With Johanna showing up, I figured it was about time we got ourselves situated right. So here's where we all stand in the grand scheme of when we come from back home. Finnick wins the star prize, as you can see.

Not sure about when the Clove kid comes from, but given she's got an expiry date, it can't be much later than that. I've been trying to see if there's any pattern to it, but so far, I have a whole heap of nothing. Other than the fact this castle's favourite place to pull us is closely linked to the explosion in the Quarter Quell.

Think of it what you will. Don't say I never do or share anything with you. [He just doesn't share the REALLY important things]

[Clove]

Still here? [The 'still a threat?' remains unsaid. For now]

Ohhh. Well if you're not flittering this she can read it. I talked to her though, she doesn't seem to be out for blood.

[fly_little_bird]

[... well crap. She got so distracted that she didn't even think about that.]

I've only seen her... but she didn't see me. Everyone else has been trying to keep me inside and safe.

[not_like_the_rest]

How are you going to have any fun locked away, Rue?

[fly_little_bird]

It's not very much fun at all... I've been doing a lot of reading and sometimes people take me places so I can get out but I want to explore on my own.

[not_like_the_rest]

Don't let them lock you up, Little Monkey. You're alive, so live.

[fly_little_bird]

[She smiles, thinking. Sure, she didn't want to make Katniss and everyone else worry... But she didn't want to be stuck inside forever, either.]

You're right. You're right! I shouldn't just stay inside.

Rue

[Hey, fuck Katniss. She can go burn in her "Love". Johanna doesn't feel like saying something like that to a kid though.]

If you need any help, just clue me in, okay?

Johanna

[fly_little_bird]

Okay! I will. Thank you.

Johanna

[not_like_the_rest]

No worry. Have fun.
