He tried on the suit and immediately relaxed. It was very fitting and comfortable. "Wait, is this it?" he asked, concerned about anything else that might have been to come.

Portia walked back into the room. "Why, you expecting something less than unforgettable?" She asked, setting his cape on fire. "dont worry, the flames wont hurt you." she said.

He gritted his teeth, but soon realized that the fire wasn't actually burning him. He walked forward and backward a few paces, making sure the fire was safe. He said his regards, and made his way to the entrance of the ceremony.

I stood beside one of the coal black horses of the chariot, slippingit a sugar cube, which the animal munched on happily, and nudged me roughly with its nose. My dress wasn't yet burning.
"Let me get that," said Portia as she set the hem of my dress on fire. I flinched as the flames licked my skin but after a few moments I realized I couldn't feel anything and so I relaxed slightly.

Colt walked down the hallway, breathing heavily. His cloak was on fire, but he just ignored it. He entered the room, and the first thing he saw was the massive chariot, and the other tribute on fire.

I looked over at Colt, giving him a quick and forced smile. As I gave the horse a pat on the neck.

"Are you nervous?" he asked her, his voice slightly shaky. He had been through a lot of things at home, but nothing like this. They were about to be displayed in front of the whole of Panem, and he was terrified.

I nodded my head. "The horses help. They're really well trained, and really sweet. Cinna kind of helped me out with my nervousness though." I said, scooting slightly away from the horses' heads so he could get through to them if he wanted. "really, they won't hurt you." i said, casting my eyes onto the screen on the wall showing the stadium filled with people.

He slowly approached the horses, one hand nervously held out. His breathing was rigid as he took a few paces towards them. He finally placed a hand on its head, and it looked up at his with livid, heavenly eyes. He grinned slightly as the horse gave him an affectionate nuzzle.

Ooc are you around horses much? Just curious. I take lessons every week.
I laughed coldly, and moved around to the back of the chariot, the flames pulling out curling whispy fingers of smoke behind me.
Ooc and low muse.

To be honest, no. Maybe a couple of times a year but I'm just using knowledge.
IC: He joined her, as the doors to the ceremony started to slowly open.
OOC: Also low muse.

I climbed up in the chariot, my heart trobbing erattically against my ribcage. "I'm afraid I'm going to fall off." I cuckled darkly, looking back at Colt. "If I start to fall you will catch me right?" I asked.

"Of course." he said, raising his eyebrow ever so slightly. It was an odd question, but in the Games he didn't know what to expect. It was at that moment that the doors slammed open, and the chariot from district 1 begun to pace along.

"Please Colt, I'm really afraid that I'll collapse." I said, looking up at him. With me being so small practically anyone towered over me, so to me, Colt was huge. "Thanks." I said and my stiff form relaxed slightly. Not by much, but slightly all the same.
