you can always bleed a little more.






I knew that it was cruel to be so optimistic / but in my solitude,
I couldn't resist the urge and spent entire days basking in idiotic fantasies /
sometimes verging on prayer.

chapter eleven, act one






central island, the arena.
july, 70 att.

                    THE THING ABOUT CAREERS IS THAT THEY DON'T GIVE UP. Not even close; not even an option; not in their nature. It's not possible. At least, it shouldn't be ─── they're the best of the best, top of the class, their district's pride and joy, and they have been since they were old enough to hold a knife. Hours and hours of preparation and planning and sacrifice, all for a shot at glory. The trainers have ingrained and scarred it into their minds ─── failure is not an option. It never has been. This opportunity, the one they've built up to their entire lives, will not be usurped by some farmer boy playing god.
