"Good," she says with a nod, not reaching out to hug him but instead reaching up to put a hand on his shoulder and give him a gentle squeeze as she finally, properly looks him over.

He...well, he's definitely looked better. She isn't sure if it's a matter of him readjusting to the amenities in the Capitol versus whatever's available in Thirteen (unlikely), or if he's just been neglecting to take care of himself because something else has been consuming him (more likely). Either way, she steps into the room and, despite how greasy his hair is, pats it down.

There are things she wants to say in response to that. A reminder not the say the wrong thing since the Capitol has ears everywhere, even more so than they did once upon a time when they were Tributes. A reminder that calling her hot mama's kind of inappropriate, even if she technically isn't in a relationship right now (in the eyes of the Capitol, at least, considering James is in Thirteen and she...well, obviously isn't). Instead of those, she just smiles, trying to put on a humorous air. "Is it that you're going to start showering again?"
