[Johanna's answering silence goes on for too long and she knows it. Hallways that change, monsters from nowhere. Everyone's told her things just like this, but it was easy to assume that they were exaggerating, that they were just scared. The ship is bad, she knows, but it can't be that bad. Not after where she's been.

Having Peeta be the one to say it makes it different. It shouldn't, but it does. She's just as stupid as the rest of them, just as weak and as dumb--there's a little door, in her head, and it opens onto a white hallway. The hum of electricity, never loud enough to keep out the screams.

There's an itch in her hand, a desire to just hang up the phone and end this. But she doesn't--instead, eventually, she breaks her silence with a laugh. It's too loud. This was supposed to be a game. She shouldn't be this easy, not after everything.]

And you're sure, that it's not the Capitol running this show. Because I think this shit is getting more familiar by the day.
