Oh, the fun we two have together.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Scores only matter if they’re very good, no one pays much attention to the bad or mediocre ones.
Suzanne Collins

its not in my nature to go down without a fight even when things seem insurmountable

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

I've asked you fifty questions and still have no sense of your life, your family, what you care about. They want to know about you, Katniss. But I don't want them to! They're already taking my future! They can't have the things that mattered to time in the past! I say.

Unfortunately, I can't seal the sponsor deals for you. Only Haymitch can do that, says Effie grimly. But don't worry, I'll get him to the table at gunpoint if necessary. Although lacking in many departments, Effie Trinket has a certain determination I have to admire.

I can't help comparing what I have with Gale to what I'm pretending to have with Peeta. How I never question Gale's motives while I do nothing but doubt the latter's. It's not a fair comparison really. Gale and I were thrown together by a mutual need to survive. Peeta and I know the other's survival means our own death. How do you sidestep that?

I don't know what I expected from my first meeting with Peeta after the announcement. A few hugs and kisses. A little comfort maybe. Not this. I turn to Haymitch. Don't worry, I'll get you more liquor.

Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.

I don't write about adolescence. I write about war. For adolescents.

Peeta looks at the glass again and puts it together. You mean this will make me puke? My prep team laughs hysterically. Of course, so you can keep eating, says Octavia. I've been in there twice already. Everyone does it, or else how would you have any fun at a feast?

Never having been in love, this is going to be a real trick. I think of my parents. The way my father never failed to bring her gifts from the woods. The way my mother's face would light up at the sound of his boots at the door. The way she almost stopped living when he died.

As the alcohol overcomes my mind, I hear the glass bottle shatter on the floor. This seems appropriate since I have obviously lost my grip on everything.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away, A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray, Forget your woes and let your troubles lay, And when again it's morning, they'll wash away. Here it's safe, here it's warm, Here the daisies guard you from every harm, Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true, Here is the place where I love you.

I curl up, make myself smaller, try to disappear entirely. Wrapped in silence, I slide my bracelet that reads 'mentally disoriented' around and around my wrist.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Hey, Effie, watch this! says Peeta. He tosses his fork over his shoulder and literally licks his plate clean whit his tongue making loud, satisfied sounds. Then he blows a kiss out to her in general and calls, We miss you, Effie!

I go back to my room and lie under the covers, trying not to think of Gale and thinking of nothing else.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I flee what I can't fight. What can only do me harm.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Oh, well. At least my blood is flowing.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I wish they were all dead and we were, too. It would be best. Well, there's no good response to that. I can hardly dispute it since I was walking around with a syringe to kill Peeta when I found them. Do I really want him dead? What I want...what I want is to have him back.
