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.

why?

[ that's all that matters. they can deal with him calling her an idiot in a second. ]

[redemptionarcs]

[ the single word blinks up at him from the communicator and he sighs. heavy, and long. ]

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. ]

[nockingjay]

they tried to kill you so you killed them

that's all i did in the games

[redemptionarcs]

it's not the same.

it was over and done with, but i couldn't accept that.

i didn't have to do it, but i did.

[nockingjay]

sometimes you do things because you need it to be over
i don't get how killing them makes you worse when they were gonna kill you

[redemptionarcs]

[ well, this is strange. it's everything he's wanted to hear out of someone's mouth. it's absolution he has no idea what to do with, from a girl he's deemed as what. ally. friend.

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. ]

[nockingjay]

i'm not saying it's great or anything
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?

[redemptionarcs]

no.

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. ]

[nockingjay]

well then
they started it.

people from you world sound pretty impractical

[redemptionarcs]

yeah, you can say that again.

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?

[nockingjay]

[ wow so rude. ]

no

they were really desperate
