g - gifts

receiving thoughtful gestures from finnick is nothing unusual. he’s always thinking of you, finding traces of you in the smallest details around him. whether it’s the soft sunset-orange seashells that he finds as pretty as your eyes, or the necklaces with your birthstone that catch his eye in the capitol, you’re always in his mind.

when he goes to the beach, craving the quiet company of the waves rolling onto the shore, he often returns with his pockets filled with seashells. he brings a few conch shells, determined to turn them into earrings for you, along with colorful spiral shells and tiny scallops to decorate your dresser, and a large shell to use as a jewelry holder. 

after seeing how much you adored the seashells, he decided to buy a small wooden box, shaped like a treasure chest, and decorate it with seashells of all shapes and colors. finnick spent an entire morning sitting on the floor, glue in hand, tongue sticking out in deep concentration, arranging the shells in the prettiest way he could while making sure the box wouldn’t get too heavy or risk any falling off. the memory of your face lighting up, followed by  a little too tight hug after receiving the gift, still makes him giddy, butterflies in his stomach as if they might burst just from the thought of your radiant smile and crinkled eyes.

his gaze drifted over the gaudy, gold-colored walls of the capitol stores. the absurdly large and obnoxious statues of their leader standing in the middle of a lavish plaza made him want to either laugh or vomit, whichever reaction came first. he knew perfectly that you have told him countless times that he doesn’t need to bring you anything from the capitol, just his safe return, but his eyes had landed on a stunning necklace with your birthstone. suddenly, all he could think about was how the gemstone would look resting against your chest. hell, he was even tempted to get another one for himself, eager to have a piece of you with him wherever he goes. now, whenever he’s feeling anxious, his fingers absentmindedly rub the small gem, as if by touching it, he can feel your comforting presence, wondering if you do the same with yours to feel close to him.

if you were to ask finnick why he's so enthusiastic about giving you sweet presents, it’s because he loves the “reward” that comes with it. even the smallest gestures, like cutting and preparing bowls of fresh fruit for you to enjoy after a peaceful afternoon at the beach, are met with you jumping to his embrace, showering his sun-kissed cheeks with relentless pecks. as you continue your loving attack on his now rosy face, he can’t help but giggle uncontrollably, feeling flustered. despite being together for years, he still becomes bashful at your tender displays of affection. he wraps his arms around you, lifting you up and spinning you around before gently setting you down on the couch, where he traps you between his arms and kisses your neck until you’re left breathless.

on the other hand, he also loves receiving gifts from you. he has seen it all, dazzling rings from the so unawarely disturbing capitol people, poor exploited creatures paraded as exotic pets, and the fanciest food ever made by human hands. yet, despite all of this, he always prefers your handmade gifts.

the day you surprised him with a scrapbook, he couldn’t hold back the tears of joy that welled up in his eyes. the large, glitter-sprinkled brown book felt heavy in his hands, and he looked at you with a mix of excitement and curiosity, so impatient to discover why it felt so bulky. when he opened it, he was greeted with a beautiful collection of memories: leaves from the day you first met, knitted bracelets he made for you before your first dates, a drawing of his soft green eyes you did after expressing to him how mesmerizing they were, pressed flowers from bouquets he had given you throughout your relationship, and photos pulled out from wherever you could -even a district 4 newspaper cutout featuring a 16 year old finnick winning a local fishing competition, proudly holding a small wooden trophy that resembled a swordfish, with you beside him, jumping with excitement.

hypothesis: vampires are magically vulnerable to light originating from the sun

observation: moonlight has no effect on vampires, despite being a reflection of the sun

conclusion: this aversion is not a result of light or its origin, but some property of sunlight only present in direct contact

hypothesis: vampires are extremely sensitive to uv radiation

"I loathe him. And, despite myself, I respect a worthy opponent...Which he isn't because he's a demon and I cannot respect a demon. Or like one."

decided to draw a small part of the bookshop opening deleted scene bc not one day goes by where I don't think about it 🥺 we lost so bad by not getting this one 😭😭 especially bc it contrasts the season 2 finale so well… I could write entire dissertations about it 🤧

Au where Damian comes to Gotham with the goal of infiltrating and eventually overthrowing Batman instead of inheriting the mantle. Not much changes from canon except for the fact that he views everything that batman owns as his. That's his future cave and his future batmobile. This also includes his robins. After all everyone knows Batman wouldn't really be Batman without them.

Cue a very bewildered Tim being lectured on his eating habits by a righteous Damian who won't let one of his people take shortcuts with their health.
