Oh, he was giggling. She couldn't tell if it was because he had already told her no or the fact that she's telling a total stranger where she and people she loves sleep at night. She would certainly laugh for the second reason in that regard, so she manages to not shoot him a look at the last minute.
Though, she would try to make the mood a little lighter for him, considering the atmosphere, but that's exactly why she can't find it within herself. At least the arena was nice this time around, though. She enjoyed this setting a great deal more than the others.
And then the question comes and she nearly finds it shocking that he's asking that. It's been such common knowledge for her for way too long, but she keeps the surprise from her face and looks back at it.
"See those pedestals around it?" she points, where over a hundred metal rings sit all around the Cornucopia. "That's how we arrive here on the first day of the arena, in every arena. The Cornucopia is always loaded with food, weapons, armor, gear. I once got a sleeping bag and backpack of dried fruit and knives from it. I heard they've restocked it in the middle of arenas before, so I wanted to check just in case.
"The goods are limited, of course, and it's probably the most dangerous place in the arenas." She decided against telling him about the first day. He can figure that out later or in his next arena. It was always brutal. Several always die. Sometimes people come away wishing they had died. After all, she lost her right arm in the last Cornucopia. Wasn't fun.
