#katniss needs her dark humor support guy and he needs his dark humor support girl

[fireofamockingjay]

rereading Mockingjay for another fandom au fic i'm working on has made me realize i really love Katniss & Finnick's friendship.

in Catching Fire, it's layered with distrust, but in Mockingjay you really see how it morphs into wholesome friendship and mutual understanding as they share and bond over their fears for their loved ones and make morbid jokes in an effort to cheer each other up.

Finnick even loses his shit when Haymitch sedates Katniss in Mockingjay- so much he has to be sedated!

i just. i love them.

and it's gonna hurt as I continue rereading because...Finnick dies :(
