[This is Cinna.
This is Cinna reading the network. It's silent as the realization finally dawns on him.
This is Cinna dropping the network device and the sound of his receding footsteps and a shout, barely heard before the door slams shut.]


Rue? Finnick!

[The device remains silent before it times out, only to click on again, much later. This time you can see Cinna, sitting in his living room, deceptively calm.]

Greetings, City. If I may, a moment of your time.

It's come to my attention that a rather peculiar Game is being played today. It's a popular one back home, and I simply can't resist playing along so tell me, should one want to sponsor one of our noble and talented Tributes, who should I talk to?

And if you're interested in sponsoring anyone, I have several suggestions I'd like to make, you won't be sorry.

After all, some bets never change.

[ooc: Back-dated to early this morning, just after Katniss' post. Also, he responses might be strange and vague - he's going into Capitol mode and you just don't scream about rescuing people in public at times like these.]

Everyone has their entertainments.

Ah, but to some it is. And they, apparently are in charge today.

What about getting them out of there?

Day's like this, it's not wise to speculate. Unless you're placing bets on the winners.

That's always a possibility, of course, but I'm sure the Gamemakers have something in mind to deter that.

Just because they're gods doesn't mean they can't be challenged. [pause] But you sound like you know more about this. What's going on?

I wouldn't dare. They need help, not wagers on winners.

They're called the Hunger Games back home. A pair of Tributes, one male, one female from each district sent to compete in the Games. Last one living wins.

[Yeah, he doesn't get it.]

Why? [What's the point?]

Then by all means, pick your Tribute and pay to sponsor.

It's the Capitol's way to remind the Districts what they owe.

How do I do that, then? Kids like Rue shouldn't be having to deal with things like this.

That's what I'm trying to discover. How to sponsor.

Dunno 'bout you, but I got a couple'a Oranges on that thing in the blue armor to survive.

[Ginny's voice comes through in a hiss, like she's working on staying undetected.]

D'you have any idea of how many are stuck in here?

[Whatever that means, it doesn't sound good.]

Do you know where they are?

Back home, it's always an even number, here, who can tell?

...are you in the Arena?

It has to be somewhere large, I imagine, although the Deities have tricks available that the Gamemakers back home don't have.

No, I'm in the library.

[Okay, she can't keep a rein on her temper right now, sorry Cinna. A rather explosive sigh, then she continues, more apologetic.]

Sorry. Yes. Yes, I've been in here since... Merlin knows. I've never seen a curse like it, it's absurd.
