It wasn’t an easy task to convince Coin to actually let them above ground for a few hours. Athena understands that she doesn’t have as much sway with the president as Katniss or even some of the other victors, but she has enough sway to get them an hour or two outside of the concrete walls of Thirteen. 

She offered him a smile.Going out would distract her from the fact that the others were off fighting without her. “I’ve heard that they’re supposed to be beautiful since we’re way out here.”

[capitolmarionette]

     Freedom. 

     How sweet the word tasted on the tip of his tongue, his body eager to escape the wretched confinement he had been in for months. Finally, he would be able to feel the wind against his skin, to hear the song of the night, to watch the stars overhead and know that there is a much bigger plan for them all. He had been desperate to see the sunset and to admire the aftermath of it, so much so that he found his pace quickening when his shoes felt the soft ground covered in grass. This was what he had longed for during his torture and even his recovery, the ability to roam freely, to admire the natural world. 

“Isn’t it beautiful? It’s   my favorite color. The   orange in the sunset I   mean.” 

     Peeta finished, his blue hues moving from the sky to rest on her face for a moment before returning to admire the colors all dancing together. He still recalled the last time he had been freely able to admire such a thing. It had been winter in a life he had long forgotten. But now his life was much different. He was a mutilated shell of whom he used to be, someone that was generally feared within his new community. Everyone he used to know avoided him as much as they could, but never Athena. 

“Can I ask you... Why  would you risk coming   out here with me alone?   Why would you waste   one of your demands on   me?” 

have you ever loved a character so much you were like ?????? ? ? ??!??!?!! ! ! !?? ??? how did this happen??? ?? ? ?!???! !!?!??!?!?

[capitolmarionette]

 I have been gone literally forever and I want to say I’m sorry for that. I was super depressed, found a boy who made me feel not depressed, and now we aren’t together anymore. The cons of that are that I feel useless and depressed again but the pros are that I have way more time on my hands. So LIKE THIS FOR A STARTER. Try to get my little man back out there.

secret santa stopping by !! hope you've been well and are having a great december ! what's your favourite thing about writing peeta? but also what's your least favourite thing? is there anything you do to help you get in the mood to write him?

     I love writing Peeta because he is a very complex character that I really love discovering deeper layers of. He starts off as a very ‘mary sue’ kind of love interest for Katniss, but I really think he develops into much more than that by the end of the books. He really transform into someone who can be admired. He lost everything, yet still managed to be kind at the end of it and not hate the entire world for what one man did to him. 

     I think my least favorite thing about him is that he’s so consumed with Katniss. A lot of his character in the books and films depends on Katniss and I find it’s hard to find other people other than Katniss’ to rp with in the thg world because of it. That said, Everlark is my otp haha. 

     As for getting into the mood to play him, I literally have a depressing thg playlist on my youtube that I always listen to. 

[capitolmarionette]

secret santa here again! :))) i hope you've been having a great day! what are your thoughts on peeta's family and how does he feel about his parents and brothers?

         My thoughts on his family? I think his father married his mother because he felt like he had to, not because he loved her. I think that his mother knows that too, which is why she is so miserable all the time and acts out towards her kids. As for his brothers, I think Peeta would be the meek one that they would ignore most of the time until they needed something done. I’d say Peeta loves his family very much, but there’s a part of him that doesn’t fit in with them. He really wants to be like them, but he just doesn’t have it in him. 

[capitolmarionette]

secret santa here!! i hope your december's been going well - what's your favourite thing about the holiday season? and what's peeta's?? :)

     My favorite thing about the holiday season is probably the snow and that it’s socially acceptable to drink hot chocolate with ever meal I eat. I also really like hanging around friends and family :D 

     Peeta’s favorite thing about the holidays is probably that they have always been good for him. I imagine his family life wasn’t always the best, thus the holidays were the only time his family probably stopped fighting and came together.

"Can I kiss you?"

    @staywithmemockingjay​ 

     The question that was posed only moments ago lingers in the thickening silence between the two. His lips part to say something to her, to respond to her question, but they press back together almost immediately in his hesitance. If they were to kiss now, what would happen? Was she asking to kiss him because she wanted to or because she was trying to put on another show? He wondered if she was aware of how MUCH he loved her, of just how much he would sacrifice for her. He would die a million deaths if it meant she could be happy, but the worst part wasn’t that it would be painful to do so, it was that she would  N E V E R  do the same thing for him. He was becoming just a piece in HER games. 

     Instead of allowing her to kiss him, he placed a small kiss on her cheek and backed away from her. 

                                                       “Good night Katniss.”

⭐ your muse inviting mine to see the stars ( going to shyly drop this in your ask )

@fallengxddesss

     Peeta is surprised at the girls invitation, confused almost as he hardly knows her, but some fresh air could do him some good. Thirteen is dusty and lonely since most of his ‘friends’ were on the front lines of the war that was raging just outside the doors that trapped him. 

                                    “Sure, I’ll go watch the stars with you.”

this might seem a little bit stupid but it seems a bit hard to find blogs that are okay with multi-muses. i understand that sometimes multis are a bit hard to navigate and understand but it’s still a bit disheartening to find a really cool blog only to see that they won’t interact with multis. so, if you could, please reblog this if you’re multi-muse friendly. this doesn’t mean that you follow & interact with every one out there, but you’re at least willing to check them out and not write them off completely. it would be really nice to know who would be willing to give us multis a chance!!

@capitolmarionette​

The arrow flew gently from her fingertips, caressing the air as it soared onward to it’s target. These traps that the Capitol and its lovely president had set up were getting easier to notice without the Hollow. She had expected this one to be flames or perhaps rubble crushing down to the ground, either way the movement of her weapon should set it off quite nicely without anyone getting injured. 

A boom echoed throughout the deserted city, her job believing to be over, and the cost seeming to be clear. Everyone had separated and she was with Peeta, along with another solider, one of the Leegs. Her feet started to lead backward to where the other two were safe, Leeg standing up to join her when something unexpected occurred. 

Another bomb.

Katniss could feel the heat against her back and a cry jump from her lips as the girl crumbled to the ground. Leeg was worse off, her corpse laying on the ground. That meant only one person was her hope; Peeta. Somewhere they’d both been before, though she’d never been on the edge of death. Seeing him behind the crashed structure she spoke softly to him in the hopes of keeping him calm.

                                ❝ It’s okay. I’m fine.                                 I can’t feel anything. ❞

[capitolmarionette]

     The sounds around the group of soldiers seemed to fill Peeta’s head with voices that were very unfamiliar to him. They were foreign, telling him to do things to the people around him that he didn’t want to do. It took everything in him to make sure he didn’t do anything RASH to those he was trying to help. The only thing he could think to do was hit his head against the butt of the unloaded rifle they had given to him. He started whispering his list in his head to make sure he didn’t have an episode - to make sure he didn’t let Snow beat him again. 

     That’s when he heard a loud explosion, one that wasn’t expected, wasn’t planned for. His eyes S H O T  upwards, blue hues scanning the area to see who was injured. He started to shake his head in a panic as he saw the corpse of one of his companions laying quite near to Katniss. Katniss. The name echoed through his mind as his feet carried him towards her. He stood over her, her words lost on him as he was too busy battling the voices in his head. One was telling him that she was to be helped and the other telling him to finish her off. His hands released the rifle he had been gifted to cover his ears in some feeble attempt to stop the shouting, to silence the unwelcome voices. His head shook back and forth as he attempted to calm himself down like they told him to do in thirteen. Count to ten and do it again until the voices stop. That’s what they told him, that was their best solution to reverse the conditioning the capitol had done to him. After a few moments, his eyelids opened again, his hands fell from his ears and he looked down at Katniss. His pupils changed size until they returned to something resembling normalcy. He bent his knees slightly and moved to grab Katniss’ arm to sling it over his shoulder. 

                              “We need to get out of the streets.” 

     He stated as he tried again to get her arm over his shoulder, but his handcuffs were stopping him from doing so. It was up to her then, she would have to choose to TRUST him or to wait for other help.

capitolmarionette liked your post:starter call

“Easy there, Peeta, I’m not going to kill you or shoot you or maim you unless i have to,” she stated glancing at the baker’s boy. He wasn’t stable at the moment never had been since Snow’s order to hijack him. “Just sit down and stop pacing you making them nervous.

[capitolmarionette]

     Peeta had not even been fully aware of his pacing until it was pointed out, causing him to become somewhat self conscious as he took a seat not far from the woman who was loading her gun. It seemed a BIT dramatic to threaten someone over pacing, but then again they were in a war zone and everyone seemed to be on edge. He was surprised he was still alive at this point when they had already lost so many good soldiers. 

                               “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

drinkupsweetheart:

Since seeing Peeta in THAT state, very little had made sense about this war. It was obvious why Snow did it; get to Peeta, get to Katniss, thus striking a heavy blow to her morale and subsequently hitting the rebellion where it hurt. But there was something else — it just wasn’t right that something as good and pure as this damn kid was screwed around with. There was NOTHING sacred left in this world and it pissed him off to no end.

So he did whatever he could to help Peeta out. Visits, speaking on his behalf [both to Katniss who was still stubborn and to Coin] — they were all part of a bigger picture. He NEEDED to see Peeta get better. The whole damn rebellion needed it, whatever they said to the contrary.

“Yeah kid, I did. It cost a lot but… I did.”

What Haymitch REALLY wanted to say was that he had to break his promise to Katniss in order to keep Peeta’s. That his main priority had always been Katniss, as much as that tore at him, because she was far too important to this war. And at the same time, he’d never met another kid like Peeta who inspired him to be a better man.

“She didn’t deserve it; still doesn’t, but she ain’t as bad as you think right now. You two had somethin’ special that can’t really be put into words. You’ll remember someday and come back thankin’ me again,” he laughed a bit, then smiled warmly.

As warmly as his selfish, shame-ridden ass could.

     The warmth that was granted to him was something he appreciated to NO end. During his stay at the capitol, he had started to doubt that there was any warmth left in the world, that all humans were just cruel beings that were slaves to their society. It was a hard thought to have when you were trapped, but one that surfaced naturally. But  N O T  in thirteen, he didn’t have those thoughts there. The doctors were nice and the nurses were gentle, and it seemed his old ‘friends’ were being just as kind - some even more kind than he remembered them being before all this happened. 

                    “Wasn’t she just pretending? Or was it real?” 

     Peeta questioned as he raised his eyes from his plate, the curiosity he felt showing through without him intending for it to. If there was one thing that was the same about the boy with the bread, it was that his emotions showed through his eyes when with those he trusted. He had never been a great actor despite what everyone thought of his accomplishments in manipulating the capitol people, most of the time he was just being honest. Like when he told Katniss he had loved her his entire life, that wasn’t pretend for him, but now he figured it had been for her. What a confusing girl she had been even before Snow’s torture, but now he hardly knew what to think.
