I wonder what would happen if the illusion is broken. We might ask Zephyr about that.

[furgood]

I don't know. Just um... I guess they can pretend that I'm from somewhere else.

[devoutish]

And we won't take you to any beaches.

[He winks at her.]

Yeah, we told my family that Royce was an old friend from the war, if I remember correctly.

[furgood]

[Grin ] I'd be the talk of the town for sure. What would you even do with me huh?

[devoutish]

Take you to Hyde Park; I told you. I've been through there; I've got memories.

[furgood]

[She shakes her head ] No--nefur mind. Of course. I've only been to these tiny little parks. Scraps of green.

It is a green sort of park right?

[devoutish]

Yeah, of course. Very big, as well. There are fountains, hedges, grass lawns--

[furgood]

Sounds beautiful honestly. [Little smoke ] You can take me whenever you'd like.

[devoutish]

Anywhere?

[furgood]

Anywhere. Whatever you want to show me.

[devoutish]

Then I'll extend the same to you. Whatever you wanna show me, I'll see.

[furgood]

Deal. Though I doubt I'll show you much beyond Four. You've no interest in setting the Capitol.

[devoutish]

Do you have interest in me seeing the Capitol?

[furgood]

[Pause ] I don't know. There's beautiful things there but a lot of awful things happened there. Happened in Four and Thirteen too. But I don't want to show you those.

[devoutish]

Sounds to me like the true beautiful things are in Four.

[The Capitol's beauty always rings false to him, when he hears it described.]

[furgood]

You're biased. It's what I've told you about.

[devoutish]

All the beautiful things are not in the Capitol, at the very least. I don't need to be biased to know that.

[furgood]

[Faintest smile ] There can be beauty in the most horrific things. Whether you can see it or not.

You know, I did bring you a present.

[devoutish]

I know you did. Food and a present.

[He affectionately tucks a lock of hair behind her ear.]

Would you like me to open it now, then?

[furgood]

Yes, yes let me just-- [She snags the box from where she'd set it down and places it in his hands. It's relatively small. ]

Had to wish for this.

[devoutish]

[Something special, then. He meets her eyes for a moment, then looks down at the little package so he can start to carefully unwrap it.]

[furgood]

[Its hard to keep still while he opens tree box. She bounces on her heels. Within is a ring with a a green cats eye gem.]

[devoutish]

[Oh, wow. He takes it out very carefully and examines it, setting the box aside and turning the ring over in his hands before slipping it onto his middle finger, right next to one of the rings he already wears. He then holds his hand out for her inspection. Nice, eh?]

[furgood]

[Tiny smile] Fits in well, I think.

[devoutish]

Yeah. Fits the gap left behind by the one I gave to Royce, as well.

[He pulls his hand back, admiring it.]

It's gorgeous. Thank you.
