Blue the escort seemed to take command of the bulk of this year's ceremonies, altering her look to a deep turquoise in comparison to last year's royal blue aesthetic. Eyelashes longer than her forearm blinked wildly as she addressed the crowd, skin stretched too-tight to take away the wrinkles and eyes betraying the age she seemed to fight so hard to hide. Despite this, she spoke wisely of Ten's past victors and mentors, who stood in a line behind her, and made the idea of standing next to them seem like something a person might actually want. She spoke clearly and did her job of pulling out the anticipation well. By the time she went silent, the crowd waited with baited breath.
"It is time." She said as she stood over the impatient people of the District, "To once again send two of our own children to the Capitol to compete in the Hunger Games. Let us begin the Reaping!"
She did not look to see the reaction of her district before reaching into the glass ball that held the names of the children. "First up," the Escort announced, pulling out a slip of paper. She unfolded it and read out to the crowd, "Andres Bramwell!" She then reached into the ball again, selecting another name. "Lucius Branwen!"
