Finnick effortlessly stopped himself from rolling his eyes. He didn't know whether this thing (alien? creature?) would turn out to be helpful or aggressive, so he had to play nice for the time being. He didn't think it would go over well with this "superhero" if he admitted to knocking out those two officers, so he decided to get to the point. He lifted the trident a little so that it wasn't pointed directly at his new friend, but he was still ready to strike or defend himself.

"I'm looking for someone. Someone who might be a little hard to find." If she's smart. Finnick didn't add that part. He had a feeling that people might not want to help him if they thought he was going to hurt Katniss, which he definitely was not planning on doing. "I was hoping some inspiration might strike."
