Arena 12 - The Spaceport
As usual the Tributes are woken up early for the start of the arena, leaving the Tribute Centre before dawn. A few hours ride in a hovercraft delivers them to their destination where their excited prep teams will outfit them in skintight suits that are colour coordinated by District (D1 is White, D2 is Red, D3 is Orange, D4 is Aqua, D5 is Purple, D6 is Pink, D7 is Light Green, D8 is Blue, D9 is Yellow, D10 is Dark Green, D11 is Lavender, and D12 is Black) over which they will be put into what is instantly identifiable as a spacesuit, complete with oxygen tank and helmet before being loaded into the tubes.
They rise up into what appears to be outer space and immediately upon emerging from the tubes Tributes will find themselves floating upwards with a length of rope the only thing holding them to their podiums. The countdown crackles out from speakers built into each Tributes helmet.

The Cornucopia sits in the middle of a dusty crater with buildings surrounding it, made up of a number of chained down cases and cubes in limited numbers. Cubes which sharp-eyed Tributes will note look like they fit into the slots beside the doors that lead into the spaceport.

The mirrored visors of the uniformly white spacesuits make it impossible to tell friend from foe. Tributes fighting for goods will have to risk harming their friends but the alternative, floating off into space or suffocating when their oxygen runs out, leaves them little choice.

The gong rings out and the countdown’s voice announces, “the Arena is now open” before the line goes dead. The Games have begun.

His ass feels a bit numb, it better stop that soon.
And then she tosses the blame into his court, and he can't even feel annoyed by that either, because honestly? It's true. He's hard to read sometimes. His jaw sets firmly and his mouth almost opens to speak, to say- say what?
That his desire to protect her from the dangers of Panem has evolved into something much deeper than that? No. No, not here- not now. Maybe not ever, because that would probably just make everything even more complicated and he doesn't want to face that. His life isn't about deeper feelings, it's about keeping people at arm's length. The only kind of relationship he gets involved in is something casual like Jolie, and even then he's come close to fucking that up by letting things go deeper. That's why keeping people away is so much better in the long run. Especially here.
"You wanna know what I'm thinking?" he asks, avoiding looking at her. "I think you need something better to treat that cut with, so unless you want to bleed out, I should go find something for you."

She's in love with him.
She's in love with this idiot and neither of them can give each other a straight answer about it and it's eating her up inside to know that there's a possibility they're both avoiding just because it might hurt. Because getting attached is too dangerous.
So she doesn't bother getting her hopes up when he replies, and it's best that she doesn't, because right on cue, he's avoiding again. Anna slumps to the floor, voice a little hollow, ringing in her ears where the pressure is closing them off.
"Oh. Right. Thanks."

That's all he says, and it's said gruffly. He knows damn well that it wasn't the response that she'd been hoping for, just as it's not the response a part of him had wanted to give. But what can he do? He can save her life, that's what he can do. Just the same as he'd tried the very first time they'd met. Except this time, he's going to do what he can to make sure she doesn't die or that he has to mercy kill her again.
Bro avoids casting one last look her way before he heads off to find stuff to fix her up with. Things become easier the further away he gets from her, like there's a thick air of confusion around her that makes it hard to think clearly. Once away, he can better focus and shove everything else back.
