WHEN: An Hour or So Post-Bloodbath
//
Her feet lead her to Robyn before she’s able to figure out where she’s going. They go through the motions with ease. She slides into their arms and squeezes as tight as she can, knowing that nothing can ease the anxiety felt during the Games.
“They got out,” she assures them as she pulls back to encourage eye contact. “That’s the only important thing right now. They got out.”
Her voice feels a thousand miles away as if the words aren’t rolling off of her tongue. Her ears are still ringing. She swore they hummed for days after her own Games. In this instance — this one, small thing — she’s glad that Wren can’t hear. She’ll be spared from the screams, the cannons, whatever creatures they decide to unleash on the Tributes.
On the other hand, she feels terrible for her sister’s naturally enhanced sense of smell. Blood is thick and rich. It stays in your chest for too long.
