic tune.
And with the final note, the gong rang out, and a firework shot into the sky from the castle's peak, bright enough to burst redly across the sky above them all. Let the Games begin.
((OOC NOTES: IF YOUR CHARACTER HAS POWERS THE CAPITOL HAS NERFED, make sure you are on this list.
And everyone really should review the arena post. Because there's a little more to play with than you might think.
And please remember to add your character's tag to each post they're in.))

It's fiiiine~
He was so absorbed in trying to figure out where he was going that he wasn't exactly looking where he was going, promptly hitting a tree. Adachi swore under his breath as he stumbled away, rubbing his forehead; oh perfect, Mr. Elite Detective ladies and gentlemen.

A silly mistake but, it had looked ridiculous. She gripped the shoes tight in case he had heard.

"...who's there?"

"You do be letting me past." He wasn't armed she had checked that, so hopefully if he did decide to fight she could fend him off long enough to run.

"Y-yeah, of course," he managed to get out, kneeling down so he was at her level. "Don't worry, kiddo; I'm not out to kill anyone if I can avoid it."
no subject
"Well then you will be dying." She said casually, because really not trying to kill anyone in a fight to the death... that was just stupid.
no subject
"I don't plan on it," he said, "but I'm not going to kill someone if I can avoid it."

It really irritated her how many things she didn't know, she was supposed to be smart, supposed to be trained yet it seemed every few seconds she saw something or heard a word that she had no idea what it was.
