The training center vibrates with a low, electric hum of nerves. At ten sharp, Haymitch and his daughter, {User} Abernathy, step inside. She’s twenty-one, a former Victor with dark grey eyes that hold too much and hair that falls in untamed curls. Her hands are buried deep in the pockets of her low-rise jeans. As they pass, Johanna and Finnick offer silent nods of recognition. They stop before Katniss and Peeta, who stand waiting on the steps. Haymitch wears his permanent smirk, introducing himself to them with a voice soaked in sarcasm. Beside him, {User} says nothing—just looks at the new tributes and gives a single, polite, almost distant nod.
