4th Design [voice/action]

[threadthefire]

[Cinna's normally genial tone seems a bit thin today as he delivers the following announcements.]

Cast for the current production, please see me as soon as possible so we can do fittings. Additionally, Miss Rosella, if you'd like to stop by I have some samples for you to look over.

[Action]

[Throughout most of the day, when he's not with customers he's been sitting silently in the back, threading the day's fortune through his fingers. The cookie remains crumbled on the counter, uneaten. Should you stop by, you may find him lost in thought and have to call his name a few times to get an answer.]

Do you? Oh, how nice! And perhaps we can even take care of both at once, since I'm in the play, too.

"In a grander sense, none of us do, trapped by the whims of this place and isolated from our homes and our true callings." The fortune is tossed aside as Cinna stands, a slight smile. "But you're talking on a more day-to-day matter, aren't you?"

He heads to a worktable, strewn with large sheets of paper with drawings on them. Motioning for her to join him he waves at the sheets. "I could use some help this afternoon, if you're looking for work."

And truth be told, he can use the distraction. While certain he understands the meaning of the fortune he had in his fingers, it's not something he wants to dwell on overlong and helping Katniss help him would be a welcome task.

I hope it doesn't come to that. I hope whatever's planned gets you all out in time.

Not something that struck your fancy, Mr Harris?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Ah, Miss Lucy. How are you today?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a perfect arrangement. When would you like to come by?

ll voice

[perspectiveguy.livejournal.com]

Not really a reader-guy, no.

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

I'm well. I got a fortune that says I'll meet a dragon...I think, at least. How are you?

ll voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

That's a shame, it's not too bad, actually.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

A dragon? How interesting. I'm just keeping myself busy at work.

The play?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

You make clothes, right?

I don't know if it's such a dragon or someone who simply acts like one.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm free most anytime, really, so whenever would be best for you! I'm sure you must be very busy, and I'd hate to impose.

I don't know all the exact details of it, but I trust Haymitch. It's just a matter of surviving the existing dangers until the signal comes.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Ah, survival. What do you think your odds are?

[protects-her.livejournal.com]

Are they in my favor, you mean?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Yes. I do like to make my bets, after all.

Re: ll voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I do. And very well, I might add.

...why would someone act like a dragon?

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow afternoon?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Oh, you know, greedy, ill-mannered...things like that.

They put bows and tridents in the Cornucopia. So long as we don't run int--don't encounter any more force fields and keep our distance from the tributes from One and Two, we'll be all right.

So if you're betting on us, I expect you'll win them.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Ah, a metaphorical dragon.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Of course, that'd be just fine! I'm looking forward to it already.

I just won't reap the benefits.
