Somehow She Found Herself Closer To Cassian Than Before, Her Breathing Matched His, Or His Matched Hers,

the writing style of the hunger games is addictive and that’s a huge part of the appeal of the novels that didn’t get translated to the screen. i always think about the stephanie meyer (lol) quote on the hunger games book where she says “i couldn’t put this book down i had to take it out to dinner and keep reading it” and i mean, so true bestie stephanie, but here’s why.

it’s because every chapter ends in a cliffhanger. and i’m not kidding when i say that it is so flawlessly paced that you can’t put it down, but those beats are so crucial to why the book is so amazing to read. think of the end of the literal first chapter of the book: “it’s primrose everdeen.” that is a BOMB that she drops in that first chapter, and after the introduction, you as the reader are as blown away as katniss. so, you can’t help but turn the page and keep reading!! because you HAVE to know what happens next. and how does the second chapter end? like this: “of course, the odds have not been very dependable of late.” you, the reader, are instantly thinking, oh my god, what is going to happen? are the odds going to be in her favor? is she going to have to kill peeta? you HAVE to know. so you turn the page.

the reason this works so well is because suzanne collins wrote for television and you can tell. it is my personal belief that thg should have been adapted for television and not into films, because missing those beats, even just the white space of the page, i think fundamentally warps the pacing and the structure of the novels. i know i go on and on and on about the “because she came here with me” and “if it weren’t for the baby” lines but seriously this is why peeta is a media genius, it’s because suzanne COLLINS is a media genius. can you imagine watching that on television and the screen just cuts to black and goes to commercial or the episode ends and you have to wait to see what happens next?? it’s GENIUS

furthermore, the hunger games series as a whole is divided into a trilogy, but within that, divided into three sections each. and each section ends with an even bigger cliffhanger than the last. i see these, in the world of television, as mini season breaks within the larger three “seasons” of the show (that being the whole trilogy). here are the first three endings of all the sections. imagine you’re watching this on television and these lines drop, and then you have to wait several more weeks for the next installment. you would be climbing the walls for it. part 1 (the tributes): “peeta blushes beet red and stammers out. “because. because. she came here with me.” part 2 (the games): “before i can stop myself, i call out peeta’s name.” part 3 (the victor) (the end of the book): “i take his hand, holding on tightly, preparing for the cameras, and dreading the moment when i will finally have to let go.” those are ALL cliffhangers and make it impossible to stop reading.

(also, we can talk about the fact that all three of those beats are focused on peeta, the one who seems to most intrinsically understand dramatic timing and using his words to create a narrative.)

anyway that is why it is my personal and impassioned belief that the hunger games should have been adapted for television rather than film, because it would have been far more in keeping with the spirit, tone, and pacing of the novels to adapt it into a serialized form rather than a 2 hour film. 

I can’t wait for Rogue One to be released on DVD/blue-ray so I can experience deep emotional anguish time and time again from the comfort of my own home.

broke : rachel is a bitch, a bad person, for getting in the way of percabeth and hurting annabeth

woke : rachel did nothing wrong for having feelings for a guy, annabeth however was definitely toxic for being so rude and bitchy to a girl for liking her crush

bespoke : none of them were wrong, they were both teenagers being teenagers in the middle of war. rachel did nothing wrong and was a good friend to percy, and she even tried to be understanding of annabeth's situation despite facing hostility, she also didn't get in the way of anything. annabeth may have acted rude but consider this, she was a traumatised teenage girl with abandonment issues and acted impulsively when she realised she's close to lose yet another person she loves. annabeth was also fourteen at that time, teenagers act extremely bratty, especially when it comes to crushes, she was a child who acted like a child. that doesn't make her a selfish or terrible person since majority of teens act immature and they eventually grow out of it as they grow older which annabeth did as well. in short stan both annabeth chase and rachel dare.

in this household we love and respect both annabeth and rachel

I can’t fix him but I could fuck him.
