Round 03. [Text]
What are things that pre-collapse children did for fun between the ages of 12-18.
The Collapse: During the 2nd attempted occupation of the countries of Iraq, Iran, and the middle east the United States efforts to enforce a world-wide dictatorship with themselves at the head were met with resistance. Nuclear retaliation by the countries of the United Arab Emirates and their allies along with dwindling resources led to the dissolution of the congress at NORAD and any attempts to unite Humanity.
Occupation was considered a necessary evil due to the wildfire devastation that destroyed most of the western coast of the continental united states as well as the earthquakes that split the country. The capitol, harvesting the brightest minds from the think-tank known as Hollywood brought them to NORAD and inland to create a shining utopia of creative thought and ideas.
Due to the greatness of the people brought from the government think-tank Hollywood, they were able to bring back several things and bring a degree of normalacy to displaced refugees who flocked into the areas eventually known as districts.
Basically when everything blew up and the great ones from Hollywood founded the capitol. What did children do for fun.
[PRIVATE TO CASHMERE. Video.]
[Cato has a half-healed cut over his eye] My warden died for me. [He's not sure how he feels about this at all and he wants reassurance it was a bad thing.]
[ooc: Yes folks. Cato's world was founded by HOLLYWOOD~ and reality TV. because when the world ends you're going to grab all the actors and actress but honestly how else do you explain a roman-esque society founded on high fashion?]

Re: [video | private]
Like Hollywood didn't save us. [They did. they had to have.] Stupid.
He tried to. [And here Cato looks uncomfortable] He mentioned something called the high guard and talked about how that's what he did.
It reminded me of the Peace Keeper Oath.

[She's not looking forward to more questions. One woman already knows she participated in the games... And the people she fought against or with in the arena were well aware of her skills.]
He did it to manipulate you into cooperating with him, Cato. The Wardens here are no better than the inmates, playing their stupid little games.
You owe him nothing. He was doing his job.
[video | private]
I just wanted them to stop..stop judging me. And you. And the games. The games are important. Like they were to those...those things.
[His eyes widen. He doesn't nod.] You think it was a ploy?
[video | private]
They're going to judge us anyways. The games are extremely important to the structure of the Capitol.... Those things? Were in it merely for the sport...
[She shrugs.] I don't know... but I wouldn't be surprised if it were.... Don't let him trick you.

Meet me on the deck in an hour if you can so we can compare notes... I don't like communicating over these things.

[and in an hour Cato is up on deck in his tribute jacket trying not to look conspicuous.]

As soon as she saw Cato, she walked over to join him, hooking her arm with his.]
There's a quiet spot just over here...
Re: Spam
District Two was not like that at all. Shaking his head he followed her and frowned.]
I don't like this place at all.
no subject
Cashmere was especially comfortable with touching, she had to be. She ran her hand over his arm, in what really may have been an attempt to soothe him... even if it didn't go over that way.]
I don't either... The games... we can't play them like the Capitol's since we don't know how they're played.
