[UNRECORDED]

By the time the end of lunch rolls around, Joker isn't wearing near as much of his greasepaint as he had been. It's smudged and smeared and a mess... and not just on the clown Victor, oh no. And neither of them have bothered to clean it off. Joker is delighted.

He spends the elevator ride down and first half of the walk clinging to Sullivan's back like an overlarge possum - which Sullivan doesn't seem to mind that much. When he finally climbs down, it's only to loop an arm around each of his new friends. Grinning sharply at every Peacekeeper they pass is a given, and they pass quite a few. It only starts to thin out the closer they get to the mentor room.

That's a mystery, there.

...Or it is, right up until Joker gets close enough to hear the shouting. That's quite a lot of shouting.

Joker disentangles himself and half-skips ahead. There's a tussle nearby and he means to see who. That's a couple voices he doesn't recognize. Peacekeepers, yes, because who even pays attention to what they sound like. Someone else with them. Someone trying to get into somewhere he apparently can't.

Someone - Joker realizes as he turns that last corner - someone who is really big.

That's a giant of a man standing in the center of a group of armored Peacekeepers, all stationed in front of a door to one of the security rooms or passages.

"There you are! Thaaaaat's the wrong door." Joker exclaims as if he knows, or had been expecting, this enormous presence. He even goes as far as to step in the cluster of Peacekeepers before pointing to the door to the actual mentor room. "You want that one."

Kenpachi is having one of those days. It's been a while since they dragged him to the Capitol, and everything looks the same to him. Weird, but the same. Not that he's good at finding his way around at home either, but whatever. But he's mentoring again this year and so he's supposed to be in the mentor room. If only he could find the damn thing.

He finally gets to the right building at about lunchtime. Then he gets to wander around for a while trying to find the right damn room. Why do they even need all these rooms? Eventually though, he's pretty sure he's found it. The goddamn Peacekeepers just don't wanna let him in. He's just about ready to start knocking their heads together when somebody interrupts.

"Huh?" Kenpachi squints at the guy. He's brightly colored and covered in makeup. Whatever. "You sure?"

Now that he thinks about it, he's pretty sure that's a fellow Victor. Well, he'd know. That's also just about when he realizes there's more people in the room. He turns to look. Definitely Victors. That's Sullivan and... shit, what was her name? The new one. Yeah okay, they probably know where they're going. He turns back to the mob of Peacekeepers. "Why the hell didn't you tell me this was the wrong door?"

"We did," one of them grouses, but Kenpachi isn't listening. He's looking over these other Victors.
