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'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.

	Good. ~~I thought you didn't want to be part of their~~ This one seems like a good one to sit out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	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)

	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)

	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)

	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.

	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)

	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)
