A future? [A wry sort of grin, because he knows that's probably not what Haymitch meant.] I don't know. I was kind of always promised that maybe I'd get to grow up and have a normal life with a wife and maybe kids or something. At the end of the day I think all I want is something permanent. Whatever that means.
