Second Drink
[Haymitch has finally decided that maybe, maybe, Peeta isn't crazy and they really are living in a magical castle with people from other worlds. Maybe. Of course, that doesn't mean he's not on his guard. Even if this is what people say, it doesn't mean Snow or any of his Capitol stooges couldn't show up and ruin everything. Given what Finnick told him about the future...well. Better to be safe than sorry.
And Haymitch was prepared to keep those kids safe rather than sorry at any cost.
And so, he's sitting in the Lux, occasionally glancing at the drink of whiskey he can't have until someone hands it to him, flicking through his journal pages. Eventually, he deigns to talk]
Okay. So let's say I'm more willing to buy this magical castle idea. I want to know more about it. What makes it tick. Some of you have been here for years, apparently, you must have learned something in all that time.
I'm sitting in the Lux, if you'd like to play sharetime. We can have a drink, learn a thing or two. It'll be fun.

Just with alcohol? Or is it the glass itself? [Because she's got a box of straws.]

So I can hand you the glass and then you can drink it? Or do I need to hold it too?

Here, we can try this. No charge so we can figure out if it'll work with it just being from me. [She'll pick up the glass, fill it, and then hand it to him.]
no subject
Now that's the sort of work ethic I could get used to. [He takes the glass from her and smiles. Hey, it worked] Good to know that's still an option.

I'm Jo. [Since, she figures it's just polite.]

Are you enjoying your stay at the castle?

You might wanna watch the tone when you're talking to the bartender that hands you a drink.

Yeah. I get told I rub people the wrong way.
