Somethings up with my chess pieces bro why are they looking at each other like that
one of the most striking parts of sotr is the contrast between the capitol’s animalistic language vs haymitch’s association of nature with his loved ones.
on one hand, you have the dehumanizing language of the capitol towards the tributes—“piglets”, “claws”, “fur”, “paws.” on the other, sid is haymitch’s “rooster”, the district six kids are his “doves”, the gray rabbit is a reminder of his girl. even when wellie dies, haymitch goes from describing her gory death in human terms to that of a “headless baby chick.”
it’s just so fascinating to think of the natural world as a form of resistance, from the bird imagery to the districts’ plant names. the capitol does everything in its power to weaponize the natural world in the arena, to make the districts feel like animals, to create the illusion that they can control nature itself. but they all share the same planet, capitol or district. it’s a reminder of the shared humanity that the capitol tries to erase. so for the districts, to embrace nature is an act of rebellion in itself.

i think about ahsoka's "she was my friend" line too many times a day
(commission info // tip jar!)
something about haymitch (and his mentors) being aware of a victor prior to him, but no one knows her name… yet they all know she was there. she really was in the breeze and in the trees, huh.
