Brother,

It's been difficult, being apart, but I am pleased to have not seen you on the battlefield any longer. I have to assume this means you're sticking to your guns and giving yourself distance to recover and flourish. From your last letter, it sounds true, though I do understand the difficulty in finding what to do with yourself in the absence of the fight. I'll give you the only advice I can give, having gone through only a solitary period of inaction.

Preach, if you want to preach, my friend. Sing, paint, dance, clean if that's what you want, or make a mess as a form of rebellion. Do what you want simply because you can. Revel in that freedom. Even lead, if you feel you're up to it and others will follow. I still would, though I am hardly a factor being stuck on this side of things.

Sam, while I think people would follow him and he would be a good leader, would give too much of himself. I fear it would leave him in the same position we are, not knowing how to take care of himself again, and the onus cannot all be on Barnes, or us, to do it for him in the off hours, even if we are willing. I worry for him, as I worry for you and the rest of our family. Even so, for where he is now, I'm sure he is well taken care of. Be angry over it, we all should be, but know that anger is fuel on the fire that will lead this rebellion to a worthwhile conclusion.

I've been thinking a lot on what you told me before I was captured, on taking care of myself. I'm doing the best I can, but it's not in me to step away from the fight, not when there are things that can be done on this side. We have a plan to get information to 13 that will allow a final siege and minimize casualties during same. Jet and I are committed to this course, and we envision this war finally, finally coming to an end. I don't care who takes Snow down, but we intend to offer as much of the means as we can.

As for what will happen to us, I can promise you we have been taking care of each other and we will continue to do so after, one way or another. As you said, we are survivors, none moreso than Jet who has worked through what the Capitol has done to him admirably and is back to his old self. He does still have moments of staring into space, but he doesn't mistake himself for decades ago any longer. It's a relief, considering where he was before. My anger at that, too, fuels the fire. They made a mistake when they messed with our family and the Hell to pay for Snow and his cabinet will never be enough.

I look forward to seeing you again soon, my brother, preferably in the brave new world we've been working for. Maybe then I can take a page from your book and lay down arms to pick up a brush or an instrument again. Perhaps we could compose something together. I'd like that.

Keep yourself and ours safe as much as you can. I'm forever in your debt for that.

A. Heinrich
