I actually read a fanfiction like this before, not Everlark (THG) but Bellarke (the 100). It was soooo good!

Accidentally opened Instagram and saw this

Obviously Eat the Rich and We’re Returning to Medieval Europe now I Guess? but also heyyy new fan fiction forced proximity excuses just dropped.

The first real conversation Katniss has with Peeta is when he tells her that he wants to die as himself, that he doesn't want the games to change him into something he's not, and that he wants to keep his identity and prove he's more than just a piece in their games because that's the only thing he has left to care about.

The first time we see Lucy Gray she sings a song that basically says that nothing they could take from her was worth keeping. "Can't take my past. Can't take my history... You can't take my charm. You can't take my health."

The capitol has taken everything from them both, but at the same time, they could never take away who they are.

They are both likeable charismatic and funny, with the kindest hearts, and incredibly loyal to the people they care about.

At the same time, everything they do before the games, and during is calculated. Lucy Gray singing a love song and winning the hearts of the capitol. Peeta confesses he's in love with his district partner, therefore cementing her identity as desirable. Both of them know how to sway people with words, how to charm people, and how to manipulate crowds. Neither of them has any problem doing so to keep themselves, and the people they love safe.

Lucy Gray's song The Old Therebefore, about learning how to love and live her life to the fullest before death, a final and calculated stroke in a last-ditch effort to save herself from the arena. This evokes enough emotion in the watchers to get them to rise to their feet and plead for her life alongside Snow.

Snow, watching the 74th and preparing for the 75th Hunger Games sees Lucy Gray in Katniss. A young girl, from the 12th district. Unafraid at the reaping. Selling a false love story, manipulating a boy who loves her in order to get out and supporting the revolution with the mockingjay as her symbol.

He threatens her family to get her to sell that she and Peeta are in love, to prevent the revolution, because obviously, she's pretending. He's had experience with a girl just like her before. He has no doubt that she has the acting ability to sell this story because clearly, she manipulated the first Hunger Games in her favor, the same way Lucy Gray manipulated him.

Watching the interviews for the 75th Hunger Games he realizes-

Katniss is just an impulsive girl, in a Mockingjay dress she didn't know about, made by someone who supports the revolution.

Peeta is a boy who has the ability to move people with just his words. He made Katniss desirable, he was the one who sold the love story, and he was the one to make their romance seem real. Katniss only started the revolution because she would rather risk dying with him than live without him. A concept President Snow was completely unfamiliar with. And it is with all these realizations crashing around him Peeta drops the baby bomb. He knows the baby's not real, and so does Snow. But it evokes enough emotion in the watchers to get them to rise to their feet and plead for the lives of the tributes.

Is it Lucy Gray or Peeta?

By the time Snow realizes he's made a mistake, it's too late.

Peeta is still charming and manipulating the capitol. Katniss is in love.

He goes up against a kindhearted boy expecting to beat Sejanus again, only to find out that it's Lucy Gray he's fighting; knowing he will never be able to escape their ghosts.

By all accounts you should not, I repeat YOU SHOULD NOT put your medicine in a kitchen cabinet nor a bathroom cabinet. Drugs should be kept in a dry place and not subject to temperature changes. Kitchens and bathrooms are the two rooms with more humidity and temperature fluctuations in a house. DON’T DO THIS!

recently saw ppl discuss whether they put their medicines in a kitchen cabinet or a bathroom cabinet and i was shocked by the fact that many ppl said kitchen cabinet. so now i need you to reblog this and say where you keep yours

thinking about Messianic imagery at the end of Mockingjay thinking about how Mary Magdalene mistakes Jesus for a gardener when she sees him at the tomb thinking about how she’s not exactly wrong because Genesis implies the vocation of humanity at its purest and best is to be gardeners thinking about how when Katniss stumbles out of her nightmare world she stumbles upon Peeta having been restored to (as much as he can be) himself and how he’s gardening thinking about how she’s able to find her sense of purpose for the first time in a long time after seeing him and I’m not saying that’s intentional but what I am saying is that I love it

for the record she gives him water first, and she drinks after him.

most underrated everlark moments of all time: Peeta buttoning Katniss in his jacket on the rooftop when they BARELY know each other, and Katniss giving Peeta water to drink from her hands after they survived the arena like Suzanne just puts these things in there and is like “yeah. what of it?” as if I’m not clawing the wallpaper

@little-lynx will you be mad if I told you I actually started this fic before you gave me the headsup?

Will you be even “madder” (is that a word?) if I told you I haven’t updated since??

(I do have the storyline in my head, just a lot going on right now in real life!)

Fic idea but too lazy to write it

Katniss is a Victor, and Snow tries to keep her in line

she does something to piss him off

he sends her a threat, something like a letter saying “he’ll kill the man she loves”, meaning Gale

Katniss bolts out the door, kidnaps Peeta ( not a Victor, just a happy little baker, that makes bread deliveries to victors village) and hides him by the lake, because Snow has the wrong man (Gale) and she’s scared he might get the right one (Peeta).

(yes, I was totally rewatching The Arrow, and the iconic scene where Oliver tells Felicity “He has the wrong woman”. To this day that was THE BEST romantic plot twist ever.)

[periwinckles]

Isn’t it obvious?? She would do it to make Panem safe again, so “Peeta’s babies could play in the meadow.” #winkwink

so… if peeta wasn’t captured and he went to thirteen right away with katniss and co… what do you guys think would be the motivate for her to become the mockingjay then?

please answer this, it ain’t rhetorical 😭

[periwinckles]

Hii!! Hope you are doing good!! I really miss you and your Letters from Panem Universe

Hello!!!

I know I haven’t been around much, but there’s so much going on with my life, that I had to step down for a bit…

I am well, just a little disappointed that I had to put my new everlark story “he’s a keeper” on hold.

As for “Letters from New Panem” I sometimes get the urge to go back to it. I’m thinking about doing the sequel (“the train back to twelve”) from Katniss and Peeta’a POV.

thanks for asking!

one thing about me is that if a friend of mine came to me frantically explaining that they were trapped in a time loop i would believe it no questions asked i've been waiting to be the quirky supporting character in a time loop plot my whole life i will do whatever to break that curse up to and including falling in love

HUG, a, (hʌɡ), noun

“A hug is one of the most common signs of love and affection. A hug is a handshake from the heart. A hug is worth a thousand words. A hug is a smile with arms, a laugh with a stronger grip. A hug is two hearts wrapped in arms.”
