It’s all fun and games laughing about Haymitch over sharing and Katniss under sharing in comparison until you realize Haymitch is trying to remember all the fine details of everyone he will never see again and Katniss is trying to protect her remaining autonomy by keeping those details private
The difference in their trauma responses being shown from the very start of their narratives guts me
Something that’s so important to me not only in sotr but all of thg is just the importance of art. How songs and poetry carry decades of fighting for freedom despite time’s erasure.
The artists behind them may have faded a hundred years ago, what they left behind still remains and inspire people they will never meet.
Art not only creates a bond through time but it conveys the voices of thousands of silenced that carried them to the present. It’s the only way of expression left for the oppressed, the only way to leave a mark.
The pin of Maysilee. The clothes of Cinna. The paintings of Peeta. The music of the Covey.
And it’s why the capitol wants to repress it so much. Because creating is power. And if the songs Lucy Gray wrote may go unnoticed for many, they will not be forgotten and they will come back stronger. Art is memory. Art is rebellion. Art is political. Art is freedom
FROM NOW ON MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER DYNAMIC IS FOUND SIBLINGS
Thinking about Maysilee Donner. A girl who refused to let the Capitol dehumanize her. A girl who wanted to die with dignity, without begging for her life, because that mattered to her. Who set up a place setting with napkins and forks in the middle of the arena because she is a human being. Who loved jewelry and fashion and believed that her appearance sends a message about who she is, and who wanted that message to be respectable, dignified, worth something.
Thinking about Maysilee Donner who was unafraid to slap the woman who pulled her name in the reaping and who threw clever insults towards anyone who provoked her, no matter who they were. Maysilee Donner who believed human dignity is inherent but respect is earned and who refused to give respect to those who did not deserve it.
Maysilee Donner whose father threw money at the reaping stage as if that could save her, and the money floated to the ground just like the confetti, meaningless paper that signified nothing when placed against the power of the Capitol. Whose privilege could not save her. Who recognized that reality and faced it with more fortitude than any person should ever have to display. Maysilee Donner.
It was April 24th, St. Mark’s Eve. ✨
Happy TRC Day to those who celebrate!

I need a video with Kaz beating up the gang to different music it would be so ICONIC I can't
• kaz beating up the gang with toxic playing in the background
• boneless Jesper
• wylan being the softest ball
• leigh bargudo being a) our mom b) our goth aunt
• kaz being self-conscious that one time
• what death at the end of CK?????
"will we still be twins?"
that line is devastating, even though maysilee hated the whole twin thing; wearing the same clothes, the same hairstyle…
suzanne, I'm in your walls 🥰
