"I volunteer!" I shout before I even realize what happened. The tiny boy looks at me, and I feel I stole something from him. It's almost as though he hates me for what I've done, but I don't care. It's the only way the girl I care for will realize I exist.

They’re mean on the best of days, and I don’t think I could stand to look at the malice in their eyes that says ”I hope it’s you, because what are you worth?” To them, the answer is nothing.

Worse, somehow: what if they’re right, and I live like this forever?

Head held high, she stands in front of the crowd as if they can’t see every one of her scars — bite marks on her knees and the edges of her palms, scratches of self-harm up her arms and down her neck, knife wounds on the walls of her dead brother’s bedroom, mirrored in the wreckage of her scowl.
~ Denali Lyons (tbh the whole post), District Five female L△LIA

Now Jacob is reliant on my doses, I am reliant on his money and Teddy…he is reliant on the Capitol licking his ass. Well it is going to be the last year where I must stare at his face on that stage.

~ Temple Jones, District Ten female sbeeg


Some sort of soda in his veins, "oh c'mon, what're you doing being all mopey!" Big goofy smile, stealing hair pins and ties. Always a mix reaction of either hate or relief; that at least he could always find a reason to be happy.
