exactly a hundred words of odesta for the Caesar's Palace ship week (prompt: lost together) and for Caesar's Palace's "Decorate the Palace Challenge" (prompt: nocturne). Also for Chelle, because she's a musical gal.


They're like a nocturne out of sync, the left hand playing its arpeggios too slowly and the right playing too harshly. There isn't an accent there, her music teacher probably would have said, but she supposes there isn't really a music teacher who teachers partners how to make their song work in harmony.

Annie and Finnick are lost, but at least they're lost together. She thinks that with a little practice, they'll find each other again in the dark, and learn each other by heart, and the broken chords will turn into waves, and the bittersweet melody into an allegretto.
