Image
And some small gnarled place inside me hated her for her weakness, for her neglect, for the months she had put us through. I had taken a step back from my mother, put up a wall to protect myself from needing her, and nothing was ever the same between us again.

Everything is happening too fast for me to process it.

Well, I can't leave Mags behind, says Finnick. She's one of the few people who actually likes me.

Image
There's no district 12 to escape from now, no Peacekeepers to trick, no hungry mouths to feed. The Capitol took away all of that, and I'm on the verge of losing Gale as well. The glue of mutual needs that bonded us so tightly together for all those years is melting away.

Peeta looks me right in the eye and gives my hand what I think is meant to be a reassuring squeeze. Maybe it's just a nervous spasm.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I must still look perplexed because Gale delivers the next line very slowly. “Katniss…he’s still trying to keep you alive.” To keep me alive? And then I understand. The Games are still on.

Ally. Peeta says the words slowly, tasting it. Friend. Lover. Victor. Enemy. Fiancee. Target. Mutt. Neighbor. Hunter. Tribute. Ally. I'll add it to the list of words I use to try to figure you out. The problem is, I can't tell what's real anymore, and what's made up.

While I was waiting...I ate your lunch.

I look at Peeta and he gives me a sad smile. I hear Haymitch's voice. You could do a lot worse. At this moment, it's impossible to imagine how I could do any better. The gift...it is perfect. So when I rise up on my tiptoe to kiss him, it doesn't seem forced at all.

Dawn comes before sleep does.

We fight, we dare, we end our hunger for justice.
Suzanne Collins
Image
We could do it, you know. What? Leave the district. Run off. Live in the woods. You and I, we could make it.
Suzanne Collins

You would think after all the hours I’d spent with Gale– watching him talk and laugh and frown– that I would know all there was to know about his lips. But I hadn’t imagined how warm they would feel pressed against my own. Or how those hands [...] could entrap me… I vaguely remember my fingers, curled tightly closed, resting on his chest.

One time, my mother told me that I always eat like I'll never see food again. And I said, I won't unless I bring it home. That shut her up.
Suzanne Collins
Image
It's your own fault for being so camera-ready, I tell Gale. If looks could kill.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I no longer feel any allegiance to these monsters called human beings, despise being one myself.

I’m in a shallow hole, not filled with the humming orange bubbles of my hallucination but with old, dead leaves.
