[ That tone is enough to undo him; it's everything he hates, whatever would make a person feel that way - would make Katniss, the strongest person he knows, feel that way. But of course, the Capitol is sneaky. The Capitol is clever. The Capitol knows how to steal peoples' voices and use them, twist them, as all of the tributes saw in the Quarter Quell. As all of Panem saw, of course.
As a reminder to the rebels that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the Capitol.
No, maybe the strongest among them couldn't - there's him, Johanna, and whoever else was picked up to attest to that. But there's also Katniss, the mockingjay who survived not once but twice, living proof that the strongest among the rebels can still give the Capitol a slap in the face. Not without retaliation, no, but there's a certain pleasure in knowing that she's out there somewhere beyond their reach - as she must be, because he's not so naive as to think he'd be kept alive if she weren't, not with his complete inability to tell them anything of the rebellion and face not so loved as hers among the people. He's certainly not so naive as to think he'd be used against Haymitch, who proved so spectacularly that he only plays for his own side. His family is nothing to the Capitol. So - it's clear.
He may be a lot of things, but Peeta Mellark is a Victor of the Seventy-fourth Hunger Games, and that means he too knows how to survive. There's nothing but relentlessness when he speaks, almost harsh. ]

That's not an answer.
