Arc

A Pit Champion who will not speak to Carl (ch. 8), has given up on everything (ch. 11), and supplies the Latin and Greek from Firas's lap (ch. 36). Teleported out of a saferoom by an empty blood bar (ch. 54). Donut's plus-one in a jacket of stuffed butterflies (ch. 64): she reaches the top fifty on her own just as a queen raises a hand at her (ch. 65), kills the warning light with one butterfly (ch. 67), plays the guitar like a virtuoso (ch. 74), and pulls the rest of the jacket when the last lightning comes (ch. 76). Her face does not heal (ch. 77).
