Who: Finnick & Dino
What: GHOST AFTERMATH
When: backdated to around April 25th
Where: Hue & Cry penthouse
Warnings: None so far! Will edit if needed

It's been a few days since his visit from Stella and Finnick's been sitting on a lot of information. He had to debate whether to tell the guys; if they found out and thought he was crazy, they might out him to Alex and he'd get in deeper shit with Virgo than he was already in. On the other hand, they're just as trapped as he is and they deserve to know. They may have noticed him acting differently lately anyway. Ever since he finally had enough to figure out the identities of Annie and Mags, he's felt more at peace. There are still dark things in his memories that he hasn't figured out, but now he knows there's something good to go back to. He's still trading out one prison for another, he knows that much, but at least that world is his home.

So with that keeping him going, he finally finds his way to Dino's bedroom door, knowing the penthouse is otherwise empty right now. Still, he knocks softly and glances nervously toward the entrance to the penthouse like he's expecting some Virgo employee to come through the door any moment and stop him from telling anyone what he knows. He has to do this quickly but he has to be convincing.

Finnick shrugs helplessly, folding his arms across his chest and staring at the gap at the bottom of the door, like he's waiting for the shadows of an eavesdropper to appear. "I don't know," he says, "but something is going to happen. Things have been changing around here so quickly. It may be safer to get out."

"If we don't know who, or how, what're we going to... I mean, just sitting around is an option... I know people who know things." He's babbling, so he takes a moment to center himself. "Sorry. I've been told some things by some people. They think everyone who's gone is dead." God, if he wasn't physically hand wringing this wouldn't feel so stupid. Dino just parrots Finnick, crossing his arms.

"I'm sick of living like this."

Finnick knows he'll still be living in fear when he gets back, but at least he knows that fear well. He knows how to endure it a bit longer. This is too much of the unknown, and he agrees with Dino that it's exhausting to live through.

"We have to take a chance if something is going to change."
