It took some serious searching and luck and probably pestering various people who work for the Capitol, but Cuthbert has managed to get a decent slingshot to practice with. He knew he should have been practicing more of his close range and trapping skills, they would serve him better in a place where he wasn't likely to get the weapon he really wanted. But the temptation to practice with something he was comfortable with was just too much to resist.

Which went a little ways toward explaining what he was up to at the moment: firing unpopped popcorn kernels at anything he considered a worthy target in the Training Center arena. That included other tributes, so long as they had something interesting to aim at.

"Damn! These things are just too small."

He wasn't as accurate with the popcorn as he had been with the steel balls he used to use, but far less chance of getting in trouble this way (he hoped). It may not be wise to bend over until he has been disarmed or runs out of ammo.
gruesome: (Grue - What?)

"A game of chase? I know it's for children, but don't humans ever play it?" Some's feeling distinctly ridiculous now, and while nothing's put his hackles up, he smooths the fur of his face with a hasty gesture. It always fluffs up when he's embarrassed.

"Pebbles is a child's game too, what you were playing."
gruesome: (Grue - nervous)

"I wasn't disturbed. I was hoping for- for something other than training to kill and die."

"Only in speed. I don't have a weapon like yours."
