Oh and president coin. The absolute statement of having her be the one killed and snow dying by choking on his own blood. The narrative clarity of it all.
#the idea that the ones who claim the credit of the rebellion and the people who fought it having to live with its consequences#coin becoming president while sacrificing her own people and painting herself as the hero#and katniss recognizing the cycle of power is starting agaim before her eyes#so she ends it herself#a rebellion of her own making#the first choice shes had the complete freedom to make on her own#all others being choices of circumstance#her volunteering as tribute#her and peetas fake love story#her fighting the rebellion#this is the first decision shes made COMPLETELY of her own volition without any consequences that choose for her#she chose to end it before it even started#because she couldnt stand to let herself become coins symbol#she was not a symbol#she is capable of making her own decisions#and snow after the ballad of song and snake laughing at it all#probably outstanded that someone was bold enough to choose that choice#laughing because she had figured it all out#figured out what kept men like him in power#and she ended it#and he was amazed#and he died choking on his own blood because in the end he was still is own undoing#because all the power in the world cannot save you from death#a pitiful and lonely death
