A Song with Thorns
The Volunteer
Well it's time for the District 2 tributes. Better take another swig. On the screen, I see a rather large colorful woman resembling a peacock take the stage. She announces the first name, and immediately a volunteer calls out. No surprise there. Better get another drink in, before I take a look at this beastly girl.
I look, but I'm surprised by what I see. A gorgeous girl, with flowing blonde hair and an elegant white dress. The name announced is Livia Thorne. The fat peacock is ready to continue when the unexpected happens. The girl starts to sing.
At first, I think maybe it's an act of defiance. But the girl is all smiles. She even adds a dance to her performance. Oh, no. This girl didn't volunteer to win. She volunteered because she's a loon.
Soon the boy takes the stage, but I don't hear a name. The girl sings right over the peacock woman's announcement. Is this real? Did I go and drink too much already? The empty bottle suggests this may be a possibility.
