"That's good. Thank you, Caspia." Eden breathed a sigh of relief. They had fresh, clean water, which would make his next job much easier. Cleaning the wound with impure river water wouldn't do. Pushing the rude intrusion from earlier to the back of his mind, he held out the gauze pad so Caspia could add water. Truthfully, Eden was no expert at first aid either - but he and his ally were doing his best.
"Absolutely. We'll do our best," Eden assured Gloria in his calmest voice. "I'm going to clean your wound with the water Caspia purified. It might sting a little, but it's worth avoiding infection. Once it's all clean, I'll bandage it up and you'll be good to go."

Sienna smiled and gave little Rieka the biggest hug ever, now that was nice to have and she would remember this moment forever. But she let go as she jerked away in a slight rush, she gave a thoughtful smile and greeted Jay with a polite claps of the hands. Sienna smiled softly at Rieka and Moses they were so sweet with each other and she could tell her district partner had just adopted Rieka and Jay as his. “I’m Sienna! It was well... About our old alliance but we definitely made the right choice be joining you both. If you need a blanket I have a spare and we have much to offer.” She said gently as her face lit up from the happiness of Rieka.“Oh! I nearly forgot here’s a small gift for you both from me and Moses, for being so kind to us and bringing us joy.” She said pulling out the compass and placing it in Rieka’s tiny palms gently.

➵Moses Grandy| D7 |18|Tags:Sienna.Rieka,Jay| loc:East
Moses chuckled as the small girl came sprinting over and he had just to open up his arms for the sweet child. He didn’t ever want to let her go and it seemed just the same for her. Moses just melted over how chipper she was and he finally released her to greet Jay. Over the course of the trip he had managed to yank off his gross old bandages and dispose of them but he didn’t mean to alarm Rieka like that. Moses gave a tiny polite smile before giving way to a smile of complete relief,“I am much better thank you Rieka.” He chirped back in a loving fatherly tone he never realized her had. “Sienna is right about both things... If you want we can do the hunting and watches so you both can get some sleep.” Moses suggested.

➵Location: Marshes
➵Tags: None

After Zoe had drunk her water, she went back to the tree where she left her stuff and rested. There were some needles that looked like pine that she popped in her mouth, chewing the juice out. It quelled her queasy stomach temporarily and she realized that that water maybe wasn't the best to drink. Her stomach was churning like crazy and her head pounded. She threw up for the second time in the Games. Oh my gosh, she thought. What if it was poisoned?

She leaned up against the tree, the world spinning dizzily. What was happening? She looked woozily at the sky and vowed silently, If I'm going out in the Games, it won't be by drinking mud. Then everything went black.

Chaska had been scanning the horizon when Killick joined him in standing watch. Unlike Eden however the career didn't say anything to him after they approached and instead stood next to him silently. Being the socially incompetent of the bunch he had no idea what he was supposed to do in this situation and found hims staring at the blankly. If Killick was expecting him to say something he wasn't sure what. There also was the possibility that they weren't expecting him to say anything at all. After what could have been considered and uncomfortable amount of time he finally spoke up. "Good morning" was all he said before turning back to the horizon. He found himself quickly focusing on the horizon and kind of blocking out a lot of what was happening around him. Not enough to not be aware if they were approached but just enough to not be distracted by the drama that was happening between the other four careers.

Sharnaz opened her mouth to say something but then stopped herself. There was nothing she could say without sounding condescending. So she took a moment to think over what she could say before voicing her opinion. "If I saw he kids take the tend then I bet the careers will know too. I doubt they will stop and let us talk it out if they spotted us with the tent" she said carefully. It was her hope that she was able to convey how she thought how stupid of an idea it was without making Reyna think she was talking down to her. Luckily it seemed that Reyna take her warning to heart because at the sound of voices they stopped and then crouched low in the grass. Unluckily for her it seemed that Reyna was a little dim. How could the white haired tribute be one of the careers, they were much much to small for that. Sharnaz had to refrain from face palming at her allies next statement. "Forgive me for being so blunt but those are not the careers. There should still be six of them and I only count two with that tent. Also those two happen to be the kids we are looking for. But before you run off to go kill them we need to wait till they separate from those district seven tributes. We can kill those two later" she said softly while motioning for Darius to crouch as well. Thankfully he followed her order.

Rieka turned her gaze on Sienna as she introduced herself and shared what they could offer, a blanket and more. While they had a tent already a blanket would be very nice for anyone who was keeping watch. Already the gears were turning in her mind. Since the tent was made for two people then two people could stand watch while the other two rest. It would give them even more warning and it would make the two resting feel more secure. When Moses started to elaborate she shook her head slightly while still holding the cool cloth to his cheeks. "I can't really hunt but I can cook. So maybe if you guys hunt me and Jay can cook the food when you get back. And I don't mind keeping watch. I was actually thinking since there are four of us maybe two can take first watch while the other two rest. The blanket will make keeping watch so much more comfortable" she said thoughtfully. Her hidden message was along the lines of, she didn't want to be a burden on them. After all if she couldn't pull her own weight then why would they want to keep her around. She perked up when Sienna spoke up and handed her an adorable compass. "Its adorable!" she chirped while peering the the compass. Very quickly she became lost in turning the device and watching the arrow spin until it found north. "Thank you! I love it" she finally said while offering Sienna and Moses a huge grin. Spinning to Jay she held out the compass. "Look its a compass! Isn't it super cool!"

Caspia Searobin | District 4 | Location: East Camp
| Tags: Gloria, Eden
Gloria insisted that they make sure her injury wasn’t going to get infected. That was obviously their plan of action but Caspia understood her worry. Careers were supposed to die in battle, not to a lingering wound caused by a tent zipper. Pouring the clean water onto Eden’s gauze Caspia gave a nod.
”You’ll be all ready to go and bring honour to Two.”

Felix Prestman | District 12 | Location: West Shelter | Tags: Penny
Felix nodded as Penny mentioned the water canteen she had collected. That was the only reason they weren’t panting for water already.
“I don’t think it’ll be long until we’re running low so water’s definitely our top priority.”
Past Games had proved that it wasn’t helpful to be battling dehydration while in the arena.

His ally also commented on being unable to tell poisonous berries from others, and Felix smiled at that. “That shouldn’t be a problem. I learned a lot about healing herbs from Dad, and the side effect of that is learning which plants you definitely don’t want to pick. I can teach you as we go!”
He began gathering up everything they had, ready to move. The quilt, his cooking pot, everything.
”You’re better with the knife, so I’ll carry this and let you keep your hands free.
He looked around him, looking contemplative. “We should probably head down-hill to find water. Are you ready?”

Caspia's supportive words brought a smile to Eden's face, and he backed her up with conviction. "Caspia's right!"
"Thank you," He murmured with a grateful dip of his head, taking the now-saturated gauze pad back from his ally. Now Eden didn't waste any time in cleaning the wound. Best to get it over with as quick as possible - that would be ideal for everyone involved.
He exhaled a sigh of relief as he finished the hard part. After tucking the used gauze away in its wrapper, he reached for the supplies he'd need to dress the wound. More gauze, medical tape, those white bandages... That's all I can find...

He unwrapped a fresh piece of gauze and pressed it against the wound, making sure not to touch any surfaces that would come into contact with Gloria's skin. Then he tore off a sizable strip of medical tape to keep it in place. After taping it all up, he wrapped the bandages around the area, securing her wounded ear flat against the side of her head. This would keep it steady while it healed.
"All done. You're good to go," Eden explained, patting her on the back. He was beginning to sound like his mother. "Is there anything else wrong? Let me know if you start feeling lightheaded or nauseous. Sorry... I'm a bit of a worrywart, aren't I?"
He then turned to Caspia. "Oh, I forgot to ask! Did you and Chaska catch any fish after I went to bed? Maybe I could cook breakfast, it'd help all of us feel better."

Reyna pouted like an entitled kid who'd just been told "no". She couldn't sulk for long, though. Sharnaz was just looking out for her partner in crime. The smile soon returned to Reyna's face - who cares if the tent was off limits? She had something even better, a best friend to commit horrific atrocities with. Together they would be unstoppable. They didn't need some stupid, shabby tent.
For a moment, Reyna looked disappointed as Sharnaz explained those weren't the Careers. But then a mischievious gleam reappeared in her hazel eyes. It was those pesky kids - even better! "Wow, that was easy. Let's-"
Before she could run off like a barbarian, Sharnaz chimed in with more wise advice. Reyna cursed under her breath and rolled over onto her back. She'd just have to watch the clouds go by until those tributes split up. Even the clouds were boring, though, all shaped like mundane bunnies or brooms. Ugh. Reyna turned to Sharnaz and, in a whisper, asked: "So what are our plans after this?"


➵ Sponsor Gift
A soft chime sounded in the eastern quadrant, followed by the appearance of a silver silk parachute. It descended from the still skies and came to a rest near Rieka's camp. Lifting up the cover from the attached tray would reveal four pink velvet cupcakes, each of them covered with a delicate white swirl. Tiny candy hearts decorated the icing with a larger heart at each tip. Each of the big candy hearts had a message written on it: "Love you", "My baby", "Sweet pea", and one that just said "HUG" in all caps.
Attached was a note from Jillian... I convinced Himaya to help me bake these! You can share them with your friends. We love you!

Gloria thought about what Caspia said. Bring honor to two? No. Gloria had absolutely no pride in that filthy district on the side of a mountain where style and fashion went to die. Winning the hunger games would be for her honor, not two's. However she didn't have the energy to retort anything of the sort to Caspia, as she was more focused on Eden bandaging her ear. When he said he was done Gloria's hand flew up to her ear. Gaping, she let out a surprising gurgle, so taken aback a genuine yell couldn't even come out. Pacing over to the river, she looked in the water, staring at her reflection. Eden had bandaged up her ear and made her... made her... made her UGLY! "What is wrong with you? You made it look worse!" Gloria shouted at Eden.

Penny nodded, that sounded like a good plan. She didn't mean for Felix to carry all of the supplies, but he was right. She needed to have her hands free in case she needed to use the knife, although the thought of using the weapon on anything made Penny's stomach twist. Starting down the hill, Penny found it a lot easier to keep her balance on the rocks than the first day. Maybe there were less nerves than when they fled from the Cornucopia, although she still couldn't help but be nervous. "I hope we're the only ones who tried going this way." She started, not liking the silence. "I really don't want to have to run into anyone else..."

Madeline Gomez//District 1//Female//A brat//Tagged; Careers

Madeline’s laughter came to an end as soon as Eden had scolded her. She hadn’t expected that. Eden had never talked to her like that. She couldn’t help but feel a bit hurt. She even felt a little bad for laughing after being scolded. Was what she did really that bad? Was it so bad that Eden had to yell at her for it?
The other Careers began to send dirty looks and insults her way. She didn’t know how to deal with it, she had never gotten scolded or punished like this.

She’d apologize but, unfortunately for the other Careers, her pride wouldn’t let her. She wanted to apologize but at the same time, she didn’t. Apologizing would get her back on Eden’s good side but it also meant admitting that what she did was wrong, and she wasn’t pathetic enough to admit she was wrong.

Whatever emotion she felt before turned into anger. She wasn’t pathetic! She wouldn’t apologize! Apologizing was for pathetic rats and she was anything but pathetic! She would rather be seen by everyone as a bad person than a pathetic loser!

She scowled and quickly stomped away. “Stupid alliance. Stupid Gloria.” Madeline muttered under her breath as she got further and further away from the others. As soon as she was as far as she desired, she started letting out her anger by yelling whatever vulgarities she could think of. Most of them were just insults consisting of the words mutt, rat and parasite. She also just screamed at the sky. No words, just unholy screeching!

Jay Fernandez//District 11//Male//Tagged;Reika, Sienna and Moses

Jay kinda awkwardly sat there for a bit before hugging Reika back. ”That’s a great idea!” Jay exclaimed in excitement at the suggestion. He’d love to have more allies! More allies meant more friends, and a better chance at protecting Reika and himself! He wondered if they were supposed to seek out their allies themselves or if they were supposed to wait.

His question was soon answered when two other tributes made their way over to them. Jay just stood there as Reika hugged both of the tributes and took care of their wounds. He wasn’t really sure what he could do to help, so he just watched Reika and the other tributes.

He didn’t speak until Reika mentioned his name. At the sound of his name, he waved over at the others and let out a little Hi! He watched as the other tribute, Sienna, handed Reika a compass. “Oh that’s so cool! Thank you!”

He nodded in agreement to Reika’s plan. “I know how to cook! I’d help my dads back home. Also thank you again for the compass! You guys seem so nice, I’m sorry that we don’t really have anything to give back in return!”

(Super sorry if I missed anything or if my post looks a little wonky! Google docs messed with my typing a little bit.)

Eden's natural reaction would be to apologize at once, but he was thoroughly fed up with the behavior this morning. These lasses' angry fits did nothing productive for the alliance. For once, his eyes were completely dry as he faced down Gloria.
"Sorry if it's not to your taste, Gloria." He kept his voice calm and impassive. "You can remove it at your own risk."
As for his district partner, she stormed off to scream somewhere else. Eden let her leave. There was no use going after her - if she had any interest in coming back, she would return on her own time. He didn't even acknowledge the behavior at all, he was so disappointed. If she apologized, this would all be over but no, she has to throw a tantrum instead of owning up to her mistake...

“No problem and that sounds like a wonderful idea.” She said slipping her mottled pack off and pulling out the blanket and handing it to one of her little allies.“Like Moses said we’re both happy to be here with you and to watch over you. Just let us know what you want us to do.” She said softly wary that someone could be watching her mainly the Capitol. They were probably playing her and Moses off as traitors but she believed she had done the right thing. She just hoped Garry was proud of her.

➵Moses Grandy| D7 |18|Tags:Sienna.Rieka,Jay| loc:East
Moses smiled at Jay,“They sounds like wonderful people Jay and just being allies is great enough! Do you guys have any preferences for prey?” He asked pressing the cool compress to his cheek, he was debating on just having Sienna go hunt and he stay behind to watch over the youngsters but it would be faster if two went.Moses continued pressing the cool cloth to his face and raised a soft brow at the parachute but he had a good feeling prey was nearby. But then again his good feelings always turned into bad especially with the angry mother moorhen. He just wanted some eggs but then again he did deserve the scratches for intruding.
