plotted with @redhoneyhq !

THE LAST HE REALLY REMEMBERS is the weight of both the beloved star-crossed lovers on top of him while the paralyzing fog crept ever closer, pouring out in ugly billows that glare against the pitch black of the forest. he had groaned for those dipshits to get off of him so he and the hope of revolution could at least die without them crushing him, and that was when consciousness had begun to flicker. he is aware that somehow they escaped the death fog ( yay ) and he remembers either crawling or being dragged across cool sand. maybe he really is dead and he’s waking up lying on the coarse blanket of his home, and the gentle sigh of the tide weakly thrusting onto the shore further lulls him into this fantasy. maybe he will see mags here since she’s dead too. she’s dead.

mags , I can’t do it.

I can’t do it.

I CAN’T.

the invulnerable finnick odair finally met his match, huh? and HE couldn’t and now she’s D E A D.

cool, salty waves are caressing below his neck, and though his skin stings angrily, he understands the water works to soothe what damage the fog caused. it’s like anvils are sewn to his eyes when he lifts them open, and immediately the sky punctured with false stars begins to sway. she’s blurry, but he sees katniss looking down at him, and beneath the back of his neck he feels the familiar slant of crossed legs beneath him. her hands are smoothing back sweaty waves of bronze, almost tenderly, the way annie does when he has a migraine.

“ katniss…? ” voice is corroded into a pained whisper. it doesn’t sound like his own. he winces, words like sandpaper against his throat, and instead brilliant hues gaze up at katniss, seeking answers to questions he has not even thought of.

#i know in the book he couldnt like speak at all but im taking some liberties or this would be a boring thread sjhlkasdlkja #forgive fin for calling katniss a dipshit hes having a hard day #or week #or life #hes honestly relieved she didnt leave him for dead because he was thinking theres like a 50% chance that might happen #less likely with peeta there but he and katniss did point weapons at each other's throats like earlier that day kfsdjlkJLKJA #redhoneyhq #i dont have a verse for In the quell???#v: oh fuck it's the quarter quell;; (tbt)#want a sugar queuebe?;;
