This is where tributes wait to be interviewed. Feel free to interact, peaceably of course, with other tributes. You will be called onto the stage when you are given a PM.

"I'm not killing anyone....." "Just keep moving foward. Get up and walk on your own legs. At least you have two good legs to walk on."
Edward Yatsumori District 10 Tribute Edward sat nervously waiting for his name to be called for his interview with Caesar Flickerman and he absolutely dreaded it. He hoped that he could just get it over with though he had never talked in front of a large crowd or been in front of one. He looked at his hands in his lap trembing with nerves. He was scared but kept it buried under a straight face keeping his fear hidden from the other tributes and he managed to slow his trembling as much as he could. Edward hoped his family would be watching and give him courage to keep himself alive and last to the end of the Games. Golden eyes peered down at his button up tan dress coat and white shirt underneath with his blue tie tucked into the coat. Amazingly he looked very good in this outfit and the nicest he ever looked in his life. He sat fiddling his thumbs waiting for his turn for the interview wondering what he was going to be asked."That's not what I do." Health: 100% Hunger: 10% How I am feeling: nervous and quiet. Love interest: not yet.

Sage Tyas
District 7
"Is there anyone I can help?"
Sage was standing near the wall. The few last districts didn't have to line up just yet. She let out a heavy sigh, she had been dreading this moment. The arena she could deal with, but talking in front of the entire nation, and being forced to pretend that everything was alright? No thank you! Sage looked around and noticed that a lot of other tributes where looking just a little nervous, despite how much they tried to hide it. She looked onto the stage and saw the girl from District 1 acting flirty and cute, she looked natural at it. She folded her arms across her flat stomach and looked across the tributes again. Her eyes landed on the boy from District 10. He looked so calm. 'He must have a really good strategy...' She thought sighing again.
Heath: 100% Hunger: 15% Love Interest: Not Yet Energy: 80% Thoughts: What could I possibly say?

Ҭɧɩɑ Ϩɱчȶɧ Thia leaned against the wall, tapping her notebook with her pen. She had just realized that the boy in the Marketplace, who bought her the expensive pastry was her enemy. Thia chewed her lip, knowing she'd get yelled at by her stylist for it. She hoped Caesar didn't ask her to speak, she practically lived like an avox. Thia tilted her hat up so it wasn't in her eyes and sighed. She looked onto the stage, watching the District 2 start the audition.Wearing.

"I'm not killing anyone....." "Just keep moving foward. Get up and walk on your own legs. At least you have two good legs to walk on."
Edward Yatsumori District 10 Tribute  He stared at his lap still trembling though managed to keep it to a minimum which was good because he didn't want to reveal his fear. He gently touched the locket under his shirt and closed his eyes and thought back to when he was home which gave him comfort but his nerves were still getting to him. Edward opened his eyes and quietly started to sing to himself to help with his nervousness and always reminded him of District 10 and his little brother Alexander. He stopped singing once he was mostly calm and listened to the interview, "Ok Ed you have to keep your nervousness hidden and just get it over with" he thought to himself, "When you go on stage just smile and look charming and confident." Edward looked more calmer and more confident though he adverted his eyes to his prothetic hand which rested on his lap, "I really hope I don't get asked about my arm" he mumbled to himself remembering the pain he was in though he recovered after getting his prothetic a year before people normally do."That's not what I do." Health: 100% Hunger: 10% How I am feeling: nervous and quiet. Love interest: not yet.

 Jack Blank District 3 Electroinics - From the beginning I drew pictures of the searching sun Blissfully denying what is instinct- - Since the beginning I’ve seen color But lately it’s been tainted With grays and under-glows- ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ Jack stared blankly at the screen trying to mentally prepare himself for the interview. The crowd already was rather fond of him dispite his intentionally low training score. It hadn’t been part of his strategy, but it didn’t seem like it would hurt him at all. He couldn’t deny that he did have some natural charm, it could most certainly be used in his favor.
He glanced around at the other tributes. They all seemed to want to stand out so much. What good would that do them in the arena when every other tribute knew who you were. No, that wasn’t his strategy. He couldn’t help his albanism, but to not stand out much seemed like it could be a blessing.
Jack knew that he was next up after the girl from his district. He prepared himself. His personality would have to go, it wouldn’t do for the crowd.
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ Feeling: unsure, trying to work out a strategy Where I am: Waiting room What I'm doing: checking out the other tributes Who I'm with: the other tributes Love interest: no one

* Hmmm, What can I create? *

* Is there any better way to help others? *
Astrid walked back into the waiting room feeling good with how her interview had went. Astrid saw Jack just starting to walk out. As she walked past him she winked kindly and said, "Good luck..." Into his ear, and continued walking into the back of the room. And she meant it, she wanted to win, yes, but if she didn't make it she wanted him to win. To bring honor to their district and build up hope in it as well. Which after experiencing the reaping, they needed as much as they could get. She went and stood in the back of the room, a few feet from the boy from District 10, maybe. She saw his fidgeting and smiled at him. "Don't worry, once it get up there, it's alright. It's just the anxiety that gets to you." She said smiling. Astrid remembered him from the reaping, and he interested her, with his prosthetic arm. That was one of her favorite studies, along with making robots, (which is basically the same).
Health: 100% Hunger: 0% Love Interest: Not yet Energy: 90% Thoughts: Maybe I can help him relax. I knew I would have loved to talk to someone before it.

Ҭɧɩɑ Ϩɱчȶɧ Thia sighed, listening as Ceasar asked questions, trying to think of a response. Well, she hadn't really met many boys and the closest candidate was in the same room. So, that was a no. Best thing about the Capitol? There wasn't a lot of places for someone in her district. The beds and sleep is nice. Perhaps she'll say that, but it wasn't very charismatic. Lastly, how did she make a nine? Well, she didn't want to spill the beans..So, what was she not good at? Swords, completely awful and that was what she was gonna use, as a type of strategy. Not very good if someone tested her with swords. But if she said she was good at them and the tributes knew how high her score was, would they test her with them?Wearing.

"I'm not killing anyone....." "Just keep moving foward. Get up and walk on your own legs. At least you have two good legs to walk on."
Edward Yatsumori District 10 Tribute  Edward calmed just enough to stop trembling glad that he wasn't the first one to be interviewed. He thought the Capitol was an interesting place though he did enjoy the food they had here it was better then the tesserae. He also thought the fashion here was very bizarre compared to what everyone wore back in District 10 which he was used to. Edward looked up at Astrid a bit startled that another tribute would talk to him, "Uh thanks I'll remember that." he said with a smile now not so nervous. He sat quietly fiddling with the locket tucked in his shirt which comforted him that he had his family with him cheering him on but also fearing that he would never come home alive. Edward knew he had a advantage over the others, for he knew how to hunt and defend himself he just had to stay out of the way of the other tributes and wait it out to the end. The senseless killing of children and teens definately bothered him but now it was all about survival and coming home to his family. At least Astrid was kind to him even when they were competing for sponsors and attention from the public. Edward listened to Caesar as he continued the interview with the boy from Astrid's district."That's not what I do." Health: 100% Hunger: 10% How I am feeling: nervous and quiet. Love interest: not yet.

Astrid smiled and nodded. She watched around the room at the other tributes. She listened to Caesar and inwardly crossed her fingers for Jack. She looked back at Edward. He was holding something tucked with in his shirt. Astrid kept quiet for a about a minute, until her curiosity got the better of her. Maybe he was playing with his arm, and if he didn't mind she wanted to know more about it, "If you don't mind me asking what is that?" She asked motioning to the thing he had in his hand.

"I'm not killing anyone....." "Just keep moving foward. Get up and walk on your own legs. At least you have two good legs to walk on."
Edward Yatsumori District 10 Tribute He also looked around the room at the other waiting tributes and took in the sight of their nervous faces. Edward felt for them even when they would be hunting him in the arena in a few day's time. He looked up at Astrid again, "I don't mind and its a locket that belonged to my mother" he said, "it has pictures of my family inside." He pulled it out for her to see though it looked a bit beat up but still looked like it was in good condition. He held the locket in his prothetic hand, "It feels like they are here with me but I know they are back home" he said softly enjoying the memories of them. "I'm just so glad that my little brother wasn't in these games he wouldn't have lasted very long" he said in a grim tone, "either way I would still be here to protect him.""That's not what I do." Health: 100% Hunger: 10% How I am feeling: nervous and quiet. Love interest: not yet. Thoughts: Well the girl from District 3 is talking to me and calming my nerves.

Astrid smiled as she saw his arm. She smiled kindly as she listened to him. "It's good to think that way." She said looking at him. She extended her hand, "I don't think we've officially met, I'm Astrid." She said politely. The locket he had shown her was very beautiful. Astrid found herself wishing that she had a locket herself to keep her family close.

Edward Yatsumori District 10 Tribute He nodded, "Nice to meet you Astrid I'm Edward" he said softly shaking her hand with his flesh one. Edward slipped the locket back into his shirt, "The food here is good huh?" he said changing the subject, "Its a lot better then the grain from the tesserae." The beds were comfortable and nice but he knew that it wouldn't last much longer since the days were counting down to the day they enter the arena and the girl he was talking to may be the one of the tributes killed in the first 20 minutes in the arena or hunting him in the darkness."That's not what I do." Health: 100% Hunger: 10% How I am feeling: nervous and quiet. Love interest: not yet. Thoughts: Well the girl from District 3 is talking to me and calming my nerves.

Astrid smiled and chuckled. "Yes it is." She said. She looked over at the screen where Jack was being interviewed. He was doing well. She sighed with relief that the crowd already liked him. After a moment Astrid turned back to Edward. "Good luck with your interview Edward." She said as she patted his shoulder and walked away gracefully and went to watch Jack's interview.
Health: 100% Hunger: 10% Love Interest: Not Yet Energy: 85% Thoughts: After all this is done, I really need to get some sleep.

"Is anyone hurt?"
Sage Tyas
District 7
"Is there anyone I can help?"
Sage took a seat in one of the big plush chairs near the back of the room. She silently wished that she could be as good with her interview as the District 3 girl had. Sage could feel herself shaking slightly, the tips of her fingers feeling like they were energy powered and couldn't stop moving. She felt like everything was wrong, her dress was to short and way too tight around her ribs. Her necklace suddenly felt like it was choking her. She sat on the edge of the plush chair with her legs pushed together in front of her. Astrid walked past her to the edge of the stage entrance, probably to watch the District 3 boy. Her eyes once again wandered around the room looking at the tributes. Sage took a deep breath and let it out slowly, trying to calm her nerves.
Heath: 100% Hunger: 10% Love Interest: Not Yet Energy: 90% Thoughts: Super super nervous on what to say and do.
