[Never let it be said that a Career is against learning.
The village provides food-- good food and for free--, but Clove isn't inclined to trust that this will last forever. She assumed her food supply was secure once; three nights of falling asleep with hunger pains were her punishment for that. So, now, she is trying to learn the skills she previously discounted.
Two attempts are already set up. Handmade nets-- string woven together to discourage breakge and tied together in moderate-sized squares-- are positioned. One is laid out in the brush. The other is dipped in the stream, supported by a stick secured on the bank with a small stone structure. It only extends halfway across, and the dark twine shows under the water easily.
She has three other methods with her: more twine and a book on snares, a shoddy hand-made fishing pole, and a sharpened stick to use as a spear. More Cato's style than hers, but he isn't here... So she'll try to learn.
She's talking to herself, muttering as she tries to make a snare. Not as easy as the book makes it look. Her tone is determined, not angry.]
C'mon, Clove. If District Twelve can do it, so can you.

Got someone here like that, too.

Don't bring the person you [really want] would kind of like to see... but they sure can have the last person you ever wanted to see again.

Their cameras are quiet. I haven't heard them. More subtle, too. I don't feel the eyes on me.

Cameras?

[Obviously.
And she's not even joking. Or exaggerating. She seems dead serious.]

Not buying cameras, though. [because that's a level of paranoia she doesn't want to deal with.]
...you got a name, kid?
no subject
[Weird thing? She doesn't glance around as she says this, like a paranoid looking for everything she's talking about. She just... acts like being constantly watched is a fact of life and the only logical thing to expect.]
Clove Athame, District Two. [She hasn't shaken that idea. She is from District Two.]

Seriously? [what kind of name is Clove, anyway] Sorry to hear it.
no subject
[And she's lost.]
