Who| Callista and Venus
What| Venus starts to go through medical withdrawal and finds one of the people in the Arena who won't take advantage of that.
Where| Candy Arena
When| Towards the end of week one
Warnings/Notes| Venus is going through medical withdrawal, so mentions of that. Also, mentions of Ian's body.
Callista was still pretty shaken from Ian's death. She had stayed with his body for a while, certain that they'd come for it, but when it became clear that they were going to let it rot in that place, she had left. Despite their friendship, she had no desire to watch someone she enjoyed being around decompose. She bit away the worry that this meant she wouldn't see him again. Grief was painful and would cloud her judgement.
She had used the cape of his costume to cover his body. She knew that he deserved a more respectful send off and she wished that she could make a pyre, but it was too risky to start a fire. Instead, she bundled up what she could of the pieces of extra costume he had had on him--the Clark Kent pieces--and carried them with her as she moved on.
Then her time was spent finding another place to meditate. She had spent the days and nights in the same spot, eyes closed and mind clear. Once again, she was stubbornly refusing to play the Game.
Despite that, she was still aware of the sounds around her. When she heard someone drawing near she moved to get a good spot to see who it was. She didn't want to put herself in danger so she needed to see the other Tribute before coming up to them.
