[Hahahaha this is gonna get out of hand I’m gonna have so many. I also put in the interview and reaping outfits for Pascal and also (RIP) Cordelia and Demi just for fun EDIT: Okay so I made two new characters here and so I have three potential girls to use in our next Games but if it’s Burton’s I’m only gonna have two characters so I have to choose between Macaria, Amadrya and Astrape. Does anyone have any thoughts? Macaria is pretty evil and manipulative, Amadrya is a badass warrior type gal, and Astrape is... I don’t know. She seems fun though XD]

"Ania! Ania!" Hagan screamed desperately. He shook his partner's limp body, trying to get her to move. Hagan felt panic as he looked at Ania's vacant eyes. The way they stared distantly at nothing in particular, made his chest tighten. She felt so small in his arms. Tiny. Weak. Lifele- he didn't want to finish that thought. She was fine. Maybe she was just hurt. Maybe she was just knocked out. But that look in her eyes.... He held her tightly as he whispered her name, this time his voice cracking. He was surprised at the emotion bubbling up from his chest. Something wet ran down his face as he slowly came to terms with what was happening. He pulled Ania to his chest, cradling her head and glaring at the other two remaining careers. Felix wasn't moving either but there was still a steady rhythm of breath that indicated life. That only made him angrier. "You didn't have to kill her," he growled loud enough for Kora to hear. Kora heard Felix's complaint, but she couldn't deal with that now. She had made a choice, a snap decision that had saved her partner's life. Besides, did Hagan really think they were all going to make it to the end? It was better that she kill Ania now, having had a legitimate reason--saving Felix--, than later, with her only reason being winning the games. Brushing a stray strand of hair away from Felix's face, she silently pleaded for him to be alright. "Wake up, Felix. Come back to me..." she said softly, her voice shaking. She was afraid. Not because she was concerned for her own life, but because this made her reason how much she had grown to care for Felix. The thought of caring for him, then losing him, terrified her.

As Catullus Acton waited to go on air, he stuck the needle he always wore onto his lapel. To make it easier and to make the needle more visible, Catullus has years ago had it mounted on a pin, so he could pin it on his lapel and the whole needle would rest on the surface of the material. Most just saw it as a reference to his District 8 origins or a hat-tip to Livia, because she was his former stylist and she wore a lot of blue. Nobody had come close to understanding how significant it actually was to Catullus and how much it meant to him. And that was the way it needed to be.
But now he was on air, smiling at the camera once again as if presenting these Games hadn’t been bringing back the nightmares he used to get every night. He almost never slept peacefully when he was presenting the Games, and these were no exception, they were worse if anything. The memories and the nightmares haunted him more than ever. Which was why his smile was a little stiff, despite how hard he was trying to conceal how he was feeling. Just as the makeup on his face concealed the scar on his cheek.
“Hello, Panem! Welcome back to the Games, darlings. So, a lot has been happening; infighting amongst the Careers, Kora killing Ania, Pascal killing Elias, and a shocking event being planned by Mallory. But most importantly, we are now down to 11 tributes, meaning we’re just past the midpoint of this year’s Games. I know! They’ve gone so fast. And that means that it’s time for our interview with the wonderful Livia Pulcheria.”
He was seated in the same chair he had been when he interviewed Livia before, and so he waited as she joined him and took a seat beside him before he turned to his old friend.
“Now, Livia, you have been working on the Games since my own Games ten years ago, where you started off as a stylist.”
He turned to the audience, raising an eyebrow “Ten years ago, and I’m definitely not getting old”
There was a chuckle before he looked back to his interviewee to finish his question.
“How would you compare what we have seen happening in these Games to the ones we’ve seen in previous years? Is it going as you anticipated?” For tonight's interview, Livia had donned a royal blue evening gown that had a translucent cape covered in delicate lace flowers. Her eyeshadow and lipstick were the same brilliant blue as her dress, and made for a striking contrast to her pale-as-ivory skin. Before she walked on stage, Livia took a deep breath and straightened, before gliding out to meet Catallus. She kept a soft smile on her face as she listened to her friend work the crowd, nodding as he alluded to her genesis as a participant in the running of the Games. And at his joke, she laughed and reached out to touch his hand, "Oh Catallus! You don't look a day over twenty-three!" Since they had gone over the questions he would ask before the interview began, Livia already had her answers prepared. Flawlessly, she answered, "Well, Mallory's plan to electrocute the competition is a tactic we have seen be very successful in the past. Of course, the circumstances are different in the maze, as she won't have access to a common water source, but we are eagerly anticipating the results of her trap," she said, her voice level, yet containing a hint of excitement.

“Why thank you,” he smiled “and the same to you, you look beautiful as always.”
He listened to her answering his questions, doing his best to listen to her words and ignore the little flashbacks he was getting. The smell of blood, screams ringing in his ears. Only small things, but enough to turn his stomach, to remind him how scared he’d felt and the things he’d had to do to survive in his own games.
But he used the same technique he always did when it was starting to happen on air. Remind himself that all those things happened to a boy named Burton Acton, and not him, Catullus. Reinventing himself, as Livia had suggested, had been incredibly useful.
Without missing a beat (thankfully) he was able to reply to Livia.
“Yes, I think we’re all eager to find out how that goes,” Catullus nodded “especially because it could bring us very close to finding our victor in one fell swoop. Now, of course, you mentioned the dynamics between the tributes during our preliminary interviews. And I think Kindle’s killing of Will shows exactly the kind of thing we discussed previously. Are we going to expect those dynamics to completely break down at this point as the tribute pool gets smaller? Will we see a lot more of what we saw with Kindle and Will?”
Catullus didn’t even need to ask. He knew for himself what happened when the number of tributes started to dwindle. Groups turned on one another, alliances were broken. It was every tribute for themselves.
