hot take: katniss is a revolutionary female hero because she’s not really a hero. she fights for people, not for a greater good, and she’s willing to do awful things for her family, including killing innocents. she believes in a revolution because she wants freedom, not because “it’s the right thing to do.” she’s not a quirky female hero who always knows what to say. she’s awkward and self-depricating and blunt and not likeable, which is implicitly stated in the books and movies. she’s not comfortable in feminine clothes, she hunts, she’s scared and social uncomfortable in a way that makes others uncomfortable. she’s volitile in a way that’s very different than the normal quirky female lead, she’s not some manic bipolar idea, she’s a real person with genuine issues. she’s harsh and sharp and cruel and mean and she’s not perfect. she’s not even very likeable. she doesn’t speak much to others and when she does, it’s mostly angry or cutting. but she’s astounding and breathtakingly tragic while being real and raw and absolutely human.

Do you think kids during the industrial revolution had that same weird millennial/gen z experience of having technology change so much while they were growing up

Most people I know had that one movie as a kid; that one movie that they would watch over and over and over to the resigned acceptance of their parents. I’ve always thought that movie says something about a person. What was your movie?

if you ever feel down remember that 18 year old pureblood Regulus Black went against the most powerful dark wizard and did a switcharoo with his horcrux leaving a note with it that pretty much said “bitch U THOUGHT”

I hate how cold and distant I must seem to other people, I just wanna scream at them that I do like them, I probably love them just for being decent to me. Why can’t I express my god damn emotions right? I’m not mad at them I’m mad at me! I’m always mad at me!

This is what I’m talking about when I say blue lives matter

[alienpride]

God, to be a high school transfer student in small-town Washington and have a mysterious, moody boy fall in love with you only to learn that he’s actually a vampire and that your blood is the most appealing thing he’s ever come across. That’s the dream, babey.

At the peak of my 13-year-oldness, I wrote a Hunger Games fic in which a former tribute (who won, obviously) had to watch her two kids being reaped the same year, and for extra drama, the organizer made her their mentor. The fic alternated between flashbacks to her own Games with the allies she made and saw die, and the fact that eventually she would have to choose which of her kids to save (or just straight up abandon both to the arena).

So far so good right?

Except the year was 2012. It was a songfic.

And the song I chose? The chorus to Nicky Minaj’s STARSHIPS.

"Starships" being the name her group of allies was given by the viewers. "Let’s do this one more time" was unironically the saddest line in the fic.

characters who crave affection but at the same time have no idea how to respond to actually receiving it due to the fact theyve rarely ever experienced it are my absolute favourite
