[ Effie said to make himself presentable, so here he is, freshly showered and clean. So fresh, in fact, that his hair is still wet and dripping onto the same shirt he was wearing yesterday ( possibly the day before that too, but who's keeping count? Not Haymitch! ). He smiles, so very pleasantly. ]

A dear friend of mine told me to announce my presence and make some new friends, and I thought to myself, now, Haymitch, that is a great idea. We've all been kidnapped to fight the same war with our feelings, maybe I should make some friends.

[ He spreads his arms wide with a warm grin. ]

So what do you say, gang? Hug it out before we all die bloody?

[ There's an indignant screech from somewhere offscreen, and Effie shouts; ]

Haymitch!

[ To which, he just laughs and holds up his hands in surrender while she comes and slaps off the feed before he can do anything else horrible. ]

[ ooc; so friends wow what a cheerful. check out this here opt-out post if you'd like to avoid spoilers for Mockingjay and/or avoid the more fun ( read as: terrible ) parts of THG universe! ]

I don't think you'll get many replies with an attitude like that, but I hardly blame you.

[demorality]

Are you saying I wasn't -

[ Just a mo', he's got to look at the cue card Effie wrote for him. ]

- charming and hospitable?

[theshabbiestofmen]

I am, yes. I think it might help if you shaved.

[demorality]

That takes time, effort. My friends should appreciate me for what I am.

[ u gotta do something about ur hair bro wow ]

Ah, tempting as that is, I think I'll move ahead towards the bloody death. Hate getting dripped on.

[theshabbiestofmen]

She sounds rather displeased; I don't know if you'll get that anytime soon.

[ teach him the ways of ur luscious locks ]

Wise man. In all honesty, I'm rather partial to skipping to the end myself. Saves us all the trouble of bathing.

[notaroundme]

Isn't that better than fighting alone?

[chinsup]

I am so sorry.

[This is Effie's lot in life.

Making sure Haymitch doesn't get arrested.]

Good to know that Haymitch will have at least one friend.

[These people are horrid.]

[theshabbiestofmen]

There's truly no need to apologize, miss.

[demorality]

Who, Effie? She'd be lost without me, don't let her tell you otherwise.

[theshabbiestofmen]

She seems to have the good ideas-- you really ought to make friends, you know, it's not as if being a loner will help either.

[chinsup]

[SHE'S JUST OVER HERE BEAMING BECAUSE WHY THANK YOU YOUNG WEREWOLF EFFIE TRINKET REALLY DOES HAVE ALL THE GOOD IDEAS]

[chinsup]

There is always a need to apologize for poor manners and -- well. A general disregard for decency.

[theshabbiestofmen]

[IS THERE, EFFIE. But he chuckles, because he imagines this is how he sounds to Sirius and James.]

Well. It's hardly your fault.

[chinsup]

Oh, by the end of this discussion, I'm sure everything Haymitch says or does will be my fault.

[Give it time, Remus, pls.]

[demorality]

I've done my share of fighting, kid, and I did it better when I was alone.

[ He even manages to say it sarcastically without any bitterness slipping in! 4 for u, Haymitch Coco. ]

Not that these idiots will let me be alone.

[demorality]

[ WOW W2G REMUS LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO HER HEAD ]

And you think playing house with my fellow Travellers will make this a more pleasant experience?

[theshabbiestofmen]

Well-- yes, frankly. It's helped me.

[ Jesse is feeling a little more comfortable in making comments and posts on the network, but not quite yet ready to show his face. ]

They gave us powers so you don't always have to fight with feelings.

Well. [ Ssssshrug. At least he's got some firsthand experience with this as Asgard is concerned. ] If the gods decide you're not worth dragging back in, or at least that's how it turns up here. At this point, I expect they'd recover stray toads if they thought those'd be useful.

[ .... Gang's all here.] Already drunk?

[demorality]

Do they fill you with a warm fuzzy feeling when you look outside and see that half of this city is destroyed?

[Peeta's still a little surprised to see him, even though the body count of people he knew has been growing lately. But he's glad. Really glad.]

I don't know about the dying part, but I thought Effie was going to leave you bloody there for a second.
