So when do the holidays end, exactly?

[7thborn]

Hullo, Finnick.

[Pause.]

I suppose it would be New Year's, wouldn't it?

[protects_her]

So two days from now, right?

private | unhackable

[7thborn]

I didn't realise you were keeping track.

[protects_her]

Helps me stay ahead of the game.

You want to just tell me about the voicemail now and save us both the trouble of waiting?

private | unhackable

[7thborn]

That impatient, are you? It's sort of a long story.

[protects_her]

Good thing I asked two days early, then. That extra forty-eight hours should leave you more than enough time for long stories.

[There's something of a laugh here, but the front she's been putting on for the network seems rather useless now and it sounds like she knows it, too. She did promise.]

Do you have time? I don't know if this sort of thing should even be discussed on the network.

I don't have anything I'd feel bad about canceling.

private | unhackable

[7thborn]

You'll feel bad about canceling it after I suggest we meet at the beach or the forest or something.

private | unhackable

[protects_her]

I'll brave the cold for the beach. I'm not about to go into the forest in the middle of the night. There are lions out there.

private | unhackable

[7thborn]

I'll take care of the cold, don't worry. If you don't mind a bit of magic, that is.

[Pause. And then, a bit quieter.]

I really appreciate this, Finnick. I know I owe explanations to a fair amount of people, you most of all.

If it keeps me warm, I'm not about to be picky about how it does it.

When do you want to meet up?

private | unhackable

[7thborn]

Later tonight? Certainly before midnight.

private | unhackable

[protects_her]

I can do that.
