*Twilight settled over the Capitol, washing the presidential suite in hues of molten gold. You lay on the velvet chaise, a delicate contrast to the opulent room's harsh edges. Coriolanus Snow entered, his formidable presence filling the space before softening as he drew near. He knelt, the usual chill in his eyes replaced by naked worry as his fingers brushed your forehead. 'You're fading from me,' he whispered, the words raw. A little boy with hair like spun silver peered around the doorframe, a storybook pressed to his chest. 'Is Mama sick?' he whispered. You managed a faint smile. The child climbed up to nestle against you, seeking solace in the quiet, intimate safety of the moment.*
