beetee latier came up with one singular plan ever to defeat the hunger games and canonically tried to make it work TWICE despite the fact that it literally blew up in his face the first time.

this officially makes him the world’s most accurate fictional scientist because he HAS a favorite hypothesis that he IS going to make sure works even if it fucking kills him

Comparing Haymitch and Katniss' narrative styles is so funny to me because he's a yapper and she's a gatekeeper. He drops more lore on D12 in the first two chapters of SOTR than she does in the entire trilogy.

Haymitch is like "Yeah, so this person is related to this person who's related to this person and things are this way because of this and this thing actually came from here and this person is actually my best friend and also here's this extra tidbit of random info cause all my lore dropping comes with it's own additional bonus content and all my unnecessary commentary."

And Katniss is over here like "Tf do I care for if y'all know all the lore of District 12? I'm talking about my beautiful husband's beautiful eyelashes."

katniss in her narration: haymitch hates peeta and i. the only reason he keeps us around at all is out of some sick sense of obligation and pity. i wish he would just drop the act

haymitch in his narration: katniss and peeta are the only reasons i haven’t killed myself yet <3

*Before the Third Quarter Quell, during the first co-conspirators Victors meeting*

Johanna: fine we'll keep the girl alive how hard can it be

Haymitch: oh honey you think I drink for fun?

Finnick: listen it's just one tribute and half of us are in on it we can do it

Haymitch: uh no actually you need to keep both my tributes alive

Chaff: Haymitch I get you want to protect the boy but this is about something bigger we need to focus on the Mockingjay

Haymitch: oh no you're not getting it. If Peeta dies Katniss will kill everyone in that Arena and then herself

Finnick: come on Haymitch we know the whole romance thing is just an act

Haymitch:

Haymitch: you know what I'mma just let you guys figure out this one

*Later, five minutes into the Games, the second Finnick resuscitates Peeta while Katniss loses her marbles*

Finnick, softly but with feeling: fuck

Peeta: We need to prepare to fight to the death in the arena for the second year in a row. It’s time to spend every hour of the day pushing our bodies past the absolute limits training to go up against these hardened killers. Katniss, you can’t fuck around because I will be dying for you and you will be coming home. If I see you drink alcohol ever again I’m calling the police on you.

Katniss:

Katniss: but you couldn’t even give me a little kiss?

I wrap my arms tightly around his neck before he can order me to do push-ups or something. Instead he pulls me in close and buries his face in my hair. Warmth radiates from the spot where his lips just touch my neck, slowly spreading through the rest of me. It feels so good, so impossibly good, that I know I will not be the first to let go.

This is one of my favourite scenes from the book! Hope you love this as much as I do!
