Mary and Finnick (with Clark)
Bringing Clark to the bonfire had gone well enough last week that they had decided to do it again. Finnick walked into the bonfire area, with Clark strapped to him with a sling, and carrying his sleeping basket in one hand.
He circulated a bit, saying hello to various people, when he saw Mary sitting alone. He knew that Rose had gotten in a fight with Mary recently, and although he could see Rose's point, he didn't think Mary had meant anything hurtful. He'd felt strange defending Mary to Rose when he hardly knew her. Maybe this would be a good time to get to know her better, to see where she was coming from.
Finnick didn't want to interrupt her since she was reading, but on the other hand, if she didn't want to be disturbed she would probably read at home and not in the middle of a social gathering. So Finnick decided to risk it. He sat down near her and re-positioned Clark so that he could look around.
