katniss in book 3: my childrens playground is built on dead bodies and bones, i never wanted children but peeta convinced me, i will never heal from what happened to me. the end 

me reading that shit at 15:

[prettypinkdork]

I mean, she did explicitly want children. She was just determined to never have them because she didn’t feel it was fair to have kids who might be forced to enter the Hunger Games and after her involvement in the games she feared kids would be used against her. Her having children at the end means she thinks they can have a future.

Edit: The Hunger Games are about a world where violent revolution was nessecary and justified but the war was not glorious and caused pain and trauma to people involved. In having children the epilogue tells us that Katniss believes the revolution made things better even though she will always be scarred from the experience.

Reblogging this vers bc ppl in the notes have the coldest fucking takes the ending of mockingjay was Susan Collins realizing what you, the reader, needed to see was the fact Katniss’ trauma doesnt just magically heal or go away Katniss doesn’t just get the perfect life with a husband and two kids but rather her and Peeta spend years healing and working through their traumas and helping each other recover in a very realistic way and then she chooses to have kids because she finally feels like not only will her and Peeta have futures but that their kids wont be in danger merely from existing. Hunger Games has such a good and realistic portrayal of heavy topics and shows a great deal about handling depression, anxiety, and PTSD and the ppl in the notes somehow missed these fact the end knows you don’t want to just see everything be magically okay. Like if you want a shitty epilogue that doesn’t acknowledge that recovering from something like this isnt perfect and takes time just go read Deathly Hollows again lol

do you ever just write a single, beautiful line and feel really proud of yourself. then you look five paragraphs down, and there’s a sentence like, “I walked and my legs were walking” and wonder what in the goddamn heck happened

[serotnin]

“what’d you do today” oh, y'know, just isolated myself from everyone and slept bc existing in general is unbearable

The worst part of human adulthood is being your own zookeeper

[soaringsearingphoenix]

Like... i have to make sure my meals are nutritionally balanced... i have to make sure that the space i occupy is big enough, and interesting enough, and provide enrichment to make up for the lack of novelty... i have to make sure i get exercise... i'm not qualified for this

“i grew out of my dinosaur phase” shut up. your dinosaur phase isn’t something you “grow out” of. real adults know that dinosaurs are cool as fuck.

For anyone in the process of leaving the Mormon church

I’m proud of you. This was likely a hard, emotionally taxing decision. You’ll get out, you’ll be okay.

It will get better, and I’m here of you need to talk with someone.
