annoying cousin's advice [quinn&flynn] 91st

FLYNN GARNER
YEAR OF THE 91st

At least Quinn seems confident but so was Aurora…will Quinn actually listen to me, unlike her? There is only way to find out and well, a long-drawn stress-filled week is now lined up for me. Already there has been chatter and a pressure on Quinn just because she is my relative. Teddy has a family, just as big as my own. How come they haven’t picked one of his? I have lived by the book, yeah there have been a few spillages but I have literally swallowed the Capitol etiquette. There is nothing in the Ts and Cs saying I can’t go to college…

I have let the Capitol swallow her up, being my cousin is one positive push up the pedestal and any bump for sponsorship, I will take it. I am learning year by year, failure after failure. There are a few things to fine tune on my end but in the end, it is always up to them. My win was just the luck of the draw, that luck that needs recharging quickly for my family.

It is another morning and another early session in the training centre. I pull Quinn to one side outside the entrance before she makes her way in. ”Have you spoken to any of the other tributes yet?” I ask her, thinking back to the key plan of picking out strong allies. Langley, Revan, and Nanette, each of them is a reason for me being stood here four years later. There is no forgetting them. ”You are going to need good allies, trustworthy and no complete idiots!”
