district 13
- You were born in District Thirteen.
- You've had a schedule printed on your arm each morning for as long as you can remember.
- Where to be, what to do, all planned out in regimented efficiency.
- You would push yourself - you worked faster, ate faster, spent the stolen minutes exploring the corridors, finding new objects you could take back to your room as toys.
- By the time you were ten you knew every hallway that the average citizen was permitted to enter.
- That caught the higher-ups' attention.
- They didn't like that.
- You were an embarrassment to the district.
- You would set a bad example for others.
- You were undermining the district's ideal of discipline.
- But, you were useful.
- And District Thirteen was always willing to make exceptions for those who were useful.
- Someone argued with someone on your behalf.
- You don't know the details. That's classified.
- But you start continually being given chances to prove yourself.
- And you rise
- and rise
- and rise.
- They don't completely trust you, not yet.
- After all, you're nothing like your brother: methodical, steady, constant.
- They'd prefer processes to black box magic.
- But sometimes, when things are urgent, they want the magic.
- You're happy to provide it.
