Fourth Dispatch: It's Not What You Think. Voice.

[trinkett]

Dear Fellow Residents of Luceti,

Wouldn't it be entertaining to put on some Games here in Luceti? Not that the Cultural Fair wasn't amusing, or any of the other activities going on here -- but true gladiatorial games. The pitting of one creature against another! Think of the thrill and drama and the release that goes along with that sort of entertainment! And here in Luceti we are ideally suited for a very exciting Games indeed.

Who would you sponsor or volunteer for this entertainment? Or would it all be...

[There is a pause here.]

Pokey-mans? I find human beings MUCH more interesting to watch, personally.

I'm not sure; I don't understand the technology of the Dome.

If it helps, this baby seemed to be part of...part of a memory.

[A horrible, horrible memory that she usually tried to justify or just not remember at all.]

[voice]

[trinkett]

[Sorry, Adele -- Effie is just going to hang up on you without even listening to that entire message. NOPE. Not listening any more!]

[trinkett]

Is he named for Soren Kierkegaard, the famous philosopher?

[trinkett]

Tennis?!

[Luke in what universe is tennis rabidly exciting?]

voice:

[trinkett]

I can understand that! Victors must be the most prized partners in any given district! Well -- with the exception of Haymitch, for obvious reasons...

[trinkett]

Why, that's the very cusp of womanhood!

[No it isn't.]

You'll be grown before you know it. Time goes by quickly, you see.

voice;

[trinkett]

Yes! Yes. Which Bender do you know?

[trinkett]

I think you'd be perfect for it. I'll put word out, shall I? Luceti needs cheerleaders!

[Voice]

[trinkett]

The trick will be to work with what we have...

I'm not a designer, you know. I'm just spectacularly good at creating inspirational ensembles.

[trinkett]

You should look into football, at the least. There are books at the library on the subject. And with your build and talents...


I think you would be quite successful at it.

When... when someone from a community gets married, everyone in the community gives a little money. It's what the couple uses for a ceremony, for the main dishes they provide at the party afterwards... that sort of thing.

When a Victor gets married, everyone in the district contributes a little. So those are always... major events. They don't happen a lot, but we never forget when they do.

[thefinaljedi]

Is there something wrong with tennis?

[He likes it. Screw you Effie. You're weird.]

[cilantro]

"Soren Kierkegaard"? [Do we know anyone with that name in Pokemon world...note to self, try to look him up when he goes to the library later.] Hm...you'd have to ask them if that's what they intended when naming him, but I suppose it's possible.

[Although, Ikki is not the original owner of that Swellow, so it's possible she wouldn't actually know either. ^^;;]

[etudes]

I'll make sure to study up on all of it, for sure..! [ At least she's already getting into it. ] I'll try to be the very best cheerleader I can be.

[wannabolt]

[Obstacles? Traps? Excitement?

Dash's eyes widen with each word, and she rubs her hooves together.]

That. Sounds. So. AWESOME!

[And thus, she created a fan out of an ignorant pony. Good thing she doesn't know the darker aspects of the Games.]

[Voice]

[abjurer]

I don't think anyone does. It's way beyond what there is in my world.

[He pauses for a moment and wonders if there's a tactful way of telling someone that they're probably crazy and hallucinating.]

Huh... strong memories can cause ghosts but... I'd say the child had to have been there at some point.

[Voice]

[fashionably_strong]

I haven't had any professional training as a designer, either. I've just got an interest in it and a sense of style. Maybe it would be best to figure out what sports people would be competing in.

[prims]

Aang. Have you met him?

[breezing]

The cup of womanhood?

[ WHAT ]

[Video]

[trinkett]

Nothing, nothing.

[EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING IS WRONG WITH IT.]

voice;

[trinkett]

Aang. Yes. Yes, I have.

[Poor, poor Aang. No hair to speak of. So sad, to bald so young.

But don't worry; Effie has plans to do Things about that.]

[Video]

[thefinaljedi]

Right. Just...don't start organizing fights. It'll be better that way.

[Effie, you are weird and a bad liar]

[written]

[deadalready]

I'll do that.

[He's going to have to go to the library now. oh dear.]

Be careful, Miss. Trinkett. [He's not sure if he should call her something else or not...but Miss. seems like it works.]

People [Clove.] don't want to be reminded of the Games.

voice;

[prims]

Well, he's the only one I've met.

voice;

[trinkett]

Do you think he'd like...a wig?
