Vera Rhodes
The train ride to the Capitol was amazing, and now Vera sits on a couch in the lobby of the district eleven floor wondering what to do. Sometimes obeying her parents pays off, but she's here at the Capitol, and seeing as much as she saw through the windows of the train as it flew by makes her want to know more. Why is Father so protective right now? Not touching anything takes all the fun out of it, and now Vera wants to explore everything. She sits and waits until everyone is out of sight, and she waits some more making sure nobody returns back. A couple of days is all it took to figure out the schedule of those living on this floor, and she wants to keep it that way.
It doesn't take much, but after the sunsets, and doors are closed, Vera sneaks through the halls. Tiny toes tapping ever so lightly against the floor. Sometimes her eyes find a random Avox standing in the corner, and all she wants is to make sure nothing will happen;
They can't speak. It'll all be okay.
And she stops when she's standing before the door of her brother. Manwe came along with them, and she wants to explore with him. To see everything that's being kept away from her. She carefully sneaks inside, and she sneaks up to his bed. Sometimes startling people isn't fun, yet she knows that being too loud can cause chaos nobody needs right now. She takes a deep breath before tapping his foot.
"Manwe, dad's asleep. Let's go explore." Keeping her voice down is hard because so much excitement bubbles within threatening to burst at any given second. "Just have to keep quiet. There's a whole world out there." Vera takes a step back towards the door keeping her ears open listening for any sounds out of the ordinary. Sometimes a girl just wants to have fun with her brother, and that might mean getting in trouble.
