So, right before the Quarter Quell. Cinna seems to understand the likelihood of his own death.
Finnick smiles a little in memory of that night. Her wedding dress going up in flames to reveal the actual dress: a mockingjay.
"We didn't see Snow's reaction, but Cinna, the dress was incredible." He squeezes Cinna's hands for emphasis. "Beautiful, elegant, stunning, shocking. That was the moment she became the Mockingjay. The symbol of the revolution. You turned the tide, with that one. And then Peeta dropped this incredible bomb- a lie that Katniss was pregnant, right on stage. Genius. Everyone in the Capitol was calling to stop the Games that night. All the Victors held hands, and they cut the feed."
What a moment. What a night. He'd been terrified, but exhilarated. A taste of possible freedom.
The rest of the story isn't so good, but he wants Cinna to bask in his achievement for the moment.
