Compilation of my old TBOSAS tribute art more inspired by the book than the movie (+ Book moments that didn’t make it to the movie), thought it might be nice to just have all of that in one place

TBOSAS fix-it AU where the games are postponed because of the arena being demolished since the rebels planted a few more bombs, and Highbottom decides to try and play the wildcard in his attempt to stop the games. He feels very guilty for coming up with them in the first place, and I’m convinced he came up with the mentor program in an attempt to stop the games, so now that he sees his limited progress he decides to try and show the entire capitol the tributes are just kids.

This wild card is having the kids do a non-lethal version of the games where they just need to knock each other out, with the prize being a whole bunch of different foods and drinks. It’ll take place throughout a part of the city around the academy, with peacekeepers making sure the kids don’t try anything stupid. This is a massive risk, but Casca calculated correctly because the kids do exactly what people didn’t expect from “wild animals”. They laugh and they joke, they help each other in ways that are impossible to write off now that people are seeing it in real life, and they stop everything they’re doing as soon as they think they may have actually hurt someone else on accident. At one point Tanner almost throws Treech to the ground in a way that could have snapped his neck, and catches him at the last second with a horrified look on his face while he apologizes profusely. Treech just slaps him on the back and laughs it off, assuring him it’s fine, and they hug it out before mutually deciding to walk away from this encounter without fighting.

The last two are probably Reaper and Treech, since I’m sticking more closely to their book versions and there ain’t no way Lucy Gray would have beaten Treech in a straight fight without cheating. They actually have a good time sparring, until eventually Reaper knocks Treech out. When Treech wakes up again he complains about Reaper hitting too hard, asking him if that was really necessary, but in a joking kind of way because he clearly isn’t all that mad about it. Reaper gets his prize, and while being filmed for everyone in the capitol to see he shares with all the other tributes, and they fairly distribute everything in a way so everyone will get as much of their favorite foods and drinks as possible while remaining fair.

After this, people start interacting with the tributes at the zoo as actual people, rather than circus animals. Once the actual games come around, there’s so much protest they get cancelled. Initially just for that year, but it ends up being forever given public opinion.

Bonus: during the fake games, the girls have a tea party. At some point, Lucy Gray and Treech perform some songs together for fun and they have the time of their life on stage while Teslee and Circ go ham on all the electronics for special effects.

[enobariasdistrict2]

thinking about the scene in book!tbosas where teslee (district three female) was being attacked by the horrifying snakes and she nonverbally pleaded with mizzen (district four male) for help. and he only shook his head, not moving to help her - but the book specifically stated that this was more out of stunned fear/horror than any kind of menace or glee at teslee's imminent death.

and he wasn't even from her district too. they were not in an alliance. she literally had no reason to expect any assistance from him, but district divisions & sectionalism didn't matter when she was scared and in pain. none of these divisions of districts one, two, three, four, five through twelve matter!!! not when children are suffering and dying as penance for a just war that ended several years ago! it's as if the narrative is trying to tell you there is no difference between a suffering/dying child from one district or another.

A moodboard for teslee

[hellpeppre]

some tbosas modern au headcanons, mostly just the pack tbh, some of them are ooc but uh… shush

gonna be real with u, some of the headcanons r like partially stolen from other ppls fanfics or posts that ive read so if u see something on this list that u came up with plz dont be angry or anything i just stole it cuz it was cool💔

family headcanons🎉

——————————

coral and mizzen r half siblings with the same dad, mizzen lives with coral, her mom, and their dad bc his mom is dead 🎀 mizzen has a cat that he’s keeping secret from their parents, gee sure this wont turn out to be a big disaster in one of the fics im writing

dill and reaper r cousins, they live in the same house bc reapers mother wouldn’t let him come back to live with her after he got out of juvie or something i haven’t put too much thought into this, other than them the people in the household r their grandparents, dills parents, and dills older siblings, as well as two dogs

treech lives with his parents, grandmother, and his siblings, hes the middle child tragically. dont have a whole lot of thought put into this one ngl, i dont think about treech very much

lamina lives next door to treech, she lives with her dad, and like three cats, her mom died when she was younger and her relationship with her dad is pretty strained since

tanner and brandy r twins, brandy’s older, they have two younger sisters, their parents should definitely be divorced but they won’t fsr. on their farm they have a few chickens, a herd of cows, and two horses

lucy gray obvs lives with the covey, her parents r still dead tho I’m not sure quite what killed them in this universe but its not that important. idk if they have confirmed ages but i made barb azure the oldest. barb azures gf is over to their home so frequently that she doesn’t even bother knocking b4 coming in

teslee lives with her mother, and two older siblings, she took over the garage for her projects, one time her sibling tried to park their car in the garage and she screamed at them for thirty minutes bc they knocked over one of her drones 🎀

circ is teslees cousin, he lives with his parents and siblings, two older, one younger, also haven’t put a whole lot of thought into him and teslee bc i only recently realized how silly they were 💔

bobbin and wovey r cousins, wovey and her older brother moved in with bobbin and his parents after their parents died. bobbin takes his job of protecting his little cousin at school very seriously, they’re very close

alrighttt i haven’t thought about any of the other tributes enough so we’re gonna move on to regular various headcanons 🫶

————————————

coral needs glasses to read bc shes farsighted (whattt me? projecting? nooo never)

lamina always wanted a little sibling but never got one so she borrows corals 🫶 mizzen doesn’t mind being assigned a second older sister except for when lamina tries to get him to let her do his makeup (a well placed bribe of candy can convince him to let her on occasion, treech saved a picture for blackmail 🎀)

the pack as a friend group includes lamina and brandy, lamina and coral get along pretty well in this universe

if mizzen decides you have wronged him he will never forget about it, he still brings up the time treech accidentally hit him in the face with a door like four years later

teslee, dill, and circ have been friends since elementary school, they haven’t been in any classes together since sixth grade tho bc teslee and circ r both in advanced classes and dill is in remedial english bc of her undiagnosed dyslexia

mizzen is a weird kid, he’s been bullied pretty much since he started going to school, this leads him to get in a fights, which is why he was expelled from his first middle school 🎀

dill and mizzen have remedial english together bc both of them r dyslexic

sejanus’s ma teaches english and remedial english at their school

coral is the captain of her schools swim team

reaper and coral aren’t exactly friends but if they run into each other they’ll chat

mizzen and dill both thought the other hated them when they first met

cc takes orchestra a bit too seriously, if he hears u refer to a viola as a violin or something he may jump u

bobbin is in robotics with circ which is how they met, bobbin was once asked to sit out of a robotics competition bc he was too competitive and started swearing at the other team when they accidentally broke off a piece of his teams robot

teslee is in advanced english with cc, cc loves creative writing and teslee likes analyzing books. teslee and cc are friends but that all goes out the window when it comes to their grade in this class, teslee gets very upset when he gets a better grade than her on an assignment and cc has that little brother tendency to tease her when this happens. they aren’t allowed to sit beside each other anymore

mizzen and teslee have beef but they have to tolerate each other bc they’re both close friends with dill

coral has mommy issues bc her mom’s lowkey a narcissist and refuses to get therapy for the generational trauma shes passing on to coral and mizzen 🎀

brandy is the fastest to crash out when someones bothering her, if she doesn’t like you she will make sure yk and she will start throwing hands with no warning

teslee secured an internship with beetee for during her freshman year next year and she won’t stop talking about it

mizzen doesn’t believe in sunscreen

reaper loves painting flowers, he keeps his watercolor palette on his person at all times

the pack all borrow each others clothes

coral had a huge crush on persephone at one point but she never said anything and their friendship started to fade

mizzen does NOT know how to care for himself, his skin is sun damaged, his lips are perpetually cracked, his hair is outrageously dry from how much time he spends in salt water

coral is a barista

dill and reapers family are the caretakers for a graveyard, they live in a house in the graveyard and reaper helps to dig the graves, dill’s embarrassed of living in a grave yard and has never invited anyone to her house b4

bobbin likes sewing, he makes outfits for mizzens cat sometimes

mizzen has braces

"YOU CAN'T DO THAT! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO OBEY ME!"

The 7 Tribute Souls:

[zippiedippievippie]

Not to be annoying but Circ, Teslee, Hy, and Sol are computer/gaming nerds. They run a coding club called Computer Commodore to the Power of Four (what a mouthful, eew nerds!) that’s just the four of them and they hack websites whenever they’re bored

Teslee seems sweet until suddenly she’s hacking our beloved tumblr.com and sitting back to watch the chaos ensue. Also she definitely found Urban (🤢)’s user and exposed him to the entire school for his hidden love of telenovelas

Circ has mad computer skills but spends most of his time doing good aka fixing inaccurate Wikipedia pages (😡😡😡) and fighting with people on Reddit (he’s a sensitive soul who cries in the bathroom when the trolls are mean to him)

Sol likes to imagine herself as a baddie hacker with tats and piercings who could care less about anything (picture Rihanna in Ocean’s Eight or Samira Wiley in Nerve) but she ditches her computer in a heartbeat to go hang out with her gf (what a simp eew)

Hy is the only normal one. He actually knows what grass is (and has even touched it wow!) and parents love him. He’s into old arcade video games and his favorite movie is Wreck it Ralph (and denies it every time Sol brings it up, what about it!)

[kald-dal-art]

Drawings of TBOSAS characters people requested, still have more drawing requests to get to but they were more related to the OG trilogy so thought I could at least have all the TBOSAS characters in one post.

@lavenderbehindherear @coryo @sirensorisons and anon request :) hope you like it

[moreespressoformydepresso]

I want the tributes to escape and parkour through the Capitol to escape the cops peacekeepers. Someone films it (as well as the peacekeepers failing hilariously to keep up) and it goes viral.

The kids got away by knocking out the peacekeepers coming to drag them into the cattle car and scatter in all directions, taking the opportunity to wreak havoc across the city. It doubles as a diversion for Circ and Teslee to cause a Capitol-wide power outage and for Ginnee and Otto to hijack them a totally awesome truck to cruise away in.

Mizzen and Sheaf run around causing property damage with their antics, Brandy and Tanner are busy egging the Crane household, Panlo finds news reporters to livestream as many Ways In Which Gaius Breen Sucks And Should Break His Toes Kicking Rocks, Lucy Gray is performing a song (possibly with the help of Treech, Reaper and Velvereen) while actively getting chased, Facet is breaking into Livia’s room to destroy her makeup and deface every possession of hers he can find with it, Marcus is reconciling with Sejanus so they can team up and cause mayhem, Sabyn is cashing in on Forus’ offer to give her fashion products, Dill and Hy are collecting medicine, and generally there is Chaos.

Gaul tries to have the records deleted but it is a lost cause. Everyone remembers.

🌻 :D

send me a 🌻

i’ve been thinking a lot about D3 tributes lately, so here’s a few hcs related to that!!

Specific:

Teslee Ravuri grew up in an Indian ethnic enclave in Three Falls, one of the towns that make up the Stills. after she died in the games, her older sister wanted to move away to another town because everything reminded her of her baby sister—her favorite restaurant across town, the factory they both used to work at, the preschool Teslee wanted to work at when she got older—but she stayed for her parents, who were already grieving their youngest child. eventually, she meets her future husband and they settle down together, but she never forgets her baby sister. next to the pictures of her family on the mantle sits a small portrait of Teslee, and every day before going to work, she places a kiss on the picture frame to remind herself of what she lost.

Circ Bauer was on the road to become the second person in his family to attend and graduate college before he was reaped. instead, after he died, his younger sister studied and grew up to do just that. privately, she credits all of her success to him, even if she can’t do it publicly in fear of sounding like she’s denouncing the Games (even if that’s exactly what she’s doing).

Various:

the 16th hunger games was the first time the capitol provided uniforms for the tributes, and also became the first time Three won with Attican “Atlas” Hoffman.

while Three’s names can be pretty out there, many of them do not have crazy names like Beetee and Wiress do. names like Athena, Annabeth, or Darwin are all popular, and typically more common than industry-related names.

the only time two children from Stepanov were reaped in the same year was the 48th, while the only year two children from Midtown were reaped in the same year was the 45th.

until the 4th hunger games, no tributes were chosen from either Stepanov or Midtown, as both tributes from the 1st to the 3rd were from the Stills. the first tribute from Stepanov was Alyona Nikolaeva for the 4th while the first tribute reaped from Midtown was Circ Bauer for the 10th.

the highest kill count a tribute from Three has ever had was nine kills, held by Beetee Latier of the 40th hunger games.

Three has won a total of five times—the 16th (Attican “Atlas” Hoffman) the 40th (Beetee Latier), the 48th (Wiress Liseicki), the 55th (Marie Teller), and the 68th (Haskell Nishimaru).
