Riella was still mad at herself when she woke up.
She couldn't believe it was over. Angry tears flowed out of her eyes as she realized that it was all her fault. After everything she fucking went through, everything she endured, she was dead and Andy was alone. She underestimated her District partner and because of it, she was here. She was worlds away from her life source, from the one person that was her sun, moon, and stars. All of the disgusting cliches Riella could think of, she was all of them. Andy was the reason that Riella was how she was, she was everything to Riella. She was Riella's happiness, joy, her everything, and just like that she was gone. Riella couldn't imagine how Andy felt. She just hoped that her girlfriend wouldn't blame herself.
Of course she would blame herself. She was Andy. She pretended to brush things off, but she secretly put so much pressure on herself. She held herself responsible for things that really weren't her fault. She pretended she didn't care, and a lot of times she really truly didn't, but those things that she cared about, even if she pretended she didn't, she was so hard on herself. It broke Riella's heart to know that Andy put so much pressure on herself. She always tried to hide it, as she was conditioned to do. Riella brought it out of her. She held Andy when she was crying, and reassured her. Andy wasn't used to being weak and vulnerable, but Riella helped her trust enough to let it out. She helped Riella gain confidence, totally changed her worldview. She loved Riella so well and Riella loved her too. They were always there for each other and so quickly, Riella had ruined it all.
If she could just have five more minutes with the love of her life... She would hug Andy, kiss her lips, tell her that this wasn't her fault. None of it was. Riella didn't want Andy to volunteer for her. She was glad that she didn't. She wanted Andy to keep going without her, keep being badass and amazing... Riella hated that she ruined it all. She blamed herself for everything. It was all her fault.
She sat alone and sobbed, hating herself. It was all her fault. If only she'd never stepped in that trap. If only she'd never let go of that axe. There were so many things she could have done differently... God, it was the worst feeling.
She was alone for a while, so alone. She could feel people thinking about her, even the goddamn bastard Kendal. She focused on Andy, though. She hugged herself, trying to pretend Andy was there. She stayed like that for a while before she felt a hand touch her shoulder gently.
When she looked up, she saw the familiar, gentle face of her ally and friend peering down at her.
"Hey," she said quietly. When Riella looked up, she saw all the tributes there, with some distance between them and Maggie, who was right by her. The other Careers were in the front of the huddle, with Edgard and Raoul in the back, celebratory but sensitive to Riella's emotions. Riella hugged Maggie tightly. She was glad to have someone who understood her pain, and being hugged by a friend, a real true friend, was something Riella really needed.
"They'll be okay," Maggie said quietly. Her voice was soft and reassuring. Riella cried into her shoulder but gave a slight nod. Andy would pick herself up. Even if she functioned solely off of spite for a couple days, she would do what it took to move on. That was one of the things Riella really admired about her.
After hugging Maggie for a while, Riella dried her eyes, feeling a sense of calm, though she was still miserable. She hugged Iridesce and Callum, and was surprised at the number of tributes that were there to hug and reassure her.
Healing would take a long time, and Riella was sure that she would never be whole again until Andy was back by her side.
But if Andy got to live a long and fulfilling life, then Riella was more than willing to wait.
Riella refused to stay down for long, just like she knew Andy would. All she knew was that Kendal had a lot of lives to honor.
From what she'd seen of her District partner, his defiance of Adler, his wits, his determination to make it home...
Somehow, Riella knew that he would find a way.

Cobra Richie, District 7 Escort
Made by HogwartsDreamer113
Name: Cobra Richie
Age: 29
District they're escorting for: Whatever would be the most fun. :) Seven could work, as Adler would give them a lot of shit, but really anywhere you think would be fun.
Have been escorting since: 76
Appearance: Cobra is agender, designated female at birth. People have try to guess what gender they are, and never can be sure. Cobra is Asian in ethnicity, and naturally has tan skin, black spiky hair and brown eyes. Cobra is obsessed with their weight, and as a result is very lean.
Style: Cobra has had their eyes altered to look like cat's eyes. They also wear contacts, causing their eyes to vary between golden yellow, bright green, sky blue, red, and lavender depending on the day. The tips of their hair is dyed red.
Personality: Cobra is uptight and haughty. They are very snobby, feeling above not only the districts, but also above many other escorts. They have a temper, and always are accusing people of judging them. Cobra hates being misgendered, and will be rude to anyone who makes a mistake of calling them she or he. It's they and them. Nothing else. Cobra will throw a fit if they hear the wrong pronoun in reference to them. However, Cobra is extremely hypocritical, and never bothers to ask anyone else their preferred pronouns. The only reason Cobra became an escort was so that they could be on tv and brag that they met celebrities.
Opinion of the District they're escorting for: They are beneath them.
How do they treat the tributes? Like people, or like animals?: Like animals.
How do they treat the mentors?: Not much better. Cobra demands respect from the mentors, but refuses to give it in return.
Pet Peeves: Being called the wrong gender, nail biting, people chewing with their mouths open.

Heather Pierce, District 7 Mentor: Briella
Made By We're All Okay
Name:
Heather Pierce
District: 7
Age: 33
Games they won: 66th
Appearance: Heather is considered one of the prettier Victors, with wavy blonde hair and dark green eyes. Her skin is tanned, and a scar cuts across her torso from a wound. She stands at around 5'6", and has a lean build.
Personality: Heather is a controlling, manipulative person. She loves being on the top, which is what gave her her drive to fight in her Games in the first place. Though she's lost her taste for blood, she's energetic, outgoing, and a sucker for action. She's got street smarts for days, and can easily talk her way out of any situation that isn't optimal. Despite her energetic attitude, she's a bit of a nihilist, believing that since she's done it all (won the Games, became a star), she has nothing left to fight for, the only exception being a Tribute she grows very close to.
Strategy for mentoring: She's a bit strict, though she makes sure to emphasize that it's the Tribute's choices in the end that get them killed or help them survive, not her advice.
Relation to tribute: Depends on who they are. If her Tribute is an ass, she'll probably be an ass back. But if they're nice, she might warm up to them a little and help them out, while maintaining her usual strict attitude.
Opinion on being a Victor: Heather loves it all; the fame, the glory, the fact that everyone in Panem knows her name. She does think it's gotten old, though, and is sick of the attention. She sort of just goes through the motions of her duties as Victor now.
Opinion on the Capitol: Oh, Heather hates them, though she has a small respect for them due to them giving her her fame.
Opinion of escort: Heather hates the Capitol, so she hates the Escort by extension. She picks fights with them constantly.
Philosophy/Winning Advice: "You know, the weapon skills don't always save you. It's the brains that really matter in the end. If you can think quickly, you can work your way out of any situation, and to the Victor's circle."

Adler Shelton, District 7 Mentor: Kendal
Made by HogwartsDreamer113
Name: Adler Shelton
District: 7
Age: 24
Games they won: 78
Appearance: Adler has untidy dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. He normally has a beard, but shaves whenever he has to go to the Capitol. Adler is tall and muscular. He's attractive enough to be desired by many in the Capitol, and would be almost as popular as Finnick *wails* if it weren't for his bitter personality.
Personality: Even at 24, Adler acts like a grouchy old man. He's sarcastic and blunt. Most of the comments Adler makes are harsh. He's a bit of a bully, and scares a lot of his tributes, but really, he doesn't give a shit. He hates careers, and has been known to get into fights and for making weaker victors, such as Annie, cry (Which, of course, Finnick and others do not tolerate in the mentor room). Adler has a sailor's mouth and is always causing trouble. He acts heartless, but deep down, he knows he is only trying to protect himself from "going off the deep end" as he would say. Adler would never admit his struggles with his inner demons though, and instead acts as though he regrets nothing about what he did in the games. He won by brutality, even betraying his own ally in the end. To deal with his demons, Adler binge drinks at home and is an alcoholic. Unlike Haymitch though, he always sobers up for the Games to be there for the tributes.
Strategy for mentoring: Adler believes in tough love. He believes his harsh words towards tributes will make them stronger in the end. He does not sugar coat anything, and can sometimes be downright mean.
Relation to tribute: What do you want for this exactly? I think Adler would want his tribute to be successful, so in turn would be really harsh on him.
Opinion on being a Victor: He enjoys the money, but is a grouch about everything else.
Opinion on the Capitol: Hates it with a burning passion, and has gotten in a bit of trouble over the years for being to vocal about it.
Opinion of escort: No matter what the personality, he is extremely rude to them.
Philosophy/Winning Advice: "You've got to be tough if you want to survive."
