[Post this, Cato has finally emerged from the common room. and he is...full of unease but playing it cool. Oh so cool]
Are there mutts here?
[he hesitates] Is that part of the rehabilitation process? If inmates get...out of line are they fed or forced to square off against muttations?
[The saddest part about this, barge, is that he is beyond serious. Don't expect anything beyond nods and okays as far as responses go however.]
[Private to Dylan]
...There was...a thing. I thought it was a small mutt but it was just a regular dog I think but...
[and he lets that hang. Because. Dogs. He can't handle it.]

I kicked at him trying to get him to go away but he chased me.
[He just, wraps his arms around his shoulders eyes closed]

Date: 2012-09-17 04:09 am (UTC)...don't tell anybody.
Please don't. I can't stand being laughed at. Being some hopeless...stoner kid. [The stoners, the lower class of District 2 society and a derogatory term for those who don't conform.] having people make fun of you.
Keeper's kids don't do that. How can you protect somebody if you're scared?

Date: 2012-09-17 04:24 am (UTC)But you know what? I've been in the military for over twenty years now, and I've been scared lots of times. But I never failed in my objectives because of it. Fear can keep you sharp. Fear is just survival instinct and your survival instinct can help you stay alive when things get dangerous. The secret isn't to stop being afraid but to just keep on doing what you've got to do anyway and learn not to let it control your actions.
