ohhhh
so he's plotting his revenge

it's been great, honestly
quiet
i really like it out here

text.

[flightsuit]

It's not revenge! Actually he's helping me out in fact. Weirdly enough.

I was kind of thinking of building more huts up here.
Kind of like a village. But on a smaller scale.
For people like us. The non-city types.

[nockingjay]

for now

more people huh
i guess that might be nice

text.

[flightsuit]

I was thinking more south near the open clearing since there's more space there.

We can keep our quiet little corner here by the lake just for ourselves.
The four of us.

[nockingjay]

oh
ok i like that
the four of us

[ it's not like she cares or anything. ]

[flightsuit]

Us rowdy boys haven't been bothering you?

text.

[nockingjay]

you're not that rowdy

text.

[flightsuit]

I make sure to behave in your presence.

text.

[nockingjay]

i find it very hard to believe you find me that intimidating

text.

[flightsuit]

You sure? There's absolutely a motherly scolding vibe about you.

text.

[nockingjay]

'motherly'

text.

[flightsuit]

A general statement! Cause you're not quite like mine.

Unless you're also a feral woman who lived with dragons for 20 years. In which case, please correct me.

text.

[nockingjay]

your mom was living with dragons for twenty years?

how old are you?

text.

[flightsuit]

[Ah.]

Twenty?

She actually kinda showed up a few months before I got here. A bit of a big whoop surprise!

text.

[nockingjay]

[ holy what. ]

big surprise

so you... saw her?

text.

[flightsuit]

Yeah I caught up with her while she was on a mission to save dragons from enslavement in this nutcase's army.

Bit of an accidental meeting. But she recognized me somehow.

text.

[nockingjay]

[ katniss's mother didn't recognize her when she was staring her in the face for some time after her father's death. that sounds nice. ]

that's kind of incredible

text.

[flightsuit]

Yeah, Dad and I were pretty lucky to find her.

[Until Dad ...]

Actually it was this scar on my chin. Had it since I was a wee babe! My lucky mark.

text.

[nockingjay]

wee babe hiccup
that makes sense though

i bet that was nice for your dad

text.

[flightsuit]

[There's a bit of a saddened smile that comes with reading her message. It's relieving that it can't be seen.]

I don't think I'd ever seen him as happy as the day he saw her again.

[I thought I'd have to die before we had that dance again.]

text.

[nockingjay]

[ katniss's face holds the same expression, funnily enough, but for different reasons. ]

my parents were like that too

text.

[flightsuit]

[Were. He notices the word.]

What happened?

[nockingjay]

my dad. [ blew up? ] there was an accident in the mines

fjsdhfjH THAT'S RUDE

[flightsuit]

[Oh.]

I lost mine too.

[And it's still so fresh in his mind. He's been here in Eudio for months, but that still feels like yesterday. He swallows hard.]

Occupational hazards, he calls it.

love yooouu

[nockingjay]

[ oh my god and she was just going on about how nice it must've been for them. good one, katniss.

for some reason it's the occupational hazards thing that gets her. ]

i'm sorry hiccup
