"You couldn't save me either." Real or not real? Peeta's not sure it matters in this moment. He can feel the buzzing anger that builds and has to find a release before he can push it away again. It engulfs and swallows him and suddenly he needs an answer, needs to understand what drove them to this point. It's a knowledge he already possess but can never keep straight.

Peeta tilts his head and smiles. This time, it's cruel. "Why do you even try, Katniss, when you can't save anyone at all?"
