Lysander au Lune, every time he sets foot in a room with a man of honor:

You better watch your back, Diomedes. Because this bitch is shooting everybody out here.

It’s so funny to me that victra has like…a normal job. Everyone else is either military or military adjacent, but she’s literally just the ceo of a huge shipping company, she’s not even in politics. Like sure, she’s former military, but she hasn’t been doing that in years until the war comes back to mars. Like imagine turning on the tv and you see footage of Jeff bezos beheading an enemy general. That’s what the citizens of mars were experiencing during the battle of Phobos.

my personal argument for open borders is really simple it just boils down to "i believe restricting human movement and barring certain people from certain places on this earth is a human rights violation"

[ransomnote]

i mean this. everyone should be able to walk freely between mexico and the united states, fuck an ID, fuck a passport, fuck a visa. it's land, continuous, uninterrupted land. the soil on one side of the fense has the same geologic makeup of the soil on the other. we drew this invisible line in the sand, we can wipe it away with our feet together. it is well past time the world organizes en masse for our freedom of movement.

This YouTube comment has been on my mind since I finished SOTR so this is what I came up with:

Lucy Gray was the mockingbird, living on the outskirts of district 12 and was there at the wrong time when they were forced to stay there after the Dark Days. They were subjected to the Capitol’s politics despite not being a part of Panem, technically speaking. Lucy Gray became part of the Games and, likewise, the mockingbird became affiliated with the Capitol through the jabberjay’s release into the woods, but it still continued to sing its own song.

Haymitch was the jabberjay, a Capitol tool that did what it had to in order to survive. The Capitol thought they could control them, but they retaliated in the form of rebellion. Haymitch refused to be a piece in their game and tried to end it, and the jabberjay, in the eyes of the Capitol, created a freak of nature that showed the Capitol’s lack of complete control.

Katniss was the mockingjay, a slap in the face of the Capitol, something that was never meant to exist. Together, the song of the mockingbird that lived on for generations and the stubbornness of the jabberjay that refused to die, the mockingjay had the best of both worlds. It was a symbol of rebellion and unity.

@nestaarcheronweek | Day One: Bonds

“I love you, Feyre.”

[Nesta] had never said the words aloud. To anyone.

[…]

“I love you, too,” Feyre whispered to her sister, and smiled.

***

Family relationships often leave us in doubt about the validity of the feelings that others have for us, whether they exist genuinely or simply because of the obligation and strength of blood ties.

Specifically in Nesta and Feyre’s case, their relationship was troubled for many reasons, from the absence of parents to poverty, and the doubt about the reciprocity of love always hovered over them. That is why Nesta’s first “I love you” being for Feyre and her receiving one in return, in a reciprocal way, is possibly one of the most moving moments in Acosf.

But, as much as a declaration in an extreme situation was welcome in the case of both, imagining them later sharing their tastes and everything that makes them who they are, thus strengthening an existing bond, enchants us.

@nestaarcheronweek Day One: Bonds

For Day One, @melphss and I wanted to showcase a special bond for Nesta. A bond with her nephew, Nyx ❤️

We both love Nesta and little Nyx and wanted an art piece that captured a bonding moment for them in the future. So here we have Nesta and Nyx enjoying the sunrise together as they practice the Valkyrie mind stilling technique.

What other things could you see Nesta and Nyx doing together?

Thank you, @lilytea_art, for creating this amazing piece of art for us featuring Nesta and Nyx together! We absolutely love it, and we hope you all love it as much as we do!! 🫶

i’m so appreciative to suzanne for reframing the rebellion from the original trilogy as a “they saw their moment and took it” type situation and showing us that they’ve been trying, over and over, with so many failed attempts, to break the arena and incite a rebellion for decades. in this current political climate never giving up hope is so essential. haymitch wasn’t the first nor the last, and they kept going even when it seemed completely futile, and that’s what counts, and what ultimately saves them all.

[mage-chocolate]

The devastating parallel of Haymitch not being reaped, he was just taken because he was trying to protect the girl he loved. And the next time he’s reaped he’s replaced by a boy trying to do the same thing.

actually i love the reveal that the only reason effie got involved with the hunger games at all was because her little sister needed her.
