No because I was so surprised at the amount of people who think Peeta would have pressured Katniss into having kids. Like did they not understand his character at all?? If anything the MOST he would have done is ask her over the years of she felt she was ready, and then backed off when she said no. It's more likely that Katniss could tell that he pined for children by watching him interact with the kids in the district, and others (possibly Haymitch) brought the topic up with her. But Peeta forcing her or guiltily her into it? Never!
HONESTLY!! HONESTLY!!
My personal headcannon is maybe a little controversial lmaoo but I actually think that Peeta wouldn’t be in a rush to have a baby post MJ anyway?
Just like how Katniss has her reservations about having kids because of the trauma that the games inflicted on every aspect of her life, (along with a very disjointed relationship with her own mother) Peeta has his own host of things to work through before I think he’d be ready enough to admit he wants to start a family.
Once he does tho I think he’d only bring it up the once, see she wasn’t on the same page, and then he’d leave it because hey!! he never even dreamed they’d get to where they are now!! Safe!! And in love!! He doesn’t need kids to be happy he just needs her!!
So in my head it’s Katniss who starts the first real conversation about having kids once she sees just how sweet and kind he is to the little ones coming into the bakery with their parents and even then I think he’d probably drive her insane just double and triple checking that she actually wants this?? And it’s real?? They can try for a baby??
This whole idea that he would pressure her is just Peeta slander!! plain and simple!! lmaoo

How did the Wonderbolts find out/react to Spitfire and Rainbow's relationship?
Ok I will focus on Fleetfoot here because otherwise it'll be too long. I ended up drawing a few panels but can't finish them right now, so I'm giving you all the sketches.
I hc Fleetfoot to know Spitfire the longest right after Soarin. They're close friends (Fleets considers Spitty her best friend even) and even though she's got a pretty intense rivalry with Rainbow, they also started a close and intense friendship after Rainbow joined.
Fleetfoot considers her friendship to both to be very special.
The scene in question happens during some holiday, general WB vacation, or just a weekend. It's one of the AUs where Spitty and Rainbow start dating and get closer while still in the WBs.
At some point they don't want to stay at home and want to show physical intimacy in public instead of acting like friends. But both being well known (especially Spitfire) immediately excludes all bigger and nearer towns. They can't just go out and hold hands and kiss without the press immediately writing about it and it ending in a huge scandal for the Wonderbolts.
They end up spending this specific date in a small village which hosts some minor festival that day. It's tiny, not that well known and is perfect for them. People don't recognize them outside of their uniforms and signature outfits.
It's pure happenstance that Fleetfoot is at the same no-name festival, visiting either an old friend or having to spend some time there due to some family issue.
She notices the familiar, colorful hair in the corner of her eye. The hair is a lot more vibrant and visible in the up-do Rainbow wears - a bit foolish of her to not wear a cap like Spitfire. But Rainbow being able to test, investigate and discover her own femininity in the safety of their private time is a big part of her. Plus, Spitfire also didn't think it would be a problem.
From the outfit, Fleetfoot wouldn't have guessed it's really Rainbow further down the street. But she recognizes her hair and laughter immediately. As for Spitfire, even with a hat and glasses, she'd recognize her a mile away as well.
It's a bizarre scene for Fleetfoot and seeing them kiss feels like a gut punch. At this point she's often tried to push Spitfire to go out and at least have some sexy flings, some fun nights with nameless girls instead of her just drowning in WB work. Spitfire always dismissed her, saying she can focus on romance later when she can actually date someone in private and not have the press nonstop on her heels.
Similarly Rainbow always denied liking someone and wanting to focus on being a great Wonderbolt member, being the newest addition. The most Fleetfoot got out of her, was doing silly "Smash or Pass" games the nights out after training or a big event.
Fleetfoot would never even have guessed that either would be interested in anyone, especially not each other. And seeing them in front of her seems is like a dream. She feels like she's seeing two completely different people in front of her and not her friends: Rainbow with her more delicate and feminine attire than usual, and Spitfire who's acting a lot more flirty, soft and seductive instead of her serious, rough or dudebro-joking attitude as captain.
Fleetfoot considered her relationship to both as special. She's not just "a friend" and that's the first reason why catching them in the act affects her this deeply.
The second reason is that she takes the Wonderbolts, their reputation, and especially the team bond just as serious as Spitfire. Seeing them involved romantically goes not only against the Wonderbolt code and rules, but would raise red flags even if it was allowed. There are a gazillion reasons why trouble could and - in Fleets' eyes - would follow. Can either separate work from relationship? Can they stay neutral? Will there be favoritism? Will Rainbow start to slack off? Will she distract Spitfire form her duties? Will there be silent grudges in the team? Will the team and performance suffer?
Fleets is usually pretty outgoing and wears her emotions on her sleeve. This time she swallows her anger and other complicated emotions and keeps quiet. The desire to just go up to and confront them is big - but she doesn't want this to end in a catastrophe for the team. Also she feels Spitfire could talk and explain herself and Rainbow out of it - probably playing it all down since Fleetfoot doesn't even have evidence.
So Fleetfoot waits for now, hoping to observe and collect evidence she can use against them once her judgement day comes. She's still convinced this is bad and will hurt everyone in the long run. But even with a very close eye on them, she doesn't notice anything.
Their performance doesn't falter. They're both as motivated to be peak Wonderbolts as ever. There are no noticeable longer or romantic touches. No special eye gazing. Rainbow gets no special treatment, quite the opposite - Fleets wonders if maybe she gets more criticism and work than the others (which is 100% the case. Spitfire does overcompensate a bit in her attempt to hide their relationship)
She doesn't see them meet up in a romantic way. She never sees a kiss or romantic gesture again. And even when she spies on them when they think they're all alone, they don't act differently to regular teammates.
There are days where Fleetfoot wonders if her mind way playing a trick on her and that she saw two other people that day. Only sometimes though.
And with time moving on and her not seeing any bad consequences, her emotions towards this secret mellow out and transform into a different, more empathetic nature.
There is more going on and some follow-up with Fleetfoot and Rainbow which also covers Rainbow's insecurity about feminine clothing - but it's a long post already. I might want to doodle something for it as well, when that time comes.

omg grian ban au … actually obsessed with the concept, plus scar wasn’t even online during when it happened and so he comes online and grians not?? there anymore. and mumbo maybe kind of knows that it’s Not Good. or pearl, would she have a concept that something bad is happening? obsessed with this idea and how it resolves
see i didn't know who was online and who wasn't but the fact that scar wasn't online makes this so much better. to just come back and find that grian's gone? and gem tries to reassure him that he's probably just sulking or off doing his own things, even though her words ring hollow even to herself, and scar looks at her like, "what things?"
grian never goes off to do his things. not unless he's actively preparing a server for them to play on, and that's always planned in advance.
i think scar doesn't really know what's wrong and what exactly grian's been running from this whole time, but he knows enough to flag this as Not Good. it scares him, actually, even if he isn't sure what the danger is. every minute that grian isn't showing up makes him feel more and more worried.
but nobody else really wants to panic. right? they don't want to think it could be anything like that.
(they actually all worry that scar is right, they just don't know what they can do about it—finding a player Out There is near impossible. he could be on a private server, on a protected one, on someone else's server, so many options they'd be blind to. just like hermitcraft is protected so that nobody can reach them when they're there.)
(anyway grian's in none of those places anyway <3)

@jaybutnotthebird i do hope to make content of her with a few other characters in the future, but i don’t think their reactions would be that interesting to draw tbh
most of the characters who’d even care would think “it was about damn time” or “you mean you weren’t already dating?” (i love me a good It’s Obvious To Everyone Except The Two People Involved trope gdskgds)
and “seemingly” is the right word, sometimes i find it almost disappointing i focus on so much fluff because my sona ends up seeming like a normal, nice girl but she is Not like that most of the time. rocky’s just who i’ve drawn her interact with so far and he brings out her softer side :’^)
plus, if she likes rocky of all people that should probably hint at some screws in her head being loose-

i'm Naut a gamer and they're changing it for the remake but honestly fate/extra's gameplay is really fitting for hakuno's character! it's all about finding out who your opponent is, understanding them and predicting their patterns based on that and countering it. i think this is why fate extra materials say she has "amazing detective skills and inference ability" – specifically about the how she figures out the heroic spirits' identities but i think this should fit too. though on the other hand, i imagine she'd be stuck if there's not enough information to analyse.
for my portrayal, i want this trait of hers to rlly play into part with how she interacts with others too >:3c she's a good judge of character (though very idealistic and prone to giving others a chance or the benefit of the doubt) but takes her time to get more information and get to know them. from that, she can get a better understanding of just what is needed by the situation/person and fulfill that.
i feel like you already see this in canon too! she's pretty good at figuring out people and how they'd react, and filling in the blanks from what she knows about them.
AND PLSS THEYRE SO FUNNY SVSNAVXJ
+ this dialogue option where you have to convince jinako to help you out and the correct option has hakuno appealing to jinako's,, tastes (🗿)
SO you'll usually see things like her going with the flow and doing things based on what the others want/need rather than herself, mostly because she doesn't know what she wants herself and is trying to figure out this way.
it's important because foxtail makes it a point that your choices is what shapes who you are. hakuno even admits to "going with the flow" and "following what everyone says" in and has her important turning point when she chooses her own path. good character development!! which i think can be best exemplified in this dialogue option from true route:
where the right answer isn't solely doing what hakuno thinks sakura wants, but also taking what hakuno herself thinks into consideration. it seems like a small thing but it's such good development for my girl /sobs
i alao wanna mention how hakuno highly introspective (though to the point of overthinking actually) and can easily understand parts of others that they don't explicitly show or tell or even admit to themselves. and how her best dynamics are the ones that also explore her character and taps into her emotions and feelings and how it relates to the other! like julius for example:
Just like Julius, the protagonist worked their way up from the bottom. So when they met the protagonist could immediately and clearly see through Julius, and this pissed Julius off to no end.
it's not just hakuno understands that julius is weak, but it's how hakuno understands what it's like to be weak. she understands what's it like to be deemed inferior and useless, and to try your hardest to prove yourself. not just an observation of the other person as a character and making informed guesses based on that, which is how i think hakuno navigates her usual interactions; but with a connection with them as a person that would also require hakuno to consider her own self and how she relates to the other person, which is great development for her!
so basically- not just understanding others intellectually, but truly understanding them from the heart,, 🥹
it's not to say that having something in common is required to have a bond though, ofc! the point is that it's necessary for hakuno consider herself too. as more of a character who interacts with the world and others rather than a self-insert who's just viewing things as an audience surrogate y'know </3
like this moment, where hakuno doesn't just pick up on bb acting different, but has her own thoughts and feelings about it (even if she doesn't really understand it):
