Name: Effie Trinket Fandom: The Hunger Games A little bit about you (as non-spoilery as possible): How lovely to meet you all. I'm Effie but I'm sure you know that already *giggles* I live in the Capitol and it's fabulous you should really visit if you've ever been. Unless your from a district of course. My favorite thing about a person is manners. It never hurts to be polite. Conversational style: She rambles, fancies herself very high class and above everyone else, cannot deal with people who have no manners. Anything else: That is MAHOGANY!

*rolls her eyes with her back turned, before turning to face Effie*
Hi. *holds hand out to shake and see if she gets bar readings* I'm Diana. I have no idea what you mean when you say districts...*plays dumb to see if someone planned the FAYZ*
*eagerly takes Diana's hand* Wonderful to meet you, dear! My aren't you just gorgeous. Such a beautiful facial structure you have, far too delicate to be outlying. *claps hands in front of you and eyes you for a moment* District Four perhaps? One? All the prettiest girls always seem to come from One *huffs* Cannot imagine why I wasn't chosen to work with them, seems hardly fair.
You look nervous, child, are you alright? There's nothing to worry about. From what I understand, there aren't even reapings here!
Very nice to meet you too. *gets no reading from the woman, is pretty sure she's a whack job though, keeping friends close and enemies closer, she lies* Distract Four. How did you guess?
*smiles at the compliments*
It seems an absolute waste of someone with your *looks over make-up and outfit, thinks it's hideous, but doesn't let it show* talents.
Reapings? I've never heard of a reaping before.
I guess I'm just a little concerned about where here is. *gives a nervous laugh*
Oh I knew it! *claps once excitedly* Your hair color. And you just look like you could swim an ocean. They're strong willed over there you know? I completely agree! *smooths down dress* Wasted on district 12.
*clears throat* But we must make the best of things right!
Are you hungry? Would you care to join me for some chocolate covered strawberries? You're such a polite young lady, too rare to find these days, I rather think we could be great friends.
*the chair feels so plush, it's been a while since she's had creature comforts*
My parents sent me to a special school when I was younger. To train me to be prepared for the world. That's what they said anyway. *hates, having been sent away and is coloring the truth* They definitely are! Very thrilled! And so I am. I'm so ready to experience all of it.
Isn't it wonderful?! Truly just magnificent what they can come up with these days, and so tastefully decorated. I don't mind riding around in this train at all. 200 miles per hour in motion and you can barely feel a thing! Quite fantastic, really.
A special school? *hums while she pours herself some juice* You mean the career academy I assume? What special skill did you pick up there? Surely you've heard of Finnick Odair in that case, yes? The boy with the trident. Stunning to watch. Have you ever used one?
Wow, this really moves that fast? You'd never be able to tell. It feels like we're sitting perfectly still.
*smiles and nods* The career academy. That's the one. Umm, how to befriend the much more powerful than me. *laughs as if she's told a joke, even if that's most of how she survives where she is, to buy time, so she can figure out the right thing to say*
He is amazing to watch. *she can imagine, thought the only interaction she's had with tridents are in The little Mermaid or ancient pictures of King Neptune, or Poseidon*
*shakes head* Me? No. they're quite heavy.
Knives. I use knives. *hopes the woman won't ask to see*
*tilts head to the side and considers this* Well I suppose a social game couldn't hurt. It's always worth a try although you might be killed before you have the chance to befriend them. I bet that helps your interview though, Caesar will have an absolute ball with you, oh I can't wait to see that.
And knives as well! Very impressive, I'm sure you're quite skilled. I don't know anything about that business myself. That's far from my department. Normally they bring me in to escort you all around and teach you how to speak properly but I'm quite happy to see you have that worked out for yourself!
You might be surprised the kind of sympathy you can engender with a social game. Until all the cards have to be played and it becomes each man for themselves. I can be quite charming. *gives a toothy grin*
I can't wait to speak to Caesar myself. Some others seem so stiff.
Oh, I absolutely am. If I can't get sympathy, I can probably get fear. The ability to manipulate, is quite possibly anyone's strongest weapon.
*smiles*
Well, you do an amazing job. Here, talking to you, it's quite pleasant. *eats a strawberry, taking her time, trying to show the same deference for the food that Effie does*
I still have no idea where I'm going, so I'm counting on you. Don't lead me astray.
You live in Washington? I've sure as hell never heard of you? Or seen you....you look worse than Frank after a night of heavy drinking at a Halloween party.
*huffs a little but bites back a remark about how rude it is to interrupt someone's conversation*
I most certainly am not. I have never even heard of such a place but it must be dreadful *eyes you up and down* And I know nothing of this Frank but I assure you my appearance is more than likely heavenly in comparison.
Well then, where from? I'm going to say...ten. Yes, that would be my guess. Ten. Perhaps twelve although unlikely with your...stature. But you must be outlying. So whatever are you doing here?
Well look at you... Pink's not really my thing, but I mean, good for you.
I'm Ruby, by the way.
Where's the Capitol? I've never been outside of Maine, but I'd love to hear about it. Does everyone there dress like you? I bet it's like a real fancy party all the time.

I'm starving. I don't feel like I've eaten a proper meal in far too long. *shrugs* I do my best. And I'm sure we can make wonderful friends.
