Holly watched this long enough. She hated romcoms, she hated romance. She never had a romantic feeling in her life. She pretended not to. So she didn’t push her thoughts more then that. But she could read others like a book, and the one that had been playing out before her was like 48 chapters too long. And sadly, much to her chagrin, it’s another damn lovestory.He looks at her like she’s his world, like she’s fragile, but oh so brave. She looks at him like he could hold the world and she would follow him anywhere, just to assure his safety. At first, when your stuck in a cell being tortured, said looks are kind of understandable. But they had been free for months, damnit.“He loves her, he loves her not, he loves her, he loves her not...” Was she really plucking at some dome daisy or sunflower and picking petals like some teen. Yes. And it wasn’t even for herself. She picked another petal, the last one, staring at it, the last was ‘he loves her not’, and she huffed, “It doesn’t matter what the f-uck you say, petals, they love each other.” She was talking to a flower. She knew Burton was probably nearby, staring at her like she officially lost her marbles. — She had no idea why it was some grand plan of hers to end this. Be the matchmaker. The Cupid. Then again, the celebratory gala was being held, and Holly was alone right now as Macaria had forced Alessandro into dancing, Amadrya and Everest were off somewhere moping, and Burton was dancing with his little sisters. Ari was nearby, dancing with Halina, though it seemed rather friendly. Other than that, there was literally no one. Well, except her dad, but some bridges don’t get to be rebuilt once they burn. And then she spotted those two, Everest and Amadrya, chattering nearby. And she sauntered over, placing her arm against a nearby wall and turning to Amadrya. “Hey,” she greeted, starling the girl, who eyed her stance in careful manner. “Are you free on Friday?” The looks she got were matching between them both, shocked and absolutely horrified. She would laugh if she wasn’t so fed up with the whole dancing around each other instead of with each other. No response, and she decided she needed a specific, “Like, around 8:00 on Friday?” Amadrya gave her a look that was a cross between utter confusion and betrayal(probably from her friend suddenly acting like a gay disaster), before she finally sobered some, “Uh,” she commented, “Yes?” Holly turned to Everest next, and noticing his confused and slightly jealous glare, she winked, “What about you?” His eyes narrowed, trying to read her and find out what the hell was wrong with her(too much was), and sighed, “Yes. I am.” He said, more assuredly than Amadrya did. “Great!” She commented, pushing herself off the wall, “Because I’m not.” They both backpedaled, watching her with matching confusion looks, mostly about what she was going on about and what she just did. She then smirked as she was about to walk away, and it seemed to click for them, “You two go on without me,” she pushed, and she cackled at the matching red faced they now wore, she then turned away, deadpan glare set dead ahead. “Enjoy your date!” She added in, a command, really. Everest seemed to gain his bearings, watching her, pointing out uselessly, “Did she just-?” “Yes.” Okay I should get some sleep.) |

(Also how cute that they were all dancing. Ari and Halina as friends melts my heart and I can’t
Also I just imagine them all being like a family, like even Macaria and Holly end up more like sisters than anything else. Just sisters who have tried to murder one another on more than one occasion. Not necessarily because they like one another or are even particularly friends, they just understand one another really well and they all want to protect one another. Like the whole group has an unspoken bond of we’ve been through hell and we will never let that happen again, we protect one another. Just a big family.
Like imagine the kids calling the others auntie and uncle? That makes my heart hurt it’s so cute)

(I’m having them refer to each other as siblings.
I can say for Holly that will be emotional because she has literally no family, siblings at all. Her dad’s alive, but...she doesn’t count it.
And then she’ll have a family which is cute.
and so will Macaria and I’m just happier.)

It had not been easy, but the rebels had succeeded in getting all three tributes out of the Capitol. Macaria had mainly fought alongside Alessandro, but had also kept an eye on the other tributes. Burton had taken it upon himself to keep an eye on the younger fighters, making sure Halina and Ari were alright. She suspected that was just because he had needed something else to focus on apart from the imprisonment of Holly, which seemed to be hitting him hard.
When they had stormed the building in which the three were being kept, Macaria and Alessandro had run ahead with Burton to try and break them out of the cells. Peacekeepers swarmed them, but they were largely taken by surprise what with the sudden invasion and plus, Macaria hadn’t fought in a long time and she was itching to put the training she’d done with the rebels to good use
She and Alessandro has even bantered as they ran through the halls, taking down the peacekeepers as they went.
“How many?” Macaria had called out to the male
“Seven!” Alessandro had replied, but then there was a pause and a yell “Eight!”
“Ten!” Macaria had responded with a laugh “you snooze, you lose, Rune!”
After some time, though, they were finally there. Three cells, with three familiar forms in them. Macaria wasn’t one to show emotion, but if she had been she would have burst into relieved tears. She hadn’t seen any of them in so long.
It was Burton who had carried the keys, having grabbed them off a now-dead peacekeeper who had been standing guard just outside the room. The District 8 boy had unlocked each cell one by one, ending with Holly’s.
Macaria had pulled the extra weight that she’d been carrying on her back, making her way to Amadrya’s cell and handing her an axe. She had known that it was Amadrya’s weapon of choice and she’d carried it to her from the base.
“You guys look rough,” Macaria has commented with a smirk, but it was clearly a joke. Amadrya had rolled her eyes.
“Good to see you too, Macaria,” Amadrya had responded, but she smiled “thanks.”
The girl had looked very pleased to have an axe in her hand again; a weapon, after all, meant an opportunity to fight back. These three hadn’t had that opportunity in a long time. In fact, Amadrya had never looked so dangerous, a deadly glint in her eye that Macaria had only ever seen in her own.
As Alessandro passed a spare sword he’d been carrying to Everest, Macaria had begun to make her way to Holly’s cell.
“We would have brought you guns but you guys don’t know how to use them properly yet, and besides we’re not planning on running into any more peacekeepers on the way out. Halina and Ari are securing our way out as we speak.”
A strange bro-hug even seemed to have been happening with Everest and Alessandro, a sight Macaria had never thought she would see. And when she stopped in front of Holly’s cell, Burton had been hugging her and it seemed like he had been for several moments already. The atmosphere of relief was incredibly strong.
“Alright, alright,” Macaria had said “District 8 is reunited, it’s very cute, but we have to keep moving.”
As she spoke, she had pulled out a couple of her own throwing knives and handed them to Holly.
“You break those, I break your arm, I don’t care if you’ve been tortured,” Macaria had cautioned, but she was still smiling
And with that, the group had set off, the district 2 girl noting that both Everest and Holly had the same deadly glint she’d seen Amadrya have. It was determination, revenge maybe. They were weak and in pain but they were angry.
—-
And now Macaria sat in the rebel hovercraft, wearing the black uniform the stylists had designed specifically for her. It fit her perfectly and was light, allowing speedy attacks, and it had a place for her to store her throwing knives. It was perfect. Her dark hair was in a perfect bun to keep it out of her face.
Amadrya and Everest sat together chatting some distance away, and Burton was in some other part of the hovercraft, having left for a few moments to talk to Alistair and Diana about something. Ari and Halina had both fallen asleep, exhausted. It was just Macaria and Holly.
“Why did you help the rebels come get us?” Holly asked “I thought you hated me.”
“I never hated you, Holly,” Macaria said what a shake of her head “Why did you think I targeted you in the Arena? Not because I hated you, but because I saw you as a threat. I admired your qualities, you were a real competitor, and we have a little in common too. If we weren’t in the Games we would have actually probably gotten on quite well. So no, I don’t hate you, I was just doing what I needed to win the Games. I actually think you’re cool.”
“Oh, well, thanks, I guess,” Holly said, sounding too surprised to make a snarky comment “I guess I think you’re cool too.”
“I mean, we’re all some crazy big family now, right?” Macaria asked “you, me, Alessandro, Burton, Halina, Ari and the two lovebirds over there. The way I see it, nobody else has gone through what all of us have gone through together. We need to look out for one another, because we’re all we’ve got. Neither of us have a real biological family, and I don’t know about you but now I’ve got a chance to have a different kind of family I’m not going to let it pass me by. So instead of being enemies let’s see one another as.. sisters.”
The shock on Holly’s face didn’t really seem to be going away, but after a few moments she’d gathered her thoughts.
“What about cousins? Like twice removed?” Holly asked, but she added “Sure, sisters.”
Their conversation died down, but after a couple of moments Holly piped up again.
“Still hate you,” she quipped
“Loser,” Macaria shot back with a smile
“Idiot,” Holly said with a grin, elbowing her
Sure, they didn’t really like one another, but there was a bond between the group that couldn’t be broken. And they had no reason to hate one another any more. They could be friends now, and Macaria felt sure they would. Because she understood Holly like only the other tributes did, and they’d all been through so much that they all felt the need to protect one another. Even she, who wanted to kill these kids not too long ago, now she knew if she needed to she could be counted on to protect them if they were in danger. They took care of one another.
And honestly, why wouldn’t she want to have brothers and sisters?

1) hmm for my characters I’m not sure. Amadrya would probably have some kind of physical power to do with enhanced strength or something, because as a character she is rooted in strength, both physical and emotional. Something to embody that desire to stay strong would be excellent for her. Or else some kind of offensive ability like being able to produce bursts of force or something. Macaria I feel like would be either a shapeshifter or would have abilities affecting people’s minds like telepathy, since she’s all about manipulation and appearances, but also because those types of abilities tend to be about protecting oneself, which Macaria’s behaviour is very rooted in. Either that or, if she had an offensive ability, something to work well with her use of knives and bladed weapons. Burton was the toughest for me but probably healing or defensive abilities because he’s definitely not an offensive fighter and he wants to protect and help people.
2) Honestly I ship all the potential couples we have but if I had to pick only one, Everdrya all the way
3) Amadrya’s is definitely green, Burton’s is probably a warm colour like yellow or orange, Macaria I would tend to think like a purple or pink colour
4) Hmmm another tough one. For Amadrya probably a tiger or something cos yaaas big kitties, for Burton something friendly like a dog or a dolphin cos why not, and for Macaria I feel like a wolf because it’s a predator that hunts in packs, like a career.
5) Okay so their genderbends... Amadrya would probably have been one of the names I’ve already used like Ackley, to be honest. As for looks largely the same, with the same colouring and still being tall and things. For Macaria probably still a name to do with death, perhaps Arius. I would probably keep the dark hair and would go for green eyes and tan skin, so not all that different from her actual colouring. Just a lot less curvy XD As for Burton, once again probably one of the names I’ve already used like Lea or Twylla, and I’d probably go for slightly lighter hair, maybe even going blonde, but keeping the brown eyes
Those are just my characters because I don’t want to speak for everyone else’s characters and tbh it was so difficult to come up with just ones for my own)

1: If Alessandro had powers, they would most likely be along the lines of some kind of control/manipulation/charm, as he isn’t exactly manipulative but he’s a flirt and he’s a very controlling figure. If Holly had them, I could see her having some more tranquil, like dreams, telepathy, but I could also see her having something more offensive on her side, perhaps speed or a type of karma, even telekinesis could fit into her.
2: Couples, I ship them all, give me lovely children. But obviously CarloxCarlo.
3: Alessandro likes red, but orange and yellow are also favorites. Holly’s is green and surprisingly blue.
4: Alessandro like’s lions, as they have a pack, and he see’s himself as the male, the leader and king of a pride. But there’s softer reasons for liking lions, he enjoys they’re strength, but loyalty. Holly’s is cats and ravens, specifically black cats and ravens, as both are seen as bad luck in many cultures, but are often stereotyped against, and she carries an uncanny resemblance to both animals.
5: Alessandro would be Alexandria(both names stem from Alex, if I remember correctly), she would go by Alex and be a cocky-know-it-all. She would have lighter brunette hair with dyed blond tips and piercing blue eyes. Holly would probably be named Oleander(another poisoned plant) and maybe even Raven(which fits both genders but still), he would be silent, brooding, with short black hair and dark green eyes. ))
