Interview time at thegames!

[polyturtle]

...Of course I'm nervous, mun! Why wouldn't I be? I'm on a talk show on live television in front of people who basically treat me like a freak on a pedestal. And that's not even counting the reasons why I'm on live television and why people are treating me like that. You'd be nervous too, you know.

I really do want to study how the technology that the Capitol used to teleport us to Panem works, though. It really must be something.

Interviews? I thought they just wanted to watch you fight?

[polyturtle]

We're gladiators. This is part and parcel with the whole gig.

[retrieverchef]

At least you haven't heard any particularly evil plans your mun has for you after the interviews. And she intends for my interview to "inspire" them! You're lucky you're not human.

Aww. Poor Donnie.

[alwaysfaithful]

Sorry if I'm being formward but... Why would people treat you like that?

[polyturtle]

. . .

Do...do I want to know?

Re: Aww. Poor Donnie.

[polyturtle]

Its a long story.

...Have we met?

[retrieverchef]

Probably not. But I'm gonna kill her for this...

[alwaysfaithful]

I don't think so. Why do you ask?

My mun just wanted to offer his sympathies.

[darkhonour]

I don't remember interviews in the battle nexus. These games still don't make any sense.

[Unwilling fighters, weak fighters, children fighters, interviews? Wouldn't watching fighters who were strong and wanted to fight be more fun?]

[polyturtle]

I'm not sure. I think my mun has seen you around before.

[polyturtle]

You'd need to be in the games to fully understand.

[darkhonour]

Maybe you're just not explaining it right. [Cuz DL never misunderstands anything ever of course.]

My mun is stupid and won't send me there. Don't know why not. I can fight!

[polyturtle]

...Uh...I think my mun wants to try and convince yours.


But...its basically...the games are all treated a bit like a reality show.

[darkhonour]

Mine still wants to send me to that stupid Wake game with the old man.

...Well that makes it sound a lot less interesting. [Nobody likes reality TV, not even clones] I just want to fight.
