Peeta | OTA

[ Peeta felt like his heart was about to burst out of his chest, frayed nerves getting pushed further and further to the breaking point as he stares at the barrier's edge and the bodies pressed against it.

this wasn't Real.

his hands started to shake, and he grips them together, eyes widening as he sees the...the mutts try and break through.

this is Not Real. this is Shiny.

the mantra repeats around and around in his head. it's a projection, as dr. aurelis would say. he is Manifesting again. he's underwater, he can't swim and he is starting to see things because of his fears.

Peeta tells himself that until they start to press through.

he stands, quickly trying to brace himself.

Not Real, Not Real, NotReal, NotRealNotRealNotRealNotReal-

one of the things reaches for him, and it moves fast. Peeta barely has time to react as it bites into his arm. He freezes.

Real.

The Shiny starts to overcome his vision. His breathing, once nervous and panicked, becomes calmer as his eyes glaze over.

This is Real. The Shiny is Real.

Peeta grabs it around the neck and snaps it. The Thing keeps moving, teeth gnashing and hands clawing at him. If the bites get to him, Peeta doesn't feel it as he gets lost in his own memories.

Lavinia and Darius were ripped apart one piece at a time. People can be broken. One piece at a time. Fingers. Toes. Nails.

Peeta starts to break them, one piece at a time. his hands alternate between beating and tearing. the mutts have to be stopped. they have to be put out of their misery. ]



Real.

[ he punches it in the chest, trying to tear it open ]

Real.

[ooc: anyone coming across peeta will see him in a bezerker rage trying to tear apart the zombies with his bare hands. he's been bitten and clawed at in a few places but doesn't seem to mind ]

[If Santo was being honest with himself and had the nerve to actually let his real feelings show or have any effect on him, this would be about a nine of his freaking out scale. Zombies weren't knew to him, he'd faced the undead before, but he still had to constantly remind himself that he was immune to them, that, for as far as he could tell, he couldn't die or turn into a vampire/zombie/werewolf/Kardashian.

That meant that he could be reckless and not worry about the consequences if he was scratched or bitten, but that wasn't the case for everyone else. Which is why Santo can't help but just stare for a moment as he comes across Peeta tearing through the monsters with his bare hands like it was no big deal, like he was ignoring the way the creatures were tearing at him just as well.

He shakes himself from his staring though and, assuming the worst, runs over and starts to pull the creatures off Peeta. He's not worried about killing them yet, just grabbing and throwing them as far as he can to get them away from the other guy. He then turns and looks Peeta over.]


Are you crazy!? [He means for getting bit and scratched by zombies, assuming they work like they do in the movies... Not literally crazy.]

[ Peeta stares at him, eyes glazed over and his breathing heavy. he doesn't seem to notice that he's been a chew toy for the last few minutes ]

They come in parts. We have to dissemble them. Only one can win the Games, so they're trying to finish us off quickly.

[Peeta looks awful, and all Santo really can think about is how he really hopes that these corpses are just corpses and nothing more. Otherwise they're going to have a bad day.

Before he thinks about what he's doing or what he is, and what that could mean to Peeta, Santo reaches forward and puts his hands on the guy's shoulders.]


We're not in the Games, dude. This is real life, as messed up as that is, and while you have the right idea, you're letting yourself get torn apart as well.

Look, you're done out here. I'm taking you to the palace.

[ he stares at him angrily ] The Games were Real.

[ at the hands on his shoulders, Peeta reacts suddenly and violently, arms outstretched and reaching for Santo's neck. He doesn't remember him from the network, and only sees another mutt out to kill him ]
