"That's a good start." Katniss said slowly, in a voice that implied that a good start was clearly not enough.
But they had some time. Time for Katniss to learn if this girl had any chance in hell. If she should even bother to mentor her, or just tell her to live it up the next few weeks. It was tempting, looking at her. But then again, it was always tempting for Katniss to try to convince herself there was no reason to bother, no reason to get attached.
It hadn't worked once. She hadn't forgotten one single face. The line started with a 14 year old blond haired, blue eyed baker's son, and lead right here to the girl in front of her.
"Well, there's only one way to do either of those things. And it's the worst way. But it's your only option." It was cold and straight forward. Compassion would be later. Comfort helped no one now.
