maybe i was made for loving things. maybe that's what life is all about.

Yearning for what you can never have is beginner level. Real yearners know the good shit is what you could freely have if you allowed yourself to, but never will.

Do you Peeta expresses his love for Katniss more through words or actions? Which do you think means most to Katniss?

As a fanfic writer, I like writing Peeta complimenting Katniss, though I think she'd struggle with accepting compliments initially. Katniss doesn't have a favourable view of herself, despite what others see in her. This is a girl who's well respected for feeding her district, volunteering for her sister, etc, yet thinks Twelve "isn't a place that cares about her." It would take some time for her to realize she's worthy of Peeta's kind words.

But Peeta's actions are some of my favourite things mentioned in canon. Rubbing warmth back into Katniss' feet in the cave. Rubbing a tense spot in her shoulder in the Quell arena. Playing with her hair on the roof. Caressing her hair right before the beach kiss. The list goes on.

Again, I think Katniss would resist accepting them at first. I worry she'd see it as a debt she needs to repay to Peeta. But given she's also one to show love through actions, it would come more naturally to her.

I do think it's important for Katniss to hear loving words from Peeta. I want Katniss to know she's loved. Once she's settled into her relationship with Peeta though, I think any bit of kindness and love given to her would mean a lot. 💚🧡

#it's also how i don't recall a single moment she refused his physical affection #in fact she missed it when it was gone #his hugs their cuddling etc #and at the end that's how they grew closer. starting with the cuddling and then kissing

im all here for the deep symbolism and meaning in katniss and peeta finding each other and choosing each other over and over again and i could talk about how narratively important their love is until the cows come home but the more times i re-read the hunger games series the more im just like. damn. she was so obsessed with him.

baby girl had one insane interaction with this boy five years ago and she never stopped thinking about it. she stared at his face so long and so intensely that she started wondering about the logistics of his eyelash length. he told the whole world on national television that they got fake married and real pregnant and she thought it was sexy. girl was crazy in love and she's so real for that.

please stop writing "viscous" when you mean "vicious", it produces the weirdest mental images ever

Imagine all the things I could do if I just did them.

Peeta was reading contraband romance books during his free time at the bakery and y’all cannot convince me otherwise, because that level of rizz and romantic expression did not come from nowhere

#OH I LOVE THIS IDEAAAAAA

What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?

When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.
