Misery loves company.

So, after spending an unintentional week in isolation after her talk with Carolina, South left a brief filter for Haymitch in the journals, You. Me. Lux. Now., and headed down to the lounge to wait for him.

After finally coming to terms with the news she'd received, she'd fallen into a numb state, and now just the thought of being next to another person was comforting in a way she wasn't prepared to admit. Of the teammates who either shunned her or who she had shunned, and of the people that she'd randomly met since she'd arrived, Haymitch was the only one that sprang to mind when she couldn't stand to be alone any longer.

When he arrives, she'll be leaning her arms across the bar and resting her chin against them, staring into the bubbles trapped in the ice in her glass.

Believe it or not, she's already set a second drink aside for him.
