A rite of passage is trying to google information about a character that’s from a series you haven’t finished yet and the first google autofill being “(character name) death”

[clowfish]

My two biggest hyper fixations when i was 13 years old both having jokes about big bathtubs will never not be funny to me

What do you think Katniss and Peeta would name their kids?

apologies for the convoluted answer im about to give to a simple question but I think about this VERY often and I am incapable of being concise ever

short answer—I’m super basic unfortunately bc I thought the names willow and rye were canon when I first joined the fandom and so now I’m attached to them buuuttt I do really think they are fitting, especially willow

under the cut is the long answer whoopsie

I’m really obsessed with naming conventions in the hunger games (like the covey, or most tributes having names that relate to their district’s industry, and ofc peeta being named after bread, which relates to his family’s trade as bakers). I especially love how Katniss’s family all have plant names, and I am really partial to the idea she carries on the tradition when naming at least one of her children. I think Willow is perfect for multiple reasons, one obviously being that it’s a plant, but then there’s also the connection to “deep in the meadow, under the willow”. I also think that it could be a subtle nod to covey naming conventions—i have a niche interest in old folk songs, especially from Appalachia and the Great Depression era, so I recognized a lot of the songs that appeared in the books. Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow is one of my favorite songs and I thought it would be so cute if Katniss named her daughter for it

However I have a more complicated relationship with their son’s name bc truth be told I actually don’t like Rye that much lol. I stuck with it before SOTR came out bc I thought it would be cute to carry on the naming conventions from Peeta’s family. Obviously peeta’s brothers are never named, so most people in like fanfic and stuff come up with bread related names for them (some of which are really ridiculous btw lmao like are we fr) and I used to be on this bandwagon too but after finding out peeta’s dad is named Otho??? Idk if I really believe all of his kids have bluntly obvious bakery themed names, and thus I don’t know if there really is an established naming convention among the Mellarks. So while I think Rye is cute, I do not believe in my heart that is their son’s name. but I haven’t really ever been able to think of an alternative!!

additionally, while I haven’t spent much time thinking about different names for their kids, I have spent loads thinking about what their kids would be like. One day I was super bored and spent hours drawing out a family tree of katniss and peeta’s descendants for the next 2 generations including all of their personalities, appearances, and general life trajectory, and full names, so embarrassing enough i have a very elaborate internal world of what kind of lives the toast babies lead (this was also because I like to imagine what a post-war district 12 would be like and how kids could grow up to live freer lives). But in a nutshell, my personal hc (because of that one line where Katniss calls her the “dancing girl”) is that katniss’s daughter revives the covey lifestyle!! I think she would give her own kids covey names which I have all written down (omg this took hours trying to find names and colors that sounded good together but it was also fun bc I was able to draw names from ballads I knew). I think willow would be basically a mini peeta with katniss’s fire when provoked, but also have a performing nature she gets from her distant covey cousins.

On the flip side!! I think their son would take after katniss, real outdoorsy quiet type. Which I think is also a reason I kinda like the name rye, because for some reason I sometimes appreciate the dichotomy when characters have a name that is the complete opposite from the type of person they grow up to be. “Oh the baker’s son was named after a type of bread, but he has absolutely zero interest in the bakery, that’s funny”. But again, I don’t really have that much preference for what their son is named, I think there could be some really cute plant names out there!! Fletcher is another popular one but I feel like it’s a little on the nose for Katniss lol

i am so hunger games pilled right now I accidentally read “kale sauce pasta” as katniss and peeta

Katniss and Gale aren’t the only ones who hunt in District 12.

Katniss says that most people aren’t brave enough to go into the woods with only a knife. And some people cross the fence to pick apples.

But Katniss explicitly states “Most of the Peacekeepers turn a blind eye to the few of us who hunt because they’re as hungry for fresh meat as anybody is”.

Meaning more than her and Gale. They might not being as successful as them but other people do in fact hunt/ gather too.

It’s a small detail but an important one.

It’s speaks the defiant and resilient nature of District 12, people who are pushed so far to the brink of death.

When bent the people of District 12 don’t break they snap back.

[clowfish]

Yes!!! I’ve always wondered about the other hunters of 12

In Catching Fire, katniss says that when gale’s dad died, “even then, he [gale] was a skilled trapper” already. This implies gale had experience hunting in the woods even before meeting katniss or his father’s death. He was only fourteen, I wonder how did he learn? Did his own father teach him, like katniss’s? Was his dad a hunter?

Katniss never really runs across anyone else in the woods and her POV generally makes it seem as though the woods are solitary to only her and gal despite that “the few of us” comment. But if you really look at it, a lot more people probably enter the woods than it seems. (SUNRISE ON THE REAPING SPOILERS UNDER CUT!!!)

in sotr we see such casual existence of people beyond the fence. Burdock takes Haymitch to the woods several times, theyve skinny dipped, and I’d assume that he has probably taken other close friends there too. Haymitch doesn’t really exhibit or express much fear in these moments, even as a young child. Hattie has her whole bootlegging business stationed in the woods. Lenore Dove is chilling out in the trees as a kid (ofc, she’s covey and thus probably most likely to ignore the fence regardless lol). Also, Haymitch says that “the Everdeens are hunters”, implying there are more hunters than just Burdock!! How did he learn? Has the skill been passed down in his family? Are there other Everdeen hunters out there?

I think I just wish Katniss wasn’t such a recluse socially and we actually got more insight into how other kids view the woods lol bc it seems like it was a lot more carefree in sotr. I find it hard to believe there aren’t more rebellious groups of friends traipsing under the fence out of curiosity. Then again, it is also possible that the fear mongering surrounding the woods may have been amped up between Haymitch’s time and Katniss’s

Sunrise on the Reaping ch. 20 storyboard

aaaand the scene that made me sob my eyes out

[clowfish]

im reeeally hoping that the sunrise on the reaping movie’s visual design will build off of the whole retro-futurism styling of the TBOSAS movie and have a 70s or 80s flair in the costuming bc how sick would that be

[clowfish]

“What color name did this rainbow girl carry to the Tenth Hunger Games? What happened to her after? Did she come home? What did she do to be erased so completely?”

Lowk hate how this one turned out but it’s haymitch’s bday so I’m obligated to share

[mrsterlingeverything]

Made it all the way to work and realized I forgot my cyanide pill in case of capture

[sodafizzyart]

I like to imagine Catching Fire era domesticity (it doesn’t exist)

[clowfish]
