W-where's the hospital?
[Zelda watched with a quirked eyebrow as Perry’s features fells to a blank stare. It was a simple question, why would it elicit such a reaction, unless… unless the other girl had come to a realization most would fear in such dire times. Zelda instantly felt overcome with concern and protective instinct, perhaps to make up for what she hadn’t received as a child, but it was no time to dwell on such reasoning.] Of course—of course I’ll stay with you, Perry. [Before she could register her own movements, Zelda was draping an arm around Perry’s shoulders, rubbing her arm softly to comfort her as they resumed their journey to the medical bay.]
[There weren't words to express how grateful she was. She barely even knew this woman, and already she had shown her more compassion and kindness than anyone in the Capitol had in over 11 years. She gave a smile, a hint of how glad she was, as they waited for the doctor. A nurse came, and quickly took a sample of blood from her arm. It was quiet in the hospital bay when she spoke up.]
I feel stupid now.
