Peeta: Haymitch was sitting next to me during a daily meeting and offered me a sip of his drink because I mentioned that I was thirsty…

Peeta: I was not fucking expecting to take a sip of vodka cranberry at 9am, y’all.

SAVE A HORSE RIDE A COWBOY!!!

You wished for this

there’s something so gutwrenching about the fact that the female characters in obsession have real dreams and wishes but never get the chance to see them realized, while both male characters waste their wishes on short-term selfish satisfaction. they were complex, free-spirited young women who just wanted to create art, and they were destroyed by a man determined to confine them to his superficial perception of them. nikki wanted to be a writer, sarah wanted to be a tattoo artist and now neither of them will get to be anything at all

I’ve commented on it several times over the years, but I’ve always been amazed at how many fans miss the fact that the other victors are Haymitch’s friends. This is stated multiple times in Catching Fire and Haymitch himself even confirms it at least once so it’s not just something Katniss thinks to herself.

The other victors are his friends.

It’s true that the book doesn’t specify which victors are his friends other than I believe Chaff. But the text does state friends in the plural. And if I’d had to guess which were his friends then I might have guessed that the people involved in this conspiracy to blow up the arena that Haymitch is also knee deep in would be pretty good candidates. So Beetee, Wiress, and Mags would all be good candidates.

So I guess while some people were surprised at their inclusion in SOTR, I was just sort of like … “okay, cool. This is how he meets some of his friends from Catching Fire.”

Shoutout to mags for using the force field to cook the nuts - she was always an icon

*Read SOTR; cry vigorously*

*Go and re-read the original trilogy*

*Notice all of the heartbreaking details*

*Cry again*

"I didn't ask the tributes what they wanted because the answer seemed so obvious. You want to live. But then I realized, there are many desires beyond that. Mine had to do with my district partner. Protecting him." Wiress offers, "I remember I didn't want to die at night. I didn't want to die in darkness. The thought terrified me." "So we'll ask you now, what do you want?" says Mags.

I love the insight this gives us into Mags's sacrifice in Catching Fire. In her first Games, she wanted to protect her district partner, but obviously, she wasn't able to do that. In the Quarter Quell, she gets the opportunity to sacrifice her life to protect the lives of her district partner, not to mention Katniss, Peeta, and Annie.

Wiress dies in daylight, out in the fresh air, singing one of her songs.

Even though they died in the Quell, they both had their desires fulfilled.

im sick of people saying they want a finnick book next, i have a few reasons why but i will explain in a second.

I want a mags book. i have so many reasons, one her character is pretty much a blank slate, not much was said of her in sotr, but in the og trilogy the only thing we get ab her is "she was a nice lady" and that leave so much room to actually develop a character. as well as its post bosbas so there is actually a very riveting idea of "now its a spectacle" in ballad, its made clear that mentors, as well as sponsers and interviews are new concepts, this is the year theyre trying to spice it up.

theres so much more room to actually add to the world, the concept of the hunger games, and how it went from torture and punishment to abuse and exploitation. snow would also have time to develop, he would absolutely have a hand in the games at this point as gal drags him back in before we get there. the idea of the victory tour will be introduced, something i dont think we see at all in either the book or the movie and would probably become a thing now that the games are actually becoming of interest to the capital again, and would be able to tie the promotional material used for catching fire that states she went on one. it can be an evaluation of what MAKES 4 a career because it wasnt at the time in ballad, and the districts as it stood so freshly after the war, which we never got the ability to see in ballad.

a book ab finnick would be disturbing, it wouldnt be possible to push past the abuse he would inevitably suffer, and his character was exploited to the extreme, and to make a book that would probably turn into a movie, just completely disregards why his character exists, and would exploit him as a character in the end. i love finnick and i love suzzane colins, but i dont think she is at the place to make this story. plus its a book for ya audiences and i dont know how you could possibly tone it down for actual teenagers without destroying his character.

long story short, mags would be the best possible character to make a book about from this point forward, i also think a book where district 12 doesnt win would shine a light on why its so important that it eventually did again. theres a chance to grow the world it exists in, the districts we don't get a chance to see, and an ability to shine a light on a character who became so integral to the series as a whole without focusing on the actual sexual assault of a child.

MAGS BOOK MAGS GAMES MAGS BOOK MAGS BOOK GIVE US MAGS GAMES
