bright and bubbly as ever, if you drink it, trots to the podium and gives her signature happy hunger games and may the odds be ever in your favor. Her pink hair must have been a wig because her curls have shifted slightly off center since her encounter with homage. She goes on a bit about what an honor it is to be here. Although everyone knows she's just aching to get bumped up to a better district where they have proper victors and not drunks who molest you in front of the entire nation. Through the crowd. I spot Gail, looking back at me with the ghost of a smile as re pings go. This one at least has a slight entertainment factor. But suddenly I'm thinking of gail and his 42 names in that big glass ball and how the odds are not in his favor and not compared to a lot of the boys and maybe he's thinking the same thing about me because his face darkens and he turns away but there are still thousands of slips. I wish I could whisper to him, it's time for the drawing. Effie trinket says that she always does ladies first and crosses to the glass ball with girls names. She reaches in, digs her hand deep into the ball and pulls out a slip of paper.
