What is honor compared to a woman’s love? What is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your arms… or the memory of a brother’s smile? Wind and words. Wind and words. We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.

Jon Snow - and family that haunts him, because sometimes ghosts make for the best love stories.

“If only one of us can be a parent, anyone can see it should be Peeta. As I drift off, I try to imagine that world… A place like the meadow in the song I sang... Where Peeta’s child could be safe.”

Catching Fire, page 354

Katniss Everdeen : You can't tune out again. Katniss' Mother : I won't... Katniss Everdeen : No. You can't. Not like when Dad died. I won't be there anymore, and you're all she has. No matter what you FEEL, you have to BE there for her. Do you understand? Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't... Don't...

(I know I’ve posted about this before, but here I am on this fine day feeling feelings about it again, so enjoy some completely unsolicited rambling).

Peeta Mellark is not trying to trap Katniss Everdeen into a relationship with him in the first Games.

The Hunger Games do not have multiple victors. That was never an option before the rule change. He has no long game. He doesn’t even consider himself a contender in the Games, but if he has to die, as I think he believes he must, it is going to be done sacrificing himself for Katniss, helping her go home. If she hadn’t found him by the river, he’s gone. He fights Cato to help her escape, and he dies a martyred lover. Maybe he buys himself some time with his lies too, but not much, and even if it comes down to the two of them, there’s no way he’s killing her. (I’m not even sure she could kill him, cave bonding or no).

From the point when she does save him, I don’t know that I can blame a traumatized sixteen year old boy for thinking the girl who risked her life for him, and then tried to commit joint suicide with him, might care about him somewhat. I don’t think I can blame him for being surprised and hurt when she tells him she doesn’t know how much of that was real.

He didn’t go into the Games with a manipulative plan to make her his girlfriend and then become a pushy ex when she dumped him. Peeta and the Capitol are not in sexist cahoots to take advantage of Katniss. Katniss is not the only victim of the system here, nor is the entirety of their relationship (as we know) fake. Peeta’s reaction to her reveal at the end of The Hunger Games and into Catching Fire is probably a more mature reaction than the majority of people would have had (and he initiates the apology, making certain she understands that he does not want to hold her to something she didn’t mean). Something he thought he understood, a source of love and safety in the most horrifying experience of his life, was just pulled out from under him like a rug. I would be upset too.

Incorrect Quotes<3

You know what I love and just applaud Rachel zegler for doing so well? Making Lucy gray’s mannerisms and tone slightly different whenever she’s performing for the cameras e.g the scene at the zoo when she was being asked questions

More than that I love that in every scene with Coriolanus she doesn’t do that tone or mannerisms EXCEPT THE LAST SCENE SHE HAS WITH HIM BEFORE SHE DISAPPEARS

Like everything about it from the tone of voice to the way that she said “I’m not made out of sugar” to the way that she smiled was just so eerily similar to the way that she acts when she is preforming for an audience

Like I cant be the only one who sees how different she acts

Look at that! that’s a woman PREFORMING if I ever saw one

But what’s so important is that SHE IS preforming, she’s made her choice, she knows she has to leave but she also knows that she is talking to someone who is extremely volatile and has shown that he can kill so she has to bide her time and play it perfectly to disappear like she needed to

So she preforms to stay alive, just like she did in the games, Lucy gray’s last performance was actually this conversation- not any song.
