Reblog cos pride month even though it's almost the end

After some help in the Everlark discord server I have the names for a female Peeta and male Katniss

Female Peeta is Petra, which just sounds like the female counterpart

Male Katniss is Atlas, this was chosen because names starting with Kat all sound feminine

(PS normal is just canon, don't come after me I'm gay)

Normal : Peeta and Katniss

Genderbent : Petra and Atlas

Yuri : Petra and Katniss

Yaoi : Peeta and Atlas

Spoilers

Didn't she get tortured at the end of Sotr and had trouble speaking?

Correct me if I'm wrong (it's been about a year since I last watched the movies) but Wiress - in the books - speaks in full sentences unlike her movie counterpart and it's actually taken me by surprise?

Bc in my head, from watching the movies over and over again, I have one-word nutter in my mind but in the books, as I'm now re-reading, Wiress' issue is trailing sentences (ie, half-finishing a thought vocally).

And I kinda don't like that the movies seemed to dumb her down so much, for lack of better terms.

Cause at least this shows, *yes* she was tortured to oblivion, but she still maintaned both her intelligence and ability to have others fully comprehend her.

And maybe my disabled ass is reading too far into thinks but just ... idk. Idk.

I got a vision of Peeta coming over with some wild flowers to ask Katniss on a date (idk if they already shared feelings yet) and Maysilee hears this and comes out to try to interrogate him

glad we all agreed maysilee is the cool lesbian aunt

reading the hunger games for the first time in like ten years and it’s so funny cause katniss is basically thinking “peeta mellark is so sketchy omg what is he PLOTTING holy shit he’s gonna KILL ME”

meanwhile this is peeta mellark:

Reblog 👁👄👁

I'll post it here, but for anyone who doesn't have access to the hunger games books here is a link to the Google drive I set up to download the trilogy, Illustrated, TBOSS and SOTR. Each has en Epub file which just means it's an online book file, most devices should have a native book viewer, along with a PDF file which I'm sure most people are familiar with.

[ginger-bread-is-good]

Here's the pdfs

whoever was selling copies of peetas games which caused op to delete it off of ao3 your moms a hoe

[ginger-bread-is-good]

Funnily enough I had two out of the three and someone else in the Everlark discord server had the last one, we posted the pdf files in the fic rec channel

I wish I could freeze this moment. Right here, right now. And live in it forever

[ginger-bread-is-good]

Kind of funny that I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have even posted most of these images on the internet, and instead it's people finding images of him sent by his friends or family that then people have collected like rats to cheese

Yall Katniss wasn't lying

[ginger-bread-is-good]

They were locked so you need an account to view them now

just started reading Peeta’s Games by igsygrace on ao3 yesterday and I am HOOKED, but now it is seemingly deleted? Pls let this be a glitch bc I need it. Anyone have any intel on if it exists anywhere else?

[ginger-bread-is-good]

Oh ok gotcha, tbf the most she had to change herself was learning to love herself with Peeta

(MEDIA/CHARACTER CRITICISM, NOT HATE, PLEASE APPROACH OP GENTLY, THANKS ☹️🙏)

I have a few criticisms when it comes to straight/hetero couples in media, ESPECIALLY THE Female main character/FMC.

Women DO NOT NEED to be "more tough/less emotional/less soft" or be "more soft/emotional" TO HAVE A MAN.

If she's tough and badass and stays that way when she finds a man? HELL YEAH.

If she's soft, emotional, and gentle and stays that way when she finds a man? HELL YEAH.

Katniss Everdeen and Everlark, I'll say. I feel like her "eventual softness/melting for a man" is sometimes EXPECTED to her character a little too much, especially towards Peeta. We all need to acknowledge that she DOES NOT need to "soften up/be less tough/more emotional" TO HAVE A MAN.

Katniss can STILL keep her bravery, strength, and badass-ness while being with Peeta, and the fact that Peeta loved her DESPITE her NOT being "the soft/emotional" type is GREAT.

****

The opposite case can be said with Ginny Weasley and Hinny- BECAUSE LET'S BE FOR REAL- I LOVE THEM AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP.

But...let's say something here- the more how people talk about Ginny/Hinny is great by saying that "Ginny matured" to get Harry to describe the strengths of her character and relationship just confuses me even more- did she have to REPRESS her vulnerability to feel seen, loved, or to even just "get a man" ?? Girl I feel so sorry for 2nd year Ginny...

And also we talk about how Harry and Ginny are compatible together because Harry doesn't like emotional girls...but when I read the books I was sad at the thought that Ginny's "toughness" was seen as "more desirable/mature" when she had the potential to be both mature and be vulnerable/emotional.

Sure maybe it was just her nature to grow up strong and everything, but it feels...idk...it's like reflecting that emotional/vulnerable/"soft" girls are seen as "whiny/childish" cause real talk- I have been bullied for THAT EXACT reasons 😭🙏

While this is not a hate page NOR a comparison in Everlark and Hinny's dynamics, it's important for us to acknowledge that women DON'T NEED (to be expected) to change themselves (soften/toughen up) to have a man/partner.

Thank you, 🫡

I'm a little confused, are you saying Katniss turned soft with Peeta in the epilogue and that's out of character? She has been repeatedly shown to be soft with people she loves, specifically with Prim, she is also in a new world where she doesn't have to fear for her life every second and can thus relax

Replying to tags

I think it's really cute, I can't wait for butch Peeta

At the beginning of book 1!

[ginger-bread-is-good]

I'm sorry but this is what Peeta face looks like to me

Could you do a sexy Peeta fanart please? I need to see him shirtless and ABS!

Thanks! :)

No problem! So, I chose to sketch my beloved trainer!Peeta (you know, those “Catching Fire” missed scenes): it was a hot training day and Peeta’s T-shirt was soaked with sweat, so he went away to change his clothes. Aaaaand maybe Katniss couldn't help but take a look. Just a quick one. But Haymitch saw it all ;)

BONUS!

peeniss cuddles hhhhh

I love them so bad don't hmu

[ginger-bread-is-good]

It goes sicko mode

I like the idea of Katniss and Peeta getting a dog with a really big, low bark that they train to bark and growl at Plutarch.

It’s really the sweetest dog in the world.

It just hates Plutarch.
