Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
You act like you have no chance..
Do I? I don't know. I do think I have a chance, but I also think it's good that you're making the most of what you have now. After all, whoever comes back from the Arena, doesn't really come back the same. There's always something that gets lost. So before we lose, I just think we should make the most of it.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
Boy, I’m not trying. I do it. It’s what I was born for. So maybe you should start getting worried. There are girls around here who are more bad-ass than you.
Being bad-ass isn't really what gets someone out of the Arena, is it? Nor are words, which is mainly what I'm getting from you right now. Just words, words and lots of words.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
"Right, right. Pumping different colors into their skin also seems kind of painful, but what ever flouts their boat. Yeah I guess your right Seb.. it’s okay I call you Seb right?"
"You think cool suit me.. you think I’m cool! Awww I knew I liked you for some reason." He laughed knowing that if he told Jo, he would probably just get patted on the head or something. "Well lucky for you I have never been one of biting heads, not my style. Thanks but no, not really. No one is exactly mean here… Well they don’t mean it…At least some don’t."
I wouldn't really know 'cause I haven't tried it. But I guess so since something has to be done to make that colour stay, right? Of course it's okay. Besides, you let me call you Nate. You can call me Seb. And you're really nice.
Yeah, I do. Cause you really seem like it. They don't mean it, no. It's probably not true and might just be some kind of facade. But still, it'd be better if people are not that rude when you're trying to be nice. But oh well, whatever makes them happy and feel safe. That's what's important, ain't it?
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
And guess what, if you look another time, you’ll be seeing another wall. I know it’s tough, Sebastian, but you’ve got to ignore it and focus on what’s important. Right?
I know, right? Even if I look up, I see a wall up above, although that is known to be called as ceiling. But the point stands.
I know it is. That's what Robbie keeps telling me, and now so do you. I promise I will. It's just that every once in a while, it just hits me hard and I can't help but think about it. I don't want to forget about home. I know it's what should keep me going.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
If you didn’t mean for it to sound like that, then you should probably think before you speak. That’s a basic known fact, I believe.
No, considering I don’t have family or friends. Honestly, is your plan to befriend me?
Yeah, I should probably have thought of it before I said it. I wouldn't want to offend anyone.
How can someone have no family and friends, though? You're here. Of course you have a family, you've got to come from somewhere.Â
Well, isn't that what we're supposed to do? We're District Partners, Tempest. We're at least supposed to be civil to each other and not lash out at one another like this. It would be better though if we could be allies or even friends.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
You’ll be surprised by how many people consider it whining. Keep saying that and someone from here will get all pissy and offended.
Oh, is that it? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone. I just really miss my district and all these buildings make me realize that I'm so far away from home. We don't have much of these buildings in Ten. It's all open and wide.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
Don’t worry, sweetheart. I’m pretty sure that I can tame a little pupil like yourself. If all goes wrong, I can get myself a whip and you’ll be purring like a kitten. How does that sound?
Pretty sure about it, huh? Well, that is if you can actually manage to use that whip on me before I tie your two hands to your two feet and leave you like that.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
You never know what the gamemakers have in store, so I wouldn’t be too sure about what they can and can’t do. As for the sky - I’m doubting it is real, to be honest. But just the illusion can help you in the arena.
Magnificent? I’m sure she’d love that compliment. She just wouldn’t show it. I’m not sure how often she shows the nice side, to be honest, she seems very persistent on the rough thing. Probably smart, as that will get her through the arena. I’m sure she likes you. Somewhere deep inside at least. I can’t tell you that, Seb. I hope you will be, but in the end that decision is up to you. And yes, most of the time she is as sunny as her name.
Yeah, you're right. They are the Gamemakers, after all. They make the Games. The illusion would help, yes. The real thing is so much better though. We're still under same sky as Ten because we're on the same planet, but with a fake sky in the Arena, it feels like being trapped in a different world. It's another layer away from home. But I guess there's nothing to be done about that, but try to forget and to just focus. And stop complaining. I've been doing that lot lately, I've been told.
She does seem like that. I'm sure she's nice and tough at the same time. I just really wanna be able to talk to her without her verbally shooing me away.Â
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
Oh? I’m glad to hear that then. It would be pretty boring if that’s the best you can do out there. But everybody is a dear sweetheart to me, and you’re no exception. Would you prefer for me to call you sunshine instead?
I don't know if 'boring' is the right word to use, but it certainly wouldn't be good if my weapon is 'whining', I agree with that. It can't really defend me.Â
You call everyone sweetheart? Doesn't that earn you a slap or a punch every once in a while? Nah, I'd prefer that you call me Seb, seeing as that's my name.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
Is that your best talent, sweetheart? I can see you winning the Game with it already.
No it's not. But I don't see why I would show what they are. And I'm not your sweetheart, sorry.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
I understand that very good. Hopefully you’ll see a bit of sky in the arena too. Would be a shame if they lock you up underground or in some building.
You’ll have enough time to talk to them, I’m sure. Tempest? She’s feisty, I’d say. Knows what she wants and what she can do. Very confident of herself, but mostly in the good kind of way. I guess she can come off as rough, but I really like her. She’s a nice girl underneath all that. And Sunny is as well. Honestly, she’s been my best friend since she won her Games, she knows how to make you smile and feel better. Two nice girls we have there.
Hopefully. It would be bad if it would be underground. There won't be too many places to go to. It'd be slightly better if it would be open. There would be a sky, but I guess there's still no way of knowing if that sky is the real one or not, right?Â
Yeah, I hope so too. She sounds very magnificent. I actually got to see the feisty and confident part. That's what she was showing me last time. I just hope I'll also get to see the nice girl part. I'm not too sure she likes me. We're going to be allies, though, right? And Sunny, she's as sunny as her name, then?Â

"Turning your skin different colors is not my idea of decoration, but then again what do I know? I’m just a simple guy with simple thoughts."
"Well yeah Nathan or Nate is fine, really don’t worry about it I don’t mind what you call me. I’m not a picky guy. " He waves the two buddy, buddy remark away. "Please don’t orry about it, I’m not going to bite your head of or anything."
"Nor is it mine. It looks weird and unnatural. Plus, it's a waste of resources. Simple is better most of the time, though, isn't it? Simple is real. Simple is true. Simple is honest."
"Hmm. Nate sounds cooler. I think I'd call you that. It suits you." He smiled while nodding. "I sure hope you don't. I'd still want to keep it until the Games, yanno. You're nice, though. That's a rarity here."
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
That’s what I was saying. We can go up there together. Sure, why not? If they’re willing to come with us, but I don’t see why they wouldn’t. It’s possible to make it really nice up there, actually, a picnic could turn it into District 10. Not really, but kind of. The atmosphere could be ten-ish, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, I do. Plus just being able to see the sky helps so much already. I'd miss seeing real sky in a few days. Might as well see as much of it as possible.
I hope they agree. I haven't really talked to them that much yet. It's only you I've been talking to, actually. But I wanna get to know them, especially Tempest. What's she like, really? Her and Sunny.Â
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
Thank you for appreciating it.
If you say so. I can still kill you in the arena, so don’t you worry.Â
You're very welcome.
Correction, though... You can still try to kill me in the Arena. Not worried for myself, no.
Everywhere I look, I see walls, walls and then more walls.
"Oh dear god.. you have to wonder if these people ever own a mirror. But I guess it’s quite amazing so I don’t mind in the slightest, just don’t go dying your hair."
"Nice to meet you Sebastian." he held out his hand. "Please call me Nathaniel or anything. Don’t bother with the Mr.”
"Maybe they do, but they're just decoration or something," he said, shrugging his shoulders. "Nope. Won't ever, especially not neon green. Hurts the eyes. Ouch."
He took the hand being offered to him and shook it gently and then let go. "Nathaniel makes my tongue go all tied up. Can I call you Nathan or something? Of course it's okay if I can't. I wouldn't want you to think I'm being too buddy buddy."

How can you say a life was still yours to own? Wasn’t it when that life was under your own control? Wasn’t it when that life was something concrete that you could hold tightly in the palm of your own hands? Wasn’t it when the roads that your this life took were routes that you yourself had steered it towards? Wasn’t that it? Well, if that was it, then it’d only be the complete and utter truth to say that Seb’s life was no longer in his hands to control, to hold and to steer.

"That’s a pretty good word to describe it. What’s the worst one you’ve seen so far?"
"If I did I would never hear the end of it from my co-workers. What’s your name? I’m Nathaniel Kay from district seven.”
I'm pretty sure it's the orange-skinned, green-haired teenager with white eyebrows I saw during the parade. It was a boy. He sort of looked like a character from a book written before the Dark Days that I got to read once.Â
My name is Sebastian Lourdais. I'm from District Ten. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Kay.
