good evening!! imagine if there was a perfect au where absolutely all of your hunger games ocs and the original characters you've made backstories for live. war's over, no more games. i'm imagining the canon divergence au but without That One Thing That Happens With Emory.

anyways, the question i'm getting to here is which of them would be most likely to unironically own several ostriches?

this is a beautiful ask. a glorious ask. i will come back online for this.

see i had an IMMEDIATE instinctive answer which was Artemisia, hands down, except you said UNIRONICALLY and now i'm ... not sure

i have actually spent a large part of my workday contemplating this

i did text @penfoldx about Eibhlin, because I had Suspicions, and she had this to say:

Probably as a failed farming endeavor, because Eibhlin got attached. She doesn’t say this, but, she can’t actually imagine harvesting the meat off them, so it’s eggs and feathers and ‘scientific experiments’. Ostriches are low maintenance so that works. Holy cow, Brutus gonna lose his mind.

I'm still stuck on this. Odin loves birds, but he's not really into husbandry -- falconry yes, where you catch one for the season, train it and release it at the end, but a farm? no.

Devon and Misha are still fairly high if it's in the "start ironic, end up taking it weirdly seriously" kind of vein, maybe (you can RACE them!)

Brutus: No.

I wonder if Ronan might, if he ever decided to take something up, he's got dogs already, he doesn't really like cows, horses seem fun but they're big ........... ostriches? maybe? could be, could be .....

I invite discussion as it's going to be on my mind for a long time

[gildedtragedies]

i have nothing but time on my hands right now and the wmbk ostrich farm au is coming soon to a gildedtragedies tumblr blog near you

TYSM FOR ANSWERING i'm obsessed with this idea now and i had never even considered the idea of RACING THEM? brutus just walks outside one day and there are 9 FOOT TALL BIRDS racing down the village streets?

misha and devon order them unironically and it quickly becomes a serious endeavor, and then one of them lays an egg and they're like "hmm. hmmmmmmm" at which point eibhlin gets involved.

bonus points for your consideration: -ostriches will dance at humans they consider to be friends and you have to do a little dancey dance back at them as a gesture of cordiality. DEVON DOING THE DAILY OSTRICH DANCE? or okay okay misha and devon go out of town and Eibhlin takes over the practical care aspects but she is absolutely not doing the dance and Claudius would walk to the ends of the earth for her so Lyme steps out of her house one day and Claudius is frantically dancing at the birds???? -they are loud as hell! they make all sorts of weird noises! grumpy brutus having been kept up all night by ostrich sounds is a thought -can you even imagine how petra would feel about this development -i feel like emory would be surprisingly enamored with the birds. she would want absolutely no part in owning one but she'd be the type to drop by with an armful of fresh produce to mix into their food. -callista would hate everything about this probably, also one major concern for people who own ostriches in conjunction with domestic cats and dogs is that ostriches are known to bite the testicles off of small mammals. soooooooooooo there's that! -i can't even fathom how enobaria would feel about the birds but it'd be funny as hell

follow-up discussion point: what would misha and devon name them?

[lorata]

funny story my neighbours actually had an ostrich & emu farm growing up lol so i have vivid sense memories of what they sound like

THIS VERSION IS ALSO VERY FUNNY they both exist in quantum

Calli & Ronan's animals are all fixed because they can't afford a mass outbreak of puppies & kittens in the VV but that. sure is an image

Devon WOULD do the dance and have fun with it. Claudius would only do it under absolute pain of death (aka for the sake of the person he's fond of) while dying inside after Eibhlin made sad faces at him, and then of course make his usual noise about once he was Greatly Feared, once he was The Child Murderer, now he Dances At Birds

(Lyme: you don't HAVE to Claudius: eh it's fine)

Petra would probably have a parasocial rivalry with the herd leader

The Pile

To @lorata and her universe. Thanks for letting me play in your sandbox. Also to my grandmother-in-law, who made me bury a chicken wing and the first slice from the first loaf of bread I made for the first meal in my new house, all while wearing my nicest clothes. In the beginning, The Pile had no name, and only remembered that it came from a pair of socks. The Creator had worn The Pile’s foundational form on an excursion and then thrown them onto a platform of sorts, where The Pile stayed until the next piece came along– a pair of shorts. The Pile grew and grew, by bits and bobs, sometimes the Creator’s pieces, sometimes pieces from other Creators, sometimes clean and most of the time not, throughout its life because what was time to a pile of laundry? In truth, The Pile did not know what socks or laundry was until it heard the Creator say these words, while burrowing within The Pile. “Where are my socks?” says the Creator, furiously digging, “I have weeks of laundry here, I should have some somewhere.” There are many of these things within The Pile by this point, so The Pile gently adjusts itself so that two of its pieces emerge at the top. This is how life goes for The Pile– it learns words from the Creator, words like “fuck” and “shirt” and “Devon” and “Lyme” then it learns phrases like “where is my fucking shirt” and “Is this Devon’s or Lyme’s?” Devon is another Creator and there are some of Devon’s items within The Pile, but Devon is more aware than Creator when it comes to The Pile. Devon, while helping the Creator look within The Pile, notices The Pile’s helpfulness first. “Misha, have you noticed that when you mention specific things out loud, like ‘socks’ or ‘that blue sweater of Lyme’s that smells like smoke,’ it shows up at the top of the pile faster? And when you say thanks, it shows up even faster the next time you look for stuff?” And thus, The Pile learned that the Creator is also a Misha. Another Creator comes forward with creatures that are not Creators nor are they part of The Pile. The other Creator, who wears not many items, refers to the new creatures as Octavius, Bartleby and Eustace, and they are relatively charming company. The four of them commiserate about how slow the Creators are in acknowledging mutual sentience, except for Eustace, who is barely sentient, to be honest, and has managed, through no fault of The Pile, to slowly start suffocating himself with The Creator Misha’s sweater. It is an ordeal to free him because The Pile does not have arms, but it is resolved and Eustace lives. The Creatures and The Pile come to an agreement to never leave Eustace unsupervised near Beings Without Arms. Life is not all negotiations with Creatures and unearthing items for the Creator Misha– every so often The Creator Misha leaves for a period of time, and thus other Creators appear to attend to the location. One of them is very large, easily as big as The Pile with less hair than The Creator Misha and the Creator Devon and The Creator Lyme, but oddly also has articles within The Pile. This Creator stares at The Pile, only to say, “What the fuck?” The Pile knows this phrase– The Creator Misha uses it frequently for many things, and so does the Creator Lyme whenever the Creator Lyme sees how large The Pile has gotten. It is a phrase of pride and joy, The Pile knows. “These are some of my shirts,” The Large Hairless Creator says. But how can these be Hairless Creator’s shirts when The Creator Misha has helped The Pile grow with them? This is a complexity rivaling Eustace’s attempted self-strangulation, and The Pile does not notice until the Hairless Creator reaches towards it. This cannot be tolerated without Creator Misha’s support, and so The Pile moves its items very slowly and very menacingly, wrapping sweaters, shorts, and pants around the limbs of The Hairless Intruder. The Hairless Intruder is large, but the Pile is made of multitudes and can move them independently. It is not long before Creator Devon’s sweatpants are slowly wrapped around The Hairless Intruder’s neck. “What the fuck!” The Hairless Intruder says again, this time with no joy. The shirts remain within The Pile, and the Hairless Intruder backs away, slowly. Soon after, the Creator Lyme appears with the Hairless Intruder and The Pile learns new phrases- “Living Creature,” and “Tried strangling me!” and “DID IT COME FROM THE GAMES?” The Creator Misha comes back, and they are not the same. They burrow into The Pile and stay for a long time. The Pile readjusts and brings The Creator Misha’s favorite items– the Creator Lyme’s blue sweatshirt that smells of smoke, the Creator Devon’s softest t-shirts, these are the items that The Pile knows The Creator Misha needs. They stay this way, with The Pile readjusting to provide a soft, warm place for The Creator Misha. Creator Lyme appears, and sits within The Pile as well. They are silent and still, and The Pile in its generosity, unearths a soft sweatshirt that The Creator Lyme has also worn. The Creator Lyme watches the movement carefully, with lines appearing between their eyes similar to lines in fabric. They do not speak of “The Games,” whatever they may be. They are silent until The Creator Lyme says, “You know, a few of us think your pile of laundry is sentient.” The Creator Misha burrows deeper within The Pile and mumbles, “oh you mean Jeremy? Yeah, they’re great.“

I may or may not have made an incorrect quote page for your THG universe...

Some of these involve characters that were never in the same universe interacting and often isn't true to canon. It's really just based on The Vibes I get from them.

These were originally just for me, so I unfortunately didn't record the source books/shows/posts they are from.

Of course, no pressure to post this if that's not your thing! Just a thing I made for you/your friends who write in this universe.

Eibhlin: So, Marius is going out of town this weekend and wanted to know if we could take care of his baby.

Claudius: Whoa, whoa, whoa! That is a big responsibility. What do we know about children?

Alec: I'm leaving now.

Claudius, passing Alec his bag: I swear you'd lose your head if it wasn't screwed on.

Claudius, to Eibhlin: I don't know the first thing about taking care of a child.

Claudius: Where's your jacket? It's cold outside.

Selene: Lost it.

Claudius: Here, take mine.

Claudius, to Eiblin: Kids are a lot of work.

----------------------------------------------------------

Brin:Are you a cuddler?

Nero: I’ve killed multiple people. I’m known for being a machine of death and darkness.

Brin:

Nero: God yes, please hold me.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Alec: Wait, how did you know I was going to propose?

Jake: Creed hasn’t been able to look at me without crying for a month

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Marius: I like this whole “good cop, bad cop” act you have going on

Selene: It’s not an act, it’s just I’m mean and Dash isn’t.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Nero & Callista sitting together in jail*

Calli: So who should we call to bail us out?

Nero: I’d say Adessa, but I honestly feel safer in jail.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Selene: Crying is really annoying, you know

*Alec sniffles*

Selene, sighing: Okay, who do I need to beat the shit out of?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Eibhlin intimidating someone/blowing things up*

Everyone: She’s so scary wtf

Claudius: Yeah, but like she’s so pretty-

(I find it both hilarious and very on-brand that most of the times Claudius stops to admire/study Eibhlin, it’s when she’s being Scary Eib™)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Lyme: What if they start shooting? How am I supposed to run in a dress?

Brutus: Holy shit! What kind of dinner parties have you been to?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Eibhlin: Claudius, I’m so happy I could kiss you!

Claudius: *nervous laughter* uh.... neat!

Later...

Claudius, laying face down on his bed: I can’t believe I said ‘neat’, Lex! ‘Neat’! No one says ‘neat’ anymore! It isn’t neat to say ‘neat’ and I said it anyway because I’m a huge loser!

Electra: Don’t beat yourself up, D. Everyone gets nervous sometimes. Remember what happened when Rigel confessed to me?

Claudius: Didn’t you, like, thank him?

Electra:

Electra, staring off into the distance: I thanked him.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Sloane: *tries to create a sense of calm by lighting incense only to find out that the sticks were actually sparklers*

Sloane: This is painfully on-brand, actually.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

“I am death itself. I am the bringer of death, Cato stop laughing, my soul is as dark as the night’s sky- Cato I swear to God.” -Clove,probably

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Alec: Hey I heard you like bad boys.

Jake: Not really.

Alec: Oh thank god.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Creed: Selene is my best friend, and if I love her, it’s the way I would love a sister.

Alec: I‘m your brother, and if you looked at me the way you look at Selene, I would have to speak with our parents.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Brutus: Claudius! Enobaria and Eibhlin are fighting!

Claudius: Don't look at me! They both terrify me, I'll be cut down!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Nero, texting: you will machete through this

Nero: **make it

Nero: Fuck pls don't machete your way through this

Enobaria OR Callista, your pick: too late

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Person on the phone: Am I speaking to the head of the household?

Joseph, passing the phone to Adora: It's for you.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Eibhlin, jokingly: I should have Claudius kill you for that.

Claudius, peering around the corner: Who do I need to kill?

Eibhlin: Wh- no, I meant that in jest.

Claudius, pulling out a switchblade: No, who's bothering you?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Claudius: Making my way downtown

Claudius: Walking fast

Claudius: ...

Claudius: Walking slower so Eib can keep up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

“It has been a true pleasure to watch your distractingly childish friendship evolve into a distractingly childish courtship, and now into what I’m sure will be a distractingly childish marriage.”

-Ronan at Devon & Misha’s wedding

(I know Misha doesn’t actually want to get married, but this is all about the VIBES)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

“I would say get a room but yours is the same as mine, please try to remember that.” ~Alec to Creed & Selene (Victor!Creed AU)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Nero: You know, you can solve your problems without violence.

Lyme: OK, but consider I’m really, really good at violence

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Capitol News, throwing open door: You two ARE having sex!

Lyme: Really? Brutus, why didn’t you tell me? I would have put my book down.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Julia: Paul just texted me “I feel like you deserve the moon but all I can give you is a rock”

Joseph: If you don’t marry him, I will

(Sorry, the concept of the Joseph/Paul bromance is tooo funny to me)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Petra: You don’t think I can fight. Because I'm a girl.

Brutus: I don’t think you can fight because you’re wearing a massive wedding dress. For what it’s worth, I don’t think Devon could fight in that dress either.

Devon: Maybe not. But I would make a radiant bride.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a master key and a spare key for the village. Adessa has them both. When I asked, “What if you die? How will we get in the gates?”...She said, “If I’m dead, you all have been dead for weeks.”  -Nero, probably

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Someone: Hey what's your type?

Devon/Nero/Creed/Dash: Murderers, apparently.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Misha: Brutus, tell Devon that he's an idiot but I still love him.

Brutus:Tell him yourself.

Misha: We're in a fight.

Brutus: You're sitting in his lap??

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Electra: So umm... I'm having problems with a guy...

Claudius: Like his dead body won't fit in a bag kind of problems? Or you like him, kind of problems?

Electra: ...The second one.

Claudius: Oh, that’s too bad. I could have helped you with the first one.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Snow:Anything you say in the next 30 seconds is free…starting right now.

Ronan: I think you’re cocky. Arrogant. Bossy and pushy. You also have a god complex and don’t think of anyone but your damn self.

Snow: But I—

Ronan: But what? I still have 22 seconds and I am not done.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Selene:(slams open the door) THE BABY IS COMING!!!!!!!

Julia:(immediately jumps up) What baby?!

Creed:(rushes into the room behind Selene, carrying Alec in his arms)

Creed: Alec! Alec is the baby! Today’s his birthday!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Rigel: Tell me about the victors.

Ronan: Flint and Iris. They never show up in text. They’re...pretty much useless. But they make good coffee.

Rigel: Copy that.

Ronan: Now the good ones. Adessa is tough, smart, hard to read, and scary as hell.

[Flashback]

Adessa: Tell me who has me for Secret Santa.

Devon: No! That takes all the fun out of it.

[Adessa glares daggers at him.]

Devon: It’s Odin. He got you a scarf. It’s blue and ugly. I’ll make him return it.

Ronan: Brutus. He’s a grinder. Not our most brilliant victor, but he works harder than anyone else. He’s not the most physically… ...coordinated.

[Flashback, Brutus unwraps a muffin, then drops it on the ground.]

Brutus: Awww man! My muffin!

[As he picks it up, he smacks his head on a desk that’s too short for him.]

Brutus: Ow! My head! My muffin and my head!

Ronan: Petra. She gets underestimated because of her looks, so she’s always trying to prove she’s tough.

[Flashback, Petra puts hot sauce on her sandwich. She looks up to see Claudius watching her.]

Petra: You think I can’t handle this much hot sauce? I can handle way more than this. [She empties the hot sauce on her sandwich and takes a bite.]

Petra:(in agony) In... your... face.

Claudius: ...I didn’t say anything?

Rigel: Tell me about Artemisia and Devon.

Ronan: Oh, those two. Some of our most talented victors-- he likes grassroots projects and she loves feeding the press. The only puzzle they haven’t solved... is how to grow up.

Rigel: That’s very well put.

Ronan: I’ve talked a lot about those two in my mandated therapy sessions.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Creed:Oh no, she's hot.

Selene:Oh no, he's hot.

Alec: Oh no.

(Poor Alec suffering™ when they reconnect in the Victor!Creed AU)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Dash:[Puts his feet on the table] I heard you liked bad boys.

Selene:No?

Dash: [Takes his feet off the table] Good, that felt horrible.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Creed or Alec: You bit me!

Selene: Biting's excellent! It's like kissing. Only there's a winner.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Brutus: You don’t know how to kill this thing!

Lyme: I thought I might try violence.

Misha: Solid call.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Skylar:[Trying to catch grapes in his mouth] Lyme, what would you give me if I got this grape in your cleavage?

Lyme: A concussion.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Devon: You didn’t have a happy childhood :( ?

Misha:My favourite toy was a knife. You finish the puzzle.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

bb Misha: On a scale of one to ten how much trouble am I in?

Peacekeeper: Eight.

bb Misha: Oh, I can do better than that.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone: Happy birthday Brutus!!!

Brutus: Aw thanks guys

. . .

Brutus: Wait, is that it? No punchline? No joke? No announcement of doom-

Devon: Misha accidentally set your yard on fire

Brutus: There it is.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Devon: Will you marry me?

Misha: Wow, uh, be right back.

Misha: *sprints away*

Misha:*texting Lyme* Come pick me up, kids are drinking alcohol.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Selene: I’m going to make a deal with you.

Kit: What kinda deal?

Selene: I’ll let you play with my sword if you promise not to tell our parents I gave you twelve cookies and said fuck four...five times.

Kit: I’ll take that offer. Plus interest. I also get to play with the knife.

Selene: Fine. Deal.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Nero: Violence doesn’t solve everything.

Lyme: That’s because you're not hitting hard enough.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

“Creed wants to be a victor when he grows up to protect and honour his district and country. Alec wants to become a doctor so he can help sick kids. Our last child, Selene, wants to be a porcupine so she can stab people with her butt.” ~The Sewards & Valents

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Eibhlin, breaking down Brutus’s door at 3am: I have a.. stop screaming it’s me. I have a new update for the electrical grid .

--------------------------------------------------------------------

“I’m very sorry I hurt your feelings by calling you stupid. I honestly thought you knew.” -Adessa

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyme: Did you really have to stab him?

Misha: You weren't there. You didn't hear what he said to me.

Lyme: What did he say?

Misha: What are you gonna do, stab me?

Lyme: ...that's fair.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Enobaria: Is it still murder if I give them a heads up?

Nero: I think that's called a threat.

Snow: Something you'd like to say, dear?

Adessa: Oh, there are several things I would like to say-

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Misha: You know what? Fuck you! Unshrinky your dinks.

Devon: No! My dinks!

Brutus: What the hell is your generation on?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Jake, texting Sara:IM RREALLY DRUNK AND I MESSED UP SOME HOT GUY WALKED INTO THE PARTY AND I YELLED DIBS

Alec, texting Selene: LENE I CAME THROUGH THE DOOR AT THE PARTY AND A GUY YELLED DIBS

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Brutus: I would never say this to Lyme’s face...

Brutus: ...but I consider her my closest friend and I treasure her presence.

Emory and Devon, horrified: Why... why wouldn’t you say that to her face????

---------------------------------------------------------------------

*In the Capitol during District Upsidedown*

Petra: You said things couldn't get worse!

Ronan: Yes, well...apparently I'm not imaginative enough.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Trainer: What the hell happened?

Jason(with a black eye): Selene threw a shoe at my face!

Trainer: Lachlan is that true?

Lachlan: Kind of? Jason was making fun of my shoes and Selene thought he couldn’t see them clearly so she gave him a closer look.

Selene (leaning back on her chair, bored): Yep, sure did. And I’d do it again.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Devon: Truth or dare?

Misha: Dare

Devon: I dare you to kiss the prettiest girl in this room.

Devon: Just note, I charitably said “girl” because let’s be honest, I’d smoke all of you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyme: Now, remember to act surprised by the audience.

Claudius: How does that mean anything when I was forced to go?

Lyme: What did I say about pointing out the meaninglessness of everything?

Claudius: ... Not to.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Devon: One time Callista came over here. All she did was lie seductively over the piano and feed herself grapes. I don’t really understand that woman, but I admire her lifestyle.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

[After Lyme gets shot]

Brutus: What’s your status?!

Lyme: My status, Brutus, is extremely annoyed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Misha: Claudius/Brutus, I think you should play the role of my father.

Brutus: I don’t want to be your father.

Misha: That’s perfect. You already know your lines.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Julia: What are you? Two?

Paul: Yeah, two heads taller than you

Julia: *deep breath*

*5 minutes later*

Julia: OPEN THE DAMN DOOR, YOU COWARD!

Paul: I WAS JUST JOKING!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

*Creed, Alec, and Selene against an enemy*

Creed: We are going to defeat you with the power of friendship!

Selene: And this knife I found!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Misha:*pitches an idea*

Devon, impressed: Huh, there might be something here!

Brutus, horrified: Yeah, a lawsuit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Callista: I’d like to offer you moral support, but I have questionable morals.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Marius: Rigel can't go because he's injured.

Rigel: I'm not injured, I was lightly stabbed.

Marius: I'm sorry, you were STABBED?!

Rigel: Lightly stabbed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Misha’s mother: You know you missed your father's funeral... by two years.

Misha: Well, last time I talked to him he said, "I'll see you in hell, girl" so I figured we had something on the books.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Alec, to someone giving him crap for being a “soft” doctor: I’m an ex-career doctor. Which means I can break every bone in your body while naming them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

*Claudius & Eibhilin sitting together in jail*

Claudius: So who should we call to bail us out?

Eibhlin: I’d say Beetee, but I honestly feel safer in jail.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a master key and a spare key for our homes. Adora and Julia have them both. When we asked, “What if you die? How will we get into the house?”....They said, “If we’re dead, you both have been dead for weeks.”  -Joseph and Paul, probably

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Finnick: Why would you give a knife to a child???

Claudius: Noah felt unsafe

Annie: Now we feel unsafe!

Claudius: I'm sorry

Claudius: Would you like a knife?

Thoughts on Suzanne Collins writing a HG-prequel set during the 10th Hunger Games?

(thank you for being the only person on this hellsite who can do math, anon)

I am tentatively interested? but wary 

Previously Collins had avoided any expanded universe cash-grabs, so I hope that this one is an exception not because her publisher is pushing her to make more money, but because she has something to say about dictatorship and the gradual desensitization to the rise of fascism in society. (No reason…) 

My other hope for this book is that it is not about the Hunger Games. Obviously they will be a background element (the 10th anniversary will be an Event no matter what) but I would love to see the world around the Games, rather than having yet another survive-the-Arena story. This seems more in line with the few hints she’s given us, and I for one am ecstatic about this idea.

[kawuli]

I am also both interested and wary because I have Thoughts about how the world of Panem works and if those get contradicted I will be somewhat annoyed.

But also I can just ignore the bits that are Incorrect and keep anything I like, so it could be cool.

[lorata]

That is ALSO a very real fear! There is like a … statute of limitations for new content in fandoms, in a way? Where for a while I desperately want more, but then after a time it’s like, no we’re good, I’ve Made It Myself, Thanks, You Can Go, and after too long any new content you’re desperately holding your breath in the hopes it doesn’t break your entire sandcastle. I don’t THINK anything I have around Year 10 is particularly load-bearing, so I should be okay? but even so. (but lol. if Collins was like, “I’m going to write a book about District 2’s Career Program” I would be like OH NO)

I have ludicrously specific thoughts about Panem’s history, so I’m definitely in Camp Wary. I’m certainly not going to go back and retcon what I’ve written, but I also worry it will be harder for me to add more (i.e. write stories) if there are explicit new elements of canon that are in direct contradiction to what I’ve built in my head.  For example, Lumina’s backstory could very well get Jossed, which I’m afraid would negatively affect my ability to be creative in this fandom? (whispers: oh hey pen how many centuries has it been since you wrote some thg?)

I know District 2 are your babies XD but how do you feel about Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch and Gale?

YOU get therapy, and YOU get therapy, YOU ALL GET THERAPY

like I realize I’m being facetious but also

someone please get them real therapists

and maybe like …… a dog? or a succulent, if that’s too hard? and oh, I don’t know, how about nice beach houses in District 4 or a ranch in District 10 or like

anywhere

but shipping them off to District 12

which is covered in the skeletons of their people and is STILL

ON

FIRE

burning coal mines do not just stop being on fire District 12 is literally a hellmouth and Plutarch is like lol it’s fine they’ll be fine just send them back nbd

(ftr I do not ship any of these people with anyone else in this group. I ship all of them with healthy coping mechanisms, sleep, distance, space for grief, a decent support network, appropriate responsibility for actions taken, actual nature, and THERAPY)

therapy therapy therapy therapy therapy

To be fair, Plutarch shipped Gale to District 2. Where I am sure he will get on with the locals like an endless raging coal mine fire.

The accident when I was a kid, used to think it was God’s will… He made each and everyone of us with a purpose didn’t he? A reason for being… Then why did he put the devil in me, why do I feel it in my heart and my soul calling to be let out?
