Unpopular opinion and I'm fully prepared for the consequences.
... (please be nice, I will cry)
As a widow myself, I truly, genuinely want to believe that Annie finds love again.
Will it be the same love? No. Will it happen anytime soon? No.
But I have to believe that she finds companionship, partnership, love, and romance in her life.
But I have this idea of her meeting someone new. Someone who is kind, gentle, and patient. Someone who can laugh her back into the present. Someone who opens their hearts to her and her son.
(maybe even her son's pediatrician, that could be how they meet. she sees someone so gentle to her son and it warms her heart to see her son smile so brightly and laugh so musically. it reminds her of another smile and another laugh.)
I dunno, my late partner's birthday is coming up in a few weeks so I'm just in my feels about this. I've met this wonderful person who makes me feel joy in a way I never thought I would again - and I just want the same for Annie, who has my whole heart.

No one ever mentions how Gale saw it as a competition. Gale was competing with Peeta. Peeta was learning to live with Gale. Cause he can’t live with Katniss without Gale. And to Gale. Up until the the quarter quell he had the upper hand. Everything they had was fake. Katniss didn’t want it. Peeta won’t better her life like he would. He knows her better. On a different level then Peeta. The things they bond with Peeta can’t. Their dads dying, Seam life, making ends meet, the struggle of raising children from a young age, not having choices. That’s something that Peeta doesn’t get. But what he don’t get is Katniss isn’t catnip no more. She has different problems. Different struggles he don’t get. That Peeta does. The nightmares, the horrors, the death of rue. Peeta wasn’t there but he gets it. The struggle to keep yourself moving. A whole other type of survival. And Peeta didn’t think about that stuff. He didn’t compare that stuff when Gale got whipped. When Gale got whipped he stood up cause that was Katniss’s best friend. Shit it could’ve been her lover. But he still did it. Because he never second guess when he was with her. When it came to her. He never put himself first. And that almost led to their destruction.

Who was the most lucky and un-lucky person from The Hunger Games trilogy?
Why do you pick them? Please give reasons.
You can interpret the luck and un-luck thing however you want.
Thank you :)
@curiousnonny
Honestly, is anyone really lucky? Definitely not anyone reaped- Peeta, Prim, Haymitch, Lucy Gray, any other victors or tributes- and Katniss, because it was her sister that was reaped and come on now.
Definitely not anyone who died- Cinna, Sejanus- or anyone who had both, mainly Finnick and almost Peeta.
Nobody from District 13, given the infertility illness and the fact their whole place was bombed and stuff.
See I may say Gale, but honestly he didn’t get the girl (L) and he was born in the districts, which just isn’t too good.
So, we need someone from the capitol, who hasn’t died, who also came out on the winning side of the war, and who hasn’t had anyone close to them die.
In my opinion, in this crazy world where everyone has unlucky things happen to them, in the grand scheme of things, Cressida is the luckiest.
Let’s look at the facts, Cressida was born and raised in the Capitol, meaning she grew up with a life of luxury or at least a better life than anyone in the districts. She was an up and coming film director, and got to keep her line of work and probably her passion despite switching sides in the war.
She didn’t grow up in District 13 and wasn’t affected by the infertility illness, yet enjoys the benefits of it without experiencing the hardships of the districts who take refuge there.
Anything that makes her worse off than other capitol citizens is her own choice so not luck based, and she’s still quite happy in d13. She also chose the winning side, so she’s able to live after the war and know that she helped contribute to it.
Now a little disclaimer I don’t know everything about her backstory, so if I have gotten details wrong please feel free to point them out!!
Honestly, I would’ve said Sejanus is the luckiest person if he hadn’t gone and died. Getting Coriolanus as a confidant was SUPER unlucky of him.
But also…he was able to move to the freaking capitol, he had a good career lined up for him, and any troubles he got in could be quickly covered up by money. Of course that doesn’t really count as luck then, but still. Plus he got the district 2 boy, and even if that’s orchestrated by his father, he’s still lucky to have him (in general, he’s unlucky that it happens to be Marcus). He also gets saved from the freaking hunger games arena !! With a few scratches!!
It’s honestly a wonder he was able to die, because up until that point he was pretty lucky.
Now…the unluckiest. Luckily for us we have a list to go off of!
My biggest ideas for unluckiest are Finnick, Peeta, Haymitch, Annie, and Prim. For others who have died, there’s a certain point I consider them lucky for doing so.
For example, any of the tributes from the 74th or 75th hunger games. They were lowkey lucky to die before having suffered so much more, and other characters have had more things happen to them that are unlucky because they lived. So the other characters I just mentioned are more unlucky if that makes sense.
And for Cinna, while dying was unlucky, that was pretty much the only unlucky thing that happened to him and it wasn’t even all luck based. He chose to make Katniss a mockingjay and knew the consequences.
However, with Finnick, he had a bunch of unlucky things happen to him before he died (his own choice by the way, so I don’t really consider it lucky/unlucky). He was reaped at 14. He was, however, lucky to get the trident.
Then he was reaped AGAIN for the 75th games, so even if all of those were staged by the capitol I still consider it unlucky.
Then, he was saved! Yay, lucky, but the woman he loves wasn’t and he goes a bit insane. Not very lucky. But, hey, at least she wasn’t hijacked. Of course he then dies before ever meeting his son, but hey at least he had a happy wedding first.
So, while he was definitely unlucky, he had a few lucky things happen to him.
I also considered Annie, because I think this is the opposite for her. She was lucky, but had many many many unlucky things happen to her.
She watched her district partner get beheaded- unlucky, but at least she survived the flooding after. It’s lucky she knew how to swim!
Then, she met Finnick. Very lucky!
Then, she was reaped. Unlucky, but good thing Mags volunteered for her. Lucky.
Then, she was taken by the capitol. Unlucky. But she reunited with Finnick, and married him. Lucky.
Then…she had a baby with him. Lucky. Then he died. Unlucky. But at least she has a support system. Lucky.
So while she was definitely unlucky, I’d say she had enough luck to balance it all out.
Before moving on to Prim & Peeta & Haymitch, let me talk about Katniss and why she isn’t the luckiest or the unluckiest.
She wasn’t reaped- her sister was, and she was the one who made the choice to go to the games. Yes yes very said but not inherently unlucky for HER.
Then, she got fairly lucky during the hunger games, too. The tracker jackets nest. Meeting Rue. Even though she had that little run in with the fireballs, she then got the ointment. She was also lucky that Peeta confessed he liked her.
She was also chosen for d13, and while she did go a bit insane too that Peeta wasn’t, and then met him hijacked, Peeta is definitely still unluckier. It’s lucky she at least still had Gale there (not very lucky for me though).
Now, Prim.
She had one freaking slip. Out of thousands. That was chosen for the hunger games.
VERY, VERY UNLUCKY!!
She had Katniss as an older sister though, and never had to work to provide, because Katniss provided for her. Lucky.
Then, she was saved by Gale during the bombing of district 12. Yay. Lucky.
In d13, she just barely made it into the bunker, WITH her cat. So also lucky.
Do you know what’s really unlucky though? Becoming a young medical person and then being blown up. The Everdeen family is not good around bombs fr. It was very unlucky she was allowed to go to war at all, and it was very unlucky she then DIED because of it. I count her dying as unlucky in the same way I do Finnick. They both still had so much to live for.
While Rue was also unlucky, due to all of her slips that were probably in the reaping bowl, it was less unlucky. She was also lucky to have met Katniss, and was lucky to die before the capitol tried to do things with her after. It wasn’t exactly lucky she died though, let me clarify, just not UNLUCKY.
So, I stand my ground Prim was fairly unlucky.
Now…my two biggest competitors for unluckiest…Haymitch and Peeta!
Haymitch. He was not only reaped, but he was reaped in a Quater Quell!! C’mon now. Then, he was lucky to find that little glitch, but it cost him his family and his girlfriend. The fact he refused to be sold also didn’t help, but I don’t see that as much as a luck thing but still he’s unlucky about the family and girlfriend thing.
Then, he gets two victors! Katniss and Peeta! Two in one. Lucky. Then Peeta is hijacked. Unlucky. And then he’s also reaped again. Oof.
It’s mainly the whole 50th games things. Like damn. That’s just fairly unlucky.
Now, a lot of people will probably disagree with who I think is the unluckiest. Feel free to, and debate with me but not argue in the reblogs and replies! I love that /srs!
But…Peeta. Even though everything turned out alright.
First off, getting reaped. Yikes. Always unlucky.
Then, getting stabbed and almost bleeding out and then that wound getting infected. Unlucky, but at least he has his crush, Katniss, so that’s lucky.
Yay, he’s out, and on tour. Oops. His speech kills a man. I count that as unlucky, because while he chose to say the stuff it was just unlucky the old man was there to hear it and interpret it in a rebellious way that got him killed.
Oh, and also his crush doesn’t like him back, even though he thought she did. How unlucky.
Ok, here’s a second games. He isn’t reaped. How lucky. But then he gets in there anyways (his choice so doesn’t count, remember), and then he isn’t saved by d13!! VERY VERY UNLUCKY BECAUSE HES THEN KIDNAPPED, TORTURED, AND LITERALLY HAS HIS BRAIN REARRANGED TO KILL THE WOMAN HE LOVES??
VERY! VERY! UNLUCKY!
Then he’s rescued! Yay, lucky, even though the capitol let him get rescued. Yay he’s back, and now that he’s rehabilitated some, he’s sent back out to war to possibly kill Katniss. How unlucky.
And yes, he does end up with Katniss in the end after years of work and therapy. Lucky. But as a whole, if almost anything could’ve gone unlucky for him it did.
So, I think that Cressida was the luckiest, with Sejanus as a fairly close second, and that Peeta was the unluckiest, with mostly Haymitch but also Finnick and Annie to be honorably mentioned.
Let me also give a shout-out to Coriolanus and Lucy Gray, because while I don’t think they’re either the unluckiest or luckiest they’re still worth mentioning.
Coriolanus was born into wealth, lucky, but then got super poor, unlucky. He was a mentor, lucky, but got the d12 girl, unlucky, but it turned out to be Lucy Gray, lucky.
Then he got expelled, unlucky, and sent to d12, lucky because he gets to see Lucy Gray again. I’m not going to count the rebel stuff as either, because it was mostly his choice to get so involved although it could be argued he didn’t HAVE a choice, so generally unlucky for that and the whole thing with Sejanus combined because that was also his choice.
Let’s also mention he became President and got an internship and while that was achieved by choice it still requires SOME luck that he wasn’t caught, yk, killing people.
Generally lucky I’d say but still unlucky.
Then Lucy Gray is the opposite, unlucky but still lucky. She has the whole thing with Billy Taupe, unlucky but lowkey a choice, and then gets reaped, which even if it was planned is still unlucky. But she wins, lucky, and meets Coriolanus which starts out as lucky but turns unlucky.
So nothing too out of the ordinary honestly I just thought that, like Katniss, they were worth mentioned about why I didn’t choose them.
So yeah! Thanks for the question, @curiousnonny , and as always feel free to debate not argue in the reblogs and replies!

~ Hunger Games ~ Finnick Odair X F!Reader
Synopsis : Être la fille de Snow n'est pas toujours facile. En fait, ça ne l'est jamais. Encore plus lorsque le chéri du Capitol vous plaît. Et si ce n’était que ça…
Point de vue Reader :
Je suis allongée de tout mon long sur mon lit king size, bouquinant un vieux livre d’histoire qui raconte la chute de l’ancienne politique. Mais je ne reste pas tranquille bien longtemps, l’un des serviteurs de mon père venant toquer à la porte de ma chambre.
-Entrez !
Le serviteur entre après mon ordre. Il se courbe en avant alors que je me redresse en une position assise.
-Jameson, je vous ai déjà dit que vous n’aviez pas à vous courber devant moi sans la présence de mon père. Redressez vous.
-Excusez moi mademoiselle. Votre père vous demande dans son bureau.
-N’est-il pas en réunion avec les vainqueurs du 4 ?
-Il demande votre présence. Je n’ai pas plus d'informations.
Je me lève de mon lit et mets mes chaussures à talons transparents, ajustant ma robe courte faites de grandes plumes synthétiques blanches.
-Comment suis-je, Jameson ? Et sois honnête.
-Magnifique, comme à votre habitude. Mais si je peux me permettre…
Il entre complètement dans ma chambre et se dirige vers mes bijoux. Je l’observe faire, lui souriant gentiment. Il récupère un joli collier d’épaule fait de diamant sublime. Ceci est un cadeau de Cina et César pour mon 19ème anniversaire. Il m’aide à le mettre avant de reculer de deux grands pas.
-Très bien, allons-y maintenant ou mon père risque de s’impatienter.
-Je suis convaincu qu’il l’est déjà.
Je ricane avant de mettre une main devant ma bouche. Je me tourne vers Jameson, c’est un vieux monsieur bien conservé qui est au service de mon père depuis des années maintenant. Il m’a vu grandir et a essuyé d’un revers de main tous mes chagrins. Il me connait surement mieux que mon père.
-Jameson, nous ne mettons pas dans l’embarras. Les murs ont des oreilles vous savez.
-Bien sûr, mademoiselle.
Nous marchons à la hâte jusqu’au bureau de mon père, parlant tranquillement de plusieurs sujets sans importance avant de discuter des futurs Hunger Games, ce jeu ne va pas tarder à faire son grand retour.
-Quel district allez-vous parrainés cette année ?
-Je ne sais pas encore. J’aimerai aller à la rencontre des districts un par un, être en contact avec eux pour savoir quoi mettre en place pour les aider.
-Votre demande sera refusée, mademoiselle. Les habitants de ces districts essaieront sans aucun doute de vous tuer pour se venger du président.
-Au risque de se faire incendier par mon père ? Je ne les crois pas aussi stupide, Jameson.
-Je ne veux que votre sécurité.
-Et mon père fera toujours en sorte que je le sois. Ne vous en faites pas, faites moi confiance.
Après la fin de ma phrase nous entrons sans même avoir toqué dans le bureau. Je marche jusqu’à mon père qui est assis face aux vainqueurs du district 4. Je lui embrasse la joue tendrement en m’excusant de l’attente.
-Tu es très jolie aujourd’hui. Me complimente-t-il.
-Merci, papa. Jameson m’a aidé à choisir.
Il regarde le serviteur qui a fermé les portes et reste planté devant elle, droit comme un piqué. Il lui adresse un mouvement de tête avant de me présenter d’un mouvement de main les vainqueurs.
-Tu dois sûrement les connaître.
-Oui bien sûr, j’ai beaucoup entendu parler de vous.
-En bien j’espère. Me sourit le seul tribut mâle.
Finnick Odair, le chouchou du Capitol entier. Enfin il est aussi connu pour les expériences incroyables qu’il offre au lit.
-Cela dépend des domaines.
Il me sourit, ses dents blanches bien alignées scintillantes alors que Mags pose une main sur le bras d’une petite rousse, Annie. Elle a gagné ses jeux sur un pur coup de chance. Mais je suis heureuse qu'elle ait pu survivre à l’arène.
-Pourquoi ma présence ?
-Je voulais que tu les rencontres. J'aimerais te laisser la gestion des Hunger Games, d’ici quelques années. Il est temps que tu apprennes.
Mon visage devient livide alors que je me tourne vers lui, complètement démunie.
-Je ne suis pas une grande fan de la violence, tu le sais bien, papa. Je ne suis pas convaincue que je sois la meilleure personne pour superviser un jeu de mort imminent.
Ma réponse n’a pas l’air de lui plaire, je le vois à la contraction de sa mâchoire et ses yeux vicieux qui se posent sur moi. Je prends une inspiration avant d’essayer de m’expliquer.
-Ecoute-moi pour une fois, s’il te plaît. Les Hunger Games sous mon commandement seront une catastrophe, je ne peux pas faire ça aussi bien que toi. Je n’ai pas ton expérience.
-C’est pour cela que tu apprendras à mes côtés. Je serai ton formateur. Ton apprentissage commence dès cette année.
Je jette un regard à Jameson qui me fait signe d’accepter. Je me retiens de soupirer et souris à mon père, comme si j’étais heureuse de la responsabilité qu’il me donne.
-Je ne te décevrai pas, papa.
-Je le sais. Finnick s’occupera de ton introduction aux dessous des Hunger Games. Tout est déjà vu avec lui.
-Oh. Très bien. Pourquoi pas les vainqueurs du 1 ou du 2 ?
-Je m’occuperai de toi comme une princesse. Les autres sont un peu brutes.
-Mais il faut l’être pour gagner les jeux, n’est-ce pas ?
-Bien sûr, mais il faut savoir être pleins d’autres choses pour gagner.
-J’ai hâte que vous m’en appreniez plus, monsieur Odair.
Je lui souris sincèrement, ce qui semble le perturbé un peu. Mon père toussote faiblement, me ramenant à lui.
-Finnick restera au petit palais avec toi, ta sœur et les domestiques.
-Bien.
-Peux-tu l’accompagner avec Jameson ?
-Avec plaisir.
Je me tourne pour faire face à Finnick qui est déjà debout, disant au revoir aux deux femmes. Je l’observe silencieusement et patiemment, il tient à elle, cela se voit par ses gestes. Il est tendre et protecteur avec elles. Il finit par se tourner vers moi avec un fin sourire mais qui ne reflète rien de particulier. Je l’invite à me suivre alors que Jameson nous ouvre les portes.
-Jameson, demandez aux domestiques de préparer notre voyage au petit palais. Qu’ils fassent les valises, je pense que nous allons y rester un long moment.
-Très bien mademoiselle.
-Merci. Suivez-moi, je pense pouvoir vous emmener à un endroit qui devrait vous plaire.
-Ah oui ? Quel est cet endroit, mademoiselle Snow ?
- T/P T/N.
Il me regarde en fronçant les sourcils, ne comprenant pas vraiment alors que je ricane de son état. Mais je ne compte pas lui expliquer quoi que ce soit, s’il veut savoir il devra demander.
-Par ici.
Il me suit jusqu’à l’extérieur dans les jardins avant qu’on n’entre dans une serre. On suit un petit chemin avant d’arriver sur une piscine ressemblant plus à un lac à l’eau bleu turquoise magnifique.
Je me tourne vers le vainqueur et vois sa mâchoire se décrocher. Je ricane légèrement attirant son attention alors je mets une main sur ma bouche, étouffant mon rire. Il attrape doucement mon poignet et le tire doucement vers le bas, me souriant comme s’il voulait me charmer.
-Je n’ai jamais entendu quelque chose de si mignon.
Je n’ai le temps de rétorquer que Marlo débarque comme un bourrin.
-Ne la touchez pas, vous n’en êtes ni digne ni autorisé.
-Marlo. Ai-je coupé alors que mon agent de sécurité s'approchait de Finnick, l'éloignant de moi.
-Et vous, mademoiselle, il va falloir que l’on revoit les règles de sécurité. Me dit-il durement alors que je le regarde suppliante. Et ne me faites pas votre regard de chaton en détresse. Cela ne marche pas.
Il prend ma main et me fait prendre une distance absolument exagérée du vainqueur du 4. Ce dernier sourit, amusé de la situation, pour autant je ne trouve rien de drôle.
-Visiblement s’il faut que je révise les règles de sécurité il faut que tu révises tes bonnes manières, Marlo.
-Mademoiselle n’est pas en mesure de me réprimander.
-Et pourquoi ?
-Parce que vous vous mettez en danger telle la petite fille naïve que vous êtes !
Je fronce les sourcils, nous sommes repartis pour une longue dispute pleine de cris et d'insultes.
-Hé, n’hausse pas le ton sur elle. Elle n’a fait que me montrer cet endroit.
-Où il y a de l’eau. Et tu es un tueur hors pairs au sol autant que dans l’eau.
-Il ne me fera pas de mal, Marlo. Ce n’est pas un monstre !
-C’est un tueur, mademoiselle. C’est du pareil au même.
-Vous avez fait de lui un tueur de ce que je sache alors cessez votre hypocrisie !
-Mais…
-Dehors ! Immédiatement !
-Votre père… !
-Je viens de te donner un ordre, exécute le ou tu le seras.
Le grand homme en smoking noir dévisage longuement Finnick avant de me regarder froidement mais je tiens son regard.
-Je ne serai pas loin.
-Parfait, faites en sorte que je ne vois pas votre tête d’ici notre arrivée au petit palais.
Il acquiesce avant de se poser je ne sais trop où en dehors de la serre.
-Tout va bien ? Me demande le blond, le visage penché en avant.
-Ce n’est pas moi qui a été insulté. Allez-vous bien, vous ?
Il semble surpris mais chasse le sentiment en quelques secondes seulement. Cette capacité à passer d’une émotion à une autre est inquiétante. Il arbore maintenant un sourire suffisant.
-Je n’ai pas pour habitude qu’on me pose cette question. Mais ça va, j’ai vécu pire.
-J’imagine.
-Vous n’avez pas l’air de vraiment savoir mon parcours. Suivez-vous les Hunger Games, mademoiselle ?
-Pas vraiment, je n’aime pas ce jeu. Il est stupide. Je préfère lire des livres contant l’histoire. Mais récemment j’ai dû m’y intéresser. Pour vous.
-Pour moi ? Interroge-t-il, presque au bord de l’hilarité.
Je fronce les sourcils, ne trouvant pas le sujet drôle.
-Riez-vous des tributs morts dans l’arène monsieur ? Ou encore de la pauvreté dans laquelle vit les populations des 5 à 12 ? Parce que je ne trouve pas cela amusant.
-Non, pardon.
-Vous êtes quelqu’un de bizarre. Est-ce que Marlo a raison, êtes-vous fou ?
-Je suppose qu’il faut être un peu fou pour survivre au jeu. Qu’est-ce que vous en pensez ?
-Je pense qu’il faut être courageux et fort. Dans plein de domaines.
-Vous n’avez pas totalement tort.
-Bien sur.
Un blanc s’ensuit alors que je réfléchis à ce qu’il vient de me dire. Les tributs choisis ne peuvent décidément pas tous être un peu fous. Comment mon père aurait su que ces tribus étaient fou avant même que les jeux commencent ? Soudain j’entends le bruit d’un plongeon avant que de le ne m’éclabousse sur la joue. Je laisse échapper un cri de surprise avant de regarder le lac, Finnick est dedans, torse nu, seulement avec son pantalon ample. Son tee-shirt est par terre, à quelques pieds de moi. Il ressort de l’eau plus loin, secouant la tête en reprenant sa respiration.
-L’eau est-elle à votre convenance, monsieur Odair ?
-Aussi parfaite que vous, mademoiselle.
Son compliment raisonne dans la serre alors que je ne peux m’empêcher de rire à sa bêtise. Je m’installe sur un transate alors qu’une domestique arrive pour me demander les collations que je souhaite, je lui demande simplement deux limonades fraîches. Entre-temps, Jameson revient vers moi, apportant deux trois livres pour m’occuper. Il observe longuement Finnick faire des longueurs avant que je ne lui donne un coup de coude léger sur son côté, il me regarde à présent.
-Jameson, ne le regardez pas comme s’il venait d’une autre planète. C’est impoli.
-Se mettre à moitié nu devant vous est impolie, mademoiselle.
-Je l’aurai trouvé stupide s’il se baignait tout habillé.
-Il est vrai.
-Le trouvez-vous stupide Jameson ?
-Finnick Odair est quelqu’un de très malin, mademoiselle. C’est pour cela que vous devez redoubler de méfiance.
-Vous, vous avez parlé avec Marlo, je me trompe ?
-C’est possible.
Je souris à leurs comportements surprotecteurs mais dans tous les cas Finnick va m’accompagner de partout pendant un certain temps alors autant le mettre à l’aise dès maintenant.
-Nous partirons ce soir.
-Superbe. Merci, Jameson. Vous pouvez disposer.
Il semble hésitant avant de se courber en avant et de quitter la serre. C’est alors que Finnick nage vers moi avant de sortir de l’eau. L’eau ruisselle sur sa peau bronzée, venant finir leur course sur son vêtement.
-La vue vous plaît mademoiselle T/N ?
Je le regarde droit dans les yeux, les joues chauffantes alors que la honte grimpe en flèche dans mon corps. Je bafouille des excuses avant de porter mon attention sur mon livre d’histoire. Il s’amuse de la situation, ricanant joliment, mais encore une fois quelque chose me dérange de sa manière de faire. On dirait que toutes ses réactions sont faussées par je ne sais trop quoi.
Il s’assoit à côté de moi, sur le transate parallèle au mien. Je ferme mon bouquin et le fixe dans les yeux, il fait de même me souriant.
-Puis-je poser une question ?
-Vous devrez payer.
-Comment payer ?
-Oh vous voulez vraiment poser votre question…
-Dites moi.
-Un secret. Et vous aurez ma réponse.
Je fronce les sourcils, il veut un secret ? Pourquoi faire ? Je trouve ça totalement déplacé.
-Les secrets sont personnels.
-C’est ce qui est intéressant.
-Et les gens vous disent leurs secrets ?
-Bien sûr.
-Qu’ont-ils en échange ?
Son visage se ferme quelques secondes avant qu’il ne détourne le regard, se massant le menton, comme s’il réfléchissait à la meilleure réponse.
-Qu’est-ce que vous connaissez sur moi ?
-Que vous êtes le vainqueur mâle du district 4, tout le monde vous idolâtre au capitol mais je ne comprends pas pourquoi. Vous êtes certes beau garçon et charmant je ne trouve pas que vous avez une âme exceptionnelle.
Il me regarde comme si j’étais un extraterrestre et je ne comprends pas. L’ai-je vexé ?
-Vous ne me voulez pas alors ?
-Vous vouloir pour quoi faire ?
-Mon corps.
Là, c'est moi qui le regarde comme s’il venait d’une autre planète. Je prends enfin conscience de ce qu’il m’avance et je lui envoie mon livre dans la figure, le surprenant. Il se l’est pris dans le nez.
-Hé !
-Non mais qu’est-ce que vous avez dans la tête ?
-C’était une simple question.
-Nous devons nous préparer pour le voyage ! Magdalen, donnez lui de quoi se sécher et dites à Jameson de s’occuper de lui.
-Oui, mademoiselle.
Je me tourne vers Finnick toujours aussi rougeoyante. Je ne sais pas quoi lui dire alors je le dépasse en récupérant mon second livre. Je lui laisse cependant celui qu’il a dans les mains. Je me tourne de nouveau vers lui et le lui montre de l’index.
-En espérant qu’il vous serve un minimum à vous instruire.
Puis je quitte la serre, retrouvant directement Marlo.

The survivors of District 12 singing and dancing at Finnick and Annie's wedding hits so different after reading/watching tbosas. Can you imagine Snow's reaction to that propo? No matter how hard he tried to erase Lucy Gray and to obliterate District 12, she lived on in her music, music which is kept alive by the people of the place she once called home.

Thinking again about how Suzanne esentially subverted the "beloved famous man that is actually a horrible person in real life" with Finnick, who is the complete opposite of that.
Finnick has this whole image costructed around him by the people that abused him for years: the Capitol's darling, their golden boy, the sex symbol of Panem, the man that has countless lovers but leaves them constantly and doesn't look back etc. And you would expect, initially, to meet a man that retains at least a part of that persona in his day to day life. But Finnick doesn't, not even one bit.
You see instead a man that is deeply in love and completely devoted to the one woman he quite literally adores, a man that protects Mags, his old mentor and his mother figure, as much as he can, a man that wouldn't leave Johanna behind, a man that gathers whatever strenght he has left to speak publicly about the abuse inflicted upon him at the government's hands; the opposite of what the Capitol's media and reputation made him out to be.
#don't even get me started on beetee's line about how it's a miracle finnick is still with them giving all the abuse he suffered#that line is haunting#i just love him he's such a great character :((#finnick odair#annie cresta#odesta#mags flanagan#johanna mason#the hunger games#thg

In Mockingjay Part 2 when Peeta has lost his mind and is dropped off with Katniss and the rebel party who are about to kill Snow. The others treat Peeta as a threat, but Finnick steps in when they raise their weapons against Peeta and is shown the entire time as being patient with him and has Peeta repeat phrases that help his mind and that he would need to repeat to Panem, and he also advises him to just ask when Peeta tells Katniss he doesn’t know the difference between what’s real or not real.
Finnick is the only one in the party that has the patience for Peeta (outside of Katniss’s love for Peeta that is) when his mind is shattered because he's used to helping and being so patient over the years with Annie that he immediately does it with Peeta.

i know the fanon is that annie wasn’t a career and just didn’t have anyone to volunteer for her but i actually think she’s more interesting as a career tbh. she trained her whole life, she volunteered, she saw her tribute partner get beheaded and the trauma was so strong it changed her forever. that’s it, that’s the post.
