as i was watching the ballad movie last night, my sister leaned over to me during the scene where jessup rabidly attacks lucy gray and said “so this is where snow got the idea to hijack peeta” and while that’s probably not exactly correct because doubtful old coryo kept this exact moment filed away for 65 years on the off chance he may want to use it for inspo, i couldn’t help but feel like visually it created quite a parallel. jessup chasing after the girl who cared for him, who refused to abandon him despite the arena and tried to keep him alive despite his obvious injury. i definitely saw the resemblance, between two rabid boys and the two songbirds who cared for them (to obviously varying degrees).
only difference is peeta didn’t stay rabid. just like the two girls, peeta was also a survivor.

can we stop babying lucy she’s not some little girl who doesn’t know anything, shes smart and self assured, sure she’s naive/sheltered, not in her maturity or intellect but rather her knowledge of a post war wasteland. shes not gonna cry if cooper tells her to shut up shes gonna lecture him about how his words hold meaning or some bs.. like guys shes not a child, shes a grown ass woman.
