Finnick X Annie - Blog Posts

There is a possibility that Annie volunteered for her games. I saw someone talk about this on tik tok and I thought it was interesting. Annie is from 4, a career District, so there is the possibility of her training her entire life, her volunteering, her going into the games, and her idea of glory quickly shattering once she saw her district colleague be horribly death. she went mad because that's a very traumatic thing to witness, but one thing that might have played into her madness was having this idea of glory being stripped away revealing the reality of the games. After seeing the games in such a romanticised way her entire life, just to realise how ruthless they actually are, destroying her perception of reality. (Since she would have trained her entire life for the games)

Finnick s character is so sad, I saw someone talking about and they where so right, because finnick won his games by having lots and lots of sponsorships right? But sponsors know what happen to tributes after the games, so finnick only won his games because enough people wanted to prostitute him at 14. And now I add this, sponsors where very difficult to come that year for other tributes, so we can either assume that no one was sponsoring other tributes or that sponsorships where very expensive that year, if it was the latest, sponsors wanted to prostitute finnick so bad at the age of 14 they gave him one of the most if not the most expensive "gift" in hunger games history (plus plenty of other things) in a year that the price of sponsorships was all time high. The amount of money and desperation this people where putting on this 14 year old just because in the future they knew what was going to happen to him.

here’s an Odesta for the first time in months

HI! I've been busy with work and other projects, but I really missed drawing my two favorites so Here's a sketch of Finnick and Annie giggling over something only they find funny

Not too close.

Bonus: Annie reassuring him about it post reunion

I was looking at my drawing I did of Finnick from a few days ago and thought the random stray hair highlights I added actually looked more like gray hairs. And then I couldn't shake the idea of (handsome, darling of The Capitol) Finnick going gray at 24 from all the stess, bad diet, lack of light, etc that he went through at the beginning of Mockingjay

"...I had to forgive Finnick for his role in the conspiracy that landed me here. He, at least, has some idea of what I'm going through. And It takes too much energy to stay angry at someone who cries so much." -Mockingjay, pg 12

Lazy Summer Morning

The ending they deserved :(

it’s so funny to me that that “biggest” odesta fans doesn’t even like finnick that much

Though I do hate the belief that Annie was a weak tribute, I dislike how much people try to erase any trauma that Annie received from the games

Yes Annie was more than the “mad girl from D4” but she DID get ill and traumatized. Not acknowledging what the Capitol did to her or trying to say she was the same afterwards is just untrue. Annie wasn’t the same afterwards (Johanna even says this in Mockingjay) and why should she? She wasn’t the same girl who entered the arena and the Capitol took it away. Why try to sugar coat what the Capitol did to her?

It’s just like trying to say Katniss ear didn’t totally became deaf or Peeta leg getting cut off wasn’t as bad as we think it was

It also just make Annie a stronger character because of her overcoming her trauma and knowing what to do when she’s “hysterical” while it’s still apart of her
