[OOC] Beyond a Fire's Embers

[Genkai]

It has to happen now, it just needs to lol

Oh sweet, I'll be sure to get to it when I'm done with breakfast/cleaning up tomorrow then. I took my pill recently so I'll be heading to bed when I can get this other post finished up but hey, the sooner you post, the sooner I can. Thank god for long weekends now.

[mmidnight]

Yaaaas. Let's work it in somehow.

And alright! You might be asleep by the time I post, but I'm not sure. If you are then you've got something to read in the morning. I'm approaching the point where I move us forward, so hopefully not too much longer. I think I'm making good time!

[Genkai]

I have a feeling when she's sleeping in the Games, she'll jump up in the morning and fall over because some career tied her shoes together while she and Gale were sleeping. Heheh.

Oh yes, you seem to be moving things along pretty quickly. :3 I'll have something to do tomorrow so hey, that makes me happy. Maybe I'll see it before I go to bed, or like you said, it's something to look forward to. Maybe we can shorten our posts since we'll wanna take our time for the next couple posts and prepare for our walls of interview text, save our strength.

[mmidnight]

Omg, haha. What a dumb career. Kill her instead of playing pranks. Don't they teach you kids anything at that Hunger Games school??

And yeah, we'll see! I just wrapped up the little presentation thing and Haymitch is on his way upstairs. And I'm fine with shortening them up. These two were just massive because of the skip. As for the interview, I'll probably just do it all at once. I'm never prepared for anything.

[Genkai]

That career must have been too cocky to actually do anything useful. Fah.

I've got some stuff down for the interview or at least general questions I wanna ask. We may wanna limit ourselves to like 4-5 so things don't get too out of hand, not everything needs to be said after all. Do you think you'd wanna slow down with things after the interview? I assume that that night would be the last one before the morning they leave for the arena yeah?

[mmidnight]

What a jerk I: He probably got eaten by something anyway. OH. I was thinking maybe we could put some sinkholes in the arena?

Yeah, I didn't think there would be a ton of questions. They're on a time schedule anyway, so at least three but no more than five would be ideal, I think. And yeah, I'd definitely like to spend some time on the night of just letting them chill or get their worries out. I think that will be good for them.

[Genkai]

Oh yeah, we did talk about doing that. Yep, that's super fine with me. :3

Five would be max if say, not all of them had long tangents/back-and-forth. Spending one last night of peace together is gonna be super heartbreaking for me. Poor things, cherish your sanity but at least you'll be free in a week or so...not that the plan goes accordingly. >___> Gosh, Effie is gonna be super emotional come the morning they leave.

[mmidnight]

Yaay for people getting swallowed up by the earth!

I'm going to be so sad and happy about it. I feel bad for them but I'm ready to make them suffer and write the bloodbath. Poor Effie though ;c I always feel like she and Haymitch would watch the Games together and she would end up crying on him when 12's tributes died. Also, I'm almost done with this post. Fifteen minutes tops.

[Genkai]

Any chance of earthquakes?

Oh wow, yeah, I'll see the post before I go to bed then. Or I might not cause I might wanna just stay up and reply but I know I shouldn't. ^^; But yes, I am excited for le postie. Oh hey I just got your text that you posted.

The urge to read it is strong...*whines*

[mmidnight]

100% chance of earthquakes.

Like I said last night, let me know if you need some edits! It got longer than I thought it would, and I didn't feel like I moved us forward very far but I also didn't want to godmod or do so much that you wouldn't have anything to write.

[Genkai]

I'm taking a look now, I don't think you need to edit unless you really feel the urge. I figure in my post I'd give the scores then? Which is totes fine with me. ^^ Is that okay?

[mmidnight]

Yep. That's cool with me. I should really keep this tab open in case you have more questions, haha.

[Genkai]

There you are! XD

I'm starting on my post, it probably won't take me too long, then I'll log off until I'm needed again. Maybe we'll even get to post twice today? *crosses fingers*

[mmidnight]

Yeah, maybe! I don't have anything else to do right now and I'm just playing the sims, haha.

[Genkai]

I'm just glad I've been able to get you some stuff these past few days, either way I'm happy we're progressing again~

[mmidnight]

Yeah, same. We're so close to the games now!

[Genkai]

I hope we can keep track of deaths well enough, there will be a big body count for sure. ^^;

[mmidnight]

We can use the character tab and edit them in as we go.

[Genkai]

That's true. I also think something as simple as just a list of Districts and the returning tributes/newbies would just be crossed out when they're killed. I'm tempted to say we take a shot for every kill but that might be worse than pitying Peeta.

[mmidnight]

As long as we both have access to it, I'm up for whatever. Haha, I think we might get alcohol poisoning if we did that. It's bad enough that we feel so bad for Peeta.
