The scene was powerful in the book, but there was just something about watching reaper collect the bodies of the dead tributes in the arena. The way he removes the weapons from their hands, lays them out nicely, giving them the smallest bit of dignity in death. The contrast to the capitol gasping in shock as he pulls down the flag, not in rebellion, but in mourning. The way mourning in the hunger games IS an act of rebellion. “How are you going to punish me now?” The feed then immediately cutting to the news of the death of one capitol boy, whose death will be avenged upon those who had nothing to do with it. Only certain deaths are allowed to mean anything. God. Suzanne Collins knows what she’s doing.
NO WAIT ROB ARE YOU TELLING ME AZIRAPHALE HAD, ADMITTEDLY, THE WORST KISS IN RECORDED HISTORY AND HE WAS STILL LIKE "come back and do that again, please, right now"?????!?!??!
it’s probably been said before but there’s a poetic balance that the victor of the second quarter quell, where there were twice as many tributes, got to bring home two victors instead of one

it's been like four months since i last tried drawing anything so here's a sneak peek at something i'm working on (because i don't have enough wips as it is)
Here it is! The drawing I said would kill you all. I have been listening to Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac on a loop, thinking about Katniss and her grief. I saw a post floating around talking about hair being part of the grieving process, as well as my old drawing of Katniss with chopped hair after Prim's death. I just wanted to express a whole lot of pain. Then I saw a really good reference image on Pinterest, and the rest is history! Hope you all enjoy being hurt!
