Claire remembering Carmy’s nickname and knowing exactly what he was going to name the restaurant and Carmy not even remembering her name is top tier unintentional comedy
Busy thinking about how in The Hunger Games trilogy there is no chosen one trope and despite all the theories Prim wasn’t intentionally reaped (also because no totalitarian government with common sense would purposely nationally televise a girl with the influence to start an uprising against their oppression) Katniss Everdeen was a random face plucked from the masses of district twelve when she decided to volunteer for her sister at the reaping. She went into that arena so her little sister didn’t have to. She fought for her life again and again all whilst trying to keep Peeta alive just to find out they’d been lied to and someone had to die. So of course she was angry and of she course she said fuck you and fuck your games either we both go home or we both die and you have no victor. The Capitol obviously wasn’t thrilled when this happened and even less so when the districts saw it as an act defiance towards the Capitol and started rebelling and thus the Rebellion was sparked and soon after Katniss Everdeen became the face of it (even though she all she wanted was to save her sister and keep Peeta alive) and the Mockingjay was born. Because after all if a girl from district twelve of all of places could stand up to the Capitol what was stopping the districts from doing the same
Love this tiny little chef
Carmy and Richie’s height difference.
Last year for my fall undergrad thesis (2021), I illustrated dust jackets for Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games series. Each cover was meant to focus on the different arenas portrayed in the books alongside little details for avid readers. When lined up on a shelf, the book spines create on continuous city scene. For my thesis display, the book titles and author’s name were printed in reflective gold to stand out. A very fun project.

I love the idea that once Carmy makes it clear to everyone he doesn’t want to be with Claire, Richie and Fak immediately make it their job to get him and Syd together
Watcher entertainment making bad decisions mood board
We don’t appreciate the Women of The Bear nearly as much as we should (Syd, Tina and Nat specifically). They are carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders, running the restaurant, cleaning up every one’s messes, all the while being the most kind and caring people you’ve ever met when they have every right not to be
the hunger games brain rot is real but not in the sense that i'm having coherent thoughts, in the sense that im rotating all four books in my head like rotisserie chickens 24/7
Obsessed with the idea that Sydney had a celebrity crush on Carmy because she immediately fangirled over him when they first met (“I know who you are, you were the best cdc at the best restaurant in the U.S.”) and he made her the best meal she’s ever had and now they’re opening a restaurant together and falling in love
If you love me, give me hell
