Yes omg!!! The people who gush about how Katniss is such a tough, 'always practical & in control' type, badass in the books who has never had a "girlish" thought in her life just makes me think 'what series did you read?' because book Katniss is nothing like that.
i don’t understand how people can genuinely think that katniss “this would have happened anyway” everdeen settled in her relationship with peeta “my dandelion in the spring” mellark
#everlark#people have had ideas about how katniss should be Not Like Other Girls#that when she is like...actually i am like other girls#people go into a rage#because god forbid a girl be able to hunt her own dinner AND have a hot husband who baked bread to go along with it#like she was waxing poetic about bread boy's arms & eyelashes & sparking blond curls#she liked cuddling & holding he's hand#she was HUNGRY on that beach#and sometimes needed to be litrually sedated because she loves that boy so much#so please stop describing her like some macho robot who was only focussed on war/revolution#when she didn't want to even be the mockingjay#all the adults around her#+ gale#just manipulated/forced/guilt tripped her into it#(like don't get me wrong i understand why they wanted to end snow's regime but still she was a traumatised teen)#and she spends the majority of the series (not just mockingjay) worried about peeta & trying to keep him alive & safe#her whole plan in cf was litrually to kill everyone + herself so that peeta could be the winner#and she was legitimately annoyed that other tributes kept protecting peeta because it made it harder for her to dislike them lmfao#also katniss litrually dreamed about a world were peeta's children could be safe & happy#and lastly not only did she keep the pearl he gave her in cf#but she hides it to keep it safe as if it's peeta's life#and kisses it for comfort while imaging it's peeta#katniss settled?#katniss had no interest in romance?#everlark was rushed?#everlark was forced?#everlark came out of nowhere?#everlark dosn't make sense?#the epilogue was a hetronormative cookie cutter happy ending & was tottally out of place from the rest of the series?#no you just either have bad taste in men or no media literacy or your stuck in that 'romance = weak' ideology
