Jang Seung-jo as Det. Oh Ji-hyuk in The Good Detective (ep. 1)
currently obsessed with him
A take I’m not sure I 100% agree with is that Peeta’s hijacking was what finally got him to see Katniss’s flaws.
- Peeta starts seeing Katniss’s flaws at the end of the first book when he gets his heart broken at the train tracks. You can see how much more likely he is to get annoyed by her at the beginning of Catching Fire between their icing out period and when he throws the lamp. He even jokes in front of the Peacekeepers that she doesn’t listen to anyone when they’re talking. Catching Fire is the book where they get to know each other, by the time he’s captured the teenage crush has morphed into a genuine love from being friends with her. Between that and how frequently Peeta called Katniss out in the first book there’s nothing that implies he’s not aware of her flaws.
- By treating the hijacking like it imparted some kind of wisdom on Peeta it validates Snow’s paranoid thoughts and Katniss’s insecurities. That the torture that was half projection from Lucy Grey was maybe good in a way because it made Peeta get to know Katniss as she actually is. That Katniss was right that he saw the real her.
- A lot of what makes Peeta so important is that he’s the only living person Katniss feels truly safe with after her father’s death. Framing that safety as something rooted in Peeta not seeing the real Katniss—or her flaws—undercuts the way Suzanne Collins writes Everlark. Their bond isn’t built on illusion, even in the midst of Katniss’s acting in the first books Peeta could recognize her actual intentions during the goat story. Half the point of the “real or not real” game is the subtext that everything between Katniss and Peeta was real all along.
Peeta knew Katniss was a flawed individual all along and he loved her for how pure and flighty and reckless she was. Hand in hand with the clouded look in Peeta’s eyes, the hijacking just clouded his perception. And when he’s back in Katniss’s yard at her rock bottom at the end he’s back with a clear look in his eyes and the clear perception of his flawed girl who he loves.
Effie Trinket was Peeta’s Mags, by the way
"give us Annie'd Games, give us Finnick's Games"
What about Effie?
Give us a Capital perspective. Show us the transformation. Show us her beating the propaganda, since so many people missed the point of Sunrise. Show us her as a child fangirling over the Games. Show us her developing empathy for the tributes. Show us how Haymitch and Katniss and Peets changed her life and made ber realize tha Capital was wrong even though she was brainwashed.
Now THAT'S a story worth telling.
we don't talk enough about how when gale was whipped, peeta stood up for him and went up there because he knew he was katniss' best friend (and maybe lover for all he knew) and he didn't make any comments about it to katniss at all (at least not romance related ones)
but when peeta was tortured and hijacked, gale compared himself to him and said he would never top that level of pain and now katniss won't choose him
No but the Hunger Games really said "what do you hate more- the atrocities or the people who commit them against you? Because like it or not there IS a difference. If you hate the people who commit acts of pure evil more than you hate the acts themselves, what will stop you from becoming just like your enemies in your pursuit of justice? What will keep you from commiting those very same acts against THEM when the opportunity arises? And what then? The cycle of pain and suffering will never stop. Round and round it'll go. Nothing will ever change. But. BUT. If you hate the atrocities. If you hate the vile, senseless acts MORE than you hate the people who did them to you. If you are able to see that evil is evil regardless of who does it... The cycle ends with you. No, you may never get justice. But you will never be responsible for making others, even your enemies, suffer the same crimes you have. The atrocities will never be committed by you, never by your hand. And that's the way you change the world. It's the ONLY way" and that's why I am sure it will never stop being one of the most relevant works of fiction ever created
Katniss describes three things:
Food
How good Peeta is at manipulating the media
The Horrors
Ain’t no way I’m seeing people forget about Peeta. “All 3 victors have a bird representing them” “all district 12 victors weren’t reaped fairly” “did you know that all 3 of the victors from 12 actually cheated in the games” “it’s so cool that all the victors are from the Seam or are Covey”. Like omg what about Peeta?!?! Mans did not almost die like 10 times just to be tossed to the side!! He won the 74th games alongside Katniss, she wasn’t the only one who won it!! Just please put some respect on his name
The thing about Peeta is that he gave Katniss an out multiple times throughout the series.
He offered to die in their first games. He undid his bandage on his bleeding leg and literally said “It’s what I want”
In the Quarter Quell he volunteered so that he could protect her and guarantee her survival and gave his blessing for her to move on.
In Mockingjay he asks someone in Squad 451 to kill him and in the tunnels he asked to be left behind and die.
He repeatedly gave Katniss the opportunity to let him go and love someone else but Katniss refused. She refused each time because she can’t live without him. She loves him, it was always him.
Katniss: Uh, I think I got your lunch. *Holds up a note that reads: ‘I am very proud of you. Love, Haymitch’* Peeta: Oh yeah. I didn’t think this was for me. *Holds up a note that reads: ‘Be good. For the love of God, Please be good.’*
real or not real 4 (3) (2) (1)
“remember Peeta can camouflage himself because he’s a baker” said with a mocking tone makes me so mad because they completely misunderstand why he’s able to camouflage and why decorating cakes is mentioned in that context. Peeta was poor, a different kind of poor from the seam, but poor nonetheless. he didn’t have money for paints nor canvases. he is an artist, he creates, he uses his paintings after the first hunger games as his therapy. he loves painting, so he used whatever was available to him to show his artist soul. he was able to decorate cakes and pastries as if they were canvases because they were going to gain a profit from it, but I’m certain that in his free time he probably used the elements to draw and paint, these being water and mud and flowers and whatever he could find. plus he received official training the days before the games.
please learn how to read, stop skimming through pages to fulfil your yearly quota of books read.
Katniss got shot, knocked out, drugged up and had dreams of searching for Peeta and following his scent and cuddling with him even after she experienced the violent “evil mutt version” of him. She made out with a pearl because she missed kissing him. She comforted herself in the murder arena by falling asleep fantasizing about his babies. She canonically states that she held off from ending her own life after the war because she felt like she was “waiting for something”—for him to come home, because the moment he arrived back in 12 she was motivated to take a shower and leave her depression hole for the first time in months. And you think she just settled for him because she couldn’t get over Gale’s association with the bombings?
Something about Haymitch associating Lenore Dove with the bunnies that kept him alive in the arena
Something about Katniss associating Peeta with the dandelions that kept her alive
Something about love and hope being the true reasons to stay alive
Katniss is a singer and Peeta is a painter. They’re artists, born into a world that robbed them the joy and freedom of making art. I hope they found that joy after the war and their home was full of music and art. I hope their children never know a world without it.
One of my fave Everlark scenes isn’t kissing or anything romantic. It’s when Peeta admits he painted Rue for the Gamemakers, and everyone is shocked so Katniss is like, “well I hung Seneca Crane whoopsie.” And then they just giggle because they are both so alike in some ways. Maybe Peeta is more artistic and intentional while and Katniss is more confrontational and reactionary, but they are in step with each other in a way that is truly impressive.
