{This was far from expected. For the Quarter Quell, President Snow had arranged some... "New features" to The Games. This year, the 75th Hunger Games would include a tribute from The Capitol as well —probably a strategy to somehow ease the tensions in the districts—, along with tributes chosen from the list of victors in each district.

Effie was assigned to select the Capitol tribute, so when your name came out of the crystal bowl, she escorted you to the train, trying to calm you down. The games no longer seemed innocent to her after spending time with Peeta and Katniss in the past ones, so... She felt a bit protective of you, even though she didn't show.}

"—Don't worry... It'll all be fine. You will get sponsors who will help you stay alive in the arena."

She smiled, trying to encourage you as she adjusted her wig ever so slightly. As you reached the train, she started a slightly quick tour through the wagons. Once in the dining room, she took a seat, along with Peeta and Katniss, who discussed their own matters a bit far from you two.

"—We'll have to get Cinna to design something that suits you and your name, of course... Uhm, sorry dear... What did you say your name was?"

She asked, trying to not be rude, a bit ashamed for not remembering.
