Peeta and (after some hesitation and deleting/retyping of the name) Cindy
I think I'm fighting a crazy Roman woman with a sword who's trying to keep slaves. People can't keep slaves here can they? I thought this place was supposed to be better than where we're from.

~~You've got principles, but jesus~~ Do you have a plan for now to deal with her in a fight?

I know she's roman, I'm assuming that means close fighting with a sword. I don't know her, but according to the internet she's got more than just your average physical abilities. Read up if you're stuck on the idea of doing this. You're going to need the intel. I'm looking for more information.

	Hit her from a distance and stay under cover. It looks like she can beat me pretty easily in a physical fight, especially if she has power. It's not like I'm excited about this though. If other people step up I'm more than happy to let them handle it. Zatanna's going after her, and she has her own magic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bingo. Distance is about the only advantage you have, and the fact that you're accurate with an arrow. Didn't say excited. Said stuck on it. I'm sure you're not excited. Don't know Zatanna, but I know that when it all boils down to it Loki spoke up and there are others that have a problem with it. People have got your back and her's too.

	~~This is not the~~ ~~They're not our pr~~ ~~Cassie has powers too, she s~~ I'll back you up, Katniss. I'm at least glad to hear there's no slaves here. [Cindy] ...why are you encouraging her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta spyerella 2012-05-16 02:51 am UTC (link)
	Because there are more powerful individuals already jumping in to take care of this. Including me. But if she's going to stand up for people, then she needs to know what comes with it, assessing everything. She's not going to have to fight anyone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cindy peetanotpita 2012-05-16 02:56 am UTC (link)
	Can you be sure? Please don't let her fight. We're still gaining back the weight we lost in the arena...especially her, after Pestilence. Neither of us is fit to fight like we normally would be, right now... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta spyerella 2012-05-16 03:32 am UTC (link)
	Peeta, take a breath and calm down. She's not fighting anyone. Loki stepped up, I stepped up, and Hercules stepped up, among other people. She wont have to do anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cindy peetanotpita 2012-05-16 03:55 am UTC (link)
	I got that much, Cindy. But not having to and not doing so are different. So I'm asking...please don't let her. I hate this form of communication; there's too much room for miscommunication for lack of tone... (Reply to this) (Parent)

~~You'd be more of a hindrance than anything else if I'm sneaking around at a distance. You have a talent for finding breakable twigs with your feet.~~ Thanks Peeta. It looks like I'm out though, or I'm staying out if more powerful people step in. You know better than anyone I don't have a death wish, so if someone stronger wants to stop it they can go ahead. I just couldn't let that happen here. This place is supposed to be different.

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-16 04:19 pm UTC (link)
	She got into this mess because of her sisters. Then, with the slaves... I have to hope Prim comes here. If she does I don't want it to be like home. I don't care about their war, but this felt different. I'm not making a habit of getting involved. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 02:35 am UTC (link)
	I hope she does, too, Katniss. I hope not, though...honestly, I don't like it, all their fighting. I feel we've done more than our fair share of that in this life... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 02:49 am UTC (link)
	I can't really imagine a life without something I have to fight. ~~This is why you should be the one to go home if we're sent back, I couldn't imagine that kind of life, much less live it. You could.~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 02:55 am UTC (link)
	Their war is not our problem; it's theirs. I don't want to fight anymore...I'm tired. Aren't you? ~~Why can't we just settle down and enjoy the quiet together? Is that so much to ask?~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 03:09 am UTC (link)
	Of course I'm tired. I've been tired since I was eleven. I want to stay out of their war, but I wanted to stay out of the Games too. I'm never just going to assume I'll get that choice, and if something seems threatening I'm not just going to wait for it to get me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 03:12 am UTC (link)
	And I'm not saying you should. But we don't have to fight here. There are others more than willing to go into the fray. Let them do it. Let us rest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 03:20 am UTC (link)
	I don't know if I believe we'll really get that chance. I don't think I'd know how to take it if we did. ~~Don't you get it? You're wasting your time on me. I'll never get married, I'll never really be able to be what you want me to be~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 03:32 am UTC (link)
	Well...I think we might. Just...I don't know, try. I want to go to school...maybe get a job. What have you always wanted to do but you couldn't back home? Start with that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 04:11 am UTC (link)
	I never thought about things like that. Never really saw the point. Even in the victor's village I didn't know what to do with myself, I just went back to the woods and hunted for Gale's family. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 04:15 am UTC (link)
	Well there's no one to hunt for here. Think about it now? Talk it out with me. There's gotta be something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 04:53 am UTC (link)
	Well, I used to think maybe I could find a way to get Prim a cow in her own name, something they wouldn't take back when I died and she stopped getting my victor's benefits, but she isn't here so I don't think that counts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Not here, no. What about your bows...? You like that stuff. There's a guy who offers jobs at a big corporation. I think he's from here, he said you don't have to worry about identification. It's weapons technology. He said anything and everything...maybe you could design the next best bow. Like the one your friend has, or something? It's just a thought. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Peeta tindernest 2012-05-17 05:06 am UTC (link)
	I'm not really any good at making things or designing things. I wish I was. You know how much some of the better artisans could make themselves at the Hob repairing things or selling a new thing they made? More than I made off a rabbit. I don't know if I'm good at much besides staying alive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 05:10 am UTC (link)
	You'll never know until you try, though... Maybe you could just be a consultant. Or a tester. I don't know...I'm just trying to help. And then, besides, you'd be making money and you'd be taking care of yourself without my help just like you want. I know that's what you want, even if you won't admit it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Cindy and Peeta tindernest 2012-05-16 11:26 am UTC (link)
	I'm stuck on doing what I have to. If someone else takes care of her first I will be excited about that. Reminds me though, I met this guy, Oliver, who has the best bow I've ever seen. Stainless steel, but it looks light, has arrows that don't just hit a target, they do all different things. Do they make bows like that here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cindy and Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-16 04:11 pm UTC (link)
	What kind of things...? That sounds weird. ~~I thought bows were just for hunting~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cindy and Peeta tindernest 2012-05-16 04:21 pm UTC (link)
	It's beautiful is what it is. I didn't get a chance to talk to him much about it when we met, he'd just sort of appeared in the park, but he uses it for fighting, and he beats people who have guns. ~~If I had a bow like that I~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cindy and Katniss peetanotpita 2012-05-17 02:37 am UTC (link)
	A bow can beat a gun in this world...? That's impressive. (Reply to this) (Parent)
