born to win.

Care to step off your pedestal?

Somebody just said my thoughts out loud.

I’ll hold you to that.

Excited would be an understatement. I'm way more than just excited.

Well you’d be breaking a national record, should that speedy bloodbath ever occur.

In that case prepare not only for a victory, but also for a record party.

Him staring at you like a psycho… There’s irony in that somewhere…

Is it? I actually think after what you said it totally fits the image.

Don’t they always say intimidation is one of the most valuable skills to have?

Then I'm the master of valuable skills. And I didn't say they're actually going to survive. I said they should try working on it, or otherwise these games will only last two seconds, and where would be the fun in that?

The male tribute from District 5. I couldn’t tell you much about him, just that he seems to think that there’s a way out. Didn’t exactly seem up for going into detail on it.

Fucking idiot. I'm going to put him on top of my mental list right now. I think that's the one who decided to stare at me like a psycho as well.

You’re one of the prime candidates, tribute from District One. It’s only natural everyone in the Capitol wants to see you in person at least once.

I can't blame them. And the Capitol people are allowed to stare at me and my great body all they want. The other tributes though? They should start saving their own lives instead.

I have to say that those were my thoughts as well, but I’m still curious where this kid gets his delusions from.

Wait, what? There's seriously a kid around here who thinks he can get out of all of this? Oh, I'd love to kill that idiot.

I didn’t say you couldn’t. I’m sure you do… I’m sure you know everything there is to know. Why would someone say there’s a way to get out of all of this then? Do you know the answer to that question?

Somebody who says there's a way out of this is stupid. End of story.

Shouldn’t you take it as a compliment?

I took it as a compliment the first thousand times. Now it's just annoying me.

You wouldn’t, it was just worth a shot in asking. There’s this whole… brutes vs. brains stereotype so you might say I was putting that to the test. All other ways, huh? You really think you know everything?

Brutes vs. brains? Interesting. I'm pretty sure I can have both of it, no need to test me in such silly ways. I do, actually. I know absolutely everything about this whole event.

Provocative, eh? That's going to get you killed now.

Why don’t you show me what you’re hiding then? I don’t exactly think that’s something that I should be ashamed of. Snapping necks is far from the only way to win in the arena.

Why would I? There's no reason why I'd show you my strategies. So I'll say no, sorry to disappoint. It definitely isn't. But I know all the other ways to win as well.

Go look somewhere else? It would be my pleasure. Just so you know, it wasn’t so much you I was looking at opposed to your strategies… so, don’t flatter yourself too much. I highly doubt you’d snap my neck so soon even if I weren’t to stop.

My strategies? If you think I'm showing my strategies here, you're even more stupid than I thought you are. I can snap 23 necks before you've even placed hands on a neck.

…

Full of myself? I don't think I can be full of myself. I'm just running around telling the truth.
