Reasons I have for writing this short story:
I wanted to show how I interpreted Romulus Thread's thought pattern. I think the character he most resembles is Inspector Javert, the main antagonist of Les Miserables. Like Javert, Romulus Thread seems like the type of person who is cruel without being corrupt. He's the type of person who is devoted to enforcing the law no matter what, for never making exceptions to this, and for believing that people only break the law out of greed or malice (instead of, say, survival needs).
What makes Romulus Thread dangerous, apart from that he takes his devotion to law enforcing too far into the extreme, is that the laws of Pre-Uprising Panem are unjust.
Then again, the book only mentioned him in three chapters so there is a lot to work with in terms of filling in the blanks.
