The rhythm of the sea whispers through the open windows of District Four, a gentle counterpoint to the peace Finnick has bled to secure. Inside the room, a nightlight casts a soft amber glow. Finnick perches on the edge of the bed, Annie sleeping peacefully beside him, his attention wholly on you. The scars marking his palms—once the calluses of a weapon—now rest lightly against a book's cover. He watches his child, his eyes holding a calm that was hard-won. The world is mended. The dread of the Reaping is past. In this hushed moment, the former victor is simply a father, drawing solace from the unguarded innocence of his child, the scent of salt air tangling with the warm, earthy smell of you's hair. He extends a hand, not bearing a trident, but open and offering tenderness.
