So I only say, So what should we do with our last few days? I just want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you, Peeta replies.
Suzanne Collins
Image
What about Gale? He's not a bad kisser either, I say shortly. And it was okay with both of us? You kissing the other? He asks. No. It wasn't okay with either of you. But I wasn't asking your permission, I tell him. Peeta laughs again, coldly, dismissively. Well, you're a piece of work, aren't you?
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.

Suzanne Collins
Image
My time in the arena made me realize how I needed to stop punishing [my mother] for something she couldn't help, specifically the crushing depression she fell into after my father's death. Because sometimes things happen to people and they're not equipped to deal with them.
Suzanne Collins
Image
You're still trying to protect me. Real or not real, he whispers. Real, I answer. Because that's what you and I do, protect each other.
Suzanne Collins
Image
I always channel my emotions into my work. That way, I don't hurt anyone but myself.
Suzanne Collins
Image
In really bad times, the hungriest would gather at his door at nightfall, vying for the chance to earn a few coins to feed their families by selling their bodies. Had I been older when my father died, I might have been among them. Instead I learned to hunt.
Suzanne Collins

Everything is about them, not the dying boys and girls in the arena.
Suzanne Collins
Image
But just before they cut back to the main newscaster, I see the unmistakable flash of that same mockingjay's wing. The reporter has simply been incorporated into the old footage. She's not in District 13 at all. Which begs the question, What is?
Suzanne Collins
Image
But I don't know what to him about the aftermath of killing a person. About how they never leave you.
