If you want it wet then you gotta make it rain!
Who| Holly Day and You!
What| Holly thinks things could use a little more fun, so she's set up a booth just for that
Where| In the Tribute Center lobby
When| A few days after the arena
Warnings/Notes| N/A
DUNK A HO
Anyone walking into the tribute center will notice the sign with those three words, flashing in bright neon pink and exploding into rainbows before flashing again. It sits above a dunk tank, an arrow pointing down at the person sitting in on a little platform in the tank, still dry, grinning eagerly at anyone who happens to walk by. A bin of tennis balls is a few feet from the tank, waiting for someone to grab and toss at the target to dunk her.
In her opinion, it's been entirely too long since they've all had a bit of fun, and she's more than happy to encourage it, even at her own expense. Holly benefits as well, of course. She's recently bought some new waterproof makeup, and she's looking for a way to test it- this obviously the way to go about it.
"Come one, come all!" she says loudly, "Try your hand at dunking a ho! I'm far too dry, doesn't anybody wanna make me a little wet?" This will be followed up with a giggle and an exaggerated wink, and she'll continue trying to entice people until someone finally decides to come and dunk a ho.

no subject
Unless he wins.
He takes one of the balls to throw at the dunk tank. "Ah, how very efficient of you. And here you look so self-sacrificing, lassie, and it's all a ploy to help you, what's the term you lot use. 'Beat your face'."
He grins. "You're sure there won't be any hard feelings?"
sorry for the delay! work has been hell
Holly lets out something akin to a cackle at his words, throwing her head back. "You caught me! I'm actually pretty selfish on occasion!" She presses a hand to her mouth and widens her eyes like she's been caught doing something scandalous. "Nice use of drag terminology, baby, I'm so proud of you!"
Her lips quirk up into a smirk, and she folds her arms over her chest. "There's a lot about me that's hard, but feelings ain't one of them, so throw your balls my way!"
no worries!
"I'd say you're being unladylike but we know that's far from the truth." With relatively perfect aim, he throws the ball at the target and sends Holly into the water with a momentous splash of petticoats.
Re: no worries!
"Wow!" she lets out, coughing a little and wiping the water out of her eyes. "I wasn't expecting that!" She swims over to the wall of the tank, squinting as best she can at her reflection. "It's not running!" she exclaims with a clap, grinning widely. "This stuff is magical!"
Re: no worries!
"Bless your country's technology, Miss Day. Whatever will they come up with next?" It really is surprising and impressive what the Capitol is capable of, and Tom's familiar enough with the nature of human history to know that the materials being studied for waterproof makeup could unlock the secrets of renewable jet fuel in another context. Human ingenuity is one of the few things that regularly impresses him.
