I'm not going to be biased in these games your tribute either die or win simple as that. My christmas gift to you even though it should have been birthday but Christmas is closer.
Trigger Warnings: Suicidal thoughts in Blue's part
Juniper Violet (15) District 7
Juniper danced along with the tempo that kept her on time that made dancing somewhat hard to get it right with all the complicated dance moves she'd came up with. Juniper imagined herself wearing a gold leotard with her skin painted with matching glitter that made seem more elegant with her chocolate skin.
It always have been Juniper's endeavor she had for most of her life as she wanted to be someone famous that could dance very majestically and elegantly to which she could earn lots of money to help out with her family's problems that Juniper shouldn't know about when her family tries to keep hush-hush about but secrets and Juniper always find a way to find out.
"Juniper, you should take a break," her mom sighed causing Juniper to tumble from the interruption her mom created.
"Mom, I can't… I have to do this," Juniper murmured.
"You're working too much!" her mom cried out. "You're fifteen."
"So… I'm the only one earning more money than both of you as people like to see me dance and gives me donations to which I give it to you and dad as we can't afford the rent as it get higher, Mom," Juniper countered.
Juniper stood up, closed her eyes and took a deep breath before she twirled trying to get a certain step correctly of the one she previously missed from her last shown which she abhorred missing one of the steps. Dancing was Juniper's life, it brought happiness to her but for taking a rest was practically unheard of when it came to dancing.
Juniper knew she was making herself work harder but it didn't matter. Juniper had to take care of her family because who would ever help her family out?
Juniper had a gift and she was going to use that to help her family out even if the job didn't exactly pay much as District 7 was one of the poor districts.
Rosa Ray (14) District 7
Rosa held her cigarette in her hand as people walked by her, sometimes fawning over the masterpiece she created but none actually stopping by to cherish the work she created. A fourteen year old exceptionally good at art was practically unheard of. Normally, Rosa wouldn't dare to smoke on an art show like this but she needed to do something besides looking at the citizens walking past her exhibat with their children screaming wanting to come see the art she created.
This time, she drew a person slaying a dragon with her vivid details and precise work that made her earn some food or money in the process which she didn't mind. All she wanted to have some friends, but the children's parents prohibited them from going besides Alice. Alice gave her stolen food whenever she came buy to which Rosa always gave away a few of her paintings to her since she adored them.
"I like your painting," a small boy commented. His round eyes looked at her with dimples quite noticeable the way he smiled as he looked at her.
"Thanks. I have a small portrait of it, if you want one," Rosa replied back, keeping her tone neutral as she focused on the little boy who couldn't be more than five years old, too young to have a worry in the world.
"Mom, could I have one?" The boy asked his mom as she came up to her with a beaming smile.
"Dear money is tight right now so we can't afford it," his mother told him in a stern voice which Rosa hid her dismay. This was usual for visitors to do so. Her paintings were sometimes focus on the childhood stories she was often told to by her mother during her childhood days, escaping the stories of her father as a cheater but Rosa never questioned about him. She always referred to him as a "cheater" leaving her mom as a single parent to care for her two kids.
"Sorry," the boy cried out which Rosa crack a small smile at him. Oh well, maybe next time someone could buy some of her paintings and give her money or food in the process.
Vivian "Vivvy" Willow (16) District 7
"Here, try this," Her best friend, Rosie said handing her an outfit which Vivian considers girly. It wasn't like she loved wearing girly clothes but she obliged and glared at her outfit when she put it on.
"Doesn't that look nice on you?" Rosie commented in almost a sweet way which almost made Vivian gag when she looked at her reflection.
The dress reached to her legs with frilly, bell-shaped sleeves which Vivian thought it was over the top though. It was kinda tight on her and it brought out her curves which she abhorred. She liked wearing her baggy clothes to hide her beauty and act like one of the guys.
"Oh it's lovely," Vivian said with sarcasm lacing her tone.
Rosie beamed and tried to apply mascara on her eyelashes which Vivvy carefully swat it away in annoyance as it was a complete waste of time though. Vivvy wasn't going to change her look even though Rosie tried to but Vivvy knew it wasn't going to succeed. She didn't had any sisters and was the woman in the family as her brothers took care of her since she was ten after their parents died.
"No, mascara," Vivvy whined.
"But it will make you look more beautiful," Rosie pouted to which Vivvy sighed. She hated when Rosie used this tone on her every time she voiced her opinions.
"Alright."
Rosie applied mascara to Vivvy's eyelashes and she hated how she looked. She looked to girly for her taste and she hated wearing those girl clothes. Perhaps it was the result of the lack of females in her life that made it her way. This outfit couldn't help her do much but sit down and fawn. It wasn't good for playing sports nor being in the woods.
Blue Fametale (15), District 7
Blue hid from his father out of cowardice as he didn't want to get beat up today by him even though he should have been protecting his mom from him but there was some things he couldn't change. Their family acted like a perfect family while his father drank until he was drunk when they were indoors. He hated this way.
Well not a perfect little family as if it was normal to have a father that worked for the Capitol but everyone in the middle class hated him and gets more bruises from the fights that usually broke out. He spotted a few pills nearby from his hiding spot in his room and decided if he wanted to kill himself.
Blue sometimes was suicidal but was a chicken to try and take his own life if he was being candid though. He grew tired of protecting his mother and getting into fights a lot to which he was just sick of tired of it all.
He knew he shouldn't though but no one was here to protect and tell him not to kill himself but it he doubted his parents would care for him. Both of his parents drink but with his mother's case was different. She drank to heal but that was kinda an idiotic excuse if you asked Blue.
He could hear those thumping footsteps nearby getting louder and louder which Blue had a decision to make.
Kill himself or stay alive for a little bit longer?
I'm not going in order so don't worry it just depends on what I want to do and what chapters I get. This was kinda challenging as I had to make up for Rosa and Juniper even though she's my tribute. Merry Christmas or happy holidays.
