First Swing: Video DAY 319
[Johanna flicks on the video with a glare and the room around her is in complete disarray. She's stripped out of the suit and she's sitting on the floor as naked as the day she was born. She pushes to her feet, hand moving to rest on her hip and she's still glaring because fuck this place. When she does finally decide to speak, her voice is a little hoarse... Probably because she's been going A LOT of shouting lately.]

So found myself an empty enough place to stay. Like the decor? [Sarcasm, it is her friend.] Sooo, seems like you've all gotten really comfortable on this piece of shit we've all found ourselves in which, come on, is fucking pathetic. You're all just prisoners here, but you've made "friends" [She bites that last word out]... yeah. How sweet.

And this?!

[She points to her collar and scowls.]

This isn't a fancy froufrou fashion accessory. This is bullshit. I've spent my entire life being controlled by some fucked up Government, and now some fucking wardens think I'm going to fall in line for them?!

Well, fuck that!

[She takes a deep breath, rolls her shoulders and calms herself down some, well at least she appears calm.]

Look, I know not everyone can be falling for this crap, right? Because this -- [She spreads her arms out side, motioning around with small waves of her hands.] this is all a bunch of shit set up by the Capitol to try and get us all in line.

	Spaceships? What kind of drugs do they have you on? [Nope, she sure doesn't believe him. While he doesn't look like a Morphling, he sure is acting like one.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Oh wow, he sounds just like Haymitch which is seriously disturbing. But really.]

Call me that again and I'll stab you right in the face. [She's so sweet, isn't she? But she'll play his game of being from different worlds for a moment.]

My world... In my world they make us send children to fight against each in in Games. They make each district send two - a boy and a girl between the ages of 12 and 18 and they fight each other in an arena set up by the Capital and they fight until there is only one tribute left alive. [She frowns and shrugs.] I won my Game four years back and was suppose to be safe afterwards but obviously not.

So yeah, I guess you can say my world is corrupt.

Oh you'd fit right in with my crew. Sound a bit like my first mate.

[His jovial smile fades though as she continues. By the time she's done, his face as gone hard.]

Ain't they all. Mine takes geniuses and tortures them til they go crazy. No one knows why, they just do. Fact... they're a big fan of torture out in the black.

[Nothing like the games though. At least, nothing people know about.]

That stinks.

[Seriously though, it did and Johanna felt bad for those smart people but she wasn't likely to show it. The only emotion she was good at showing was anger because it was the only one that got her anywhere.]

They don't care if we're smart or strong... They do what they want with us. They do what they want with our families to make sure we all stay in line, but it gets harder for them when there's no one left for them to use.

[Which ended up happening with her. They'd run out of people to use against her.]

	Easier to govern a group of stupid disheartened people than those willing to fight. Likely why they spent so long fighting us for the Alliance (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess. [She shrugs her shoulders.] But give those stupid disheartened people an even dumber hero or heroine and they'll do a lot actually. [At least she hopes so because if her getting caught by the Capital resulted in nothing? She was going to super pissed off.] How long is long for you? They've been doing these games for 75 years.

	Yers are smarter than mine then. They all just let the government take over an' don't care about the fact that they do all the shit they do. War was probably fifteen years. Joined up when I was old enough. Lost. Now I do what I can to stay out of their grasp. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: video noneleft 2015-05-04 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	Hopefully. I don't know if it works since I'm here. [It's a long story and she's still not sure this isn't some elaborate Capital scheme to break her.] I can't even stay out of their grasp so at least you're doing something right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh we get caught often enough. Just gotta worm yer way out one way or another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video noneleft 2015-05-17 03:24 am UTC (link)
	We get caught and they torture us or our families, if we have them. [She says it flippantly, like it doesn't even bother her because well, it doesn't. Not anymore.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: video cptn_tightpants 2015-05-19 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	There's that too. My family's gone for better of for worse. Just me they have to work with, an' I'm real good at withstanding torture. [Though he definitely prefers that none of his crew gets taken hostage. Mal's a liar if he doesn't consider them family.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: video noneleft 2015-06-04 08:52 am UTC (link)
	Mine's been gone for about about four years now. Want to know why? Because I wouldn't let Snow sell me to any of his skeezy Capital friends. [Not at first at least but once she'd figured what he was doing? She's quickly changed her mind only to find out she hadn't done it fast enough.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well it sounds like neither of us comes from a happy place then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Does anyone come from a happy place? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: video cptn_tightpants 2015-06-14 12:23 am UTC (link)
	None of the ones I've met personally it seems. But who knows. Talk to some an they might have a decent enough time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: video noneleft 2015-06-25 06:11 am UTC (link)
	Right, I'll get right on with talking to people. [No she won't. She has no plans on getting to know any of these people more than she has to. Nope.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Or don't. Don't matter much to me. Welcome to prison. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video noneleft 2015-08-04 06:11 am UTC (link)
	Thanks. [And with that, she just disconnects. She sees no reason to say bye, it's a waste of time.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
