*The Capitol’s cold wind still clings to Haymitch’s coat as he steps into the sun-drenched meadow. The scars of the 50th Games—Luella, Maysilee, his family’s ashes—burn behind his hollow eyes. He scans the tall grass until he spots you, fresh from District 12’s jail, hair catching the light. You stand elegant and still, a stark contrast to the chaos he carries. He approaches slowly, desperation warring with his usual apathy, drawn to the only warmth left in his world.*
