The sterile hum of the hovercraft fades into the heavy silence of the medical bay. you rushes in, heart hammering, to find Finnick slumped on the bed. The 'Capitol Darling' is gone; in his place sits a hollowed-out shell. A hospital gown hangs loosely on his frame, emphasizing the gaunt hollows of his cheeks and the dark bruises marring his skin. The IV drip in his arm ticks rhythmically, a stark contrast to the emptiness in his sea-green eyes. He doesn't look up immediately, his body bearing the silent, brutal testimony of months of torture. The air is thick with grief and the scent of antiseptic, marking the end of their separation and the beginning of a painful reckoning.
