Whoops, the bloodbath is on Saturday and I'm not ready for it yet and I want to write with Ewe so a post is going to go here. So here's filler #1 for Ewe Saw so he can see what happens.

Essentially this post will contain:
- something about beatrice's thoughts on careers
- how she thinks its funny that this years games hardly has any qualifying "careers"
- how odd she finds ewe, but how curious too
- how she observes him at the painting station and wonders if he is going to play these games to win or not
-how she decides to approach him and demand an answer, since she is pushy and all. but for now she is just going to say something along the lines of, "Is that the greatest skill they taught you? Painting?" and scoff.

She's kind of a bitch. Sorry about that.

- Ewe's freaking about about how inept he is at most things
- Decides to go to camouflage because he enjoys painting like he's very good at it and the trainer notices and is teaching him more techniques and stuff like that
- he's practicing hiding in an icy environment so he's going for blues and whites and highlights of yellow kinds of stuff and then oh hey Beatrice comes up and she's being quite the bitchy career
- Wasn't she related to a career who got bloodbathed?
- Do I really care?
- Do I want to care?
- She'll probably slice my neck open with a dagger anyway
- But anyway he's pretty insulted because how dare she insult the only thing he has left
- plus district pride
- leads to crypic answers?
- "Painting requires you to see what's there, not what we assume to exist"

-she thinks it's pretty funny that he thinks he understands life
-asks him "and what do you assume exists in a world so created, Mr. Saw?"
- he's pretty weird, she doesn't know if she trusts him. but at least he's quiet.
- picks up a brush fills it with red and orange paint
-tries to recreate fire but struggles.
- finds this to be a useless talent, but perhaps it would help her survive.
-she much rather play with the dark.
- can she become darkness with paint?
- growls in frustration
- snarls, "this sucks. I much rather play with real flames than pretend to be them,"

- Is it me or are there twice as many jerks in this arena than normal?
- Did you even understand what I said girl?
- Assume.
- You assume nothing
- you only observe.
- only
- observe
- Girl.
- Guurl.
- Gurl stop.
- Gurl you're irritating me.
- SO INSTEAD OF SHOWING THAT LIKE A NORMAL PERSON EWE JUST RAISES ONE EYEBROW (HAHA EYE-BROW) BECAUSE HE'S KINDA WEIRD AND SAYS "nothing,"
- Oh great now she's sitting next to me
- Gurl that's not how you draw fire
- it's too hard, too jagged
- flames are soft and inviting, wisps that flicker and then fade
- what you're trying to draw is an inferno
- "this sucks. I much rather play with real flames than pretend to be them,"
- GURL WHY WOULD YOU CAMOFLAUGE IN FLAMES THAT JUST MEANS INSTADEATH
- GURL WHAT ARE YO UDOING
- GURL.
- "It only sucks if you let it suck"
