I'll never agree with the short Peeta/tall Katniss takes because their canonical sizes are both narratively and thematically relevant.

Peeta's medium height and stocky build give him the size and strength to overpower most of his competitors in the arena, yet he rarely uses those traits to hurt people despite being in circumstances that encourage violence. Having the power and motive to be deadly and choosing to be kind instead is what defines Peeta's character.

Katniss's small size generally puts her at a disadvantage in the Games but she's still very deadly. I like that she's earned the skills (bow and arrow, hunting) and survivor mentality that make her a formidable tribute because she's not supposed to be this naturally gifted "chosen one" type figure. She's a regular teenage girl who has some special qualities but still needs a lot of help to win the Games.

Their size difference is also relevant in their relationship. Katniss has had to take care of herself since she was a young girl because of her mother's neglect, and as a result she doesn't trust other people to protect her. She's understandably mistrustful of Peeta's kindness when they become tributes, as one of them has to die for the other to live and he has the ability to kill her with his bare hands if he wants to (which we see later on when he's hijacked). Yet once they become allies, his larger size is no longer a potential threat but a source of comfort and protection; being held by him is the safest Katniss has felt with anyone since her parents held her as a little kid. And after they leave the arena, his strong arms are the only ones she trusts to guard her from her nightmares.

So even though I do think short guy-tall girl couples deserve more rep, it doesn't really make sense for Peeta and Katniss. And tbh viewing the gentle and compassionate boy as short and the tough hunter girl as tall is a little stereotypical lol.

Does this mean The Watcher and Loki have like poker Saturdays or something because I think it does

More terrifying but ultimately impossible predictions from Eddie in wake of most of his last predictions coming true.

I am so sorry about how bad the cropping on the third picture is I could probably fix it but that’s a morning Eli job not a 1:30 am Eli job.

3/3

This is the end of the comic.

Words under the cut

Picture one

Howard: So, when’s the wedding?

Eddie: Shut up Howie. One of those random predictions had to be false.

Howard: Eh, it was worth a shot.

Picture two (I put too many words here)

Howard: Too bad we’ll both die alone now. Why didn’t you predict I’d marry some cute military man huh? I thought I was your favorite older brother.

Eddie: Honestly I’m surprised even one of those came true, let alone three. Maybe I should’ve come up with more unbelievable shit.

Picture three (I’d like to write a formal apology to my phone at this time)

Eddie: Like Paul being cloned by the sketchy company he works for, or Jerry raising a secret kid in the forest where the kid grows far too fast and far too strong to be normal, or another family member we’ve totally forgotten about being forgotten because of strange inter-dimensional eldrich god magic dullshit.

Picture four

Eddie: at least those wouldn’t’ve had any potential of coming true.

Howard: Jerry with a mini me? Terrifying.

Now THIS is the kind of professor I would go to class for.

GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKER London by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The great spotted woodpecker is a striking black-and-white bird with a very distinctive bouncing flight. Adults have a deep red patch under the tail and males have a very clear sugar-lump-sized red patch on the back of the neck. It spends most of its time clinging to tree trunks and branches..Well a nice surprise as i walked back and could see 2 large birds in the distance and got treat the light was not that good so only got a few shots..they were in a small tree so was easy to spot them..

need me a ghosts (kind of swap?) au where the Captain was a birdwatcher who fell out of a tree and Pat was a pilot (because of topgun) but still managed to crash into the same tree as in canon.

Maybe I’m just being crazy, but you know, Caramel Arrow kind of does look like she could be the kid of Dark Cacao and Second Watcher

I mean, the browns and general eye colors more resemble Second Watcher, but the black in her hair and like the vibrancy of her browns could be attributed to Dark Cacao. Plus she has white eye lines (what are they called?) like Dark Cacao

I’d say the biggest hole is the fact that Caramel Arrow has a noticeably lighter skin tone than either of them, but like…other than that I’d say it’s not a ludicrous idea

Or again, maybe I’m just being crazy. This isn’t like, speculation for the game, it’s just me saying that she kind of looks it to me
