That seemed typical to Finnick at this point. But then, they couldn't be a whole district of stereotypes.

"Would you like to learn? I'm sure I could give lessons. It could come in really handy."

"You would teach me?" Shion blinked at him, smiling, "I would love to learn to swim!" It would be useful, it could save his life, and it was something he'd always wondered about, what it would be like.

"I'll see what I can do when we get back to the Capitol. I would be an embarrassment of a mentor for this district if one of my tributes drowned."

He was keeping an eye on Shion in case he fell in, not that he was expecting it. But someone who had been living by the ocean as long as he had, as well as someone who has lived through as many arenas as he had could never be too careful.

"It would be quite embarrassing." Shion agreed. "I don't think R can swim either." Though he wasn't sure if the zombie could learn. He could probably try, even if his coordination wasn't great.

But as it stood Shion was pretty sure that in the case of a arena where water featured heavily, most of district four would drown quickly.

Finnick would never get over an embarrassment like that.

"I don't think I would ever be able to live it down. I'll make a note to take time at the training center when I can. But this next arena is set to start soon. Let's hope it's a high and dry one."

He patted Shion on the shoulder.

[savedbyasong]

Shion smiled, "Let's hope so." Though his smile was a bit strained. The next arena was soon, and Rat was here and he had to deal with that reality. That he would be in the arena with Rat and there would be no way to protect him, because he could barely protect himself.

"Thank you for showing me the ocean." He said softly watching the ripples on the water.

[finnickohdear]

Finnick put a hand on Shion's shoulder.

"You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoy it."

good end?

[savedbyasong]

Shion smiled back, he did enjoy it and the beauty of it touched him as much as the kindness did.

yes, this is a good end spot

Finnick was content to sit there are stare out at the water until the party comes to take them again.
