For a place that often preludes death, Leon finds the training center significantly more freeing than any place he's ever been to before.
For one thing, there aren't nearly as many people looking down at each other and him over the slightest mistakes, as other careers-in-training are likely to do back home (and isn't home so far away now, and isn't it strange that he calls them careers-in-training when he's nothing more than a kid with an early death sentence?). For another, there are pockets of peace between throwing down with the trainer on the wrestling mat and trying to drive a blade deep into a dummy's neck, and Leon can appreciate that.
Right now he's got one hand on the window of the training floor, staring down at the crowds of Capitolites going about their day without enough care in the world to even think about the idea that their tributes are the slaves to their will, slaves to their desires and wishes. Leon doesn't find the thought as horrifying as it should be, though; it intrigues him, because these are all paths unfurling for him to take and he'll take whichever is brightest.
Sighing quietly to himself, Leon steps back and turns to look over the other busy tributes, none of them pausing to think about what choices they might make, where their path might be leading. It must be an easy life. And then he chuckles humorlessly to himself. No, not really. Shaking his head clear, he focuses on the nearest tribute, quirking his eyebrow when he recognizes Owen Bowers-Fox. Someone looks good in those clothes.
"Hey," he says, crossing over to the other boy. "What are you up to?"
