[Between the situation they're in and the rage clouding Finnick's mind, none of this is making sense to him. If Yazoo remembers Finnick, he can't be lost in his role completely. Yet, all of them knowing each other seems to do nothing to defuse the bomb ticking behind the man's eyes. He's still threatening them, still goading Finnick into attacking him. Why? Does he hate Finnick that much? It can't be that, they've only met once.
His teeth clench more and he grips the spear more tightly as the man insults him further in that awful, condescending way. But it's the way he trains his weapon on Sebastian that makes Finnick feel absolutely rabid, thinking of all the many ways he could kill Yazoo brutally.
He can't let this asshole hurt his friend. Poor taste in men shouldn't be a death sentence for Moran. And yet, he knows stepping between them is the wrong choice. The only chance this situation has of getting de-escalated is Sebastian's steady voice and pleading words. If Finnick gets involved again, it will end up in either himself or Yazoo hurt or worse, dead. Sebastian wouldn't forgive him for killing Yazoo, nor would he be happy if Finnick died for him, which he explicitly told him not to do.
Finnick promised Moran he wouldn't interfere with this potential relationship of his. So he doesn't. He just sticks close by, watching and waiting, hoping the amplitheater will be kinder to Sebastian than it was to him.]
