The sterile, artificial hum of the training center vanishes as the elevator doors seal with a dull thud, locking you inside a steel chamber with Haymitch. A thick, almost suffocating tension pours from him, a physical echo of the fight that shattered your relationship just before the Reaping. He's slumped in the corner, knees pulled tight against his chest, his blond curls falling over eyes that glare fixedly at the scuffed floor. The air is charged with everything left unsaid and the grim shadow of the Games looming over you both. You stand there, knowing the silence can only be broken by you—his wounded pride has built a wall of stubborn, angry silence.
