Its Haunting Honestly

I’m not typically one for contributing to head-cannons, but I do have one for TBOSAS that I’m willing to stick by: Lucy Gray is the reason they have someone from the Capital read the names.

Snow saw what happened when the games were rigged to settle personal scores, and he knew exactly how the scales were tipped (Lucy Gray even stresses that the reaping was “bad business” instead of plain bad luck). I don’t think he would implement this change for any noble reason to stop this kind of infighting, but rather so any rigging was done on his part rather than left up to the people of the districts. No one else could have a last minute revenge like Lucy Gray to stand out or remind him of her.

In conclusion: Lucy Gray and the Mayor’s blatant rigging of the 10th reaping are why Effie and her predecessors had to come to 12 every year

OKOK SO I WAS SCROLLING THROUGH AN HP CONFESSIONS ACC ON HERE YESTERDAY, I REALIZED SMT AND I HONESTLY MIGHT BE STUPID CUZ I HAVENT NOTICED THIS BEFORE BUT OTHERS MIGHT HAVE??? IDK

It's not called "The Marauders Map" because James and his group were called "The Marauders".

It's because it can be used BY a marauder.

LOOK AT THE APOSTROPHE PLACEMENT

A marauder is a person who raids...and this map shows you EVERY PLACE AT HOGWARTS, EVERY PERSON WITHIN IT AND WHAT THEYRE DOING

IT COULD BE USED TO 'RAID' A SPECIFIC PLACE AT HOGWARTS IDK

AKA USED FOR A MARAUDER.

i am loving the resurgence of fun pop music

thank you miss chappell roan and sabrina carpenter for being the pop girlies of the decade

serious post now but i think katniss not having that many similarities to lucy gray makes the whole situation so much more interesting. katniss isn’t a performer, she doesn’t put herself out there, she’s antisocial and paranoid and awkward—but she still rebels against snow. she still bows at the end of a performance. she still honors rue even in death. she still sings lucy gray’s song.

what haunts snow isn’t how they may or may not share an appearance. what haunts him is how katniss picks up exactly where lucy gray’s defiance against the capitol—against him—left off.

noticing trends in your own ocs personalities can make you stare at your keyboard like. okay motherfucker take it to the therapist office not the toyhouse profile.
