One For The Money, Two For The Show || Chapter 9

Previous

She first heard the crash, then the commotion. It wasn't amusement or excitement; it was a scream – more like a shriek. There was an edge in everyone's voice, an urgency and a specific panic Katniss had come to know from her mother's healing practices. People rushing in with someone injured, someone hurt.

In a moment of desperation and hope to give her family a better future, Katniss Everdeen signs up for “Panem’s Most Eligible” - Panem's most beloved reality dating show. She is there strictly to get paid and love was never in her cards - but what happens when the Eligible Bachelor is the boy that gave her family hope, so many years ago? What happens when that debt comes back, begging to be repaid?

Thank you once again to @firehelpmeforget for betaing. This chapter has been a long one coming and I am excited to see what you all think :) Things have to get a bit weird before they get good...

Thank you also to @mandrake-mistakes for some quick help with the banner. I, in fact, do not know how to use photoshop.

Side note, if you peep the name Jessamine in the chapter it is a 100% a Dishonored nod because it has consumed my every fiber xox

This is the best tag I've ever received on a post, I think

This is some wild backstory to get in a single paragraph that never comes up again, lol. Yeah, Katniss accidentally acquired a pet bobcat for a brief time until she killed it. No big deal.

She does this with the birds, too. Everyone else thinks that the way the birds respond to Katniss (and Burdock) is basically magic and meanwhile Katniss is like. "Oh. Yeah. That's a thing that happens sometimes." And then just. Moves on. This girl is out there charming woodland creatures like a Disney Princess and she barely registers it because it's so utterly unremarkable to her and also because she usually ends up killing said woodland creatures.

Haven't done an Archie Comics' panel redraw in a loooooong time, so figured it was about time to fix that — decided to draw this time around that one iconic scene featuring Tidus and Yuna from Final Fantasy X 🤭

Reference and alternate version below:

Reference panel from Archie:

I also like saving a "mint" version of the panel; without wear and color / printing misalignments etc. ☝️🤓

Thought about Yuna turning 18 and now I’m sad again

And if I haven’t already made it abundantly clear, there is no revolution without Peeta Mellark 🗣️

Y si no lo he dejado ya meridianamente claro, no hay revolución sin Peeta Mellark 🗣️

Et si je ne l'ai pas déjà dit assez clairement, il n'y a pas de révolution sans Peeta Mellark 🗣️

Und falls ich es nicht schon unmissverständlich klargemacht habe: Es gibt keine Revolution ohne Peeta Mellark 🗣️

如果我還沒把話說得夠明白，那就再說一次：沒有皮塔‧梅拉克，就沒有這場革命。🗣️

Me explaining to friends the final fantasy x plot: if you’re confused it’s because you’re meant to be confused

I love that Yuna and Tidus’s obsession with each other is straight up text in the game. No subtext.

“So this is what it feels like. It’s a much more wonderful feeling than anything I ever imagined”

They knew each other a week max by then

“I just want to say thank you for everything. Maybe that’s why it hurts. When I think about us never being together again at all, I’m afraid.”

YUNA LOCK IN HOW WILL YOU BECOME SPIRA’S SALVATION IF YOU KEEP IMAGINING RUNNING AWAY WITH HIM

[everlarksupremacy]

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I do believe that Peeta curses under his breath quite often. When a batch of dough isn’t turning out to be the right texture, when he can sense a checkmate against him coming while playing chess with Haymitch, when he and Katniss are engaging in…certain activities. You name it. He can have quite the potty mouth, and this being juxtaposed with his baseline, gentle demeanor amuses those around him greatly.
