OUTGROW IT

Sometimes I just can’t stop myself. So here’s a very rough comic in addition to my recent INSTAPANEM post ;)

I feel like I’m some Mellark family ambassador 😅 but again I just can’t stop drawing them.

MR. & MRS. MELLARK HEAD CANONS

Well, you asked about my headcanons about The Hunger Games parent generation. Here's the small part about Peeta’s family. If my English wasn't so terrible, I would have written a little fanfiction describing this scenes, and it would have taken much less time than these comics 😂. But I had to draw it all.

So the first scene takes place on the evening of the day when future Mrs. Everdeen leaves home and runs off to the Seam with Mr. Everdeen. The second scene unfolds after the broadcast of the 74th hunger games, when Peeta tells Katniss about how he fell in love with her.

The Night she left and The Night she came

Try Again

Now my thoughts:

I'm one of those people who doesn't think Mrs. Mellark is absolutely evil. In my head, she is like Joanna, not the most pleasant person for sure but she has her reasons through. So:

1. Mr. Mellark says he wanted to marry Katniss's mother, but she ran away with the coal miner. So, before she ran away, he still had some kind of hope to marry her and was unlikely to be in a relationship, let alone married. However, before the birth of the first Everdeen child, he manages to become a father twice, and the third son is born in the same year as Katniss. Somehow all this is pretty fast for a man who was hoping to marry another woman. This gave birth to the idea for the first scene: a quick, unexpected wedding with a girl he never thought would be his wife (and he married her the next day, yeah).

2. Mrs. Mellark (at least in my head) is very impulsive and sometimes doesn't pay attention to what she says, especially when she is hurt or angry. This translates into beating Peeta in the burned bread situation, her cruel words during goodbye session in the Justice Building (it seems to me that she was so angry with fate at that moment that there could be no talk of any sentimentality, and indeed she is not from those people who know how to support with words, she is a person of action). This impulsiveness, decisiveness and rationalism (be in the same position and both win from the marriage) are reflected in the first scene.

3. I don't think she beats her children on a regular basis. Impulsiveness, anger at the world, not the easiest life, her husband too soft compared to her tough character, three teenage sons - all this sometimes drives her crazy. And Mrs. Mellark is doing not so well with self-control.

4. I have two different theories about this generation in my head. Drawn one is where all these people (Mellarks, Everdeens, Donners, Abernathy) know each other and maybe used to be friends someday. So I don't think Mrs. Mellark didn't know whose daughter Katniss is. But also I think she didn't recognize Katniss that burned bread day. And if she did, she would give her bread herself. Yes, perhaps the worst they had, but she would (that sounds crazy, I know, I have rich imagination 😂).

5. About the reputation of the "witch". Here's what I think: The Mellarks own the only bakery in the poorest district, where someone is constantly starving to death. Imagine how many desperate people come to bakery doors every day? Mellarks themselves cannot afford fresh food or meat from the store. How many people have Mr. and Mrs. Mellark seen in a state of near death, but could not help without leaving their family to starve? Mr. Mellark seems to me to be a kind-hearted person, it is difficult situation for him. So Mrs. Mellark has taken on the role of a person who must make it clear that they simply have nothing to help the people who come to their doors. And the reputation of an evil bitch is very useful in this matter. Nobody will come to her. And no one will expect her family members to turn against her. Naturally, I'm not saying that this is faked and that at night she cries into her pillow because she yells at people all day. It is in her character. And at the same time, she had to become tougher and hard. First of all, she must think about the well-being of her family. Well, for me this is one of the reasons for her anger at the world, she lives in constant pain from the inconsistency of her life with those dreams that she had on the day depicted in the first scene.

6. I am sure that after Peeta’s return, things have improved in the Mellark family. Peeta often visits his family at the bakery, dines with them, writes farewell letters when they are not allowed to say everything in person before the quarter quell.

7. And I really think they love each other. Mr and Mrs Mellark I mean:)

This, of course, is not all my thoughts, but you are probably already tired of understanding my English, so for now I will stop. Share your thoughts please :)
