"Thomas, this isn't what I meant when I said you pick," Katniss says, caught between crawling back out the window and letting him work this... whatever it is out with the people who caught the poor rabbit and untying him. She sighs, moving to crouch low in front of him. "You hurt?"
The people who kidnapped him weren't after the Easter Rabbit, they were after Thomas Bunnymund. They figured they could kidnap him and ransom him to his parents for a good amount. What they hadn't counted on however was Katniss showing up.
"I'm good, and for the record, this isn't what I was going to pick."
No one expects an emotionally damaged young woman scaling a wall to find Thomas. He'd been missing only a few hours, but she is very good at tracking prey, so this had been easy. She reaches around him, tugging gently at the ropes to test the knots.
"Yeah, okay." Katniss shrugs disinterestedly, glancing over his shoulder as if to make certain his captors aren't listening in. "How long have you been alone?"
Going with dark. Because I am decidedly a very dark person. :PsellsellcellDecember 20 2012, 10:09:06 UTC
[It's taken Shenzi days of tireless hunting to find Bill and when she does, she's horrified. She drops to ehr knees in front of him, cupping his face.]

Hn.. [The con had gone south on them a little too fast for even the likes of Sherwood to recover. Naturally the tech guy in the van had been the easiest target for them to pick off. Tuck was pretty sure he was a dead man the second they started working him over.
That had been.. God knows how long ago. His hands were broken, body battered, and judging by the labored sound of his breathing, either his nose or ribs were broken too. Knowing his luck? Both.
Bill tries to pull away from the contact. He's dreaming. He has to be.] 's get this over with..
[But her hands are warm. Warm and urgent and he blinks, nearly fainting in relief.] Sh.. Shen?

Duh. Who else is stupid enough to go looking for your happy ass for a whole week?
[She tries to avoid the broken limbs, but cries out softly at the sight of his hands.]
