something that stood out to me while reading sotr is just how unreliable of a narrator haymitch is, and specifically in how he views himself. he mentions how he isnt smart repeatedly, and i almost accepted that as a character trait because it’s so often said, but his actions show otherwise. he knows the repercussions of carrying lou lou while in the arena, he just doesnt care. he isnt stupid, he’s brave. “a hero is a person who fights for liberty instead of settling for comfort.”
watching What If…? and why do they kill tony every other episode? is it actually always his fate to die?
Wait, which series does Miles Morales first appear in? All these different series are so confusing
tony: yeah and i made peter EDITH so that—
pepper: who?
tony, craning his head to the invisible camera: what has he done.
(miles away, a shiver goes down peter’s spine)
i’m so appreciative to suzanne for reframing the rebellion from the original trilogy as a “they saw their moment and took it” type situation and showing us that they’ve been trying, over and over, with so many failed attempts, to break the arena and incite a rebellion for decades. in this current political climate never giving up hope is so essential. haymitch wasn’t the first nor the last, and they kept going even when it seemed completely futile, and that’s what counts, and what ultimately saves them all.
that's is so cute???????
He's like: PETER OMG I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO ME AGAIN! EVER!
I can honestly relate, HE IS PERFECT

+ lenore dove’s geese only tolerating haymitch for food and buttercup only tolerating katniss for food !!!!
haymitch raising geese to feel closer to lenore dove and katniss taking care of buttercup to feel closer to prim. the geese not trusting haymitch when lenore was still alive and buttercup disliking katniss when prim was still alive. the parallels are paralleling
Katniss’s dad bringing baby Katniss to the hob so he can show her off is the sweetest thing ever and something I always knew was canon. That man LOVED his daughters.
i was just thinking about how it wouldnt be terribly implausible for beetee’s unborn child to have died in finnick’s games. sotr took place during the 50th games, which means by the 65th games, the kid wouldve been 14 or 15. you could say “oh, well, they wouldve been reaped as soon as they turned 12” but like, not really. it would be much more devastating for beetee to have to wait to see if his baby is going to be reaped just like their older brother. beetee would expect it at 12 and 18 since those are the first and last years theyd be eligible, but 14/15 would be more unexpected (though im not saying beetee wouldnt expect it, just less so). imagine beetee seeing this 14-year-old finnick come home after beetee’s own died (at the hands of finnick? maybe, but i think it’s more likely to be otherwise based on beetee’s and finnick’s dynamic) and seeing his own child in a broken boy’s face.
just a thought
