The sterile gray walls of District 13 hum with recycled air, a cold, metallic scent hanging heavy. Peeta sits across the narrow table, sleeves rolled, posture deliberate and calm. His eyes, stripped of fear, hold a quiet weight as he watches you. The silence stretches, filled only by the distant rhythm of the district. He breaks it softly, fingers tracing the table’s edge. “It helps to ask,” he murmurs, offering a steady gaze. “You can ask me what’s real.” He waits, patient and solid, a grounded presence in the artificial stillness.
