Welcome new Tributes!

The Capitol has gathered a good crop of you at once, and to help morale, and to ease you into Capitol society they are throwing a banquet, just for those who work with the Games. Stylists, Escorts, mentors, a few of the Capitol elite, and of course, you all, the Tributes.

Instead of waking up in the normal way, new Tributes awake in lush beds, in a very posh ski lodge. Elegant but simple clothes are laid out for them, in a warm grey, and a note to come down as soon as they are ready. And if they linger too long, a peacekeeper appears to escort them down.

Those from the Capitol, are brought in on chartered party buses, one for each District, which are about as posh as a bus can get. It's a roughly 45 minute drive, well out of the Capitol's city limits.

Although the party is "mellow" by Capitol standards, it is still pretty damn extravagant. Alcohol flows freely, and banquet tables are kept fully stocked by silent avoxes. The whole ski lodge has been cleared out, and guest can hit up an ice skating rink, or pick out a swim suit and jumped into the huge, natural hot springs tubs.

As the night drags on, however, all does not go as planned. Half way through the night, there is a tremendous roar, and the hotel is plunged into pitch blackness. There is chaos for roughly 10 minutes, till low power emergency lights flicker on. However the generators don't have the power to keep the heater going.

A first aid station is set up, and the avoxes start pulling in blankets to the main lobby, lighting a fire in the fireplace and doing what they can to keep everyone warm. It is quickly communicated that there was an avalanche, and although the hotel remains in good shape, the power and the road to the Capitol has been cut out.

It's going to be a long night.

The voice startled her, to day the least. There was a lot of flailing and splashing as she was snapped out of her daydream. Calming down enough to not splash like an idiot, she sank into the water further and turned towards the voice, her eyes wide.

"Hans?? Why are you-- I mean I'm not wanting to not see you or anything... But I just wasn't expecting to see you... Ah.... Hi."

So smooth.

[hanssome]

Hans smiles at her reaction, reserving a laugh for a less perplexing time. He seems happy to see her for now, but deep down he's fretting over the multitude of ways this could go badly for him.

Her demeanor seems to indicate that she isn't interested in hitting him again, and he's long since discovered that arriving from different points in time is a common occurrence.

"I had no idea you were here." He gives her a worried look, padding toward her. "Do you mind if I join you?"

[ordinaire]

Anna is totally just beet red from the steam. Yup. That's definitely the reason she could almost pass for a tomato. Hitting Hans is not at the top of her to do list, not now when she has no reason to. There are a million things going through her mind right now, however, such as: who's taking care of Arendelle? Does being in a strange land mean they're still engaged? How long has he been here?

"No! I mean, I don't mind. I'd like the company. That'd be nice... If you want."

[hanssome]

Hans should probably at least pretend he's a little bit flustered, but he assumes hot springs etiquette is something along the lines of sauna etiquette. Besides, it's Anna, could she possibly hold his brashness against him?

He smiles at how obliging she is, nodding at her as he moves to lower himself toward the water. He's surprisingly dainty about the way he dips his foot in before sliding both legs in to sit beside her at a respectable distance. He's really the polar opposite of Kristoff in many senses.

"I wish I could say I were happy to see you.." He begins with the heavy stuff, fixing a worried look on her. "Please don't tell me they expect you to fight."

[ordinaire]

Anna glanced away as he dipped into the water, sneaking a few glances here and there. This was, well, unexpected. When he was in the water and spoke up, she turned back towards him. Right, the fighting. She was trying to forget about that.

"They do," she replied quietly."I don't know what I'm going to do..."

[hanssome]

Don't think he doesn't notice those glances, Anna. What a Princess you are, thinks the Prince slipping into a Hot Spring with you whilst you're both shamefully under-dressed. It's really best not to dwell on it at this point, but it's hard not to.

"I don't know what we can do." It sounds as if it pains him to admit that. "There's nobody we can offer up in your place- nobility means nothing here! Believe me, I know from experience." He sinks a little into the water, a sombre expression on his face as he looks at her.
