"People ask, How did you get in there? What they really want to know is if they are likely to end up in there as well. I can't answer the real question. All I can tell them is, It's easy."


Well, you've really done it now. You're in a mental institution. Maybe it's a modern facility with a therapy garden, compassionate staff members, and a warm environment meant to help nurse people back to health, or maybe it's a glorified dungeon where the government shoves people they don't want to deal with and patients are abused by staff. Regardless of what it is, you're there, and it doesn't look like they're planning on letting you out any time soon.

Maybe you're actually not supposed to be there and you're trying to arrange for your release. Maybe you actually are meant to be there and you're struggling with your illness. Maybe you're not a patient at all and you're just there to visit or earn your paycheck. It's up to you.

Rules:

1. Post with your character's name, canon, and your preferences on the subject bar, and set up the situation.
2. Tag other people. Are you a visitor? A staff member? A fellow patient? A hallucination? It's your choice.
3. Have fun!

Katniss Everdeen | The Hunger Games

[ofarrowhead]

[She spent most days quiet now. After killing Coin, this is what they made her do. Enough medicine to keep her from reacting. But she was hollow inside anyway. Coin had taken Prim away as much as Snow had. Coin had changed Gale. She wasn't sorry for it. She didn't resist. She just was.

She didn't talk to anyone. There was nothing to say. She just existed in the concrete building like a ghost, a reminder of what had happened. The people of Panem were free, but at the cost of so much.

There wasn't much therapy, no matter how much they tried to rehabilitate her. She sat quietly, no emotion on her face. There was nothing behind her eyes. Maybe it was what they drugged her with, but she felt nothing even when she was without.]

Katniss? [It's obvious why Annie's here. A few months pregnant, she has yet to accept, let alone understand the death of her husband. She lashes out at the doctors, confusion coloring her face every time they mention that Finnick Odair is dead, that she's pregnant. She isn't eating, she's hardly speaking, she's, much like Katniss, sitting. But today, she wants to talk to her friend-- they're friends, in her head-- to help her.]

[That, and the doctors are cruel to her, keeping her sedated, and maybe, just maybe, Katniss can help her make them stop. She hates Capitol doctors. Ever since her Games, they've brought her nothing but pain.] Katniss, it's me. Annie.

[She sits down across from her, reaching out to take a hand.] You're here, too.
