 [ a haggard looking young man sits on a bed, his hands wringing together over and over again as he speaks. There's a hollowness to his stare, and he takes a little longer than most between his sentences, thoughtfully ]

I was working...on having responsibilities again. I baked bread starting at four in the morning until noon. At noon I fed the geese. Depending on the day, I might have free time after that, but by dinner I helped Katniss cook and I would dead-head the flowers in the garden.

The schedule...helped.

[ his hands spasm erratically for a moment, then still as Peeta clenches his jaw ]

And now I'm here. [ he offers a tight smile ] And that means I'm not feeding geese and the garden's not going anywhere anytime soon. Not to mention there's a possible deer overpopulation problem in District Twelve.

[ he sighs ]

So there go my responsibilities. And schedule. I guess this serves as a fair warning for you all.

Why are you people marketing that kind of stuff anyway? I mean, it's not unheard of, but it's totally supervillain-grade evil back where I'm from.

Yeah, that's still sounding like some evil shit. And it's serious overkill if they just want to remind you that you all got your asses handed to you.

And I'd think it could have been avoided altogether if they didn't force you to kill each other all the time, and treated you fairly. [But what does he know?]

Anyway, you're a long way from home, dude. There's no games or whatever here, and you'd not going to be able to get home, so you might as well try to relax and enjoy it if you can.

[Santo just sighs a little.]

What did you do for fun, then? I mean, before you were on the world's worst game show?

Dude... You're life kind of sucks, and I come from the species that's the king of sucky lives. Uh, no offense, man.

[He does perk up a little when Peeta mentions wrestling, though.]

Wrestling? You mean real wrestling right? [aka Professional Wrestling that isn't real at all.] You mean the greatest sport known to mankind?

But hey! You can be an honorary mutant now that you've met the requirement of at least half a population wanting you dead. [High-five... Only this is totally inappropriate.]

Lucky! I'm probably the best in my school, but nobody really wants to wrestle me because I'd beat their asses so bad... Or crush them. [Unintentionally, of course.]

[Aw, does he have to do this again?]

I'm not a mutt, I'm a mutant. Come on, dude...

[After a small pause.]

Oh, and I'm not going to try to kill you either. The girl seemed pretty concerned about that.

I don't think I caught her name, but she was kind of cute. A bit stand-offish, but she might have just been freaked out. I don't know.

She was pretty worried that I was a mutt and coming to kill her though.
