![]() katniss everdeen (18) I'm an outdoors person. I go hunting and I'm better at archery than you are. Not that big on talking but I can listen, so let me know if you want some quiet, no-nonsense hand-holding. I live in a treehouse with a winter spirit and a Viking and if you hurt me, they'll hurt you. written by jack frost. |

hey.
you know that sounds dismal, right? the whole obligation thing.
no subject
what should i have written?
call me for a good time ;) ;) ;)
no subject
[ katniss, what even. he's too busy snickering at his communicator screen to respond for a second. ]
the winks might be too forward. wouldn't want to scare anyone off.
though you probably do a good enough job of that already.
[ the bow. the monosyllables.
it doesn't exactly scream come hold my hand. ]
no subject
i don't want to scare anyone off
i want to get what i asked for
what does yours say?
no subject
[ you should want to hold his hand, duh, katniss get with the program.
oh, uh. well. ]
figured i'd just put down the life story.
[ even if he is in no place to judge, he's going to do it anyway okay. it's how he's wired. ]
no subject
my life story would definitely scare people off
[ and because it bears pointing out: ]
you held hands with me
no subject
[ and really, it wasn't the most unpleasant experience. possibly the opposite.
he doesn't have much to compare it with. ]
it didn't scare me. i'm not going to run for the hills if that's what you're waiting for.
no subject
[ is that her way of saying she wants to hold hands again? mmmmmmmmaybe. ]
no subject
so you tell everyone that you're good at murder. and here i thought i was special.
who knows, it might end up the other way around.
[ because he's the bad guy, in all of it, in any way he thinks to look at what he's done. ]
no subject
but you seemed like you could take it
i don't scare easy
no subject
[ so he is special. that's... gratifying.
now he doesn't want to blow it, by telling her everything. but he probably owes it to her, since she had submitted to his prying. ]
that doesn't mean you won't be repulsed.
[ that seems the general consensus after all, on his existence. not to say he doesn't deserve it.
but it would be nice, once in awhile, not to be treated like the dirt on someones shoe. ]
no subject
i told you i killed people
other kids
but people started looking up to me as some kind of a symbol of revolution, like i was standing up for them. i just wanted to take my family and run when the districts started rebelling. they were doing it for me, because of me, people were getting killed. and my first thought was just to save myself. i never would've looked back.
i'm really not a good person.
so if i am repulsed, you haven't lost much.
no subject
none of that makes you a bad person, you didn't ask for any of it. you killed those kids to protect yourself.
besides, you don't owe anyone shit. it's not your fault they couldn't see you clearly. didn't think you were that full of yourself to actually believe they were doing it for you, probably were doing it for themselves with you as an excuse.
[ tough love from the murph.
that's how people are, and always will be. he thinks whatever people chose katniss as their symbol were stupid, she's just a kid. one that doesn't smile, isn't charming, and speaks too plainly without a hint of rhetoric. ]
i killed kids without the arena.
[ there it is. the difference between them. ]
no subject
[ that's all that matters. they can deal with him calling her an idiot in a second. ]
no subject
because i couldn't stand to look at them after what they did to me. they hung me from a tree with a seatbelt, and i didn't die obviously but it's not something you forget.
they weren't punished for it, so i did it myself.
[ the punishment.
that's as plain as he knows how to put it. ]
no subject
that's all i did in the games
no subject
it was over and done with, but i couldn't accept that.
i didn't have to do it, but i did.
no subject
i don't get how killing them makes you worse when they were gonna kill you
no subject
it's starting to make his head hurt, why can't they just go back to the part where he was calling her an idiot? ]
they were just stupid kids.
you're telling me that you're not going to hold this against me.
[ DUBIOUS. ]
no subject
some people never have to kill anyone, some people shouldn't have to
some people can't, i don't know if that makes them better than us or not.
if they hadn't tried to hang you, would you have killed them?
no subject
still might have punched them though.
[ because he finds most people grate on his nerves. the part of him that hates people isn't going to change. never will. no one's ever accused him of having a heart ten times too big. only the opposite. ]
it makes them think they are.
[ that's probably what he hates the most, in people, the high and mighty act. the airs they put on when it suits them. ]
no subject
they started it.
people from you world sound pretty impractical
no subject
people from your world must have been straight out of options, to make you their symbol.
or have you been hiding a talent at motivational speaking?
no subject
no
they were really desperate
