You know, I actually really appreciate that Collins chose to describe Katniss as having brown skin but her sister Prim as whitepassing. It's nice to see a depiction of a mixed family actually, realistically differing in appearance for once. Genetics can be weird y'all. Mixed kids can range from one parent to another and are definitely not always (in fact rarely) a perfect middle blend of both.

Take one look at my art blog and you'll know, I love the interpretation of Katniss as indigenous with brown skin. However, I think people give Suzanne Collins a little too much praise for it? Yes the text can be read that way, with so many details (neighborhoods mysteriously segregated based on looks and income, Katniss and her father's knowledge of native plants and animals, as well as many other things I can't think of off the top my head) pointing towards such an interpretation. The text supports it! But I truly think it was an accident on Suzanne's part. Otherwise, why would she continue allowing her books to be whitewashed? Why would she leave descriptions of looks out of SOTR almost entirely? Even the new play has a white Katniss.

TLDR: Charlie loves brown Katniss and the POC Seam, but I don't think Suzanne Collins should get the credit for it

Just finished reading the Hunger games trilogy.

I wanted to capture the book versions, but the film adaptations still have an iron grip on me, so you might see some similarities

had a dream i was katniss and id been reaped for a third hunger games (the arena was like fields and valleys), and i was understandably rly upset. then, during the games (they had cameras/interviewers in the arena) they interviewed me and i was just saying how tired i was to be here again and then they told me peeta was going to be a new addition. he hadn’t been reaped but the were throwing him in for fun. and then i got so upset at the prospect of not being able to just let myself be killed because i needed to help him survive that i started sobbing, which i think is a very katniss response

hello! i’m currently in a really tough financial spot as I write my masters dissertation, so i’ve set up a small ko-fi as a last resort to help cover basic living costs while i’m studying. my university doesn’t allow students to get jobs alongside their studies and my student loans barely cover my rent.

if you’ve enjoyed my writing or my ramblings before and happen to be in a position where you’re able to support, it would genuinely mean the world to me. i would really like to do drabbles commissions in exchange for support but the truth is that at the moment i barely have any time to write alongside conducting research and writing my diss.

if you’re not able to donate, reblogging this would help me reach more people and i’d be incredibly grateful ❤️
