what a pleasure (Juice)

[Molly]

~Reid
walking around today i notice all the tall buildings and people around them. Everyone seemed to be working on a project one way or another. People were adding types of different wood- mahogany- to build a house on a flat peice of land. From my research i would say that it would become a nice house once its done.

I think of all the things that could be made with that wood, besides a house. Something that somebody would use, that would help someone in need. Well besides that someone that needed a house.

I trip on something and brush myself off, i look down and see i tripped over a hammer.

~Kelly
Stupid Reid! always tripping over things, he needs to watch where he steps! After all this is my body too! Ugh, sometimes i dont know what to do with him! Tripping over a hammer! well at least i came in when i did, imagine if i didnt.

I fix my shirt and and straighten up, pretending like i havent tripped over anything. I hope no one saw that. I sigh, figureing that someone must have seen it, after all people are outside today.

I grab a peice of my hair and push it behind my ear, making sure that it was out of my face for once. Reid needed to understand that its both of us in this body and thats that! I am not going anywhere and neither is he, we needed to make a comprimise.


I see someone now, barely a shadow in the distance. They look nice enough to talk to. And i feel talkative today. They began to climb up a tree, so it must be a lumber jack. I still didnt mind.

Walking over to the tree i looked up, it was a male. "Hi" i say, waving my arm a bit in his direction.

[juice431]

Quin began to climb the tree, hauling his axe with him. When he heard the voice calling down to him, she looked confused. Looking down he saw him."Oh, hello there. Having no clue how long they would talk, he thought it would be more comfortable on the ground. So carefully placing his arms and legs, he began to slid down the tree.

When his feet hit the ground, he brushed himself off. Smiling, he turned to the man in front of him."Ah, there we go, I think I can talk better down here."

[Molly]

~Kelly
The man slides down the tree, like a pro and i notice he brushes off his hands and turns around to face me.

I always forget that we share a body. I cant be my normal 'girly' self because this was Reid's body. I would always dress him up in the nicest clothes in the district though, feeling a need to show my side through him some way or another.

I dont know what to call myself when i talk to people, i cant call myself Kelly, because people around the District know this body as Reid.

"Hey, I'm Reid." I say, holding out my hand for him to shake. Because thats what men do. They shake, not hug, they were total opposites.

[juice431]

Reaching out and grabbing Reid's hand, he shook it. Smiling at him, he nodded and said,"Well, Reid. Nice to meet you, my name is Quin." Quin looked around at all the tress, thinking on how long it would take him to cut the required number of trees so he could leave. Placing his axe in the ground, he coughed a little

[Molly]

~Kelly
Ew, it looks like he wanted me to help him cut down some trees, now its time for Reid to come back, i do not do this type of stuff!

~Reid
My vision comes back and i notice i am in front of someone.
Quin my mind told me. he wants you to help him cut down some trees, i supose.

"So, Quin, you want some help with the trees. I usually work on anything i can get my hands on." I say, dusting my hands off and wipeing them on my pants. NO! dont do that! you will ruin the material!

Sometimes my mind puzzles me. I dont even think its mine half the time.

[juice431]

"Oh, um you don't have to do that. I can get to it later.."Quin smiled to Reid again, trying to think of something to talk about."So, what about these games..so far they look.."Quin didn't trust himself to finish the sentence. How was he suppose to know if Reid felt the same way about the cruel, repulsive games.

[Molly]

~Reid
I noticed that this guy wanted to say something else, something more.

"Have you been watching the games?" I ask.

This year the games just seemed more, alive to me, it spoke to me, more so than the last few years. But the name Quin rang a bell. I have been watching the Games for over Twenty Years and no ones name reminded me so much like Quin's did.

Come on Reid! Dont be so stupid draw the connection.

OOC: what was your sisters first and last name and what year of the games would she be from?

[juice431]

OOC: Jenna Ezamiel

Quin was silent for a moment, the year his sister was in the games flashed in his mind. The most vivid image was when his sister was killed. Quins jaw was clenched as he stared at the ground, his hands curled into fist, forgetting Reid was in-front of him, he looked up and smiled at him."Yes, I have been watching them, they were pretty slow the opening day....wouldn't you say?" Quin blinked for a moment, and it flashed in his mind again, his sister running, her pleading, and the cannon firing signaling her death, he would never see the person he was so close to...again.

[Molly]

~Reid
I notice the topic of the games struck a nerve with him because his jaw clenched- signifying that he wanted to rant about something and his fist was clenched- he was angry.

But then again i would be angry too, watching innocence being killed for the Capitols enjoyment.

"I dont think we are going to have a Victor this year. They wont do as well." My Voice stayed monotone making sure not to upset him.

Thats when it hit me. I noticed the striking resemblence to Jenna Ezamiel. I remember her saying something about her family. This must be her brother. I could see how some- most of their features matched each others.

I remember her death. Died in the blood bath, like many tributes. But this must be different for him. To remember that scene forever.

Well i wouldnt know what to do if i lost you. I mean, think about it.

There was the voice again. It had to be comming from my mind- hormones.

[juice431]

Squinting his eyes, he opened them, coughing, he looked up at Reid again."I don't think..the gamemakers would allow them to not have a victor, the Capitol would not be happy. Maybe they shouldn't be..."Quin need to walk, so he motioned for Reid to follow.

Quin began to walk through the woods, walking past other men working, stopping when they moved the equipment, and what not. Walking in between fallen logs, and fallen limbs.

As they walked, Quin stopped, as a man cut through the last of a log, he heard it. How could he forget it. The whole world heard it, his sisters final scream. Then, it was gone. Shrugging it off, he looked around, quiet enough."Ah, much more quiet, sorry. I was, um getting a headache..."

[Molly]

~Reid
we walked along the forest floor, looking at the logs and other fallen branches and what not that have landed and made home on the forest floor.

I knew his sister had been in the games, i dont want to bring it up, but i want him to know.

why would you want him to know about his sister? do you want to add to his misery? look at him! he looks pretty sad without you having to say anything to him!

"Its ok to be sad sometimes. I get it. I understand. People think that if they ignore what happened- and i am not saying you are- it will go away. Thats not how the mind works." Its hard to explain exactly how i know so much on almost every subject or topic.

[juice431]

"She was my best friend....my best friend, and I couldn't do a thing to stop her..from...dying..I can't get the image out of my head, also when I close my eyes, always. I don't think I can ever forget her,or what happened to her.Quin slumped down on a tree trunk, placing his head between his knees.

Looking up at the sky, he soon felt awful for doing this to Reid, the person he just met. Well, there goes another one..


"Reid, I am sorry for doing this to you, it's just, she was my best friend. But I will never forget her, she gave me a locket. I wear it at all times."

Quin reaches down the collar of his shirt and pulls out a shiny silver locket. Opening it up, it had a picture of his family on one side, and one of him and his sister on the other."She is always with me, always."

[Molly]

~Reid
I look at the locket that Quin showed me. It was very touching to see that he wore such an item around his neck.

"ugh, you know calling her your best friend shows great ties to attachment. The locket may also help with her. I have been in a situation like that-like this. Ugh the- the locket seems like it means a lot to you."

~Kelly
Quin looked so sad, with his head being held by his hands, him moping around about his sister. I couldnt imagine lossing someone so close to me.

"Hey," i say gentley placing my hand on his shoulder, "its ok now. She wouldnt want you to be moping around. I know i wouldnt want that." I say, my voice light. Well, the voice i tried to convey tried to be light but it ended up sounding a bit different than i expected it to, considering it came from Reid.

[juice431]

"I would not sell this locket for anything, she gave this to me right before she left. You're right, if she saw me mopping around like this, she would be angry, she would want me to live life to fullest, or something like that. Thanks Reid, you're a um, good friend."

Quin stood up and brushed the dirt off his pants, smiling to Reid, he nodded at him. He stuffed the locket back down inside his shirt, and looked happy after that little episode. Strecthing, he looked over at Reid.

"So, Reid. Tell me a little about yourself. That is, if you don't mind, of course."

[Molly]

~Kelly
He wanted to know about me, well about Reid. I was Kelly, not Reid. I couldnt answer that question. It would be from my perspective and not his. And that wouldnt be right, no matter how much i wanted to stay with Quin. Time to go back. Sighing i slip back into the crevice in Reid's mind, waiting for the next oportunity to show up where i can come back out.

~Reid
He wants to know about your past. the voice said inside my head.

"Well ah, i do reasearch. I'm an only child; i dont have any more family. All whithered away. Accually, not whithered, people dont do that. More like decomposed-" I pause for a moment probably guessing i am freaking him out. "sorry. Ugh, im twenty Six. Theres really not that much about me. Nothing satisfing or interesting like yours."

HA! like theres nothing interesting, p-lease!

I stick my hands in my short pockets and push a peice of hair out of my face. I crouch down and grab a peice of lumbar. "this," i say signifying to the peice of lumber, "is about all i can do."
