Notes: Hello, naughty readers, time to suffer!


Hugh doesn't go to the Reaping.

He should have, but one of his patients was dying; he couldn't leave the boy, so he missed the whole thing, start to finish, Reaping and interviews and the start of the Games. It's a very small bright spot in the neverending round. He hates the Games. He'd avoid them altogether if he could, but there's no excuse once the boy gasps out his life, so he joins his coworkers for the second day's broadcast.

He's just in time to watch his daughter die.
