23rd Throw - [ voice ]

[After two days of the girl not showing up for lessons and not giving her any warning, Clove went looking. A brief discussion with Twelve, and, well, that was enough.

Of the things left behind, she'd claimed the stiletto she'd helped Rue pick out.

Maybe, in the long run, it was better this way. She'd never had to really use it. She'd never had to put the training Clove had tried to give her to use.

Later in the afternoon, Clove addresses the journal.]


Looks like the Little Bird has gone back to the nest. [A nickname for everyone. Something to make them less than human in the Arena.] The kid, Rue, she's not here with us anymore.

["She went home" would be a lie. For Rue, for her, for Cato... There's no home to go to. There's only death.]

This place really has its moods, doesn't it? Sometimes just sends a lot of 'em away at once.

[Well. Laura wasn't expecting that...]

...I see.

Thank you for telling us.
girlverine: (Hmm?)

It didn't seem like she would do that.

I don't think she wanted to leave.

[Laura sounds about as genuinely sad as she can manage.]
girlverine: (Hmm?)

[personal profile] girlverine 2014-03-05 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I...we talked of it in generalities.

She did not seem to want to speak of her home.

[Oh... this is actually sad news for Jude.]

I don't suppose there's more than one person by the name "Rue" here, is there?

[That actually was a little sad]

Huh, shitty deal.

[He's a poet truly]

Hard to say for sure. Best not to think about it too much.

Just futile hoping that it isn't the one I know, I guess. But I really haven't heard anyone else by the name, so it probably is.

[He sighs, clearly a bit distressed about it.]

I guess it's good that she got to make it home safely though. So there's that at least. She can see her friends and family... [Little does he know...]

At least in the arena we got the cannon fire and the faces in the sky, right?

Mm.

Are you from the same world as her?

Right, fair enough. From the same world and all that jazz?

Huh. There is usually some kind of connection from people of the same world.

[Being a world traveling mercenary, he had seen, interacted, or at least heard of most major and minor heroes and villains in his world]

You guys in rival girl scout operations or something?
the_dead_pool2: (Did I say that out loud?)

Brings a whole new meaning to Hunger Games

[personal profile] the_dead_pool2 2014-03-08 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, depends which context. I am referring to someone who is training in survival techniques as well as seeking to destroy the competition and emerge victorious.

In a military sense, a scout is someone who patrols the outer perimeters, and usually discovers targets for a larger force to engage.

[Despite his disappointment about her being gone, he sighs in relief to Clove's reply.]

Well, that's good at least. I'm sure she'll be happy to be back then. [A beat, before he continues.] Are you a friend of hers?
