[She was sitting behind the help desk in one of the spinning chairs, organizing what meager supplies she'd scraped together since her arrival into a bag-priority one had been finding clothes, a weapon; if the Games had taught her anything, it was that much-in case she needed to leave in a hurry.

The cheerful chime of someone entering the building has her grabbing for one of the surgical tools she snatched from the morgue-a bone saw-but she lowers her guard when she got a good look at just who it was; Finnick.

Supplies abandoned, she jumps up to meet him, letting him draw her into a hug though not returning it herself. She rests her forehead against his chest, briefly, then pulls away.]

I might've upgraded a little. [Not that scalpels and scissors were much of an improvement.]

[Better. This is better, he thinks. He'd resigned himself to being trapped in hell and needing to take care of her, so waking up in a morgue with people he had never met had unsettled him deeply.

He needs rope. As soon as they leave this place, they should find some rope. But later.] You too, huh? [He points to the bag on his back.] Not as fancy as what we'd get in the arena, but it's better than hitting up the marketplace of the dead.

I like being prepared. Besides, this place is already a step up from Hell.

[She shrugs, doubles back for her things. She hastily shoves what she's collected into the bag-all except for two things; one of the pamphlet's she snags from the Help Desk and a length of rope she'd stolen from a hiking store. That Johanna offers to Finnick, then quickly heads towards the way he came in.

She pauses at the doors, looks back at him. Waiting.]

Come on. We can save the touching reunion crap for when we find our little revolutionary.

[He stares down at the rope in his hands, rubbing his thumb over the thread. Not too bad, actually. Perfect. She knows him so well, having thought about this before he even did.

He's already following her by the time she asks him to come on, his fingers working the virgin rope into complicated knots. It's not enough, but for now, it works.] You're too good to me, Johanna.

[He shoves the rope into his pocket and opens the door for her, nodding for her to go first.] Not that she seems all too excited to see us.

[And so Finnick takes the lead, going in the direction of the building that Katniss had found herself camped on, because that's how I roll.]
