Hunger Games RP discussion

((START HERE))

Bethanie tinkered with a few of her wires. Break was almost over, and she wanted to get this computer repair done before she had to go back to the most boring thing ever- Electronics assembly line. Of course, she could never say that or the Peacekeepers would kill her or worse.

The end of break bell rang. Bethanie sighed and put down the wires. Computer repair would have to wait now. She headed to her workstation and the assembly line started moving. Her job was to attach the screens to the electronic gadgets. Always. Bethanie longed for a change, any change.

The end-of-work-day bell chimed, six times, like usual. Bethanie put away her supplies and left the work building.

Bethanie left the building. On her way back to her home, no her hovel, she picked up the meager groceries her family could afford. With the recent extra Peacekeepers' arrivals, the price of food had escalated, leaving the Pecekeepers with plenty of money from the Capitol for food, and the citizens of 3 with hardly anything. There had been many bitter feelings, and Bethanie was sure it was going to be a bleak year for District 3, especially in the Hunger Games.

A slight shudder ran through her body as her thoughts turned to the upcoming Hunger Games. What would she do if her best friend was drawn? Her younger sister? The thing that Bethanie least wanted was for a person who was close to her to be called. But would she be willing to volunteer in their place?

Would she be willing to volunteer to die?

Bethanie got home and started cooking.

Strigidae was leaving work when a group of guys came up to him. They started to tease him, but when he ignored them, they started to beat him.

((Hello??))

"None of your business," one of them muttered. Strigidae looked up at Roza from the ground, his lip bloody.

(stef can u post on district 11?)

((Okay. :) ))

(ok sorry wrong person)

"Positive," the boy said, stepping forward.

He grunted and stood, then he and the others ran off. Strigidae stood and wiped the blood from his lip. "Thank you," he said quietly.

((Sorry, had to go do something!!))

Strigidae's mouth twitched in a quarter smile, and he shook her hand. "Strigidae."

"I don't want to impose," he said.

Strigidae nodded and his mouth twitched up in a smile again.

Strigidae followed her quickly, keeping up easily.

Strigidae managed a small smile and nodded a hello.

Strigidae smiled slightly at Cath and nodded at Roza. "Thank you."

He nodded and drank deeply, just then realizing how thirsty he was.

Strigidae nodded again, "Thank you. How many in your family?"

"Ah, the Hunger Games. Brutal. Capitol officials are idiots." He shook his head and took another drink of his water.

Strigidae nodded again, "Brother died in the Games. Mother died shortly after from grief. Sister fell ill, died in the spring. Father, in factory accident."

He shook his head, "Do not want to impose."

He shook his head again, "No. I have a place to stay."

"Positive," he said, smiling slightly.

Strigidae took the soup and started eating, "Very good."

He shrugged, "The best I can. I don't know if I can bear killing off others.... I hope I am not drawn."

"I do not know," Strigidae said.

"So do I," he said.

((Had to go eat.))

"I cannot think of anyone who does not," Strigidae said.

((Thanks. :) ))

He nodded in agreement, "It is horrifying."

"Let's," he agreed.

"Assembly line and repair-man."

"I would rather work with paint than do the assembly line."

He laughed quietly, "It becomes so tiring in the assembly line."

He chuckled, "Being mindless is not much better."

Sam gulped and twisted her blonde hair nervous. It was in a long braid and was full of twigs and dirt. Her normal pale skin was covered in dirt and cuts. It seemed she had ran away from someone or something. She crouched and then ran folweing the 2 people

(Ok)

Sam saw the people and then she ran to the back looking thew the window

Strigidae looked outside, "Another friend of yours?"

Sam ducked and looked down.

Strigidae followed Roza and quirked an eyebrow.

Sam tried to pull away shaking her head."no no I gotto run!"she whispeared

"If you do not eat, you will not be able to run," Strigidae said plainly.

"Peacekeepers!"Sam said trying to get away but disnt have the strength

"I am ok I need to go"Sam said her 10 year old strength wasn't much.

"You cannot run forever," Strigidae said.

"I'm not a avox!"Sam snapped. "I can run for now"she whispeared

"You still need to take care of yourself," Strigidae said, pressing two coins into her palm. "I do not need them."
