ADELAIDE
After, I couldn't stop blathering. It wasn't the pressure of the Fates, the hooks in my heart and spine. Rather, I had to keep talking to keep the horrible memories from building. It wasn't that I felt deeply for the fallen girl, or even Gregor. It was that that reminded me of, well, me.
I've discovered that I'm not quite so willing to return to the darkness as I thought.
After we make our way through the steam and slick rock piles, we settle on the far side of the springs. My voice carries only so far; I'm certain we're far enough away from the other tributes to give them privacy. Only then do I trail off. Dandy's wards have held nicely but Aline's have done pretty much fuck all. I check the henna tube. "It needs wetting," I explain and then slink off, guilt a more powerful suppressant than babble. I can hardly think about me while I think about our bonded and broken Career.
Away from the glass canoe, I unravel my fanny pack to inspect my things. The henna is, in fact, still viable. There's enough to ink Aline anew and some left over. I ponder the bunch of bananas the leaf stuck to the steam. It would lovely paper. If only -
HONK.
"You don't have to remind me I'm being watched," I murmur, before I recognize the intrusion as the gift it is.
