[There's a sudden click on the forge and then there's the sound of heavy breathing. Then a shock-a noise-and then a rustle-like clothing moving around. Then a mad scramble and suddenly barge-there's a face.
It's a young face. An attractive face, belonging to a powerfully built young male with short blond hair-matted-absolutely matted with blood and gore. His gaze is wide-eyed.]
...Where's 12?
[he hesitates] Why am I back in my room? Is this-is this another test? Another arena? Or..
[The next part is said half-hopeful, half horrified. Deep down he knows it's not true, and it won't be a particular shock. Still.]
...Did I win?

The rest is just abuse.] for favors and things like that. Peace Keepers were fat and overworked and had things thrown at them and fashion-models were considered useless.
...What are you doing here if it's not an arena?

Her fingertips grazed over the scar on her chest...]
That's an excellent question... But I only just arrived a few days ago, so I'm not entirely sure either.
Re: [video]
Date: 2012-07-17 06:01 am (UTC)...It seems we have something in common then. A state of confusion.
[pause] I know you and Enobaria worked out the details of my alliance with Glimmer. Is it still in effect?
[District One: Playing the pretty Card. District Two: Playing the military card. boom.]

Date: 2012-07-17 06:11 am (UTC)[Crisis averted, for now. The corners of her lips tugged into a smirk at the next question and she leaned in nearer to the device.]
And what do we gain from this alliance, Cato? It's a different game we're playing... One where we don't know the rules.

Date: 2012-07-17 06:20 am (UTC)Well spoken.
Until it's in our better interest to break the alliance... We'll be allies.
Re: [video; private]
Date: 2012-07-17 06:24 am (UTC)So what have you found out? Apart from these people know nothing about history.

Date: 2012-07-17 06:31 am (UTC)Those who need to be "reformed" are paired with a person who will attempt to do so. And more strange things than [She pauses. She shouldn't mention mutts... really, she shouldn't....] Capitol experiments tend to occur on a regular basis.
[She hesitates a moment...]
How's your head?

Date: 2012-07-18 01:05 am (UTC)I'm not some sort of criminal. I was a tribute I was a [sacrifice. except he doesn't say it. Instead he looks a little lost.] ...Bloody. She shot me in the throat I guess when I fell.
Dogblood.

Date: 2012-07-18 01:52 am (UTC)They think we're flawed.
[She frowns and nods...]
I saw...
[She then pulls the neckline of her top aside a little to show the scar on her chest. As long as they're allies, she may as well assure him they're on the same page.]
They don't know I'm an inmate, and I plan on keeping it this way until I am proved to be otherwise.

Date: 2012-07-18 03:07 pm (UTC)Glimmer and I had a system, in which we shared strengths and weaknesses. We need a career pack if we can find people to trust.

Date: 2012-07-18 07:36 pm (UTC)[After all, she would have loved to have Gloss with her here.... but he wasn't.]
We will both be on the lookout, in that case. Try to find others if they're worth allying ourselves with at all.
