[Friends (If you've even had ONE friendly conversation with the girl this applies to you.)]

Um... I'm sorry I haven't really been around lately. I don't know if any of you know Peeta or heard him tell people what's happening but I didn't want you to worry.

[She takes a breath] In my world there's something called The Hunger Games. Every year two kids, a boy and a girl, are picked from each District to go to an arena and fight. [She pauses] There's only one winner... another girl from the Games I was in got here, Clove. She's what we call a Career. They train for years for the Games and volunteer to go.

I don't want her to know I'm here... at least, not yet. I've been staying with friends. I miss all of you, though. How have you been?

[Though she's not about to announce her presence she still misses talking to people. She hesitates a moment before picking up a pencil and writing a question]

What's your favorite flower?

((ooc: Open over the journal. She will be writing forever unless stated otherwise. BLAME CLOVE! /shakey fist. :P.))

I like Forget-Me-Nots.

[fly_little_bird]

I like them, too. Which color is your favorite?

[twisted_baroque]

Blue. It's like the sky here.

[fly_little_bird]

I like those ones, too. I'm glad to see the sky again. A lot better than all that rain.

[twisted_baroque]

[he hums.]

That's right. But the rain was good for the flowers. I thinkn they might really grow now.

[fly_little_bird]

They should, yeah. Though too much rain isn't good for them either. I just hope we had enough rain to really bring out the colors when they bloom.

[twisted_baroque]

It looks nice when it does. I don't know all the flowers here yet, but I'm trying to learn.

[fly_little_bird]

I want to learn about them, too. There are so many!

[twisted_baroque]

What kind do you know?

[fly_little_bird]

I don't know if all of them are here, but I know

dandelion
primrose
lily
posy
rue
rose
daisy
forget-me-not
katniss

[there's a pause and she taps her pencil against the page]

I know other plants, too, but those are the flowers I can think of. At least, the ones that I know the names of.

[twisted_baroque]

I don't think I've heard of 'Katniss' before. Which one is that?

[fly_little_bird]

It's a pretty white flower with three petals. It usually grows near water so I don't know if there are any here.
