Chris thought about what different means could mean. Did he only mean that this Bordeaux (which being in neither France nor Catalonia, Chris couldn't imagine where it could be) was more primitive than his own beautiful city? Certainly that could not be a point against it. "It is grander than any city in the world, but that isn't a criticism of any other city. I'm sure Bordeaux is very beautiful in its own way."

His smile took on a more subdued note and he shook his head. "Oh, no. I have always lived in the Capitol. But I do travel a lot, for work, to the Districts. I am usually there when the tributes return." Which is what made this season so special indeed. He would get to meet and greet every one of them, in person, without the convolution of his job and money clouding the air.
