I'll trade you. It's supposed to be 15 here tonight and it's still snowing. It's too early for this bs.

Here I thought we were going to get some updates after that lag incident last month. I'll probably resize it later or make new ones with the correct dimensions since I know them now. I really thought it was 160, but idk where I got that number from now.

Well don't be kissing and lingering on her sister when she's so secretly in love with you, Gale, gosh! Nah, but for real. I'm trying to give her flaws since she always seemed so lovely and pure in the books. My reasoning is that she was a younger teenager then, and she's also Katniss's sister, so why wouldn't she have some sort of attitude once in a while? Tell me if I'm OOC about it, though. I'm trying my best.

Poor Peeta ;n; Why can't he just be happy and free?

Don't procrastinateee.
Pineapple drinks and Liam Neeson hanging out on the beach. It sounds perfect, especially because it's stupidly cold here right now.

Ugh, I made my icon too big on accident D; I thought it was 160x160 but it's 128x128 and I don't feel like resizingggg. /first world problems.

I'll get started on something real quick c: although I feel like Prim is mad at Gale and is just like >_________> omg shut up, when he's talking. Who knows, maybe she can be a little snarky instead of getting temporary tattoos.

Oh no D; poor Peeta. He doesn't want to hang out with Snow. He wants to decorate the cakes and be with his friends. He's a delicate baby covered in flour.

You're making me so excited for these drawings!
Only if Liam Neeson agrees to have drinks out of a coconut with us.

Okay, good. I didn't want to look too eager for Christmas but I miss being on tumblr where everyone sticks santa hats on everything and it's super cute.

Haha, they're finally going to bond over their hatred of the Capitol.

Lmao, imagine Prim going through a rebellious phase where she gets her tongue pierced and sneaks out at night. Sigh, Katniss, you're too much of a mom.

Aw, good guy Peeta <3 I'm sure Prim and Gale would appreciate that and Haymitch and Katniss would understand. Now I feel bad that he's going to be taken by Snow.

I love art because I can't draw for shit, so I'm still excited regardless.

Yes, good uwu Prim is not a Haymitch fan I: but she'll get over it eventually.
How else am I supposed to meet Liam Neeson? I:

Side note, do you think it's too early for Christmas icons? Because it's snowing here already and I made some and want to use them >__>

Aw, I think Prim will end up really liking Effie. All that makes sense, so we'll go with that time line. I can't wait for the ball, it's going to be so pretty and everyone is going to be dressed so nice. I'm also really looking forward to Johanna fucking shit up, haha. Just because they're about to fight to the death doesn't mean there's no time to be jealous!

Omg, Katniss stop D; Prim has morals! She's not a baby.

Hmm, I agree and disagree. I think hiding in plain sight would be a good idea, but we can go either way. I was just thinking of a way to bring Peeta in and kill two birds with one stone.

Yes, she's a cutie uwu and psh, it won't be hollow and awkward. I'm looking forward to seeing everything. Even if you are drunk and drawing!

Whatever ends up working for you. I have an absolutely free night and am pretty much just sitting here trying to convince myself that I'm enjoying the Sims 4. I do have a group thing that I could reply to, but there are new people that need to post in it first, so I'm going to leave it until I think I'm needed.
Ooh, send him. I might have to get kidnapped if it means I can meet Liam Neeson.

Hah, I think a lot of shows like that had weird fandoms. I wasn't into roleplaying back then, but there was no way it could have been more strange than the Sonic fandom.

Aw, poor Katniss :c That's sad that she won't find any comfort in it this time around. I think Prim will be really fascinated with everything, and it could be a nice distraction from what she assumes is her unavoidable death. And yes, all the food. I think we said we'd do Peeta's party the night before the Games? But then we also wanted Gale and Prim to have a moment in his room at the same time. We could do that like, way later at night after the party. We'll have to do training before, obv, and interviews is before the tributes show off to the gamemakers, right? I feel like I need to rewatch both movies now. I think if we tackle one thing at a time, our pacing will be fine.

Haymitch doesn't know why you're smacking him, Katniss I: knock it off. I can definitely see her and Johanna not liking each other and Prim will be put off by her as well because who gets naked in front of a bunch of strangers?? And Prim's recast is named Skyler Samuels. There's a lot of really nice side profile pictures of her on google and I actually found out that she was the kidnapped girl in those first few episodes of this season's AHS.

Oh gosh, the two of them wrestling. I feel like Haymitch wouldn't stand a chance. Gale is pretty big. I think when they get time with their mentor, it would be a good opportunity for Peeta to reveal the plan to Gale and Prim, or just one of them and then they inform the other. And it would put a little bit of mistrust between him, Katniss and Haymitch if Peeta is choosing to focus on Gale and Prim. It will amp up the false plan he's going to give them and make it more dramatic for when we have our big climax of busting out of the arena. And I like the idea of Prim and Gale making friends with the other kids. It's definitely going to be emotional.

Go right ahead /encourages. I literally have nothing to do right now.
Well I'm going to keep posting and then you'll see *shakes fist*

I don't know. I used to love it and the art was always super cute.

My favorite thing from the first movie was the wall with the hologram over it and they could choose to be in whatever environment they liked. When the Sims 3 came out with the into the future EP, I was so excited to see that something like that was an item. I'm not one for super modern stuff, but the suites always looked really pretty. It will be nice to work it into the RP because it's going to be so different for Prim and Gale. Haha, maybe Johanna can get naked in the elevator again and make a few enemies early. Although Haymitch will probably openly appreciate it~ jelly, Katniss??

As for the training, I agree that we're going to have to pick and choose. There's so much that goes into it. I've decided that Haymitch is pretty much going to swing his ax around and he might wrestle or something just for the hell of it. Tbh, he's probably going to be talking to the older tributes more than anything. I've decided that Prim is going to do that matching plant thing from the first movie that Foxface was good at and it makes sense since she spent so much time on that book. She's probably going to try and stay busy with that instead of doing combat training but we all know that isn't going to fly. And then we'll highlight Katniss and her archery? and whatever you'd like to do with Gale. I think we should have them training all together for a post or two as well just to make it clear that 12 has an alliance. We'll sprinkle in some other tributes along the way to set things up for the arena too, imagine.
You really don't have to worry <3 A lot of my threads have slowed waaay down and even if I didn't have any other partners or things to do, I'd still get on here to post and talk to you. I'm 1000% invested in what we've come up with and I want to play out everything. Plus, you're good people c:

You have my word that I'm not going to go all Danny Phantom on you, haha.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well. I figured we could introduce Finnick right before the parade, have him get in there all Aquaman style and be his shining, lovely self. We can probably bring in Johanna too if you like and then we'll get through the ceremony. Still Katniss and Prim in one chariot, right?
Aw, omg. That's so sweet :3 I promise that I'm not getting bored of this RP or you and I can't see that happening now or at any point in the future. You really don't have to worry, but it does make me happy that you want me to stick around. I've been ditched by partners that I thought were friends before and it really is shitty. I swear I won't do that to you. We have an active OOC and IC and you're pretty much the partner that I talk to the most around here. I'm glad you're as invested in this as I am because I always think I get way too into things and then I worry that I'm being annoying.

And same goes for you <3 If you need anything, I'm right here.

That sounds fine with me. I'll see how yours ends and then decide, but I probably will end up skipping. There's only so much they can do on the train besides watch old footage and eat new food. We'll give Prim and Katniss some sister time and then get them all prettied up for the parade.
Ooh, show me when you're done :3 but allow me to encourage your life goals of having an infinite amount of empty Riesling bottles.

I hope you liked it! I woke up too early and couldn't get back to sleep, so I figured I would be productive. It's snowing here, though and my fingers feel really slow and stiff. It's weird D;
There was a reason that Haymitch never wanted to bond with the tributes, and this was it. Caring about them only to watch them die later on was always hard, but he thought he had been in the clear when it came to Katniss. At the very least, the former Victor knew he would be dead before he had to watch her suffer. Although he hadn't mentioned it to Katniss, or even Peeta, Haymitch didn't suspect that he would last very long once the games truly began. All of the training he had done, getting sober, that was to ease Katniss's mind, to alleviate some of the stress and worry that she always seemed to carry with her and make it easier for her to make it to the end. With Gale and Prim now in the games with her, Haymitch knew he wouldn't be needed as much—she would be taken care of and although Haymitch had next to zero confidence in Prim, Gale was a different story.

For now, Haymitch was content to sit with Katniss and keep his thoughts to himself as she stayed by his side. The close contact was strange for him, but the dark-haired didn't seem to be protesting. Now that he thought of it, this was the most relaxed he had seen her in weeks. Haymitch was glad that he could do something for her, as he was unsure that his impromptu pep talk had really done the trick. Whether Katniss had taken it to heart or not, they were no longer fighting and that meant he would be able to help her play the game better.

When the door slid open, Haymitch scooted away from Katniss, surprised to see that Effie had come to join them. The wig-wearing woman was sensitive, and he was surprised that she had recovered from Katniss's outburst so quickly. Regardless, he didn't want the Capitol escort to see him sitting so closely with the former tribute, worried that she might take something the wrong way. Then again, Haymitch didn't think there would be any confusion when Effie knew that he and Katniss couldn't even have a civil conversation most of the time. Effie wouldn't make that kind of mistake, or at least, Haymitch hoped she wouldn't. His feelings for the Girl On Fire were purely platonic, after all.

After his senseless worrying, Haymitch filtered back into the conversation and agreed to go and talk with Peeta. It was hard to think of the boy as a mentor now, and Haymitch had always thought that Katniss would be the one to take over for him. That had been the plan until President Snow decided to bend the rules of the games just to take out one teenaged girl with a defiant streak. Haymitch hoped that Peeta would be able to handle himself when it came time to secure sponsors. The blond was charismatic, a real people person, but the lives on the line were personal this time and Peeta was easily distracted by his feelings, always ruled by his heart and Haymitch suspected that the other victor still carried a torch for Katniss.

Out in the dining car, Prim had found another candy to try when Katniss entered. She was happy to see that her sister was still in one piece, but she was surprised that Haymitch had been able to do anything for her. The blonde was truly worried about the older girl, and hoped to comfort her when they had a private moment together. As it currently stood, everyone was fussing over whatever they could, and there was no opportunity to talk, or even give Katniss a real hug. However, Gale seemed to take care of that rather quickly and Prim felt a wave of guilt wash over her for even being a little bit jealous over the interaction. She was on the way to the Capitol, more than likely going to die in two weeks time, and she was still worried over something that was really never going to happen. She needed to focus on something more substantial, something real that could help Katniss and didn't have anything to do with wanting Gale to see her as more than just his crush's sister.

“That's a good idea,” she agreed after hearing they would be watching footage of the past games. Before, Prim had never paid much attention to any of it, thinking it was brutal and sick, but it was best to learn what she could while the information was available.

“It's not just one and two you need to be worried about this year,” Haymitch mentioned. He was the last to enter the room and took a seat off in the corner to observe everyone else. He already knew most of these victors, and had spent the last decade viewing their strengths and weaknesses first hand as mentors. Often, they would comment on what tributes were doing wrong, what they would have done different and sometimes if there was enough alcohol going around, they would open up about the ins and outs of their win. That information was the most valuable, although Haymitch hadn't thought it would ever come in handy.

There was a lot of footage to sift through, but Johanna seemed to be of particular interest. She was a different kind of person, possibly more angry than Katniss, but at least ten times more likable. “Don't count her out,” Haymitch said, shaking his head. “She stays in shape and she's got nothing left to lose anymore. If you're smart, you four'll win her over and get her on your side. You don't want that ax of hers coming for your head.” The majority of the games was strategy, once everyone understood that, it would be smooth sailing.

As Johanna's games concluded, and Effie started to spout off about the stylists and the god awful parade, Haymitch popped in another tape. Finnick Odair was one of the youngest tributes to ever win the games, and he was just as deadly as any fresh, young career. “You might want to get this one to like you too,” he mentioned, tapping a finger on the screen. “If you don't, and there's any water around, you're as good as dead.”

“Don't you mean we?” Prim asked, feeling uncomfortable with all of this. She stayed close to Katniss, leaning against her sister as Finnick speared a tribute through the chest with his trident behind Haymitch's shoulder. He didn't look pleased with the reminder that he too was in the games.

Snorting, Haymitch sat back down. “He already likes me.” Running a hand through his hair, he then turned his attention Effie. “And would you stop trying to get them excited about the ceremony? That doesn't mean anything. This. This is where everything happens.” He pointed to the television as Finnick's games played on. “They need to study. Not worry about which blue-skinned freak is going to primp their hair tomorrow.”
