First Loaf [IM/Action]
Sorry it took so long to get back here, guys - some, uh, things came up that I couldn't control.
[One would never know that Peeta spent the better part of the summer in the hospital or got attacked over Thanksgiving by the slightly sheepish grin he gives the rainbow - he'd had a few chats with Jehan and Finnick while he was away so he's been kept generally up to date on what's happened, but he isn't about to go spilling his own story so soon after arrival. It's not that important in the grand scheme of things.]
Looks like things are getting kind of crazy around here, with all the different pantheons showing up now, but, it's Christmastime, so we should be able to relax and focus on good things for awhile. Things were getting kind of hectic at the bakery, but I did bring a huge tub of gingerbread, chocolate mint cookies, and hamentashen if anyone wants to drop by Cabin 4 for some later. [He gives an eyeroll here.] Don't worry Finnick, I brought your croissants, too; you don't have to go hounding me about that. Even though you're probably going to.
So yeah, it's good to be back, and welcome to all of the new guys I haven't met yet - and, uh, when you get a chance, let me know if you've got any food allergies. I need to update my list since we've got so many new people.
[So he doesn't accidentally kill anyone. With a smile and a brief wave, Peeta breaks the connection. If anyone wants to find him, he'll be unpacking in Cabin 4, with stacks of baked goods to hand out to anyone who drops by.]

Lbr this will quickly be turning into action anyway.
The staying here part isn't that bad. I'm used to it, anyway.
Well obviously yes. Peeta might drag you somewhere to get whatever it is off your chest
no subject
Hey.
no subject
[The second thing is Peeta himself, mostly unpacked (as much as one can ever be in camp) carrying an overlarge box with a brand-new standing mixer in it. He knows Finnick more than well enough to know that something's bothering him, so it's best to take him somewhere more private to let it out.] I need to take this over to the kitchen, do you want to come?
no subject
Sure, just lemme put the croissants down. If anyone steals them I may have to hunt them down. [Which he does, then moving to help Peeta with that box.]
no subject
I've got it, don't worry - but let's get out of here before you eat the entire cabin out from under us.
[The small tease is said with a grin, though, as he starts out the door in the direction of the kitchens.]
So how's it been while I wasn't here?
no subject
Cold. Chiron finally made me put on a shirt sometime last month.
no subject
Aside from your ongoing quest to be as naked as possible.
herp derp ignore my fail
No worse than mine!
Talking, or just staring at her?
[Off tot he kitchen, doo de doo.]
no subject
...Booooth? Yeah, um. Both.
no subject
[Because this is important, okay. If she keeps hiding from him, she might not be interested in a romance and might just be too quiet to tell him. In which case Peeta will probably need to play go-between.]
no subject
no subject
Have you tried letting her talk? Asking her about things, like her family or her hobbies or anything else she likes to do? If you really like her that much, you need to get to know her.
no subject
Yeah. It's um, well. You know how she ended up here.
no subject
Yeah. Are you saying she doesn't like to talk a lot then?
