Warnings/Notes| none at the moment!

Feferi, against all odds for an aquatic teenager girl coming from a planet with little fashion sense, manages to show up to her interviews looking as fashionable as she knows how. Her dress she keeps simple, but she goes all out with the makeup and hair, showcasing what she's learned so far. It's all deliberate, anticipating the kinds of questions she might get, though she can only guess. She's even come prepared with a little notebook full of drawings, just in case anyone wants to see her monster designing credentials. Most of them are just her best attempt at illustrating Alternian monsters, pointing out their deadly features, with very little embellishment.

Of course she's nervous, just a little bit. Who wouldn't be? This is just the next step in her long-term plans; she knows what she's really angling at, and it's not becoming a good and proper Capitol citizen. But she knows how to play this game-- she grew up with it, even if she never chose to partake before, not to mention it's in her blood. As she makes her way to her interviews, she can't help but thinking of her ancestor. What would the Condesce do? Feferi had always disagreed with her on the finer points of how to run an entire species, and to some degree she knew that their shared lusus had given them more than a few legs (and arms and miscellaneous tentacles) up. But even she had to admit, their Empress had been cunning of her own accord.

Over the past several months, she's done everything in her power to make herself look and sound the part, though. She's put her best foot forward at school, and tried to take away what small enjoyment she could from it. Her face is still plastered on magazine ads for various hair and beauty products. She even made a renewed effort at this past Arena, though she's not proud of that one. It gives her the confidence she needs to step into the room with her trademark smile, bouncing as she goes, hair and dress following suit.

"Hello there!" She helps herself to a seat, not wanting to waste any time, settling her hands in her lap over her notebook. They both know why they're here, so might as well dispense with the formalities. "I am ready to do this whenever you are!"

As one of the Capitol's newest Mentors, Anna has suddenly found herself quite a wealthy young lady. Not that it's anything new to her; growing up in Arendelle, she never wanted for anything, and her family held a modest wealth. But suddenly, she has so much money she's not quite sure what to do with it; her winnings seem vast and unending, especially when combined with her ongoing sponsorship deals. So when she shows up to her first-ever citizenship interview, Anna's dressed even more nicely than usual, in a red velvet dress with a heart cut-out, tights, and heels, all under a glossy black fur shrug.

The meeting was arranged by some higher-up or other; a cozy corner conference room on the floor level of the Tribute Center, with buttery-soft leather armchairs, gleaming wood coffee table and a stack of coffee-table books that nobody has ever read. Anna is almost tempted to see if they even have words inside them, or just blank pages.

When her interviewee shows up, Anna is surprised and delighted to discover exactly who it is. "Feferi!" She lights up, perched in her armchair, and then remembers that she's supposed to be professional. "I mean, Miss Peixes!" Her smile, red-lipped, tames itself, taking it down a couple of notches. "Yes, I agree, let's do this!"

Sitting back, Anna shuffles some creamy cards of stationery in her hands, glancing down at the first question she's supposed to ask. "Okay, so. Why exactly is it you want to leave the Games, Feferi?"

Anna finds herself grinning as she jots down notes on what Feferi's saying, so she can refer back to them when she's making her recommendation later on. "Right. Very good, Miss Peixes!"

This is so strange. Like they're playing a very elaborate, very beareaucratic game of pretend. But it's all very real, with actual consequences, she's forced to remind herself. She finishes scribbling and consults her notes once more.

"Next question. What can you offer the Capitol? Are you going to be seeking employment?"

When Leonidas got the message about the Citizenhip Interview, he'd reread it a few times before setting up his own game plan. Normally this would just be a few questions and write a recommendation then head out. The occasion merited a a more formal approach than to show up in his District colors or his training uniform.

The greeting is met with a slight surprise as to who it was. Feferi Peixes was one of District 1's most marketable and stronger willed Tributes. Her fighting and her showmanship were noteworthy as well. So any chance he can have the competition culled in favor of D2 was fine by Cora as he settled downin his seat. "Relax, Miss Peixes, we have time. So first off, why do you want to leave the Games?"

Leo quirked an eyebrow at the part about winning the Arena...well, she's got a guaranteed yes on his part then. The less number of experienced Tributes on the other Districts, the better. Her answers were too vague for Cora's taste though and he sets out to dig a little deeper.

"Seems like this next question would be superfluous in that case," he shrugged, "What will you in the Capitol? How will you earn your money and adjust to this life?"

Peggy doesn't plan on making this a long, arduous process. She's not going to be the reason anyone is stuck in the games. She does her makeup nicely and wears a pretty black dress, but it's professional clothes, not evening wear.

"Then let's get started," Peggy says crisply as she looks down at her own clipboard and goes over the questions in her head again. She wonders what it must be like to be able to petition out of Capitol-run death matches rather than just find your way to the morgue. "Why do you want to leave the Hunger Games?"

"Mmm hmm." Peggy writes down some notes for appearance's sake, even though she already knows that she's going to approve this girl to leave the arena. "You're talking about contributing to the Capitol, but what exactly do you think you can offer to it? You mentioned modeling. Do you intend that to be a full time job, or are you seeking other employment?"

Stephen Reagan has the worst case of resting bitchface anyone has ever seen on him.

"Yeah, let's get it over with." He looks down at the tablet in front of him, where the e-mail he was sent is pulled up. He recites in a bored voice: "'Why do you want to leave the Games?'"
