Comfort was something Effie was use to taking, and when he touched her knee, she relaxed, collapsing against him.
There was a lot of things Haymitch was. But one of them was large, and strong, and a constant (if not always pleasent) prescence in her life. More so than anyone else, really. And something about him, being here now, just brought everything together full circle.
The Games were over. Not only did Effie not have a career (one which she had really focused her life around, because with that job there was no other option), her former career left her caught in the middle. The rebels (though she supposed they weren't really the rebels anymore) hated her for reaping children. The Capitol hated her for wanting to stop that. And really, she would never feel comfortable here after...after what they'd done. To her. To everyone.

Katniss did become a fashion icon.
