Then I hope they get what's surely coming to them, one day.

[furgood]

I left in the middle of what we all hoped was the last battle of the war. In the Capitol itself. [Her lips lift into a small smile] I can only hope we succeeded.

[devoutish]

You're calmer about it than I would be. Less angry.

[furgood]

I wasn't...it's complicated. [She waves her hand a little and glances away.] I wasn't there to fight.

[devoutish]

I should hope not. But civilians suffer during war, as well.

[furgood]

Everyone suffered. And there were different sorts of suffering.

[devoutish]

Yeah. And all that suffering, it often leads to anger, doesn't it. But not with you. Do you ever get angry?

[He says it lightly, but is pretty curious about how she'll answer.]

[furgood]

Once...I mean there have been far more many times that people were angry on my behalf. I don't really... [She looks at him, unsure] Does it matter?

[devoutish]

No.

[He waves a hand, dismissing his own question.]

No, you don't have to answer; no.

[Her lips press thin and she continues to look at him for a few more moments, uncertain ]

I suppose I just don't--[She shakes her head a little and brushes back her hair] Not all suffering leads to anger, you know. Sometimes it's just sadness.
