I don’t know if it’s my place to ask but i was wondering if you’re going to continue the Sparks of rebellion series? I really fell in love with your writing and would love to read more (and know more about V and P 😅)
Hope all is good, and thanks☺️
this is so very sweet, thank you!! it means a lot to know my work has had an impression lasting beyond my time in the fandom 🥺
i still love these characters dearly and they mean a lot to me!
but truth be told, i've been drifting away from the hunger games for a year or so now. i cannot truly tell you why: whether it's the new prequel, whether it's both prequels, or simply me moving into other spaces.
i work fulltime, and recently have had a fully-shaped grasp of where i want to go career-wise!
i am still creating, but it's drifted elsewhere! i'm fully engaged in some fictional politics series based on uk politics that is so much fun and taking up pretty much ninety percentage of my free time! it's fun, seeing how some character elements and dynamics are pretty much what i keep drifting to (virgilia snow walked so emery montrose could run).
i won't say never say never, but at least as of right now, i am happy and content with what i am creating and fully trying not to drift this into a rant about *that*.
i was asked at some point about sharing more of the art i have had saved and never shared. perhaps i can leave it here to give you some joy on that at least! whether it's a vision or reality has always been a fifty-fifty, so do not per se take it as canon. this is, of course, a spoiler.
“as he [caesar flickerman] deftly dismounts the moon, he opens his arms and says, “hello, panem! shall we get this party started?” the audience roars in approval.”
prints + merch + commission info is pinned on top of my blog :)
also people need to realise that 'the hunger games' is not about a 16-year old starting a revolution, it is about adults in power using children for their political games! both for better or worse!
do you watch Andor?? I feel like you would love it and would especially like the character Luthen 👀
no. but. maybe..I've now compiled a list of star wars content to watch that's entirely based on what I like to see (a random guy doing non-jedi stuff) all because I've let this ask cook in my inbox and mind 🍴
*shuffles up shyly to ask for your blessing before I try anything with your babies*
Kidding, but also, I’ve been mentally gnawing on these guys since I was like 14 but now I’m so paranoid I’ll mess them up that I’ve dug out like six of my old college history and philosophy textbooks to cross reference. What’s the equivalent of fanfic writing unholy water blessed by the undisputed master and CEO of Capitol rebels?
I appreciate the dedication to the bit and the inclusion of conclave references.
you can just write it. if you want to chat, my dms are open. if you decide to get inspired by anything specific I've written that isn't included in canon, I'd appreciate a credit.
idk if this eases it, but whatever you will write, I promise you. I've seen the ends of hell and they've stared back.
