Predictably his eyes go straight to that peek of her cleavage.
Peter huffs out a sound like a laugh. He can get behind being “freakishly attractive”. From what he understands of this whole Arena thing, being good looking can only work in his favor: he hopes it’ll make the other Tributes less likely to stab him in the face and the sponsors generous with their wallets.
The way the girl jigs the bag, he’d say it’s loaded with stuff. Even she looks like she won’t be trouble, then maybe she’ll share. Sharing means he doesn’t get his choice pick of whatever’s inside but it also means he won’t get an eye taken out if he was to fight her over it. Peter weighs the pros and cons. She already knows his outlaw name, so she can’t be all that bad, right? He saw his Tribute score on TV before they booted him into the tubes: assholes hadn’t even bothered to spell his name right.
“Thought I’d find some cover or the high ground. Or whatever,” Peter hedges a little bit about where he’d really like to go. Even if they decide to team up, he knows damn well it won’t last. No point telling her every place he’s interested in. “You going the same way, gorgeous?”
