[open + closed] nothing to keep me from the storm
Who: Cashmere + you
What: After being gone for 5 days, Cashmere returns to the hotel with the fury of 1000 suns
Where: All over the hotel
When: June 8th
Warnings: likely violence and ugly crying
Cashmere wakes up in the boiler room on the afternoon of June 8th, having disappeared without warning five days earlier. Five days in hotel time, but less than two for her. The last thing she remembers is the sharp pain of Johanna's ax cutting into her chest, but that's gone now. She thinks back - before that? Katniss' arrow in Gloss' chest. It doesn't take long for the realization she's returned to the hotel to sink in, on her feet and eventually yanking the door open with a frustrated scream and one goal - to find Katniss.
It feels like something inside her has snapped and though she's exhausted and afraid of what it means to be back at hotel ( she's dead this time. really, truly, dead just like Johanna said. there isn't anything left for her in Panem and nothing for her at the hotel.) and is propelled by the rage that threatens to spill over and the need for revenge.

She starts with the lobby, yelling Katniss' name as though it might get her to appear. She stops to interrogate anyone she sees, and if they were expecting Cash to be happy to see them again they've pick the wrong day for a reunion. Those from Panem won't be surprised to see her verbally lash out at people - it's falling back on old habits. She's fresh from the Games and it feels like everyone is the enemy.
She does stop by her room to be sure nothing's missing, and will respond to any tablet communication.
closed - Haymitch
Despite being told otherwise by literally everyone she's come across, Cashmere's next stop after the public areas of the hotel is Katniss' (now former) room, pounding at the door. "Katniss! Katniss! Come out, Mockingjay. Don't be a coward." There's no answer, but she's already convinced herself the girl is hiding inside.
She catches Haymitch's approach from the corner of her eye, stopping her tantrum to move protectively in front of the door. "Don't come any closer," she warns. "Unless you're here to help me find your stupid Mockingjay."
closed - Hook
After her run in with Haymitch, Cashmere's finally given up on finding her nemesis but it hasn't done a single thing to make her feel better. If anything, it makes her feel worse - too much pent up anger and no outlet for it. She returns to the lobby in search of an answer (or maybe a fight. probably a fight). She's looking positively feral: wild eyed and charcoal-dirtied hands that hint that she'd even gone so far as to poke at the fireplace like it might be filled with secrets. Cashmere doesn't notice him until he's close enough to touch her, distracted by her current task of looking through all the drawers of the front desk.
closed - Trip
Exhaustion finally wins over, but not until after Cashmere has completely trashed her room. It'll cause quite the ruckus for her neighbor. When he comes by to see what the hell she's doing, he'll find that she's pulled the mattress from her bed's frame, the table and chair have been overturned, and her belongings are scattered everywhere. She tried unsuccessfully to smash the window with her suitcase, and it lays discarded on the floor.
All knocks on her door she ignored until she's finally tired herself out. Cashmere hadn't been expecting Trip (or anyone, really) and rolls her eyes when she finds him waiting in the hall. "Can I help you?"

Haymitch hesitates, uncertain of her reaction but he tries a step closer. He remembers this feeling -- a searing hot poker to the gut. Walking into his home in the Victor's Village, then... nothing. Nothing at all. By his standards, she's handling all of this pretty well.
"He won't win. He can't, and you can't let him."
It's a guise the Victors know well -- stolid, strong, emotionless. The moment Snow knows there's a hole in their defenses, they're done.

"He took everything. He always takes everything. At least nobody touches me here, right? All I had to do was die!" she glances up at Haymitch from the floor, which seems to be where she's decided to have a mental breakdown, to demand another answer from him. "What happens to One? What happens to my District?"

But maybe he has won -- maybe when he gets thrown back to his home, it will be much the same way. Ravaged, taken over by the Capitol still despite their best laid plans. The idea alone leaves a sour taste in his mouth.
"Listen, sweetheart, I don't know much more than you. I know where I'm from, you're gone." And so is Peeta -- whisked away to the Capitol perhaps? Shot to death? He isn't sure. Carefully, he steps up to her, crouching down in front of her, not touching her, merely making her meet his eyes. "As far as I know, your district is fine. Probably will stay that way. There's a revolution, it's starting, and I don't know who will make it to the end."

I fucked up, Haymitch. We should of run away. I knew they were going to pull our names. We should have left and - I don't know. He didn't deserve this. He protected me.
