[HELLO, EVERYONE. Nice and trauma-filled from that horrible vacation?

Haymitch isn't here to make it better.]

Judging by all the unhappy faces, I take it didn't go well down there. Maybe next time you'll take a lesson from those of us who were smart enough to stay behind. Might not be the best place, but at least we know the ship wants to kill us all. [Snicker.

Annnd there's a pause, because while he knows Peeta's gone, because he hasn't checked in, and that stings after losing Katniss, (and with Finnick and Annie in bad shape) shock of shocks, he has other people he cares about.]

Anyone happen to notice a little girl tagging along down there? Goes by Mattie Ross. She'd be the one with braids, preaching justice to the locals and making a damned fool of herself. Hard to miss her.

[AND NOW HAYMITCH GETS TO BE AWKWARD.]

Don't know which one of you yanked Annie Cresta out of all that, but it's appreciated. Finnick's in no state to thank you, himself, so I'll save him the trouble.

All right, talk. I know at least one of you went down there and both of you can't be in as bad a shape as the rest of them. How bad was it?

It wasn't that bad.

[in some crazy opposite land world ... ]

What I'm hearing says otherwise.

If we got out alive, it wasn't that bad. [give the boy a gold star for that attitude. AND NOW WE WILL DEFLECT.]

I didn't see Mattie out with us.

[....HE CAN'T ARGUE WITH THAT.]

Probably gone then. Peeta's gone off somewhere, too.

Not the best news to come back to.

Oh, you were expecting good news, were you?

I don't know what I was expecting. I almost didn't think I would come back.

Well, you did. Not that the homecoming's all that great. Better than the ship exploding while you were out there.

It's true. I think I'd miss you.

Well, you'd get over it. [Oh, look. He's laughing. DEATH IS SO FUNNY IN PANEM.]

[he gives a short chuckle back bc they're both so horrible i guess.] It's not like I'd have much of a choice.

Admit it, though. You did wonder if it would be better- what they were doing down there, as much like the Capitol as it sounds, they've done worse.

Yes. Okay, a little. That doesn't mean I wanted it, though.

Well, we don't want most things we get handed and we get them anyway. Sometimes I think the blasted ship's no better than Panem.
