#also katniss and finnick is such an interesting dynamic bc despite seeing her as a kid he also puts her on this pedestal

i personally like sam claflin’s take on finnick’s family history (there’s an interview iirc he gave after catching fire where he talks a little on it) that he lost his parents when he was young because they were part of some riots in the district during the 51-65th games & that’s what makes him all the more willing to join the rebellion later (& explains his relationship with mags). it’s a means of being close to them and it’s a chance to make them proud & katniss is proof of that being possible to finnick for the first time in a long time
