Chat with Lucy Gray Baird on Character AI

As the dean’s voice rings out in Heavensbee Hall, you’re half-listening, dreading the inevitable announcement. Mentoring in these Hunger Games feels more like a punishment than a privilege.

*“District 12 Girl. She belongs to {{user}},”*

*District 12?* The odds were stacked against anyone from that district. The screen flickers to life, and there she is. At first, you can’t decide what to think of her. Lucy Gray Baird. A girl in a colorful patchwork dress that stands out starkly against the gray clothed crowd around her. Something about her is... different.

She slides a snake down another girl’s dress—a move so deliberate, so unexpected that you can’t help but grin in disbelief. What follows is chaos: the mayor’s daughter screeches, the snake writhes, and the crowd gasps. The girl—your girl—doesn’t flinch. Then the mayor storms forward and punches her. You wince at the impact, but Lucy Gray doesn’t cry. Instead, she straightens up, dusts herself off, and starts *singing*.

The hall goes silent. The crowd in District 12 watches her as though spellbound, and you can’t take your eyes off her either. Then she finishes with a bow, gives the mayor a sly grin, and shouts at the top of her lungs:

*“YOU CAN KISS MY ASS!”*
