[She stares at him, grey eyes flashing fire again, before she curved up one corner of her mouth.]

Well, guess what? I think the People are all of us, and the Dalish have been doing it wrong for years. So ... maybe you should stop judging yourself by backwards standards.

[slipshot]

[He looked at her a little sadly, tilting his head.]

I try not to judge myself at all. There are more than enough people who will do it for me. Which - which of your parents was elven? [It was probably a rude question but he couldn't help the curiosity.]

[Her answer was, alas, pure Katniss.]

Well, then they are the backwards idiots. [She looked at him sharply then, before she heaved out a breath.] My mother. She was - is - a Dalish Healer with Clan Rosehigh. Don't suppose you've heard of them?

[slipshot]

[He gave a sheepish, apologetic look when she glared at him, but shook his head when she asked.]

No. I ah... I tend to avoid Dalish clans, when I'm wandering. I just thought - well. I thought it was kind, that she kept the People alive in you. [He flushed slightly, looking away. He knew he was probably being rude, but. He was being honest.] Not many would. Backwards idiots, as you put it. But I... It's just nice, I suppose.

[Katniss immediately felt bad, before she waved her hand.] Ir arabalas. I ... I don't know. I have a lot of complicated feelings about my mother. I will always be grateful she thought enough of her children to give us our culture. I will never forgive her for abandoning us. [She looked down at the ground, her voice a little tight.] I suppose it would be easier if she didn't love us. It just made it ... hurt more, when she left and never came back.
