The Hunger Games

Yes, an empty brassmind- it's a ring with a tag that identifies what it is- as if it just came from a store. I don't think that counts as communicating with my tribute- if it does, then the tag isn't there. 

 

[kenod]

I open the package, finding a small metal ring. A tag on it says it's a brassmind, so I put it on my finger and start storing, relieved as the heat of the sun retreats. Not too useful, but at least it makes the desert a bit more comfortable, and keeps the amount of water I need down. It could also be nice at night, since I won't need any fire. I follow Sorana. "It's edible?" I ask, pointing at the fruit she's eating.

"Yes." I offer him a few fruits and then sigh. "I saw several others this way." I point back to where I have come from. "There was a fight, but I don't know who won, or in what state they are."

Sitting down I bury my face in my hands, realize only after I've assumed the position that it makes it easy for him to finish me off. If he wants to. "I'm a monster." I whisper and wonder if I will die now. I would have earned it, but I'm not sure if kenod is as bad a person, as I am.

I slowly stand up, my legs slightly cramping from my crouch. My strategy so far has been simple and has worked: camping. I continue to stay cautious though, as the Gamemakers surely don't like my tactic.

Correct! >:) Also, John, remind me: which direction did you go?

I went the snow way.

Pun intended.

Snow way...

[Lunar Blessing she/her]

I walk to the center of the starting area and sit down, letting myself rest. I don't let myself cry yet though, I need to be alert.

[John Flamesinger he/him]

I decide to start moving toward the center. Maybe everyone's gone and I can pick the remaining supplies.

[Lunar Blessing she/her]

I glance over to where John was reentering the center and loosen my sword in it's sheath, though I don't make any moves to get any closer.

[John Flamesinger he/him]

I freeze when I see Po, tightening my grip on my hammer. 

"Hello Po," I say, my voice bared of emotion. "Fancy meeting you here."

I like Trains, and You Should Play Halo. Just Not Halo 5. Please, the multiplayer is ok, but the story is horrible.

"Sure. Listen I've just had a really bad ten minutes so I would be grateful if you didn't try anything. Take what you want must don't come near me."

[John Flamesinger he/him]

"Ok," I say carefully.

Man, I don't even know who's left so that I can do the cannon thing, since it's sunset now. Just keep in mind most of it has been looted so all the really good stuff is gone. Probably some knives, a little bit of rope might be there, a small water-flask and a scrap of firestarter in a beaten-up tin tinderbox.

Apologies for the delay, by the way, my email stopped notifying me and then exploded my phone earlier with everything on the threads that I'd missed.

Better believe I will. It's almost time for that, and probably will be once the sun sets fully and John is done looting, since that seems like a good timing.

When you show my face, don’t do any of my school pictures. Apparently I look like I’m plotting something in them.

Me and kenod are left as well.

 

[John Flamesinger he/him]

I walk over to the pile of stuff, or at least, what remains of it. I sift through the boxes and find a knife. I stand up, and make my way towards a different exit. "Thank you Po." A bit of sarcasm enters my voice. "And may the odds be ever in your favor."

Jay and Snip, I forget, have you guys done anything yet?

Also, GMs, if you have any scripted events you might want to try something before this dies

I did something...I don’t remember what...

I slip and fall into the river, and in my boredom, I lay there, sinking into the riverbed, the fish slipping by my body.

*Rubs hands together* MY TIME HAS COME!

Everyone feels the ground rumble underneath their feet, soil in the various areas displaced by roving bands of things under the topmost layer.

You're all now at risk of being eaten if you stay in one place too long.
