Lotus Blossom she/her Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 On 7/22/2024 at 6:03 PM, The Stormfather said: “FINE.” Mark said harshly. “Sorry.” He paused. “I remember the last time I killed someone. I’ve been remembering it ever since we fought and killed Quelkin.” A tear forms in Mark’s eye. “It was the only way for us to survive. The mines had left me destitute. Only job I found was… assasination. I killed. Many.” Mark sighed. ”There was one final job. The last one, to bring me up from the bottom and give me enough money to maybe survive. I was said to kill her in a dark alley, a boss of a rival gang. Me and Sereine… my best friend, well, she new the target. She protested killing her, and we fought.” Mark shudders. ”Midnight that night, I found the target, knifed her in the alley. But… she was a bloodmaker. Like Sereine. I stabbed again and again, wild with rage as she screamed for help. It was then when I noticed… it WAS Sereine. I had killed her. The only one who had been on my side through it all… had been the leader of another gang!” Mark raises his voice. ”She had been spying on me, giving them information about me, and yet… I still… I still loved her…” ”that was until I found out her final order to her gang. Send the coinshot. Kill Mark. That’s why I’m here. And.. I am far from fine. I think we all aren’t fine, if we’re volunteering for these games. But.. it’s time to end this. It’s time… sadly… to kill the others. I know we have to. We gotta do what we can to survive.” "Mark." Astra was contemplative. When she did decide to speak, she said very little, asked simply as an inquisitive remark. "Do you still love her?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Or, well, me, because I’m the one doing it lol). But since I’m working 10 hour night shifts every day, I haven’t had a ton of time to spark things. There’s one interaction I’ve kind of been waiting for with Jaksyn and Astra, and… Yeah. It might keep being a little slow for a bit, but we’re down to 9 tributes, and as soon as I have time I’ll try to build up conflict 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
