I Love Your Art Style! If Possible, Could You Ever Draw Plutarch Heavensbee And/or Caesar Flickerman?

I love your art style! If possible, could you ever draw Plutarch Heavensbee and/or Caesar Flickerman? Would love to see your take on them 🥰

Aww thank you so much. Here have my very rushed takes on them. I will say one thing I wish Suzanne Collins did more was character descriptions because it was very hard to just not default to how they look in the movie

Late night watching hunger games.

No cameras, no commentary, no lies. And no one around. 👁️👁️

How do you feel about Johanna Mason?

What do you think about Johanna’s strategy in her first games?

What are your favorite Johanna moments?

What do you think about the movie’s depiction of Johanna?

Thank you so much :)

I love Johanna Mason, her path is interesting and layered.

Tricky strategy turned out to be a good move, given that tributes usually stick to their chosen types. Maybe it wasn't just a method to survive on the arena, but also a kind of way for the little girl to 'rebel': to show that they aren't her masters, she cannot be controlled, she is unpredictable. And she continues to be unpredictable. That's why people are scared of her.

The movie version of Johanna is great; her appearance and demeanor. Except that her d13 interaction with Katniss wasn't fully shown. I love Johanna in these moments and I think this part of story is very important for understanding her character. Johanna is used to being prickly, frightening, sarcastic, such behavior helps her survive alone in this terrible world. But it seems to me that this is only the outer armor that she's just used to wear, being kind and warm means appearing vulnerable again (who can be trusted with that side of her?). And now she is again frightened and afraid of water, returning to the image of that weak crying girl that she once was. But now she isn't weak at all, but psychologically traumatized, in need of safety.

I would like to believe that in post-canon she had that kind of safety and someone to be around :(

Haymitch raising/taking care of geese has always intrigued me so much and as a textbook over-analyzer I decided to look into it. Now Suzanne may have chosen geese at random, but that won’t stop me from looking for some deeper meaning and this is what I found.

Geese are monogamous, meaning they live in permanent pairs through out the year. And historically, they have been seen as rather easy prey to target especially by the first European colonizers when they came to America. And what else come in pairs and have been seen as easy targets within the Hunger Games? Tributes, especially tributes from district 12.

However, there is also some literary and rhetorical significance to Haymitch raising geese as well. Once again, geese are often associated with the phrase “silly goose” and “goose” means “fool” or “silly one” in many modern languages in which geese have been seen as foolish or helpless. Much of the same can be said for all of the previous tributes Haymitch mentored before Katniss and Peeta. So there is something particularly moving about the fact that Haymitch takes care of geese because of the ways that they mirror the tributes.

However, the same can, in many ways, be said of Haymitch who had gained a reputation for being the drunk and silly mentor who never led his tributes to victory. However, we know just how much the odds were against those tributes and we know just how much trauma Haymitch endured during his own games and from watching tribute after tribute die. And yet, he survived and he played an important part within the rebellion in which he becomes likened to the quote “all his geese are swans.”

And this makes Haymitch (unconsciously) taking care of geese that much more impactful and adds a bit more depth even if it was unintentional on Suzanne’s part.
