A drumroll began from the far side of the platform, triggering a cry from the front of the crowd. Coriolanus shifted his gaze to locate the source. A young woman with olive skin and long black hair rose above the mass into the air as a man tried to carry her off, but she desperately fought to move forward, shrieking, “Arlo! Arlo!” Already, Peacekeepers were closing in on her.

The voice had an electrifying effect on Arlo, as his face registered first surprise, then horror. “Run!” he screamed. “Run, Lil! Run! Ru — !” The clap of the trapdoor release and subsequent twang of the rope cut him off midword, drawing a gasp from the crowd. Arlo dropped fifteen feet and seemed to die instantly.

— The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Suzanne Collins (2020)

Movies are notorious for not telling the important details (and I can’t blame them. Without narration, you lose a lot of details)

But FYI the hanging tree is not about Coriolanus. It’s about Arlo Chance and Lil

#you see them in the movie but they don’t tell you much beyond that #arlo chance #the hunger games #the hanging tree #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #tbosas #thg #hunger games #coriolanus snow #I keep seeing people say it’s about Coriolanus but LGB wrote it about Arlo’s execution & how he yelled out for Lil to run #bosas #lucy gray baird #I can go into more detail about it with quotes and stuff if it’s wanted 🤷‍♀️#I probably will even if it’s not wanted lol

Everyone's Everlark this Odesta that but hear me out: the OG couple, Arlo + Lil

Get yourself a man whose last words will be directed to you, who even in his last moments when he's unable to physically protect you will still try to protect you, save you, shield you from the same evil that got him killed. Who loves you more than life.

And get yourself a woman who will offer everything to save you. Everything, including her life. Who will defend you to the point it costs her her life even though she knew the repercussions. Who loves you more than life.

#my favourite underrated babies #tbosas #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #meta #tbosas meta #arlo chance #lil #the hanging tree #give them the love they deserve

"Mockingjay", Chapter 9

Part 1: The Ashes

Chapter 9: No one tells Katniss about Peeta's second interview. Not even Gale. She takes Finnick out to the woods to talk, and he is more generous to Gale than Fandom is because he suggests Gale wants to tell her privately. Katniss shoots a buck. Katniss worries about Peeta, mostly, but also about the fact that she doesn't trust Coin, Plutarch, et al. She fights with Gale. Cressida wants footage from District 12. Plutarch tells them the rebels have taken Districts 3 and 11. Haymitch doesn't come. Gale has to talk about the firebombing. They hike to the lake. Katniss shows Pollux a mockingjay and he asks her to sing. She starts having flashbacks to Rue and decides to sing "the Hanging Tree.'

-- Katniss said she had taken down three deer in the first book, I think? So this is numero 4. I also think it's cool that Finnick just "carries" it himself because bucks can weight like 300 pounds? That's like three Magses and he's been in the hospital for several weeks but is apparently not skipping leg day.

-- Gale got his communicuff back. Is this a reward for lying (or lying by omission) to Katniss? Alma Coin is trying to lure Gale into her van with communicuffs. And he's falling it even though they are obviously stupid. (I am mixing my metaphors about what Coin is doing to Gale, but I think it's clear she is trying to woo him in a non-sexual way. Make him feel special and part of something bigger than himself. Originally I think it was for info on Katniss who we know Coin doesn't trust.)

-- It's the return of Lucy Gray Baird to the lake, 65 years later. It's no surprise to me that memories of Rue and the Arena are what make Katniss sing. What it brings back are memories of her Father, who we assume was her connection to Lucy Gray.

Quotes:

At that moment, his communicuff starts beeping. "There she is. Better run. You have things to tell her." For a moment, real hurt registers on his face. Then cold anger replaces it. He turns on his heel and goes. Maybe I have been too spiteful, not given him enough time to explain. Maybe everyone is just trying to protect me by lying to me. I don't care. I'm sick of people lying to me for my own good. Because really it's mostly for their own good. Lie to Katniss about the rebellion so she doesn't do anything crazy. Send her into the arena without a clue so we can fish her out. Don't tell her about Peeta's propo because it might make her sick, and it's hard enough toget a decent performance out of her as it is.

Katniss has so little agency, she trusts Gale because he is her best friend. She just wants someone to be on her side. But Gale has sort of chosen the rebellion over her at this point, and that understandable. The whole country is being oppressed but it is lonely for Katniss, especially with Peeta gone.

"If you're both up for that," says Cressida, looking closely at my face.

Bless you, C.

I used to think the murderer was the creepiest guy imaginable. Now, with a couple of trips to the Hunger Games under my belt, I decide not to judge him without knowing more details. Maybe his lover was already sentenced to death and he was trying to make it easier. To let her know he'd be waiting. Or maybe he thought the place he was leaving her was really worse than death. Didn't I want to kill Peeta with that syringe to save him from the Capitol? Was that really my only option? Probably not, but I couldn't think of another at the time.

We now know "The Hanging Tree" was inspired by the hanging of Arlo Chance and his girlfriend, Lil, who is also hanged, but some of it also mirrors the relationship between Coriolanus and Lucy Gray. The met at the Hanging Tree. They tried to flee. Perhaps the only way for those two to truly be "together" was for them both to be hanged? And maybe, based on how bad things have gottne in the intervening years, that would've been the best ending?

... back then I could memorize almost anything set to music after a round or two.

Maude Ivory also has this ability. Actually she can remember anything after hearing it once. I don't think that's a genetic trait though? Does anyone know?

That's when the mockingjays begin their rendition of "The Hanging Tree." In their mouths, it's quite beautiful. Conscious of being filmed, I stand quietly until I hear Cressida call, "Cut!"

That's a wrap, people. The show's not over until the mockingjay sings.

[Cutting for length]

Did anyone else lose their whole mind as soon as Laura took the jacket off or am I just obsessed with both fashion and women?

Vy: Come on, sit down and eat. I will serve you.

Fannar took out a chair, motioning for Arlo to come sit, holding back the now millions of questions they would like to ask their grandfather.

Fannar: Here, have a seat and we can eat. - they gave their mom a smile. - My mom is a pretty good cook.

Arlo sat down by Fannar. He felt small right now, eyes on the four of them. He flinched once Vy got up and started serving food for Arlo and set it in front of Arlo who stared at it silently.

Vy: You should eat. Sharing a heart is a difficult process. Your body has gone through hell, your spirit too. I am here to make sure nothing happens to my son, but I can't guarantee it won't happen to you if you're weak...

Arlo nodded. He did not wish for Fannar to go through the pain of sharing a heart all over again for it to fail. They had already gone through that process, and keeping the heart hostage in a box had nearly killed Fannar. He wondered if it had left scars, it most likely did. If it left on their wrists how many more scars did it have hidden under their long sleeves and turtlenecks? Almost as if able to know what Arlo was thinking about Vy made sure to add.

Vy: They're scarred enough as it is.

He smiled again as Arlo suddenly sat on a chair in front of him, notebook in hand ready to take notes. The two only stopped when Fannar came in to tell them that dinner was ready.

Fannar: Uhm.. What are you two up to? Arlo: You did not mention your uncle is a sage! And he knows potions! River: I think I’ll send my sister over to help him more. Fannar: -chuckles- sounds good, but for now, how about some dinner? You have been in there for two hours. River: Sounds good, right Arlo, we can talk more potions later. Arlo: Ok. -he walked over to Fannar and took his hand.- I like your uncle.

River just chuckled as they came out to the others. Syra discussed something with Flynn, while Chris was helping serve the food. Fannar watched them all, in a way wishing they could keep them all here as he had missed all this. They knew they could not, but perhaps now they could have some visits more often. Seeing Arlo sit with his uncle and chat made them wish that it would be something like that with his mom, but he could not see his mother ever giving Arlo that chance.

It ended up being quite late at night, before they at Chris’s suggestion tested to just open the portal right outside the cottage. Arlo interrupted them, directing them to a small shrine, where he believed it would be much easier. And, much like Nat had mentioned, it did indeed work just as well.

River: You just call us on the crystal if you want some help okay, I’ll talk to Meadow about stopping by as well with Flynn so that the actual Sage of potions can teach him even more.

Fannar: We would love that, and should you want to visit, you're always welcome to. Flynn: We will. -they hugged their twin.- Next time I am sure Emil will come too. I can guess he would like to visit some people while here though. Fannar: Anytime.

Shoutout to @toondandy for convincing me to give “Arlo the Alligator Boy” a watch.

I previously dismissed it, thinking it was gonna be cliche/just for little kids - and yeah the story was perhaps a bit cliche, but the characters were all super lovable and fun, the animation was SPECTACULAR, and the songs were really good as well! ^v^

So yeah, while it didn’t completely blow me away like “Wish Dragon” or some of the other Netflix exclusives, it was still a fun time and I’m so glad I didn’t miss out on this cute movie ^v^ Can’t wait to give the series a watch when I can!

#personal crap #arlo the alligator boy #also after hearing his VA’s full singing abilities through Ansel #it’s frankly even more of a tragedy that TGAMM Jeff hasn’t gotten a full song/chance to sing #I hope the series gives a bit more focus to Bertie. I wanna know more about her and see her kick ass #also wtf was wrong with that fish man lol. I thought Tony was gonna be the jerk of the group but nah. fish man definitely is
