Wander,

The roses bloomed for the first time yesterday. I can't believe it even grew, honestly Twelve isn't exactly the most fertile of lands, but somehow it pulled through. I don't know what I expected, but I'm happy that it survived. I used to stare at that rose in the vault every day, trying to stay sane. I just want to thank you. Life's been different since the 80th. It's been harder in some ways and easier in others. I just-yeah thanks Wander, that rose meant a lot more to me than I expected it to. My brother, Jack, (the one I called a coward) complimented them yesterday. He's happy I found something to keep me distracted from everything and he wanted to thank you for that too.

Also, he's kind of clinging to me now since then.

Not that I mind, but it's a lot. Kind of tired of seeing pity in his eyes, ya know?

I just wanted to thank you and check in with you. How's home been like? Is everything good there on the seaside? How's life been treating you? I miss everyone, do you?

Home's been good here. Well, for the most part. My dad is running for mayor. Something about for the future of your well-being son, as if I need to be thrust into the spotlight again. The reaping is coming up and I can see the worry in his and Jack's eyes. Home's been good though. Everyone's starting to get used to uh, my new lifestyle? The garden's been kind of fun since making it. I've been practicing some card tricks, but nothing like Mitchell used to do, but I'm getting there.

I miss everyone. Like the other day, I wish you had been here to show you the garden since everything is finally blooming this spring. That's why I think I'm gonna put Ace to use now. Send the bird around Panem delivering letters between all of us. I hope this reaches you and that Ace doesn't wonder off because of a bakery or anything like that. The bird is being spoiled by my mother I swear.

Anyways, I'll also attach a small pouch of some spices and herbs from the garden that grew. Mom said they'd be good on some of the fish from the lake somewhere around Twelve, but I thought they might be better for you in Four. Also I hope you don't mind me sending one of the roses back! Thought you could use one too! Hope to hear from you soon, Wander!

Your Friend,
Carter

Faux,

I owe you an apology.

There's a lot of pain in what we've been through and I'm only now starting to grasp it. I owe you an apology for how I treated Fiona, for betraying your trust out of spite and pain. We were all going through a lot of things. A lot of emotions that some days I still can't even begin to process. I was scared. I still am scared. The vault was the creation of so many of my nightmares as a kid.

Nightmares where I was lost, cramped, and broken. Who knew they'd become a reality. I'm sorry Faux for the pain I caused when we had already been through enough. Trauma does a lot of things to different types of people and I never could have thought this is what it did to me. I am really sorry for everything. If you ever need anything, I'm always a message away.

I'm really sorry, Faux.

I want to do better for people like you and for myself.

My dad is now mayor of Twelve now and I will be traveling through the districts for him.

I hope we could have lunch and catch up sometime?

~~Also so I could apologize in person to you.~~

Your very apologetic friend,
Carter

Pretty Boy Max,

I blame Jack for talking about you and then insisting on drinking too much. I'm pretty not here right now, but I wanted to write you. You're forgiven and all of that shit. We thought we were gonna die in this realistic bloody fight to the death and I would rather have died to someone than a creature with no morals. I forgive you for all of that, you should still tell Jack he's a coward. Bet you'd look great defending me. Jack also is the one shoving drinks into my hands and telling me "you should down that" as if alcohol will solve all of my issues.

Yeah, in my dreams.

Dying is supposed to be easy.

Living is wayyyyyyyy harder.

I hope you're doing alright pretty boy? Life got you down? or are you like some hero in Nine? I bet you're a hero there, I would treat you like a hero if I could. You deserve it for being too pretty. Anyways, my dad's mayor now and I am still here trying to survive. There's a lot of things I would like to say to you.

~~Sometimes all the good dreams I have are about you. Is that too much? Am I being too much? Eh I'm drunk.~~

Just make sure you stay safe, Max.

I miss you.

Hope to hear from you soon, Pretty Boy.

With much affection,
Carter Laws

P.S. Jack is a jerk and teases me about you.
