entranceway | 1 ♆ joint music video ♫

[ The room looks like a beach house — as it is. Ten and Finnick are dressed in shorts, with wild, vibrant prints, with Finnick wearing a loose shirt and The Doctor sporting a rather dapper find. Finnick Odair isn't quite in his underwear, but he is wearing something that suggests he hadn't opened his eyes while dressing himself this morning — and Ten doesn't look like his marvellously dressed self, either, swapping a suit for something that looks like he'd wear to a beach. Finnick wears oversized red rimmed love heart sunglasses while Ten sports a large dazzling yellow pair that swallow his entire face. Standing beside one another, they seem to bounce to very loud music playing from a stereo system in the background. ]

[ Finnick points to Ten every time he sings (quite well): ] Girl look at that body.

Girl look at that body.

Girl look at that body.

[ Normally, the Doctor might feel uncomfortable, dressed as he is, but somehow, it's not really bothering him right this second. What he and Finnick are about to do is all in good fun, and honestly, he's loving every minute of it, ridiculous clothes and equally ridiculous glasses and all. ]

[ Whenever Finnick points at him, he grins and points right back, singing his part with as much vim and vigor as he can throw into the performance: ]

I-I-I work out.

[ Finnick winks at him. ] When I walk in the spot, this is what I see —

[ And he just winks back. ] — Everybody stops and they're staring at me.

I got passion in my pants — [ Finnick points down to his crotch with an exaggerated thrust of his hips. ]

[ Ten throws back his head and laughs at Finnick's exaggerated movements. But, in the spirit of things, he manages a passable imitation as he continues with the next line: ] — And I ain't afraid to show it.

Show it, show it, show it. [ Finnick moves toward Ten and grabs his glasses from his face. He slips his own off and, one-handedly — almost poking him in the eye — he slips it back over his ears. He shoves his new pair on. Finnick now wears the yellow glasses while Ten wears the hearts. ]

[ Ten mouths a silent but clearly indignant 'oi' at Finnick, but continues on with the song, now wearing those ridiculous heart sunglasses. ]

[ Together: ] I'm sexy and I know it!

[ And Finnick gives Ten a great, big kiss on the cheek. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Okay, yes, maybe the coat comment was a little unfair. Even Luke's sorely exaggerated ego can accept that he's being petty, there.]

Why don't you dance to old people stuff? There's loads of music from the seventies you can waltz to, or whatever. And it won't be about... looking... at anything.

[He trails off, supremely awkward and refusing to look at his video screen anymore, just in case another round of pointing and kissing breaks out.]

[ he glances to ten with a curious crease to his brows. ] Seventy things to waltz to? [ what is the seventies? finnick knows waltzing — it's something he's swept annie up and into doing to make her laugh during the muggiest of days, and something he's done to make johanna scowl even harder — but music is simply music in panem, there's hardly any genres, let alone music for specific ages. ]

No, not seventy things to waltz to. [ Come on, Finnick, try and keep up. ]

The seventies was a period in history that was characterized by its own type of music, clothing, dancing, everything.

[ He chuckles, amused by the idea, yet put off by it at the same time. ]

Though, I'm not sure we should be waltzing together.

[ Dancing separately to the same song, maybe, but a waltz? The Doctor's shaking his head. ]

[Nothing wrong with a stately waltz between friends. Why Luke thinks this is any less embarrassing is anyone's guess.]

How can you not know what the seventies are? Are you an alien?

[Are you a sexy caveman, Finnick? Who are you??]

[ it's so difficult to keep up when you know nothing! ]

[ but the seventies sounds like the capitol to finnick, a stark contrast to how district 4 dresses, with their eccentric hairstyles, bright lip colours, and expensive surgeries. he tries to think of any time periods within panem, but all there is is the dark days. panem doesn't exist on the same plane as their earth, unfortunately. finnick's uncertain if he'd like it. ]

I'm from Panem. [ he answers it so seriously, too, when he should merely joke and say, yes, yes he's an alien. ] What your describing sounds like the Capitol — they have their own everything.

What's that have to do with being an alien?

[ Now the Doctor's giving Luke an odd look. He might not be human, but he knows what the seventies are, thanks. But then he addresses Finnick again: ]

Where's Panem? I've never heard that name before.

[Luke shrugs at the Doctor's question. Everyone is an alien.

Okay, maybe it doesn't have anything to do with being an alien, but Finnick doesn't act like someone from the incredibly ancient time of the early twentieth century, so, in Luke's world, the most obvious conclusion to draw is that he's from off-planet.]

Yeah, but they don't have their own decade, do they? [This is a semi-serious question, because what.] There can't be one place in your country that has all the music and fashion and stuff.

[ where's panem? it's a question finnick can't answer, not even with all the secrets within his possession. finnick looks uncomfortable, trying to find the answers to their questions. his brows pinch as he tries to locate the answer, but panem is panem, and no one has ever really questioned how it's split into twelve districts, other than the fact that it makes it easier to control them all when all twelve rely on one another for food and supplies. ]

It is. There's a district for everything — fishing, fabrics, coal, wood … [ he pauses, pensive. ] Everything's remained the same for the last ten years. I imagine it's been like that since the Dark Days.

Oh, yeah, of course. I'm sure it seems normal to her, and her family. Or at least, it did.

Not really sure what happened to her. Blon, I mean. It's been awhile since I dropped her off back on her own planet.
