[ same, girl. fucking same. ]

u say that like governing and stupidity are mutually exclusive

[hangingtree]

[ That actually gets a bit of a laugh from her. ]

Good point. My experience has actually been the opposite.

[rekt]

same. ours shot ppl out of air locks for petty theft. urs?

[hangingtree]

Sounds like yours and mine would've gotten along.

Killed for showing any sign of revolt, intended or otherwise. Beaten for trading goods obtained illegally. Also, if you were lucky enough to be one of the chosen children, forced to fight tributes from the other districts annually in a televised murder competition called the Hunger Games.

[ It might seem like all of that is easy for her to type, to almost joke about, but in reality she's teetering on the edge of a panic attack. ]

or decimate each other 4 survival?

ooh we didnt get televised but they did send 100 teenagers down to a planet that was suposed 2 b 2 irradiated to live on 4 another 100 yrs just to test it. unfortunately, we lived. well, sum of us.

what the point of the games?

[hangingtree]

Or that.

Was there a reason they sent you? Did they have a lack of volunteers?

It was supposed to be a reminder for the Districts that they were under control of the Capitol and to prevent us from having another revolution. Also, people in the Capitol got some disgustingly twisted pleasure out of watching it every year.

on the ark, any crime was punishable by death. air rationing and all. but they like pretending they arent total monsters, so if ur under 18 u just get shoved in prison until ur a legal. then, like the worst bday present ever, woosh, floated

so they sent us bc we were on death row anyway


sounds like a great way to piss ppl off. u kno u hear all this bullshit when ur a kid abt how ppl are inherently good or w/e. then u grow up, and disgusting crap like this happens and u think how fucking stupid ur parents & teachers must have been for believing smth thats such complete horseshit.

what i mean is sry abt ur world. its fucked up.

[hangingtree]

I think your home might tie mine for the worst one people have come from, here.

[ Was that a joke? Yes, yes it was; a morbid one but a joke nonetheless. ]

You too.

We've been fighting back, though, trying to take out the people in power and those responsible for continuing all of it. I'm not sure if we'll win, but the people are angry; they aren't going to just accept going back to the way things were, even if me and all of the soldiers die.

You're fighting back, too, it sounds like. By managing to survive.

[rekt]

well at least ours wasnt a yearly thing, so ur still ahead in that category

at least you can say you did something. messed up as the ground is, i'd still take it over the ark. its a crappy spot, but at least its free.

[ 'fight back'. he's not sure he really qualifies for that. he isn't clarke or bellamy, throwing everything they are into 'my people' and 'saving humanity'. he's just... surviving. but that's more than anyone ever expected him to, so he'll take it. ]

the ark isnt really a thing anymore, just an abandoned ring in space. but i lived longer than most of the assholes who shot me to the ground to be a radiation guinea pig, so, small victories. being alive is nice.

[hangingtree]

Yay me.

How badly is it messed up?

[ It could be any number of things, after all. ]

I feel the same way, honestly. But it's not enough, which is why I'm fighting to make my world better. Even if I don't live long enough to actually enjoy it.
