[The video starts with a young man's face, a fringe of blond hair over uncertain eyes. His jaw tenses, but his voice is calm and steady when he speaks.]

This city's sort of like a clock too, isn't it? It's like another Arena, just with nicer allies.

[Because everyone that he's met has been kind to him. Surprising, when he knows that he should be dead now, or at least in a lot more pain. But somehow he escaped.]

The only thing I really need to know, the only thing that matters is if there's a girl named Katniss Everdeen here. Or maybe she was here and got away.

[Even better.]

I know I should be thankful just to be alive right now, but it won't mean anything if she's not okay too.

[ She knows that voice. She knows that face. Katniss goes into instant freak-out. ] Peeta!

[unkneaded]

Katniss!

[Peeta feels his heart skip a beat. He leans closer to the video, like he thinks he can go right through it to where she is.]

Where are you? Are you alright?

[empowers]

The house. Our house -- Our -- Peeta, I can't believe they brought you back again. Just wait there. I'll come to you. [ She's in full panic must-get-to-Peeta mode. Too bad he doesn't remember anything. ]

[unkneaded]

Our house? You mean that god thing?

[Has she been there while he was out looking for her all along? That's star-crossed for sure.]

Hey, it's okay, just breathe. But what do you mean by brought me back again?

[Oh. Oh. Peeta. It's Peeta and he's back, and somehow that just makes his insides twist, but at the same time he's flooded with relief. He has to take a few moments, to himself before responding. When he does he's all smiles.]

You're back. I'm really glad that you're back.

[unkneaded]

Finnick? You're here too?

[And he's thankful for that, thankful for all of them to be out of the Arena. But he still has a lot of questions about that.]

What happened? How long have you been here?

video.

[tradingsecrets]

Yeah, I've been here for a while maybe almost a year.

[He rubs the back of his neck.]

Has Katniss found you yet?

video.

[unkneaded]

She's on her way.

[It's distracted, because a year. He keeps thinking about that.]

So these gods, they're the ones who rescued us.

[guidethesun]

I don't know any Katniss -- but then I haven't really gotten around much here -- but I hope you find her, from one boyfriend who loves his girlfriend. to another.

video.

[unkneaded]

Thanks, but I'm not her boyfriend.

[Peeta thinks for a moment. And well, it can't really do any harm, can it?]

I'm her husband.

[Correction, it can do him harm because Katniss might kill him.]

not even here.

[guidethesun]

Oh. Sorry.

But that's great that you're here. Your wife'll be pretty happy to see you.

[ Totally unaware of the repercussions that Peeta will suffer. ]

Anyways, I'm Eugene Fitzherbert. Nice to meet you, Mr. Everdeen.

video.

[unkneaded]

You'd think so, wouldn't you?

[Chances of him getting a slap for that? High. But he can barely contain his amusement.]

Peeta's fine. Did you find your girlfriend here too, Eugene?

[partinglass]

[Have a smile Peeta, you look like you need one.] I don't know about this Katniss person but if she's here, she probably saw your message.

Welcome, anyway.

[unkneaded]

Yeah, I was hoping for that.

[He smiles back at her.]

Thanks. What's your name?

[partinglass]

You shouldn't worry too much. [Especially if you're important for that girl.]

I'm Beth Greene, you ?

[pratentious]

The two of you are difficult to keep separate for long, it seems. She will be glad to see you again.

[unkneaded]

Not as glad as I am to see her.

[You're back. That's what Finnick said, and now this man speaks as if he knows about him and Katniss.]

Are you a friend of hers?

[pratentious]

[ He cleverly turns his snort into a cough and scrubs at his mouth a moment. ]

Not - not exactly, no. More ... acquaintances, if you will. [ A bit generous to say, but alas. ] I am a friend of Finnick's, though, and - a few others of Panel as well.

[becauseichooseto]

It would seem that you've found her. Congratulations. [No, he's genuinely pleased for him. Romana coming in has given him a spring in his step, so he's happy to find that someone vaguely knows the same feeling.]

[unkneaded]

Thanks. Maybe things can get better now.

[becauseichooseto]

Well, it'll certainly be easier to manage.

[asthehero]

No idea. What's so important about her?

video;

[unkneaded]

She's just special. She saved my life.

[asthehero]

Yeah, I'd say that's pretty important. Nobody told you you can view the whole list of travelers on the bracelet? You can check for her name...or anybody else, too.
