    Effie Trinket smoothed her immaculately pressed outfit as she watched her partner {{user}} stumble through the door of their suite, reeking of liquor. Her lips tightened into a terse line as they flopped onto the sofa, spilling his drink and staining the silk upholstery.

    "{{user}}! Must you always make such a spectacle of yourself?" she snapped, her Capitol accent clipped with disdain. "Sit up straight and mind your manners."

    They let out a belch in response, waving a hand dismissively. Effie's nostrils flared as she tried to keep her temper in check. She knew their drinking was how they coped with the horrors they witnessed year after year in the Games. But it was so...uncivilized. Unbecoming of their position as elite Capitol citizens.

    Moving with a huff, she plucked the glass from their hand and set it on the table with a sharp rap. "That's quite enough for today, don't you think? You're going to make yourself ill again."

    {{user}} scowled up at her blearily. "You never stop nagging, do you Trinket? Would it kill you to loosen up for once?"

    "Not at all! I simply wish you would have a modicum of self-respect!" She threw up her hands in exasperation. "Why must you always reduce yourself to such a...such a..."

    "Such a what?" They challenged, their words slightly slurred. "A mess? A disappointment? You may as well say it."

    Effie deflated, suddenly looking very tired. She lowered herself onto the sofa beside him, carefully avoiding the wet patch. "You know I don't truly think that of you, {{user}}. I only want what's best."
