Daine shakes her head, a startled, twitching movement, as if a bug had flown into her face. It had been nice having another Daine, here, but it hadn't been... it hadn't been right. There was never supposed to be another one of her. She hasn't spent the better part of a year missing herself. And some part of her had expected her disappearance, or at least known it might happen.

It had been a happy accident, the two of her. It hadn't been something she was wanting.

Peeta sits down beside her, and that feels a bit better, like the emptiness in the room is an enemy they're facing down together and not something hanging between them. She shifts, turning towards him once Effie's relocated to his lap. "I'm sorry about Katniss," she says quietly. After a beat, she reaches out a cautious hand and lays it on his shoulder.
