I’ve been getting back into my Thg phase and I’m currently OBSESSED with the idea the "hijacking" torture method that Suzanne Collins has come up with
The idea of turning a Whumpee against everything they’ve ever known. Using fond memories, drugging them up so they can’t tell fiction from reality, and then brutally torturing them to make those memories into nightmares.
And then Whumpee is handed over to caretaker. After disappearing for weeks. They look noticeably different. Cheeks hollowed from starvation, bruises mottling their body, lightning-shaped scars from being shocked.
“Whumee?” Caretaker approaches too quickly, trying to pull them into a hug.
“Oh—I’m so glad you’re—“
Imagine their shock when Whumpee shoves them away, screaming "DON’T FUCKING TOUCH ME!"
