Spark of Hope Oompa/Loompa/Doopidy/Doo Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 (edited) Marewill took her knife back from Roy. First of all, she didn’t trust him with it. Secondly, if he wanted a weapon he needed to get his own from the casino. She walked a short distance away from him and Tinker, though she positioned so that Tinker was between her and Roy. She moved almost sluggishly, as though she were moving through molasses. She sat down. Quote Storing speed She opened the box and pulled out the letter first. It was written neatly in her mother’s script. Mare, You are not a monster. You’re scared, and you made a mistake. I can tell what you’re thinking, and no, you are not like the men who killed your father. We’re doing alright here. The people are nice enough to us. Lily is even learning how to read and write. She’s very happy about that. It’s not the same without you here, I know you know that. But we’re okay. Don’t forget that. We all want you out of there, though. You shouldn’t have to go through this, especially not without your family. We all miss you, and we love you. Her mother signed her name, then Meron in blocky letters, then Lily in that large little-kid-lettering. Underneath the letter was a drawing, clearly done by Lily. A tall stick figure, a short stick figure, and a slightly taller stick figure were all hugging a medium sized stick figure. The caption was “Us hugeen Wily win she winz!” Her mother was in the middle of the photograph. She was smiling, but it didn’t reach her eyes. Meron was to the right. He was smiling nervously. Then to the left, little Lily beaming with barely a care in the world. She wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, then grazed her fingers over the photographed faces. She reverently, carefully folded all three pieces of paper and placed them in her shoe beneath her foot. @The Bookwyrm @RoyalBeeMage @Scars of Hathsin @J.

If he finds one, he starts hitting it really hard with the dagger, hoping to get some flakes of steel. If he doesn’t, he just keeps moving away from the casino, searching for more boxes, more tributes, or his old group. KuLaam continues to to tail Connor as he made his way through the dusty wasteland. He could barely contain his excitement. Soon he would be able to fight again. To feel the power. The contest. The thrill of the fight. He pulled out his glass daggers ready to pounce at Conners back. @WhyEverNot_8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could say that Connor’s the leader—though he doesn’t admit it—and he keeps them in check] also if you couldn’t tell by my lore dump, they’re partially beggars/bounty hunters-ish.

She had to watch as her other personality killed her father Spoiler Abused by drug-addicted father after her mother died when she was five. Different character I promise. She fell in love at sixteen, then her father orchestrated her fiancé’s murder. When she was 22 her father tried to sell her off to his drug dealer but she ran away Spoiler Father was a thief and serial killer who forced his wife to marry him and have kids with him. He wasn’t there when the younger of the two kids were born, so her mom was able to give her away to her uncle who raised her Spoiler Seven older brothers. She’s the only girl.
