[ Capitol people and cameras? that she can handle. these strangers? well. she's going to need Peeta's help. she not exactly known for being the friendliest of the victors. she rolls her eyes at him. he really would have fit right in with the rest of the Capitol's darlings.
she wonders, briefly, if she can trust Peeta. bracelet or not. she watched him with the careers in the 74th Games - they had never even suspected that he wasn't actually on their side. but if she can't trust the people from Panem, who can she trust? all of them together is different than she and Peeta alone. because he would absolutely betray her to protect Katniss (and as much as she hates Katniss she couldn't hold that against him). he doesn't seem as likely to betray her when the others are complete strangers. ]
It's a deal, then. [ she closes the distance between him, and offers her hand to shake. maybe it would surprise people, but Cashmere is always good on her word. ]
