Warnings/Notes| Guy's not the type to wantonly kill but he'll try to spear someone's face in if they go after him and is very aggressive when provoked.

Being in a place that presented people like him as something long dead made him feel like he was already dust... )

WHAT| The planetarium gets zapped
WHERE| Planetarium
WHEN| Thursday of Week 2
WARNINGS| Death and electricity!

The IMAX theater's selection of movies today seems to be decidedly weather-based. First it begins with a piece about global warming that was probably filmed in the early 2000's, then it goes to tornadoes, and then to tsunamis, and so on, so on. It ends on a delightful film about electrical storms, called "Shocking Stories".

About an hour after it ends, everyone in the planetarium is subject to some obnoxious, but otherwise harmless, static electricity that makes their hair stand up some. The air feels humid and thick, although not terribly warm.

The first bolt of lightning seems to lance straight from the planet Mars and fries a telescope inside the structure.

18th-Jan-2014 02:35 pm - ARENA 09 - THE MUSEUM
etcircenses: (Default)
The Tributes are woken up early for this Arena, and switched from whatever sleeping attire they're currently in to a set of pajamas, each designed for the individual in questions. Women wear onesies, and most of the men wear two-pieces, but other than that any similarities are at random - the outfits are in all sorts of colors and patterns.

The floor of the helicopter taking them to their Arena location, and of the underground entrance to the tubes that hoist them to the surface, will feel cold under their bare feet.

Rather than bringing them to sunlight, like the tubes have in the past, instead the Tributes are presented to a dark concrete ceiling in a badly-lit parking lot. Fluorescent lights do little to illuminate the cavernous space.

The countdown begins, announced as if from far away.

The Cornucopia, a ghastly thing carved from stone and concrete, sits at the center of a pattern of white and yellow lines reminiscent of spots for parked cars. The painted lines create a sort of spoked wheel, providing lanes for the Tributes leading to the prizes at the center. Some of the more unfortunate Tributes will find the concrete architecture has placed pillars in their lanes.

Six parked cars lie around the outskirts of the huge lot, barely visible in the dim lighting. Glowing exit signs on two opposite sides of the chamber announce where Tributes should go to escape the bloodbath. Elevator doors are perched beneath them.

The gong rings out, and the countdown's voice announces "the Arena is now open". The Games have begun.
