Panthea had one leg dangling, the other on the branch. She didn't care if someone came. She had spectacular aim and she personally believed she could take on anything and anyone. Which was one of her many reasons she wanted to go into the Games. A wicked smile grew on her face at the thought of the new challenge. But that didn't matter at the moment.
She had said she was from District Eleven. Isn't that working in fields and getting fruit from trees? She must stay on the ground. Or maybe she doesn't work at all. Panthea shrugged a little and closed her eyes, relying completely on her sense of hearing. She only opened her eyes when she had said that she hoped for this to be her last time of meeting someone from another district. Why was that? Though, she could understand with the games. Getting to personally involved with someone could ruin everything. However, Panthea was sure if she came across anyone in the games - besides Racham - she could kill them. Was she really that heartless? Yes.
"I don't really care if I meet more people or not."

Lyra was not surprised that Panthea did not care. She did give off the aura that she could handle herself if she needed to. Lyra knew that she could not fight someone directly, but there were ways of avoiding a fight. When it came to that she was quite skilled. She had rarely have to use those skills since she did not go looking for a fight. Though there was always a chance that she would encounter and unexpected fight and she knew she had to be ready. She sighed when she thought of the possibility of fighting another person. In her opinion some people were to aggressive and ready to fight.
She wondered what to do now. She could try to ask more question, but she would have to tell something about herself first and there really way nothing she wanted to volunteer to Panthea. "It must by hard to hunt in the wild like this. Finding berries that can be eaten is hard enough. You do not want to pick a bad berry and end up dead before you know it." She knew the berries that grew in the wild and which one were good to eat and which one would cause harm to the human body. She looked down on the ground wondering if there was anything to see in this area.

Unlike Lyra, Panthea was the pugnacious fellow that was always looking for a fight. Someone just had to say something the wrong way an she'd be ready to throw them down and beat a face in. Though, despite her attitude, she hardly ever did get in a fight. Either Racham was there to interrupt it or the kid chickened out and ran off. Sure, she could catch the kid if they were strong enough. And she knew she could easily pick them off with her arrows. But she wanted to beat them, not kill them. At least not yet. If she were to enter the Games, that would be a different story.
Then Lyra brought up the hunting. This made Panthea smirk. "Hunting is easy if you have aim. The only hard thing is waiting. Deer and other animals can hear noises even if you think you're silent. So usually I have to wait up in a tree for an animal to pass me by. When I see them, it's over. That's how good of a shot I am." Panthea took a lot of pride in her aim. It was one of the best in the District and she knew it. This often made her cocky. "Berries are for people who can't hunt." Despite the comment, Panthea knew she needed to learn which were harmful and which weren't. Her father just told her to watch and if a bird ate them, they were safe. But she had never really seen a bird eat berries before.

Lyra listened to Panthea's explanation. She did have a point, though she did not have the best aim and she could not spend to much time outside of the district. Last thing she needed was the peacekeepers finding out what she was doing when she was not attending school. "Not all of us have the luxury of learning how to hunt. Though when it comes it plants and cultivating then them that is a different story." She was very proud of her skills when it came to gathering edible plants, she could not remember the amount of times she went over the plants with her father.
"Plants can be used for more than just eating, you can poison people and even heal certain wounds with plants. Plus you don't need a fire to cook them, you ca just eat them raw." She liked discussing plants as much as she liked to tend to them. She would not mind a future where she tending to the plants that the district grew.
