THE CAPITOL
THE REMAKE CENTRE

THE SCENE ON the ground floor of the Remake Center was quite different in comparison to previous years. Usually, the tributes stay glued to their chariots, only talking to their district partner and mentor.

This time round, it's very lively. The victors move around, talking to one another.

Catlin sighs as she and Finnick walk away from the male tribute of District 6.

Finnick grins, bumping Catlin's shoulder with his, "What's up?"

Catlin nods her head in the direction of the man, "He's just so snobbish. Why did we have to go over to him of all people? He never fails to put me in a bad mood."

"Oh come on Dolphin," Finnick chuckles and he wraps his arm around Catlin's shoulders, "It's called being social. Don't be so dramatic."

Catlin looks at Finnick and makes a face, "I'm not being dramatic. And get off." She mutters, shrugging Finnick's arm off her.

Finnick raises his eyebrows at Catlin, his grin growing wider. Out of the corner of his eye, he notices Katniss walking over to District 12's chariot. Finnick's smile only gets bigger as he starts to make his way over to Panem's most recent victor, pulling Catlin along with him.

"What are we doing now?"

"Going to talk to the Girl on Fire. Now just stop being so mopey for two minutes."

"Fine but she's the last person I'm talking to. I'm not talking to anyone else, you hear me?"

"Yeah yeah. Whatever you say, Dolphin."

"Chase, just go talk to her. I don't get what this big fuss is about." Pierre groans. Pierre has spent who knows what amount of time, trying to get Chase to go over and talk to Katniss. But he hasn't had much success.

"I know, I know. I really want to go over, I do. But she's just kind of.. scary." Chase argues, staring at Katniss.

"Chase I swear if you don't get your shit together and just go in the next two minutes, I will drag you over myself." Pierre crosses his arms, his foot tapping against the ground impatiently.

"Okay okay! I'm going." Chase exclaims. He walks about three metres before turning around and speed walking back over to Pierre.

"Oh no. Look, she's busy talking to those two. Aww, that's such a shame. I was really looking forward to talking to her." Chase rambles.

Pierre rolls his eyes, running a hand down his face as he sighs, "I don't know how I put up with you."

Julius and Elise stand next to eachother, albeit a few feet apart. The tension between the pair from District 2 was so alarmingly thick that not even a knife would manage to cut through it.

Julius' jaw clenches tighter every time one of the tributes steal a glance at him. His patience with them wearing thin very quickly. In his mind, he thinks they're just being a bunch of hypocrites. They all glare at Julius like he's some monstrous murder, but if that's the case then the rest are too. They all killed people to survive, Julius doesn't understand why his victory is considered any different. It's ridiculous, they're all just being twits.

Elise sighs to herself, staring at the floor. Her and Julius have been putting a lot of distance between them since the Reaping. But her mind can't stop wandering back to that one moment. That one moment where they fought together back in District 2. The way they just gazed into eachother's eyes for a moment. Elise felt something when it happened, she just didn't know what.

"Hi." A voice breaks Elise out of her train of thought. She turns her head and is met with the girl from District 5, a kind smile on her face.

"Um," Elise pauses for a moment, slightly taken aback by the girl's bright demeanour, it really wasn't something that she was expecting, "Hi."

"I'm Saffron." Saffron extends her hand out to Elise.

Elise takes it, shaking it lightly, "Elise." She says softly. Elise can't help but feel bad for Saffron, having to go through the games a second time at her young age. It wasn't fair, none of this was fair. But then again it's the Capitol and they don't give a shit about what's fair and what isn't.

Saffron can feel someone's eyes on her and turns to see Sichou. She smiles and waves at her to which Sichou rolls her eyes and with a shake of her head, looks away.

┏━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┓
┗━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┛

Sichou stood by herself. She didn't know where her district partner had gone off to and frankly she did not care either. That guy can go fuck himself, the little asshole he is.

Johanna spots Sichou on her own and slides on over. She points at what she's wearing, "Seriously, my stylist is an absolute idiot. Every single fucking year, it's just trees. Clearly the bitch thinks her sole purpose is to make us look like fucking bimbos."

Sichou and Johanna's relationship is, well, interesting. They're good friends.. with benefits. The two girls are very similar, especially with their shared hatred for the Capitol.

"This whole thing is fucking stupid." Sichou mumbles, "We were promised peace if we won the games and now they just rip it away from us? I swear I'm going to kill these fucking sadists myself."

Before Johanna can think of a reply, music starts and the wide doors open, revealing the cheering crowd of the Capitol on the other side. District 1's chariot rolls out onto the Avenue of the Tributes, signalling the start of the parade.

a/n ::
hii! so i'm going to try write as many chapters as i can for the next two weeks because once school starts again, updates will probably become a lot slower. a bit of a short chapter but i just wanted to write some oc interactions and some oc & l/i interactions and i really wanted to get another chapter out today <3. also i've made pinterest boards for each oc (my user on there is the same as this one), their interview outfits are in there if you'd like to have a look at them and tell me what you think or if you want me to change anything. i'm not the best at describing outfits so i thought if there are clear images it might make it a bit easier to follow. i wasn't really sure on the parade outfits though so you can think of them however you'd like. as always, if you spot any mistakes, let me know because i haven't proofread this!

xx, izzy
