But not the way I'm thinking now.

Because there's no way I'm thinking for myself because I like it here and want to help the Malnosso. Who've given me a lot. More than the people in charge at my world would.

That's definitely not thinking like myself, even though everyone seems to disagree. Has to be an opinion I got from somewhere else, not myself. Right. I'll work on that.

[She's not the girl she was in her interview at the Capitol. She's not sweet with a touch of sass. She's angry, hurt, confused, and looking for something to strike out against. She can't stab anything with her knives, can't rip into flesh and sever spinal cords. She can't fight physically, so she has to fight verbally.

She's a seventeen-year-old girl who died at sixteen. Who was forced to fight to the death. Who almost went home but died instead. Who has to -- like someone mentioned on the draft -- figure out what to do with a second chance. Who has to learn how to live a life without the Games.

And that's where the fighting comes in. She's good at it. And she owes the Malnosso. This is what she knows, what she wants. And like hell she's letting anyone take it away from her. Especially a hypocrite, telling her in one breath that she's wrong to want to help the Malnosso and in the next that she has to think for herself.

She is. This is what she wants. And since she can't fight for it with blades, she will lash out. Ineffective as it is. It's something. It's more than she could do in Panem.]
