Effie Goes to Hollywood

[trinkett]

[Sometime midmorning or so, Effie Trinket finds herself surrounded by droids in the front garden.

They don't need to get rough with her.]

FINALLY!

[She grins in satisfaction and goes willingly, soon finding herself marching through the village with a phalanx of droids escorting her along.There is a million-dollar smile on her face the whole way. Finally, her hard work and image have paid off in Luceti. Finally, the Malnosso Organization is giving her a place. It's good to be back in a skyrocketing career arc.]


*** Feel free to have characters speak to Effie on her way out. The droids are taking her at a leisurely pace due to those high heels, and the chaperone is going with them more than willingly. This is her big break, you see. Her main chance. I am having her kidnapped because I am going on hiatus from Aug. 2 - Aug. 12 or so. I'll continue tagging her current stuff but nothing new after this. PROBABLY won't be around at all during that hiatus period. XOXOXOXOX SAZZY ****

The Malnosso has been known to experiment on people, Effie. Maybe they'll be nicer to you since you're co-operating with them and maybe they are promoting you, but...be careful.

[Bulla has zero faith in those droids and thinks that if the Malnosso really were promoting Effie that they could have the basic decency to send a person along with the droids to talk to her.]

If you get a bad feeling or something seems suspicious, run. Or stomp on their feet with your heels and walk very quickly.

Bulla! I'm not going to run from opportunity! But it's sweet of you to be concerned. Really. I'll remember that when the time comes to promote people inside the enclosure.

[Rest assured, Bulla -- you're on Effie's Nice List.]

[Well, no one can say she didn't try to dissuade Effie. She would just punch those droids, grab Effie and run, but Effie's so convinced that they're here for benevolent reasons.]

Thank you, but I really think you should be careful with them. Just in case.

[trinkett]

Bulla! I am always discreet, I assure you! Now stop worrying! When I return -- probably with a diplomatic attachment -- I will come around for a manicure!

[Discreet isn't the word she'd use to describe Effie. Not after that announcement about her Games.]

Well, you're welcome to stop by for one. Just...remember that these are people who took everyone from their worlds without permission. You might have some problems with them respecting your boundaries.

[It's the best advice she can offer, given how willfully deluded Effie is being.]
