Another way to look at it is their comfort comes with an added side of safety. Numbers do wonders in the early days of an Arena. As a group, single Tributes are less likely to approach for fear of being overwhelmed, and their sharing resources means they stay alive just that much longer. If Delilah said anything to the effect of her thoughts, Albert would shoot her down immediately. This was his plan in the first place, to find their allies and stick together as long as possible.
"I take it you don't mean the kind for omelettes." He takes the duct tape with a raise of his eyebrows, clearly approving at the haul. "We'll avoid them, though I suspect the Gamemakers can likely hatch whatever's in there at will. Maybe we should try and seal the area off."
Not that there would be much of a point, but he's gone too long doing operations for rescue, for protecting others, that it's hard not to view the Gamemakers as the main enemy and try to thwart their plans, even if it would extend their time here. "The tape is a good find. It works as a bandage and stitches in a pinch and we can make weapons with it and the metal and pipes." They'd ripped a couple of those from an adjacent corridor, thinking to rig up some makeshift weapons. A jagged, duct taped spear is better than nothing.
"It's been fine here, if boring." If boring means stressful. He's supposed to be resting while the more restless go hunt for supplies and allies but he can't manage to sit still with his adopted sister and his husband off potentially getting into trouble. "Did you run into anyone?"
