 ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ Elixa Brianne White District Seven ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ I just had finished collecting the last of my herbs when I heard a soft spoken voice greet me. I jumped a little at the sudden sound, annoyed with myself again for allowing myself to appear so foolish. This forest made me quite nervous it seemed. I could only imagine the disadvantage of that if I were to be chosen for the hunger games. A shudder ran down my spine at that thought, knowing that it was completely possible for me to be initiated into the games, seeing as last year's victor was kneeling beside me. It had been quite a shock when Ellis had been called into the games. I could remember how upset I had been, seeing as he had been one of my closer friends just like Dwight is now. However, things had changed once Ellis had returned home from the games, and I was quite surprised to see him making an attempt at being social for a change.
"Oh, hey Ellis." I said with a friendly smile, trying to encourage him that I still considered him a good friend despite the distance that had been put between him. It was completely understandable of course, but I hated being distant from my friends. They were really the only family I had in this life. "I've been keeping myself busy, I guess. I've found a job in the herb shop, so I haven't starved yet..." I said with a small laugh to myself. "What about you?" ≎≎≎Mood:Friendly≎≎≎Location:Forest≎≎≎Inventory:Herbs≎≎≎

Ellis smiled and sat on the ground with a silent oomph, resting his forearms on his raised knees. Ellis was never the talker, with his friends he was the one who smiled and laughed but always stayed pretty quiet when it came to talking, and he knew that Elixa was pretty much the same way. Knowing that, it sort of surprised him at how much he talked around her. She was one of the very few people that could get him to open his mouth. Dwight being one of the others. "That's good." he said with a smile. "I knew it was just a matter of time before you were working in that shop. You've always been good with plants." Ellis reminisced on how many plants that he failed to keep alive. Chopping them down he had no problem, it was the whole keeping them alive thing that he struggled with. No matter how hard he tried, they just would not stay alive. So that was one skill that he has almost accepted defeat. Almost.
He pursed his lips at her question. With this year being almost worse than the last, but not quite. The games were bad enough, but having to come back and face all of his friends and family after having to do so many terrible things to survive, was the hardest thing he has ever had to endure. It was the main reason why he hid. Ellis didn't want to leave Elixa, or Dwight, or any of the others, but not knowing if they would still accept him for the different person he came out as was what kept him away. "The Capitol has kept me busy." a lone tone escaping his lips. "As you know, I'm our District's mentor. And I must have done at least one thing right. Since Coralie and Randall are still here." Ellis of course smiled as he spoke that last sentence. Knowing that their tributes were still alive. It was almost a bitter sweet though, it's fantastic that they're still alive, but there were still at least eight other people against them before they could come home. Ellis didn't even want to imagine how the other mentor's felt, knowing that both their tributes had lost their lives.
Ellis sighed and looked at Elixa with heavy eyes. "I'm sorry for leaving you." he said with sincerity in his voice, he felt that if he was going to try and fix all of his relationships, then many apologies were due. Another thing that kept corroding his thoughts were, had he been left behind? Before the previous game it had been mostly He, Elixa and Dwight, maybe a few others. With being gone for so long, there was no doubt in his mind that he had been passed up.

≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ Elixa Brianne White District Seven ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ I watched as the conflicting emotions crossed Ellis' face as he spoke to me, and it was quite evident that I had hit a nerve with asking of his emotional state. Of course he wouldn't be okay, but I still felt as though it had been the polite thing to ask. I couldn't even imagine having gone through what he did, much less having to go back and mentor this years competitors. I hadn't known Randall or Coralie very well, but I had a few classes with the latter of the two, but had never really spoken much to her unless it was for some sort of project.
At his apology, I couldn't help but give him a gentle smile, and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't be silly, Ellis. It isn't your fault you were put through all of this. There's no need to apologize to me for it. I'm just glad you made it home safe."I said to him in a soft tone, trying to give him a small smile that showed I meant what I said. I felt bad for him, wishing that I could understand what he was feeling, but at the same time, very much grateful that I didn't have to know what it was like to have to survive in that arena. A couple more years, and I won't have to worry about it anymore. I am wind and hurricane

Ellis smiled sweetly at her words and slightly looked away. He put his hands on his knees and stood, extending his hand out to her. "Do you want me to walk you to wherever it is you're going?" he asked, assuming that she wasn't just sitting in the woods for no reason. Then again, he could be wrong. It was probably safe to say that she was off to meet Dwight somewhere, another person he needed to apologize to.

≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ Elixa Brianne White District Seven ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ With a small smile, I took Ellis' hand and let him help me off the ground. I brushed the pine needles off my skirt, then lifted up my basket of herbs, their clean scent filling my nostrils while doing so. "If you have nothing better to do, Ellis." I said to him with a light laugh. "I'm meeting Dwight at the herb shop. He's going to stay over. Would you be interested in hanging out as well?" I asked him curiously, wondering what he would say.
From what I had seen of him lately, which wasn't much, was only that he stayed to himself. I've hardly ever seen him in a conversation with another human unless they spoke to him first. Perhaps he was starting to get over what had happened, if not, than just a little bit. I was quite curious as to what he would say. ≎≎≎Mood: Content≎≎≎Location: Forest≎≎≎Inventory: Herbs≎≎≎

Ellis stuffed his fingers into his pockets and smiled at the ground at her invitation. "I would love to. But I don't want to impose." he said. Of course he would love to hang out, but he didn't want her to feel like she needed to invite him. He hadn't seen any of his friends in quite a long time, so seeing any of them would be like meeting them again for the first time. Ellis almost felt as though they would resent him for his absence. He didn't like being gone then coming back, acting as if nothing changed. It was a big step for him. He met her eyes and smiled, "Shall we?" he asked, gesturing in the direction of town. He felt as though he was being too angsty and needed to loosen up and stop worrying about everything, so what better way was there than hanging out with friends?

 █ Aveynne Grey Sandarbolt █Tree tops. Birds fluttering around. It was the forest. It was quiet even though there was so much noise. Aveynne felt safe, despite her being hundreds of feet in the air currently. She said on a broad tree branch just looking blankly in front of her. Around her birds fluttered from branch to branch. She could hear the talking of two people below her. She was a lone wolf despite how well known her family is. She just didn't like people. Not after her fifth grade year. She went through a crazy growth spurt. People had made fun of her a lot. Then everyone evened out when they got older. Still she never felt part of the group after that. She climbed down from her tree carefully and headed back for town.
