| Solstice Vernon---Female---17---District 5---Solstice had been going over everything that had happened at the reapings in her head. She was standing at the reapings, not able to stand next to her best friend Evie, her friend who was practically her sister. Evie was the little sister she never had and when Evie's name was called out again for the second time it had bothered Solstice. Evie was just so innocent and naive sometimes and Evie meant everything to her, and to have Evie being taken away was the worst thing she could think of. Solstice didn't know what she had been doing in that time but it felt like time was slowed down when Evie started to walk up there but Solstice had ran out into the crowd screaming for Evie and in a desperate way she called out she had volunteered. Then there was no way of getting out, there was no way back out and those words determined everything. The sad thing she hadn't been able to save Roe either, it meant a lot more than her than her or anyone else really knew but thankfully someone volunteered for him as well and she didn't have to feel the need to protect him and she didn't have to go in knowing one of them would have died, having him not be in the games with her was a good thing. Soon enough she had her goodbyes and she didn't care about looking strong like others, she cried in her mom's arms, not because she knew she was going to die but leaving her mother alone. Their father already parted with them and Solstice was the only one left. Now she was leaving but she cleared up her tears when she said goodbye to friends, past boys she had flings with but the only other two goodbyes that mattered were Evie and Roe. Roe was awkward and didn't say much but Solstice had a few words she spoke to him, telling him to watch over Evie, she didn't tell Roe much else besides the fact that he's the only one she told she's probably not coming home, and that wasn't a bait to be told she was, she wasn't going to push herself to win, she was going into those games to be herself and stay herself she wasn't going to fight to win to come back changed, she couldn't do that to Evie, or the people she cared about. She was going in being herself and going out being herself.
The goodbye with Evie was heart wrenching, Solstice told Evie everything she hadn't her secrets, her hopes, her dreams, and all her experiences, she just couldn't leave them unsaid and Evie was the person she was telling them to. Evie only held the small fact that Solstice did have dreams of being with one guy for a long time and she did have hopes she'd find someone who cared, she also had hopes that Evie would go far in her life and that this was the last time she'd be reaped. One could only hope. She had hugged Evie for a long time but soon she had to part with her friend.
Now Solstice stood in the door way of the train, not sure what she was doing here, why she had done it, or if anyone would care if she even died, or would they just all pretend they cared? Solstice walked into the compartment and then saw her mentor sitting down. Rhea. She won the games a few years back, she was the twin sister of Roe. Also the sister who walked in on Solstice talking to Roe while she had no pants on. It wasn't like Solstice had expected that whole night to turn into something "worse" in the eyes of others. Roe was different in a way, a good different, she wouldn't have done those kinds of things to Roe, if that even makes sense. It was still an awkward moment, and which made now a bit more akward, but it had been a few years since that day, it was in the past.
Solstice grabbed a bottle of water and then listened to the words of Rhea and came to sit down, Rhea knew what it was like to sit here, but Rhea didn't know how it felt to sit here and know you have engraved your death in stone, that you planned to die from the start, she wasn't going to go right away but she wasn't going to try to win. "Hello, Rhea." She said softly. "Nice to see you again." She said being polite for once, respect was a valuable thing. | |

| Solstice Vernon---Female---17---District 5---Soon enough Rhea was talking quite a bit as she started to crack down into business. Solstice continued to listen to her but yet she seemed distanced from everything that was going on. Eventually the avox left and Rhea became less business like, maybe Rhea wasn't that bad, she never knew her before really, and it wasn't the ideal place to reunite and meet someone again. "Not many people would do it because they're cowards and selfish." She mumbled softly. "Evie couldn't have gone into the games, she's too innocent to be here, the games are a dark place, and I just hope this is the last time she's reaped." Solstice says quietly and then looks at the table and shortly after brings the bottle of water to her lips and tips the bottle back, taking a drink of water. There was the topic if she had any questions and really Solstice didn't have much on it, she was sitting there thinking for a bit and then looked up at Rhea, "I don't have any questions." She said firmly. The awkwardness was long gone by now, it was just a matter of what to say or anything of the such. "I don't have much of a plan but, I do know that I plan to be a lone wolf and I don't plan to win." Solstice said still looking at Rhea, "I just thought I'd make that clear now, my objective isn't to win, it was to protect Evie, and I've done that the best I could." Solstice said and at that she was silent for a few minutes and said nothing else for the time being. | |
