Thinking Of You


Lillith Tavern, District Eight
Victor
Kills- 3
 

2nd: Rosario Saturn, Capitol
 
Killed by Lillith Tavern
Kills- 4
As he watched his son in the arms of his husband, Rosario’s father could not have been more proud of his son. With all the spiteful rumours that were spread about his son’s temperament, he was glad to see them all proven wrong in Rosario’s last minutes of sympathy. Jally, Rosario’s stepfather, tried in vain for two years to reopen the restaurant that had been Rosario’s life since he was sixteen. It was soon taken over by an amateur chef that shared Rosario’s love for cooking, and the business flourished under its new name- Saturn’s Rose.  
 
3rd: Talus Vixent, District One
Killed by Rosario Saturn
Kills- 3
Talus’ parents were away working the Capitol on the day that his coffin arrived in District One, and so his sisters Misti and Lira made arrangements to have him buried. The ceremony was short and sweet, with only his family and his mentor in attendance for Talus, despite his fun personality, never let anyone close enough to be his friend. From the day of his death onward, Misti would color her hair green to match her brother but ceased training for the Hunger Games.
 
4th: Ave Chassing, District Seven
Killed by Talus Vixent
Kills- 2
Ave’s mother sat unmoving in front of the television as she watched her daughter finally fall to the Hunger Games. She did not allow herself to cry for Ave, for she feared she would never recover if she began then. Each day after she woke up, went to work, and went home- hoping all the while in the back of her minds that maybe if she worked hard enough her daughter would come back to her.
 
5th: Nolan Sanders, District Nine
Killed by Talus Vixent.
Kills- 3
In the months following his death, Cleona dropped off into an even deeper depression knowing that her baby would grow up without its real dad and now its stand in father. Her parents were concerned and took to raising Dante by themselves, as Cleona began disappearing for days on end. She could always be found in one of few places, all holding memories of Nolan for her, with a pin in her arm- reminding her even more of her best friend.
 
6th: Estee Garnier, District One
Killed by Nolan Sanders.
Kills- 0
Arrangements had been made just after her leaving by her mother who, appalled at the thought of her daughter engaging in such sport, could never resist an engagement to plan- even her youngest daughter’s funeral. Her send off was grand and elaborate, but her sister, Maybelle, refused to attend. Instead she ran off from her family home and never returned. The two sisters were eventually forgotten, their mutual rebellion against their father’s rule and embarrassment to their family name.
 
7th: Trace Conduit, District Three
Killed by Nolan Sanders.
Kills- 0
Agatha and Edison could not cry enough to display the mourning they felt for their youngest son. It was arranged that he would be buried alongside the deceased members of his family in the graveyard a block down from their house. On the night before his burial, Edison crafted a small lantern to be buried alongside him- remembering that Trace had always been afraid of the dark.
 
8th: Leila Pierce, District Six
Killed by Arena.
Kills- 0
Karla and Ivan Pierce hugged each other tightly as they watched that house come crashing down on their only daughter. Her death had come as no surprise to either of them, but they found some condolence in the fact that she went quickly. Leila was buried along with many small gifts given by her friends. Leila would never have believed she had so many people who cared for her.
 
9th: Daesel Winston, District Six
Killed by Arena.
Kills- 2
Daesel’s aunt could not understand the reason behind all the people at her door offering her a box with a boy in it. Each time another knock came she would stand from her dining table and tell them that they must have the wrong house. She would then to return to her meal with her husband, her niece, and her nephew who for some reason always brought a lovely girl with him to dinner.
 
10th: Lior Montserrat, District Two
Killed by Blaise Allenby.
Kills- 1
Lior’s elder sister, Rumor, never forgave her sister for the betrayal that happened on Reaping day- when Lior volunteered in her place and rendered her training useless. Her father was humiliated, and soon rejected that Lior ever was his daughter. Left with only one hope, he poured every ounce of his strength into training his youngest daughter, Astrid, who cracked under the pressure and committed suicide one year before she was to volunteer.
 
11th: Trojan Trinity, District Two
Killed by Blaise Allenby.
Kills- 0
In the days after his death, Trojan’s mother could not pull herself away from the television screen with hope of seeing her son once again smiling on camera. When Peacekeepers brought her son to her in a coffin she screamed at them and told them to take it away, that her son was not dead but still fighting. That year and every year after, she would sit in front of the television and wait to see her son again.
 
12th: Blaise Allenby, District Five
Killed by Suicide.
Kills- 2
No one in the Allenby family knew quite how to react to the news that Blaise had been Reaped. His three older brothers moved back into their father’s home to watch the Hunger Games in stunned silence. His father, surrounded by his children, and his mother, surrounded by only her empty house, both shed silent tears for their youngest son. Neither of them could agree on a proper funeral and so two were performed separately, just as most things in the family had to be done.
 
13th: Insi Barnett, District Five
Killed by Lillith Tavern.
Kills- 0
Even years after Insi’s death, the district can never truly say who the Red Lady was. It seemed almost fitting to the few who knew Insi’s secret, that she should be finally punished for her years of terrorizing the district. No one ever claimed Insi’s body and so she was cremated and sent back to the Capitol.
 
14th: Rowan Birbark, District Seven
Killed by Rosario Saturn.
Kills- 0
His parents understood that their son was dead from the moment his name was called at the Reaping. However, both still sat solemn and silent on the couch each day in hopes of seeing Rowan was alright. His death his them both like a tidal wave and even months after his burial they were left with a hole in their hearts. Two years after Rowan’s death, they took in a young boy named Luca who was left an orphan. As he grew up, his mother would swear she saw Rowan in his eyes every time Luca looked at her.
 
15th: Cosette Davonport, District Four
Killed by Ave Chassing.
Kills- 0
When Cosette arrived in District Four, her older brother, Tyson, was the only one to meet her coffin at the station. He did not leave her side until two weeks later when he finally allowed for her to be properly buried, believing that his absence from her life was the cause of her death. Her mother soon joined her in the earth, her youngest child’s death pushing her to drink enough to finally forget her failures. Tyson lost his house and was often chased out of the cemetery where he would join his family every day, just trying to keep them together for once.
 
16th: Iora Winsil, District Eleven
Killed by Daesel Winston.
Kills- 0
Iora’s family watched her murder in tears, each of them taking silent responsibility for her early passing. Her mother for the words she spoke that caused her husband, and only financial source, to take off and leave the girls to take out tessarae. Her sisters for making Iora’s fifteen short years of life a hell through their constant jokes, all of them taken too far. Iora would rest forever in serenity, never realizing the true impact her death had on her broken family.
 
17th: Tate Raveling, District Ten
Killed by Daesel Winston.
Kills- 0
Cyber and Sage watched with guilt-ridden eyes as they failed to save their only child from an early death. Tate was buried under a scrawny tree in their backyard, his family knowing that he would prefer the solitude. The pain of losing Tate was too much for Sage, and Cyber could once again only watch as he buried his wife on the sixth anniversary of Tate’s passing. He lived the rest of his life in Tate’s shoes, numb to world around him as he did nothing but watch.

18th: Revela Iva, Capitol
Killed by Nolan Sanders.
Kills- 0
Revela was placed to rest beside her brother Dorre, another victim of the Hunger Games two years prior. Young Olka, Revela’s seven year old sister, would grow up in the hatred her two siblings left behind. An expectation that she too would grow up and fight in the Hunger Games some day. With the fire of revenge even more deepset in her than in her sister, Olka would volunteer for the 101st Hunger Games where her fate to be put to rest with her siblings was sealed.
 
19th: Verlynna Feddarys, District Nine
Killed by Ave Chassing.
Kills- 0
Her parents talked about her every night she was gone, hoping that somehow it would help bring her back to them. Most times it left them only with an empty feeling, realizing that they had very little to say about her. Three days after her coffin arrived, holding her body that now was paved with even more scars, Verlynna was buried in the local cemetery. Her family looked on, both silently and guiltily wondering who their daughter really was.
 
20th: Vivian Mayhall, District Ten
Killed by Lillith Tavern.
Kills- 0
From the District Ten jail, Vivian’s mother was never given news of her daughter’s Reaping or resulting death. Her stay was extended twice on account of bad behavior, namely attempted escape. She cried on many nights, accusing the snickering guards of blocking Vivian’s letters and visits from her. Eventually she died in prison from starvation, never knowing the fate of her only daughter.
 
21st: Adira Cipher, District Three
Killed by Rosario Saturn.
Kills- 0
Adira’s mother could not be found to receive her body so her coffin was brought to her grandfather’s house. He accepted the coffin, but could not bear look at the box which held the granddaughter he had rejected for all her life. In the end, Adira was taken to be cremated in the Justice Building and her ashes mysteriously stolen by a young boy with a number for a name.
 
22nd: Daire Ellis, District Eight
Killed by Talus Vixent.
Kills- 0
The night before Daire’s death was announced, his older brother Mitchell didn’t come home. Within two days, Daire’s other brother Nate had lost both of his younger brothers- Daire to the Hunger Games and Mitchell to a widespread gang fight. He turned to the bottle even more than he had before, spending seven nights a week trying to be drunk enough to forget their names. After one particularly bad night, Nate woke up with both their names carved into his arm. He thought it appropriate that their memory should be painful to him.
 
23rd: Markus Ronaldo, District Four
Killed by Lior Montserrat.
Kills- 0
Markus’ younger brother Tryton was heartbroken upon his death and refused to leave the house even months later. He had lost his brother and his best friend, but came to lose much more over the next few years. A year and a half after Markus’ death, his best friend arrived at the Ronaldo house to invite Tryton on a fishing trip. They have been inseparable ever since, having filled the void Markus left in each of them even just this little bit.
24th: Kanyon West, District Eleven
Killed by Rosario Saturn.
Kills- 0
After Kanyon’s death, the West family was given just days to grieve before they were sent back to participate in the spring harvest. Kanyon’s burial was delayed for weeks after his passing to accommodate for the work days, but in the end he was laid to rest in the local cemetery where all his family and friends were finally given the chance to mourn him properly.
