[DISTRICT FIVE FEMALE TRIBUTE CALLIDUS CARISUS is declared VICTOR of the SEVENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL HUNGER GAMES]
"Some had decided to nickname Carisus 'Foxface'. She was a cunning girl, with the elusive slyness of a fox; for that very reason (along with her flaming red hair and fox-like features), she would be deemed a fox for the rest of her days.
The Capitol did make very good use of that. They made her an animal motif; she looked good in red and orange, and whenever they could, they'd dress her up like that for public appearances. It wasn't too bad for her, it seemed; it was better than the Cheetah Boy from the 26th Game, and a lot better than the Cattle Dog Girl from the 39th Game.
She was a clever one, indeed, managing to valiantly defeat Thresh Ward and Cato Murdoch; two tributes who were known for strength and intelligence. Goes to show you that you don't need the biggest bulk to win..."

"We expected one of the Tributes to win, dammit, not someone who just sneaked around and hid the entire time!"

"It was such a thrill, indeed, to watch the little redhead scamper about in an attempt to save her own life! Never before had the Capitol seen someone like her manage to get so far in the Games, let alone beat them! Her family seemed pleased as puckleberry that she stayed alive for so long, and so were the rest of us.
The moment she managed to come to the Capitol and freely walk in the streets, we children scattered all around her, eager to hear it firsthand from the girl herself! Carisus seemed quite modest compared to those from District One and Two, and she was much more humble than others. We all asked the secret of her success, even though we had watched her on the telly for the past half a month.
She would never answer, the quiet girl she was. She'd simply shrug and say she'd prefer not to talk about it. We knew the games were bad, of course we did - but we never supposed it'd be too horrible! They're just games, after all!"

He's a thin one, looks sickly. But he seems to be healthy enough; I know Katniss and Gale feed them as often as they can. Economy has gotten slightly better, and with that the food supply has raised a bit. Inherited the Hawthorne and Everdeen look; dark hair, dark eyes, dark skin. His eyes are nearly coal black; they're fascinating to look at. Skin is always slightly dirty with the coal dust he must find on Gale's work coat. Hair is disheveled and messy, like Gale's. He's somewhat short, but I'm sure Briallan looks cuter that way.
The baby was healthy and happy. Roisin was our grandmother's name; she was very fond of Katniss, and I suspect my sister returned the warm feelings Grandmother had. She's got my hair, though, which I find amusing. Roisin seems to be getting more than enough to eat; she's as plump as a partridge. A very odd occurrence, indeed; you don't see many kids being chubby.
I like the two of them. Very sweet and gregarious children, though Briallan seems a bit quieter than his younger sister. I fear for the time when they are old enough for Reapings; they're much too sweet to be taken by the Games. Much like the girl from the seventy-fourth games; Madge Undersee. She was Katniss's friend, but I hardly talked to her except at lunch during school time. She was killed by that redhaired girl. I never liked her; was too awkward. Plus, she didn't like my goat.
