#&(Haymitch)

[winter-wise]

#it's like they stopped questioning it after they got past the first layer#which was that the 50th was rarely if ever re-aired#so it felt like watching the abridged cut was the subversive thing#but of course not. this was an official release. even more edited than the live broadcast @genderbinaryisforlosers these tags are so right

the thing i keep thinking about is how katniss, despite knowing the capitol is evil and despite seeing how they edited her games to tell a story, didn’t question haymitch’s much at all really when watching them. really drilling in the message that no one is immune to propaganda.

My interpretation of the Donner twins

Maysilee Donner

One half of the special interests duo but masks a lot better.

The other half is Wyatt. Both of them seem to not know what to talk about and fall back on their special interests (fashion and math).

Was basically an outsider in her district until the very end.

Again, along with Wyatt. Both of them were largely avoided by others and didn't find true acceptability until a few days before their deaths.

Was secretly anxious about having allies.

The fact she and Wyatt both stayed awake and listened to Louella and Haymitch discuss allies, proves that they both knew they weren't anyone's first pick. They probably felt like they'd die being rejected by others the same way they had lived. The fact that they both were the first to accept eachother is so

I feel that because of that she is rather attached and affectionate towards Wyatt.

I'll put a blanket or something over your head" says Maysilee, "Or wake you if you're really loud" "I forgot you'd be there,"says Wyatt. "I guess friends top of my list too."

PLEASE 🥲

Maysilee gives Wyatt the once-over. "You need more attitude, Wyatt." He tries to look tougher. "No, that's worse,"she says "Push your jaw out. Stand tall. Now stick out your chest". She musses his hair and pushes up his sleeves."You've got some muscle from the mines. Show it off".

And then completely ignores Haymitch.

They're so nerd with sleeper build bf x mean, coquette gf

RIP to the cuntiest duo that never was

Maysilee would rip your fashion choices to shreds and Wyatt would back up his girlfriend by proving it mathematically

Her first and last ally were both from the seam

Her first ally was Wyatt. Her last was Haymitch. She couldn't save Wyatt from Panache but she saved Haymitch by taking down Panache.

Also Bonus Wyatt !

Merilee Donner

She actually liked matching with Maysilee before the reaping

The way she went along with everything Maysilee said tells me that she idolized her sister and probably liked being thought of as two peas in a pod

Until Haymitch confused her for Maysilee during the funeral

Probably had a breakdown everytime she saw a mirror, thought it was Maysilee ......and realized it was just her

She'd hate seeing her parents look at her with red rimmed eyes and remember maysilee

Her and Maysilee appeared snooty and arrogant but they were strongly anti-classism

I think Maysilee's behavior speaks for itself. The fact that Madge was friends with Katniss (and interested in Gale) says that Madge has no discrimination against Seam people. Probably something her mother instilled in her.

She also sent her expensive morphling to the Everdeen's house after Gale's whipping

She helped paint her sister's last poster

Maysilee's pin was not just solid gold. It was a family heirloom, belonging to Merilee's grandmother and Madge's great grandmother.

Madge gave it to Katniss 100% with her mothers permission or even instruction. She helped paint her sister's last poster by handing the paintbrush to an old friend's doomed child.

She and Haymitch drowned themselves in their efforts to forget until it was time to paint the final poster and REMEMBER

like if u save

“Like all the Covey, music in her blood. But not like them, too. Less interested in pretty melodies, more in dangerous words. The kind that lead to rebel acts. The kind that got her arrested twice” 🪿🎻

Think the final THG book will be from Plutarch’s perspective.

All of the books have been centered around district twelve with the exception of snows limited 1st person. I don’t think Suzanne will write anything districts 1-11 cause they don’t play as much of a role as district 12 and the capitol.

But now that we know Plutarch has had his hand in the rebillion the entire time, I think it makes sense to use him as the connecting piece to drive the entire story to the finish line (Katniss).

Also still processing the epilogue, gonna need about 6-7 business weeks to be okay again after getting a singular sentence from katniss and peetas name mentioned :o.

Whitney is stunning.

However, I'm not gonna lie. While I loved Woody Harrelson in the role of Haymitch, I was never impressed with the decision made to depict Haymitch as a blue-eyed blond in the movies. As Woody wore a wig for the part, it would have been just as easy (and canonically correct) to give him a dark wig.

In casting SOTR, it appears they've chosen to continue to perpetuate this and that is disappointing to me.

Just my thoughts.

SOTR CAST ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

Joseph Zada has officially been cast as Haymitch Abernathy

Whitney Peak has officially been cast as Lenore Dove

First casting announcement for ‘THE HUNGER GAMES: SUNRISE ON THE REAPING’

[mellkellyismyhero]

beetee latier came up with one singular plan ever to defeat the hunger games and canonically tried to make it work TWICE despite the fact that it literally blew up in his face the first time.

this officially makes him the world’s most accurate fictional scientist because he HAS a favorite hypothesis that he IS going to make sure works even if it fucking kills him

People are complaining about Effie being older than Haymitch but I really could not care less about it. She's older than him and she's Capitol so she probably looks younger due to having a bunch of fancy Capitol beauty regimes. Haymitch is younger than her but he's had a rough life and doesn't look after himself so he looks older than he is. And they've known each other for 25 years and spent every one of those years sending one boy and one girl off to die. And they have depressed middle-aged hookups about it.
