[Reports from Winchester - Day 2]

[the_effect_she_has]

[Katniss is standing at the edge of town, far enough not to be overheard by the inhabitants, and it's clear in the writing that she's a little ...perturbed.]

We've reached the town. Most of the residents are hiding from us - so I suppose they're wondering the same thing I am, 'what kind of trap is this?' Some of the buildings have appeared to have been attacked - it looks consistent to the bug attacks from Terre Haute.

[She sighed, before looking out to the farmlands.] We met Dr. Gene Brewer, along with some ... kid named Heath. They seem friendly enough, and Dr. Brewer is the leader. Apparently they've lost two people - a housewife and a film student - so random attacks.

[A shake of her head.] It seems too simple ... but maybe I'm just jumping at shadows again.

Is that a challenge, sis? Because if it is, challenge accepted.

Bring it, writer boy.

Katniss

[unvarnished]

Did you just call me "boy"? I'm probably twice your age, kiddo.

August

[the_effect_she_has]

I'm eighteen, you're thirty five. Close, but not quite. Besides, age never denotes maturity.

Katniss

[unvarnished]

... Yeah, okay. You got me there.

August

[the_effect_she_has]

I know that I do.
