One thing that makes me extremely emotional is how Peeta is the maker. He makes food with water and flour, he makes art with paint.
And Katniss mentions how she can't create, how she needs Cinna to pretend that she's designing clothes. She is fire, and fire destroys, or transforms.
She has the bow, and its use is to kill. Killing is what keeps her alive throughout her life, she kills to eat, she kills to survive, she kills to end the war.
After the war, she has children and she says how difficult it is to carry them. Getting pregnant, producing life, being the maker herself.
I just think it's beautiful that with love and healing she is finally able to create, to make. She continues to be the fire, but it uses its transformative potential , the same as transforming dough into bread, and not its destructive potential.
here’s 3 things from when I played re2 a year ago before I somehow glitched the game and got stuck at the helicopter that, I, personally, think are very leon coded
hey mom, how do i get rid of the feeling that im running out of time? how did you ever get rid of it? does it ever actually go away? does the idea of you being so disappointed in what ive become when i had so little time to figure myself out ever disappear? what about the look on your face when i get a bad grade or break something? will that empty feeling in my chest ever leave? mom? mom, why do you not love me anymore? mom, what's my favourite colour? you never knew, did you. you never bothered to ask me what it was or ask what my favourite season is or favourite piece of clothing or if i like the edge or the middle of the brownie. mom, why did you stop coming to my performances? why did you stop inviting grandma and grandpa? am i not good enough? i try as hard as i can, i promise! im trying so hard! mom, what did i do? what did i do to make you stop loving me, to make you stop hugging me and tucking me in and singing that song about the moon to put me to sleep? i know im too old for lullabies now but can you hold me in the rocking chair in the corner when i have a nightmare? i have them so often and i can never tell you about them anymore. you stopped answering my questions about the world a long time ago, didnt you? you haven't bothered to ask if i'm ok since i was seven, how am i expected to carry this weight? when did you stop missing the past, mom? when did you stop longing to be a little girl again, oblivious of the world around her?
May be an obvious answer considering, but do you think Ada will make an appearance in Death Island?
I’m hoping yes, maybe on a job as a tie back to her ending in 6? I also want to see more of Leon and Ada’s relationship post 6.
I do not think she will show up. It’s already a lot with Jill and Rebecca and Maria (spoiler?) she’s shown in the trailer.
I will always want Ada to show up lol but if there’s no real reason they will not have her show up. I’ll watch it anyways but yeah.
I will always want them to show their relationship more and expand it. I mean like all we have is “that one night” and then them being married in re6 (🥲🥲🥲) but I would have also loved to have seen Ada in infinite darkness. But also didn’t make sense for her to be there ig
While the weeks progress I find it difficult to think that I will need to go back to being someone's child, I have been allowed to belong to myself for far too long to want to go back. right now I think I could drive back to my mother, run back if needed, over three state lines, just to hug her. But still, I can't think of letting myself be hers again, not belonging to myself, to every day in that house have to wake up and put on a face that is not mine. I think I will miss her even if i am not wanting to be hers, I think I will cry when I force myself to be hers once more. it's all so simple, but somehow so strange to think that I will be so at peace and so unhappy at the same time, I will be with people that love I am there, but I alone will be unhappy to be in their presence, but even then I am happy to be there, not with them, but to be there.
not to be dumb or a nerd or a dumb nerd but what is the wire mother vs cloth mother classification about. the whole point of that experiment was that almost everyone almost always picks the cloth mother bc we as human beings desire tactile comfort. well that and giving monkeys depression but that’s beside the point
