Tinker sat staring at the dwindling fire as the night crawled onward. He clutched the silver knife in his hand and gazed warily at the other Tributes. He didn't particularly trust them, and the prospect of forming any kind of alliance only meant more emotional pain later on.

He'd given the blanket to Marewill, told her to get some sleep. But he stayed up, thinking.

Was it in his best interest to run? He had spores now, and could probably find some clay in the arena to make grenades. No iron or steel for precision Rosite usage, but he'd make due.

He didn't think Marewill would take his departure well, though. She seemed emotionally unstable after what the monster Emeric had done. And Tinker didn't want to leave her...she reminded him of Iara, somehow.

There was also the choice to attack. But what was that going to do? He'd never taken a life before. And he really didn't want to. He'd kill in defense, but striking first didn't feel right. He didn't want to follow the whims of the gamemakers. He'd made the choice to be here; he'd choose how he acted now.

He sighed and gazed at the sky again, missing his family.

There’s a little something in the sky, a light brown.

“We need to take someone out.”

She’d ignored his request that she sleep. She only had the tin she’d swallowed, and she needed to make it last as long as possible.

I'm not currently trying to kill anyone but I am trying to duel someone, that's close enough right?

"So do we have a duel or do I have to go find someone else to fight?"Quelkin asks Kresh.

The little brown speck gets closer. @Spark of Hope @J. Magi @The Bookwyrm and the rest of the career pack

"If you want to try, be my guest," Tinker said. "Just leave me out of it."

He paused. Then he tossed her a small vial of Crimson spores.

"Those explode into deadly red spikes when they touch water. Use them wisely."

Tinker turned his gaze towards the speck and frowned, confused.

Tinker turned his gaze towards the speck and frowned, confused.

There’s loud squeaking noises and you see the underside of some small animal before it disappears and then appears in a leaf pile next to you. There’s a loud sneeze.

“That’s… concerning. We should probably move.”

“You’re going to have to kill someone eventually, you know.” She caught it.

“And where would I get water. That tribute stole our supplies. At least help me track him down.”

Out of the leaf pile flops a little brown fluffy ferret. It looks like it’s built for cold environments.

"There are streams all over the arena. We'll find water.

"I can help you, but know that I have my own priorities. And lines that I won't cross. I don't want the gamemakers to think they have power over me."

Tinker frowned and shifted to a squat, ready in case the ferret did anything antagonistic.

What is this little guy doing here?

She watched it, wary of anything in an arena.

“Fine. Just help me find him.”

That… doesn’t seem very falling-in-love-y.

”Please.”

[SmilingPanda19 Any!]

He turns his head at them and squeaks at Tinker and chirps at Marewill. 

Squeak.

 

chirp.

It scurries along the ground up to them and circles around them before its eye’s lighting up. It jumps into the blanket and curls up, is radiates heat as it settles down, soft and cozy. @The Bookwyrm @Spark of Hope

It speaks and chirps a little before rolling onto its back so its stomach is up, waiting for tummy scratches. 

Merp. 
 

It almost sounds like speech.

"I don't know" Quelkn said. "I kind of just realized that I'm in way over my head and I guess... I'm feeling lonely and want people to talk to."

"Hey I'm just as new as you. Don't even know if I'm part of this group, or alliance or whatever it is. So do we want to team up? I think we'd be stronger together." 

 

"Yes, lets form some kind of alliance." Mark says. "I want to at least make it through the night."

She blinked, then slowly leaned over and began to scratch it. She was still ready to attack if she needed to.

It curls around her hand, he’s very warm and cuddly.

Tinker couldn't help a little smile.

"I think we'll probably be okay."

"I agree." Kresh responds simply. He grabs a stick of similar length and swings at Quelkin.

Bad time to mention I’m not a big fan of ferrets?

"I think we'll probably be okay."

“Maybe.” After a moment’s hesitation, she scooted slightly closer to him.

[Unintelligenius he/him]

Instincts from years on the streets kick in as Quelkin jumps back and starts to circle around his opponent, testing him with quick jabs to the left and right. Lets hope this doesn't turn hand to hand Quelkin thinks as he continues to circle his opponent. He knew how to fight hand to hand but he was much more experienced in fighting with quarterstaff. If only I had some pewter he thought.

Tinker didn't react. He stared at that strange ferret, thinking.

"I wonder how he got here."

I know what one is, but Tinker doesn't.

“Modified animals. Typically dangerous. That’s why I’m on edge.”

"Oh."

Tinker regarded the ferret again.

"He looks pretty normal to me."
