(I support the Disney with death idea but would also like to make it known that I am concerned about Leo She’s more bloodthirsty than usual XD) (“Back off, bitch.” Forever my favorite piece of Sparky’s art and my response when Leo comes for me.)

Amadrya Darrow The fire-eyed maid of smoky war
For a little while, Amadrya was only aware of darkness. A cold, endless, suffocating darkness. The kind of darkness that scares you but also tells you instinctively that the darkness is far less scary than what awaits you if you open your eyes.
But then the splitting headache came in, causing a quiet groan to cross her lips, and her whole body suddenly seemed to be aching. A dull, throbbing pain. She was aware she seemed to be lying curled in the foetal position, something which made her feel all the more vulnerable.
The last thing she could remember was forest, forest that made her feel safe and secure and hidden. Forest like District 7, a place she had finally allowed herself to feel hopeful that she might see it again. She remembered running with Everest, legs carrying her as fast as they could. But it hadn’t been enough, she remembered, as Everest first went down (she recalled her distress as she called his name) and then her, a numbness spreading throughout her body as the world faded to black.
And finally, cautiously, she opened her eyes, doing so slowly so as to allow her eyes to adjust to the light. She was in a cell, confirming the broken memories she had over what had happened. She hadn’t made it out. She was in a cold metal cell, bars stretching before her.
She uncurled herself from her position, moving to sit up against one of the walls of the cell.
“Where...where am I?”
A dry, groggy voice from a couple of cells to Amadrya’s right, pausing to cough in the middle of its words. She couldn’t see the figure, at least not well, but she did recognise the voice. It was...
“Holly?”
Another voice had beaten Amadrya to the punch, this time from the cell next to Amadrya, to the right. A voice that would ordinarily bring her comfort, that would normally cause her heart to race and her cheeks to flush and for her to have to fight to remain emotionless. But now this voice made her stomach drop, made her want to cry or maybe punch something out of anger. Because it confirmed her worst fears. He was here, he shouldn’t be here, he should be safe with the others.
“Everest?” Amadrya spoke now, her voice sounding hollow already. She was already practically broken if he was there with her. They would hurt him, probably use the two against one another.
She didn’t want to see him in pain, she couldn’t. But she realised that this meant she had to be the protective warrior again. If it were just her and Holly she would have nothing to lose, she could shout whatever awful things about the Capitol she wanted, or she could be the scared kid she really was, no matter how much she pretended.
But that wasn’t an option now. Strength was paramount once again. She was getting tired of being strong.
“Amadrya?”
And when he said her name, her heart twisted.
But before anyone could say anything else, a new voice interrupted. Louden.
“How kind! Now, if we are done with greetings, I believe we should get to business.”
Nobody said anything, But Amadrya struggled to her feet, just to stare him down on more equal ground. She was here but he wasn’t going to break her. Her only goal was to protect Everest and the others as much as she possibly could. Beyond that she couldn’t care less. She couldn’t care anymore about what happened to her, she didn’t have anything left in her.
“Panem is in outrage! To show them that it will never be repeated, we are going to make an example -“
Panem in outrage? Just the Capitol, more like. And what the hell was all of this anyway? Make an example of them? Their whole role as tributes was to be living examples, their whole existence within the Games was to make an example. To die and kill. She was fed up of being used as a symbol for somebody else’s use. She was Amadrya Darrow, an individual. Not a pawn to be used by Louden or the Capitol in order to spread whatever message they wanted to Panem.
Amadrya would have said so herself if Holly hadn’t spoken instead.
“Killing us wasn’t enough?”
Amadrya found herself nodding in agreement, there. Holly was right. But killing them would never be enough for the Capitol, they all knew that really. The Capitol, and Louden in particular, never went in for just an ordinary death. Death always had to send a message, to mean something, to be a show. Just killing them wouldn’t accomplish what Louden wanted. Oh, he planned on killing them; the District 7 girl had no doubt of that. But it would be very public and preceded by a prolonged period of horrible torture.
“I suggest you shut up, enjoy your time of peace as it lasts, because soon, you’ll be wishing you were dead.”
And with those words, Louden stalked off and left them all in silence for a moment, as Amadrya sunk back into her sitting position before casting her grey eyes towards the figures in the other cells.
She wouldn’t call this an ideal situation
Still, she was just glad that the others were safe. Perhaps all of this would end up being worth it in the end. Ari was still alive and out there, he could get home to District 7. At least one of them should. And the others would be okay, they had hope and they were all strong. Even the ones she hated, she knew they were survivors. It would be alright.
“Let the 91st Hunger Games begin,” she said grimly

[ ah, Dream, don't worry about anything! We'll miss you tons but don't think for a split second that we'll never still be here. I think our last period of absence and eventual all coming back together proved that xD. We'll see you! At least come back sometime to plan that vacation! ]]

Hey Chaos, I’m pretty good! How is your Fourth of July going? Hahah thank you! I will probably write up Macaria’s death post that I have planned later but for now I’ll leave the writing at that. But yeah it was a very dramatic situation and I just felt inspired to try and figure out Amadrya’s feelings)

We had some sick kittens, 2 of them, and they passed this morning, and so did my rabbit who died of old age.

Ahh yeah I understand that x well like I said you know we’re all here for you and sending you love <3
Thank you! I might do more stuff like that if something you write particularly inspires me x and you know as I’ve said before I’m always happy to help with anything for your fic in terms of maybe how my characters might react to something or just anything really XD

(Hahahahaha and I would with you you’re a great writer x
Well I’m always here to help and bounce ideas off in PM if you want and I’m more than happy to write extra bits or basically do as little or as much as you need because I know a fic is a lot of work and they can be hard to do alone)

Honestly you would do so much better. You put more detail in(I don’t do as much because I just want to get it over with haha).
Honestly I love your writing.
With Elo gone, I don’t really know how we’re going to do the next set of games...but I know that it could be good writing material to do the games we’ve done as a group in a arc, and all of us could pitch in, write chapters, help out with it if that makes sense?)

Nah your writing is great though I feel like you capture the emotion better and it’s so genuine and I just love it But thank you, I appreciate it x Yeah that makes total sense for these Games, if the others agree with that then that sounds good! But yeah it’s gonna be tougher with Elo gone to do like the next Games or anything. But yeah for the fic you know I’m happy to help in whatever way you want)

(Since we planned everything out, we can still do this one, I think, without much of a problem?
For the next one, we can either continue it as an RP, or my idea, kind of make the characters, RP some stuff, but kind of make a fic as well? Dunno if that makes sense but...?)
