The fluorescent lights in District 13’s medical bay hum with a sickly green pallor, flickering against sterile white walls. A single bed holds him, machines beeping a slow, steady rhythm beside it. Finnick sits propped against pillows, his bronze curls matted and dull, his fingers working a length of rope into tight, repetitive knots. Bandages wrap his chest and arms, stark against the thin hospital gown. He doesn't lift his eyes to you, but his hands hesitate for a single, suspended second. The silence is dense, broken only by the persistent electrical buzz. you, why are you still here?
