Hello-hello! The art was rushed and I don’t know how I feel about his outfit or this writing I had legit had writers block but here’s Ollie’s parade, also many apologies for any bad grammar or spelling this was a little rushed and is not my best writing! Very glad it’s not based off of that lol Tap for a better view of his outfit ………………………………………………………………… Olle gardener D12 age 12 Olle had spent hours chatting with his designer as they attempted to prepare him for the parade, it sounded so cool! They tried to wash the dyes and stains out of their fur but it didn’t come out, though it wasn’t a huge deal since it they matched his outfit. His outfit wasn’t much from what he could tell, it was a small orange bow tie that connected to a black glittery cape that rested along his back with a forked end. His designer drilled it into him that he had to hold his cape shut until he was near some cameras or the district cats. All he could do was say he’d try his best! He always try’s his best. Soon it was time, he was ushered away from his designer though she said he’d see her again. And stepped onto his chariot, it seamed awfully boxy, and dark, but when he turned around to ask about it his entrance had turned into another wall and curtains. It was a little strange but it didn’t bother him much, until the ground grain swaying slowly and through the curtains a gust of wind blew onto him. This didn’t feel like some sort of carriage, was he in a helicopter? That didn’t seam right, he shock his head, all that confusion was getting the best of him, he needed to focus. Olle clutched his cloak shut tightly, his designer said first expressions were everything, so he really needed to not mess this up. Before he knew it the curtains swing open, it shocked him for a moment, squinting his eyes shut before opening one then the other, the looked up in awe the clouds and city and drones taking pictures, he smiled and waved a paw cheerfully, carefully following his designers instructions. He looked down, seeing the colorful crowd as the balloon approached them,it was stunning! And overwhelming.. he could see the line of hot air balloons holding the rest of the tributes, it was so cool! Soon he was memorized as Lanterns approached them, soon floating all around the tributes. the black ones matched his balloon! He was a little jealous of the other districts colorful balloons, but the black also matched his cape. He looked down and realized they were approaching the crowed, he realized now was the moment. With the tap of his paw he released his grip and his cape fell back, revealing the inside as a colorful pop of glitter, the 3 colors matched his stained fur and an antennae and wing like finishing touches appeared, he put both his paws on the edge happily, waving at the crowd below and talking to the drones and admiring the beautiful sight. He now was pretty close to the crowed, as his ballon had been slowly approaching them, he felt like he was actually talking to them! He happily mewed and smiled as pictures were taken and he waved hello, it was so thrilling! We’re all the cats who launched the black lanterns there to support him? He knew was going to win this game! Even if he didn’t know what they were playing yet, some sort of tag he figured, a giant game where you tag someone there out but don’t get tagged yourself right? Soon it was over, to his disappointment, he didn’t want to go back to the boring training center, he loved the attention and experience! But there was no arguing with the peacekeepers, with a shrug he padded away. Come to think of it he was really tired, but tomorrow was a new day for him to train and tell dingdong and toast and everyone how awesome this was! He also could wait to get back home and tell his friends and mom! This was a once in a lifetime opportunity! He knew he won something when his name was called just didn’t know it was this good.
