LAMINA , district 7 female tribute of the 10th hunger games.

It was a kind gesture but unfortunately, Lamina didn’t believe it. She was easy pickings to the stronger tributes.

“What good will anger do?” she asked hopelessly. She was going to die in a couple of days anyway.

it probably isn’t the best idea to make friends or bond in any way with the other tributes— but she couldn’t help but come over here and try to make her feel any bit better.

Lamina was genuinely moved by the kindness. Most of the tributes stuck to their district partners, weary of the ones they’d have to kill in a few days time.

Lamina turned her head, quickly wiping at her dirty face. The tears smearing the soot across her skin.

Lucy Gray, she had a kind mentor. The boy who got dumped in the cage with them.

“I’m sorry. Did I bother you?” she asked, sniffling.

she’s slowly coming up behind the weeping girl— cautiously, but not quiet enough to startle her.

“ hey there. ”

she understands the tears. when the sun goes down, she’s not as strong either. they start to slip.

she can’t stop weeping.

she knows how it makes her look. but who could stop crying after being sentenced to death?
