[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.))

a place called Panem. I suppose my district is pretty. Prettier than others I've heard of.

Can't say I've ever heard of a place called Panem

[fly_little_bird]

That's okay. Most people haven't heard of it.

[seventeenth]

Is it a small place or something?

[fly_little_bird]

No, it's real big. I think it's just from a different version of the world than everyone else knows.

[seventeenth]

I guess that would also explain why I hadn't heard of it.

[fly_little_bird]

Yeah. I don't understand a lot of what people talk about with their worlds, either. It's interesting learning about them, though.
