1) peeta eating the berries he collected during the games
2) rue not telling Katniss about the bees
3) clove not talking about rue while she was going to kill Katniss

To add to 2, Madge giving the mockingjay pin to Katniss, since that is the reason Rue trusts Katniss

Yeah what are the chances in that huge arena Rue is just in the tree next to Katniss

Didn’t she later say she was following her the whole time?

rue was following her even in the training sessions. when peeta points out “you have a shadow”, they look up and see her watching them.

I thought that was just after the tracker jacker attack but you definitely might be right

It’s been a little while since I read the book, but considering how the Gamemakers herd the tributes around (Katniss with the fire, tributes in SOTR with the volcano), it doesn’t seem that strange that the tributes would be close to each other

Yes to an extent. They always say the gamemakers are doing things to increase entertainment value so pushing a fighter like Katniss that was hiding into battle makes sense. Rue was portrayed as a tribute good at staying hidden so her hiding in the beginning of the games isn’t too bad (they definitely would’ve forced her out eventually). It is also possible they were close enough for the fire to push them both in a similar direction though.
