Interesting perspective on Clove, but it totally makes sense.

Very haunting and insightful view of Clove. You really described this well and the parentheses made an excellent contrast. I also liked the connections with Cato and how the training works.
Concrit: 2 really small things I spotted. First one is that surely it would make more sense for Clove and Cato to be sent at 18 rather than 16? Older the tribute, the higher the chance of success.
Other thing is "she wishes she had never come into this damn Games" should be "these damn Games".
Like I said, both are very, very minor points and you know you've done well if those are the only things that can be improved on in a fic ;)
Keep on writing,

Ahh.
That's a cry of sympathy.
I never thought of Clove this way before. Wonderful job, congratulations on finally writing for Starvation, and nicely done for third! I've never gotten a mention.
Soooooooooo good, I feel really sad now, it was so profound.

I generally don't lke Clove, or Cato/Clove, but this was lovely. I like how she isn't so bloodthirsty and cruel as some other fics paint Careers into being. Her characteration was refreshingly realistic.
The formatting is also great, it worked really well with your interpretation of the prompt.

(Sorry for taking so long to review, I'm behind on the entries.)
Ah... interesting. I love reading about Clove, and you developed her past well. I like how you give us more information about a character that we know so little about. This is the first time I've seen her written as the daughter of a victor/victors. Fascinating.
I also very much enjoyed your formatting, with the little one-line parentheses. It was an interesting touch.
Also, I loved the detail. All of the little things that you added-her first word, etc. It really added to the piece.
Overall, this was very interesting. I hope you had fun writing it and I'm so glad you entered. Nice work.

I really like Clove as a character and you've added some nice depth to her. Styling was a great way of having that undertone of almost ...I'm not sure how to describe it.
Great Work!
Nice piece fpr the competition

Just felt that I needed to review because something about this story stirred a deep feeling inside of me that I really don't ever feel, and that's saying something.
I always believed that Clove was actually someone - not just a Career whose bloodlust outweighed her judgment and good sense. I believe you captured her very essence perfectly here, and I agree that her character is very interesting.
Thank you so much for writing this excellent fic. :) Please write more!

You made her human! Thanks! I always hate how the Careers are shown as merciless killers, because they have feelings too.
Aside from some spelling/grammar errors, this was "epic"

I am very impressed at what you write "pretty quickly"... xD this was so sad.. you managed to make me feel so terrible for clove, which I would have thought was difficult, considering what kind of character she is in the book.. =/ nice job!

Dismal. Wow. I guess you are going for some sympathy for Clove and I must say - you got it. I like how you start her out arrogant, but eventually her humanity is crushed. Scary.

I liked the way that you wrote that piece. Although it was a little sad, it is a little happier for her rather than in the book. I like how it gives her a chance to tell her story( of course that you came up with) and why she didn't fight back as hard as she could.( and she eventually got what she wanted.
