Sometimes life is about having fun, but nothing about this place is fun, and everywhere Hal turns, he's reminded of where he is. Weapons clash against one another. Trainers are barking orders. People are walking around. It's all so overwhelming which is why he wants to take time to clear his mind before everything comes crashing down.
I just want to go home.
Nothing is like home. The beds are horrible. The chairs aren't comfortable. The tables are more expensive than his entire house, and it's disgusting. People here have so much, and seeing it, seeing the splendor, the riches, everything, it's almost too much. But it's only temporary even if the games doesn't go according to plan. Yet his mind is focused on trying to have fun, something to distract himself, and maybe the best thing to do is do something to remind him of home. Something that will give him some peace. Others may find it funny, but at the end of the day, Hal isn't here to impress anyone. All that matters is doing what he has to do to make it out of this place alive.
The corners of his lips twist into a grin as he makes his way over to the camouflage station. Paints and so many other props line the tables, and he doesn't even need to pick up a pamphlet to look at what it's going to take, and in that moment, he knocks everything to the side and grabs some leaves. They aren't the same, though, but it's as close as he can get. It feels as though his inner child springs to life, and he takes some tape and starts taping leaves to himself. This isn't how hiding works, yet none of it even matters. All that matters in this moment is having some fun to push away the thoughts that are busy occupying his frantic mind.
