[Prim’s smile lights up when the com turns on at last - although it fades quickly when she turns to face the screen. Wherever she is – wherever that explosion sent her…]

Hello? [She hesitates; but if the Capitol sent her here, they already know who she is anyway. Most people did, anyhow.] My name is Prim. I’m looking for my sister; Katniss. She might be looking for me.

[She hesitates – but you can’t ask to get something for nothing, and respect a response. So.]

It wouldn’t have to be for free. I know a lot about herbs – I could help heal you; if you’re sick. Or pick out herbs for you.

Hello there young one. Is you sister coming to collect you?

[He can read that she's here, after all.]

[andproper]

I don't know...

[servingmichael]

Did you speak to a Greeter yet?

[andproper]

[She shakes her head.] I don't think so?

[servingmichael]

You're still on the baseball field, yes? Look over towards the dugout. There should be someone standing there. Likely with a great many pamphlets in their hands.

[andproper]

[She's just going to glance about, then.]

[servingmichael]

Anyone? If not, do you see that apartment tower? One is broken and burned out but the other is rebuilt.

[andproper]

What happened?

[servingmichael]

There was a fire. Do not be afraid. The rebuilt Tower will shelter you until your sister arrives.

[A pause.]

Or I can come to you and stay with you until she does.

[andproper]

I think her friend is coming. [She doesn't know what else to call Peeta, right now.]

Do you mind? [She can use some company.]

[servingmichael]

I don't mind, no.

[And a moment later, Raphael appears with the sound of the flutter of wings and a soft clap of thunder. His face softens a little and he holds out his hand for her.]

Hello Prim. I'm Raphael.

*action

[andproper]

[She's a little less certain, now that he's suddenly appeared before her - but she does off her hand.]

Hello.

*action

[servingmichael]

[He smiles slightly, posture relaxed and welcoming. He takes her hand, and squats down to her eye level before shaking her hand.]

You're in a place called Siren's Port, in Canada, if no one has told you yet. Would you like to wait inside the apartment lobby?

*action

[andproper]

[She nods.] I'd like that.

[Raphael offers Prim his hand, intending to use his presence, and the fact the girl was with him, to keep the company hounds at bay.]

Then off we go.

[andproper]

[She gives him a wide smile.]

[He tucks her hand in his, electing not to fly her inside - most humans find it unpleasant - and escorts her inside.]

Your sister's friend then is coming to pick you up, yes?
