✰ JUDGE RISKY POPE .

"Live from Saturn City, welcome your first judge... Risky Pope!"

The crowd's already ballistic as the glass plane rises from her feet, revealing legs, hips, ass and a whole lot more as Risky takes the stage. "Heeey, what's up!" She shouts into the mic, purple ostrich feathers littering behind her model walk, rock music playing as the strobe lights strike across the auditorium. A stage meant for talent, Risky cups her ears back and forth listening to the crowd's cheer, raising her mic to them before speaking again.

"Panem! Welcome to Saturn City! Let me hear some noise, come on y'all," she laughs as the crowd amplifies. "This is the biggest, the baddest and the toughest talent competition on this planet, and we would know - we made it. You want to be a star? Then you come to this show, am I right?!" Beauty's out, it's all about talent now.

Risky stands center stage as she continues the entrance speech, "tonight, right here on Panem's Got Talent, stars will be made, baby! Each contestant has ninety seconds to prove to us why they should make it to the next round and onto the TOP! And as you all know this is live, this is all live, so we don't know what the hell is gonna happen on this stage tonight. Things are about to get crazy, things about to get wild, but before we get started let's meet the rest of our judges!"

"First up is prodigee, Nilima Rao! Breakout gamemaker and a whole lot of man, Aloysius Honeycutt! Muttations expert and Survivor expert, Saaaber Bancroft! The capitol's favorite magician playboy, Josiah Layton! And last and most thickly, me, Risky Pope Washington! Ain't this the hottest judge panel you've seen all year?!"

There's a second she lets the crowd cheer before continuing. "Now, us 5 are on a mission to find the biggest star in Panem, and guess what? That's all about to begin, right here, right now!"

[ ✰ ]

Hello hello, and welcome to Judge's Cuts! Last week we separated the stars from the light bulbs and this week we're finding the cream of the crop. The Final 10 contestants will face off against one another proving why they should continue on to the GRAND FINALE! Prior to tonight's performance, fabulous mentors from the Capitol met with each of the talents to ensure everyone performs to the best of their abilities.

For Judge's Cuts, each contestant will roll three dice 1-100's. The higher roll of the first 2 will count towards your overall score, with the lower being dropped. Our 3rd roll will be used in the case of any tie breakers!

Rewards Recap: everyone who participates in this round of P.G.T. will bring 3 points home to their Ratmas House (go pissbabies!) as well as $10,000 for reaching the TOP 10! The final 5 of P.G.T. will all receive a free CB for their efforts and the winner of season 1 will receive a custom banner for their profile to commemorate their victory.

✰ FRIDAY EVERLEE .

"How do you feel going into this round of Panem's Got Talent?"

The answer was easy - I was facing up against some girl who had been singing about lip injections and being a bad bitch. Yawn. Boring. It's like, no one has originality these days. The times of all of this materialistic confidence bullshit are over - being a self-proclaimed bad bitch means nothing if you can't match it on stage, and I sure as hell knew I had swept my division just in pure talent alone. Not to mention, I'm pretty and a fan favourite. Really, I had no reason to be concerned.

But of course, I wasn't going to tell that to the cameras. Ever since I had risen to C-Lister fame, I knew how to work the cameras and stay out of scandals (the bad kind, of course). Instead, I smiled sweetly at the interviewer.

"I'm confident enough in my raw talent that I feel all I need to do is get up there and be myself. I have been training for years for this point in my life - I want this so badly, and trust me, I truly, truly believe that I want this more than anyone else does," I told the interviewer, as I brushed a stray hair to the side, "I'm super excited to show the judges what I have planned for this week. It's unlike any other routine you have seen on Panem's Got Talent."

"And how do you feel about facing up against Schylar? Do you feel nervous, confident?"

I pursed my lips and thought about how I would answer for a second. On one hand, I could be a fair competitor. On the other hand, I knew Capitolites ate drama up and I could totally be a petty bitch. But what implications would that have on my future fame?

I had to give them scraps, that's what.

"Don't get me wrong, talented girl, but..." I winked towards the camera, "I'm still not worried."

"You heard it here, folks, Friday Everlee everybody!"

Hey, we didn't suck!

I was really excited for once, and for the first time since finding a home at the Harvard home, I felt alive. This ecstatic wave of happiness rushed over me, because I felt like I had a purpose again. There was a part of me that told me that this music stuff I've been working on ever since being at the academy was worth it as well. The fact this flute was the last gift of one of my mothers before they disappeared, it means a lot. Every note that escaped my instrument was my love song to them. It told them that I still loved them. I miss them, even. If they were out there somewhere - watching, listening to their son play their flute on national television, I would be happy.

I wonder how the other Harvard kids think of me. Do they think I'm silly for being here? Are they hoping that I'd win, so I can buy them all presents? Maybe I will. If it wasn't for Blair and Sylvie, I would have not wanted to do this. And look where I'm at now!

This next round was some sort of face off thing. I'd basically be placed on a dual of some sort of talents. This round, I was against someone named Maisie. I guess it was the musicians against each other, if I'm correct. But it's also hard to tell. There's been so many acts in this entire experience that I've lost track of what everyone's doing. But it was the top ten. The Judges Cuts, whatever that meant. I think it's time that we branch out.

Up until now, we've played it safe. Did the safe song, where we could play within our already known limit of the band. We did the easy sound that makes us seem like the cute local church choir. It'd pass and send us to the next round. We couldn't do "the next round". It wouldn't bring us stardom. Really, we had to test our limits. Step a bit outside our circle of talent, but still staying within our powerhouse. So, for this recent round of rehearsal, that's what we did.

We still don't have a name. It's hard to think of those things! The only name I suggested was Harvards' Harmonies, but that sounds a little too much elementary school talent show for my liking. I don't really want to give us a name, either. This is the first time I've felt like I had a group of friends. It's so crazy that a world of friendships that I never thought was possible are so close. All you need is a story and a heart to use it. Being able to find a community of people who love something as much as you do is powerful. I never had that before. Giving a name to it makes it seem official, like a business. I didn't want to lose those friends that I struggled for so long to have.

So, for now, we had no name.

But we do have one hell of a love for music. Love wins, right?

We spent a few moments waiting to get called, and we were in our circle. The warm-up stuff. The sappy things that make us happy to be involved in the experience, because the only other way a bunch of kids like us would be meeting each other would be through the Games. Most of it was thanking each other for having the guts to actually do this. Words can't describe the warm feeling I get in my chest when this is happening. When I feel like I have a purpose, rather than being a poor foster child. I was the pastel orange of the sunset, warm, encapsulating. The kind of color that makes everything seem at peace. It makes me happy to know that I wasn't just a foster child anymore, but back at home, I could be a performer.

I could create music for a living, and damn, so far that sounds amazing. They called up Harvard, because we still went under my name since I signed us up. A round of hand squeezes and a communal inhale, exhale. It was time.

"Hi guys!" I gave a small wave out to the crowd. One of the things we also wanted to work on was general stage presence, that way we didn't look like sheep on the stage. "We wanted to try something a bit new for us, so hopefully you guys enjoy it."

✰ MADDIE BROWN
& SPARKLES THE DOG .

"Can you believe it, Sparkles? We're wildcards. That's even better than getting through the regular old way!"

"Woof!"

When they called me from my hotel room, where I had spent the past 14 hours curled up in a ball with Sparkles sobbing my eyes out, and told me that the judges had picked us as their judge's choice I screamed so loudly I broke the receiver and got a noise complaint from the next room over. Oops! But that didn't matter, because my mood went from one extreme to another and Sparkles and I jumped on the bed all afternoon. Even Mom cracked a smile as I hugged her!

So here I am, with sparkly rollerskates on and a pink skateboard for Sparkles and we've got matching helmets on with big pink bows stuck to them - and we look amazing! Yipee! I have never felt this happy in my entire life - ever.

Judge's choice, it rings in my ears - or maybe that's the tinnitus from screaming so much yesterday. Ma made us drink nothing but honey tea so I still had my voice. How else was I going to perform my rollerskating routine whilst Sparkles barks the Panem Anthem whilst riding a half-pipe on his skateboard?

And she had a point, because boy oh boy they want you to give a lot of interviews in the semi finals! I think one of the backstage hosts was a little surprised when I took the microphone from their hands and started giving a speech for every question - but I'm Maddie Brown! I've gotta get my fifteen minutes in where I can. They don't bring back a judge's choice for the finale!

"...and I wanna say hi to everyone at home! Hi Hazel! Hi Julian! HI KYLE!!!!!"

There's a furious wave of my hand at the camera lens, and then I'm getting gently rolled to the side of stage.

"Okay BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

✰ AXEL MORRISEN.

They try to give me a mentor but I end up bagging the clown.

Pietro's pretty cool though, we stayed up all night making pies and crying in the fillings and then I accidentally got high and called Annie to tell her that I'm making good choices.

Bro time, you know?

Bro time <3

Anyways I didn't let Pietro go home, you don't do that to a bro. He's parked off stage in a lawn chair with a stack of pies and I give him a thumbs up every two seconds because I'm kinda nervous? Wild right?

You'd think I'd be used to this whole thing by now but I think I'm finally stepping into my shoes as a dumbass. Look at me now dad - flunked out of career training but now I'm on tv making a fool out of the family name. Anarchy's dead and Annie's got zombies in her phonebook and really nothing matters.

Hey, bet you've never seen a one man pie eating contest!!

Pietro throws a banana cream and it lands on my head and that's okay. Shit happens right? ahaha. Half of the key lime hits my mouth and there's definitely too much baking soda in that one but the coconut tastes fine. I think I might be depressed. Pietro lobs a cherry pie right over me and it lands on some lady in the front row, she screams and looks like something out of horror movie. I don't think it's that dire but maybe her dress is expensive, I dunno.

The menu gets upended one by one and the pumpkin lands on the stage, I punch a tart out of the air, I bet my sister's seething back home.

Maybe I'll just start having a breakdown on stage. That'd probably make her feel better.

She was told that her performance was a little lack lustor, but Zara would disagree. It was just hard for the judges to see her talent. Lucky for her, most of her other competitors had bombed. She wasnt going to get off easy, but she was going to at least make it by the skin of her teeth.

She had been in much worse situations.

While it wasnt impressive according to them, Zara made it very clear that she was mixing her proclivity to fighting with an art form. Sure, she wasnt the best at dancing, but she could at least understand how to move her body. After all, it was her own, and no one else owned it.

She took time to really get a routine down that maybe the judges would just go crazy over. It wasnt much, to be very clear, but Zara knew that taking the time and effort could or would show the judges that she was in fact worth it.

And so when the music started, she looked at them and gave a little wave, performing a couple dance moves across the stage to the bumping music. Just like the music commanded, she moved her body ody ody ody as she pulled knives out of nowhere and threw them at various targets, hitting them with very little difficulty. She was made for this stuff. She turned around and began to throw her own ass in a circle, and then threw a knife in the air, hitting the back side with her ass and watching it fly across the stage, hitting the target in just the right spot. It wasnt perfect, but being able to throw a knife with ones ass should be considered its own talent.

Zara was full of talent, and maybe now the judges would see that.

"This has been so much fun I have to say." Zara said after the music stopped. They made it clear that she only had a couple seconds, as she was going up against someone else for the chance to move on in the competition. "Remember, Zara with a Z.
Peace and love!"

She didnt mean that. She wanted to win.

✰ BEATRICE MORRISEN.

”Another round? Really?”

Honestly the most logical thing for Beatrice to have done when signing up for a talent show would be to plan out an act for each round, for each possibility of bagging a plastic crown compared to the one her sister has. But she lives life on the edge and spent most of the night rehearsing with her troop and batting her eyelashes at ’the people in the know,’ who can provide her with the props.

Morrisen. Morrisen. Morrisen. It is a name she can throw around. It is probably why Axel, her cousin? Whatever relative he is, is into the top ten with her too.

It is giving her a spotlight at least and she has been tipped off that finally PANEM IN LOVE is going to be starting soon! So maybe this vacay of hers in the Capitol may last a little longer and soon there will be hot people to play with.

Fun, what a final year to have in the run up to her nineteenth birthday. Fuck the Hunger Games, she has found the better reality shows to be reaped into and being a loser does not put her underground. (With the exception of Annie’s zombies).

She has dropped the fire now. ”This is going to be a shocking performance!” Whips fully charged with an overload of electrical volts. Herself and the troop are dressed in outfits laced with flashing lights and the centre piece is the six foot long 87th Hunger Games electrical spear replica.

”We are trained professionals, do not try to replicate any of the stunts performed today in your own home…without a camera! Remember to download the new social video creating app TickBoom and post your remakes on there!” Yeah she may have agreed to do that in return for some props, anything to get Beatrice’s way.

✰ SCHYLAR LE BLANK .

So like, I've made it pretty far in this competition, and honestly, if I bow out now, I can't even be mad. My Soundsky profile has already started booming with followers and my songs are going pretty mad without even having official releases which is just insane to me. What type of person wants to listen to a live recording over a studio version?

I need to book myself in as soon as possible. Maybe if I win this whole thing, I can afford to upgrade my mini home studio into something bigger. I can stop recording in my closet, using a duvet as noise cancellation and work towards something a little more professional. I don't wanna get ahead of myself though, I mean, there's some pretty... interesting talent left here in this contest and the Capitol has questionable taste levels, to say the least.

You're in one day and out the next — but meh, I don't really care. I'm just living in the moment, and it's pretty dope. One day at a time, right?

They make me sit at the side of the stage watching all this crap from the other contestants. Yeah, this girl isn't bothered about me — so fucking what? I don't base my entire self-worth on one white girl's opinion of me because I'm grown enough to not give a shit.

I'm only doing this to put myself out there, anything else is a bonus, and I don't feel the need to drag anyone else down whilst doing so. Eh, at least not yet anyway, because if the time calls for it, I could definitely whip up a fire diss track and have these girls suffering from PTSD every time they hear an 808.

And talking of 808s, I hear the beginning of my next song start playing. The crowd start cheering as they wait for me to go on stage. Nails on, heels high, wig laid, yeah, I'm giving what is supposed to be gave and I'm going to let this audience have it. I strut on like a predator ready to snatch up its prey.

✰ ARCHIE CAPEK.

The head trainers let me take three days off to practice my next routine and I didn't even ask for it – pulled the last two out of my ass the night before. I asked them "Aren't the games soon?" And I got nothing back but shits and giggles.

My therapist gave me a call to congratulate me, said it looked like I was making progress with being more in tune with my feelings up there, and I'm starting to feel like this is all a fever dream.

Do I have to decapitate someone for them to vote me off?

When I go into the studio, there's hundreds of people crowded outside, a lot of them holding up posters that have some kid's face on it, "LET'S GO AXEL" in bubble letters and honestly I haven't watched a single other contestant. A girl goes before me, competition I guess, and she's in a flashing outfit, doing something crazy out there, and I'm backstage with my fish.

Okay! Showtime!

Archie Jr. spins around on a wooden table with the target, I hang upside down from a metal bar and throw some flaming knives, doing flips in between. I'm thinking about how I should've bet way more than $500 if I knew I had to do three rounds of this when a knife misses the target by an inch and soars past it and into the beyond.

Someone offstage screams "Ow my leg!"

Man, that's crazy.

maisie fee;

I don't know. how to explain to everyone that I shouldn't be counted out, and it's because I haven't been able to convince myself yet either. Isn't that pathetic?

It's the judge's cuts. I wasn't even sure that I would make it past the auditions, and now here I am, standing in the wings watching as everyone else goes ahead of me. It unsettles my stomach, the having to watch everyone else, to compare myself to everyone else before I've ever had a chance to prove what I'm really worth.

The outfit that they put me in itches.

I wish that I'd spoken up when they designed me. The stylist had come in, sprayed this awful pink stuff through my hair that made it feel course, and thick, when it was already dry and frizzy from the shitty dye job that I gave to myself the other week. I should've listened to Lara on that one. Why don't I ever listen?

Why do I only speak up when I shouldn't?

At least the dance is mine, even if this isn't exactly the image I would've chosen for myself. And when I take my place on the stage, and the music starts to play, I just close my eyes and let go of the control over my limbs that has had me trembling for the last two hours. I breathe in, and exhale into a swoop, twist and turn with the beats of my heart and hope that my hair doesn't spill out of it's buns. I'm spinning and the world is spinning right along with me, and before I know it I forget about the places where the underwire is digging into my side. I forget about how Maverick isn't in the audience because I refuse to tell him I've tried until I can tell him that I've won.

The lights dance around me like stars twinkling, and they're blinding. Blinding. They're brilliant.

I want to look into them every day.

✰ vittoria antoinette .

Last but most fiercely, it's Vittoria!

There's a moment of silence as the judges shuffle their notes. The audience lives in the silence, an auditorium full of celestial bodies are chattering away as she prepares herself. Finalist; it sure does have a nice ring to it. One the judges clear their throats and she watches from the rafters.

"Well, is that all then?"

"NOT QUITE!"

And she drops from the heavens, all miss 5 foot 11 with six inch heels, Vittoria plummets to the ground. Legs spread like her mother taught her, she lands with a boom! that echoes around the Capitol and the audience cheers in response. It's called making an entrance, look it up. She holds the pose on the ground as her cape cascades around her.

Never mind the other finalists-to-be, "the talent's arrived! Vittoria's here," she says with a side of hand-ology. Strike a pose, feel the moment. Vittoria's up against good competition and there's a spike of nerves as she gets on her feet, but it's all about staying in the game honey. Head in the game, focused as can be.

"Antoinette Jr.! Jeez, the bloody dramatics run in the family?"

"It's actually called the star power gene, it's common in queens."

"Right! Right, and what are you gonna smash this week?"

"This." She says, feeling the energy in her legs and pointing at the ground. The performance starts right as she's in position, Disco Tits the house remix kicks off and she's strutting at the first beat. Talent is legs, talent is face, and she's serving it like it's off a fast food menu. Quick and easy baby, watch her lips as the vocals kick in.

She's about to kill this duet.
