I know everyone loves talking about Katniss and Peeta being affectionate in everyday life and mirroring her parents, but I also go crazy about them being affectionate and Peeta realizing he has a safe home filled with love unlike his parents. I just imagine him remembering his parents just tensely being with each other and contrasting that with him and Katniss who are always touching in some way and greet each other with kisses and hugs.

no because throughout the first two books he’s so physically affectionate to her (even though i’d assume this isn’t learned behaviour from his home) can you IMAGINE what it’s like when they’re safe and living together and in an established relationship? when he realises that she enjoys and takes comfort from his affections??

#anon you sent this ask TIME ago so i hope you’re still around #i’ve been having some thoughts recently about peeta healing from his childhood pain which i think a lot of the time is overlooked #more so because of the hijacking and that kind of takes over as. yknow. trauma numero uno. #and i also had an idea for a story like this but i’ve never written before so that will probably never come to be #even though the urge is there #but 1000 times yes to them having a home filled with love and affection #everlark headcanons #asks #you know he kisses her goodbye every time they have to part and greets her again with a kiss too.
