#but only with Coriolanus

[maysrinn]

What is the origin of how Janus got his cat? (Did they have to go through a bonding arc like Hiccup and Toothless from how to train your dragon?)

it was time for the ✨Cat distribution system✨

Tiramisu was discovered by Coriolanus as a kitten at the end of a date night with Lucy Gray. Despite his attempts to shoo away the lively creature Like a true gentleman, Lucy Gray intervened and picked it up. Holding it with the pure bliss of excitement and awe.

Upon finding the stray kitten, she made the decision to bring it home despite her husband's objections. She believed the kitten would make a wonderful companion for six-year-old Janus. However, Coriolanus remained unconvinced and prohibited Lucy Gray from allowing the stray near their son until it had been examined by a veterinarian, fearing the risk of illness or disease transmission.

On the 4th of July, a few weeks after Janus received Tiramisu as the best birthday gift in his opinion thanking his parents excitedly.

There was a bonding arc but it wasn't Janus and Tiramisu XD Lucy Gray had to make sure that Tiramisu and Coriolanus went along.

______

Little fact, Tiramisu slept for a while in Coriolanus and Lucy Gray's bedroom with Janus in between them. Wherever little Sejanus went the cat followed. Coriolanus wasn't having it-

sorry but snow is such a well written iconic villain and donald sutherland performs him so fucking good it's almost hilarious how i start practically foaming at the mouth every time the man opens his mouth to say something deplorable in those movies, like he's so utterly and despicably wrong about almost every crucial thing from katniss and peeta's relationship to human nature as a whole and yet the second he starts talking about how hope is the only thing stronger than fear and how you have to allow a little hope but control it so its spark doesn't grow into revolution and how it's the things we love the most that destroy us you bet your ass i am on the floor screaming crying throwing up because that is my psychotic mustache-twirling villain RIGHT THERE

#every scene he's in is so delicious and i want it injected into my veins like heroine #as you can tell i'm quite fond of masterfully crafted villains whose monologues leave you breathless #also that part where he just tells seneca 'i like you...be careful' *EPIC CHEF'S KISS*🔥 #'hope...it is the only thing stronger than fear' #'a little hope is effective. a lot of hope is dangerous. the spark is fine as long as it's contained' #he isn't my roman empire but i do dwell on him from time to time and get shivers down my fucking spine #coriolanus snow #president snow #snow #president coriolanus snow #hunger games #the hunger games #the hunger games trilogy #thg #mockingjay #catching fire #katniss everdeen #peeta mellark #seneca crane #suzanne collins #donald sutherland

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins CHAPTER 26 / CHAPTER 27 / EPILOGUE

#as always. the mf who always focuses on names focused on names! #lit #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #the hunger games #coriolanus snow #lucy gray baird #photo #tais toi lys #thgpost #* #the self-fulfilling prophecy of her name. the tragedy that could only ever be a tragedy. lucy gray who haunts snow for years to come. #lucy gray who lives as a ghost in each victor‚ who died because of snow. lucy gray who remains a mystery‚ forgotten to everyone in time but #the birds. lucy gray‚ the performer. lucy gray‚ the girl who fell in love with snow and was buried under it. #lucy gray baird: the mockingjay who started it all

[p4nishers]

the way can't catch me now could easily be about sejanus too is a stroke of genius on olivia's part. because, in a way, snow was haunted by sejanus. sejanus' death was his final pushing point into cruelty. sejanus was the only good left in him, the only thing holding him to goodness, but the moment coriolanus betrayed him, he was changed. he became snow. he is haunted by sejanus in the jabberjays, the mockingjays, he sees him in katniss, in her stubbornness, in her unwillingness to be easy for others to shallow, in her bravery, in her fierceness. everywhere he looked, he saw sejanus, in the whole rebellion, in the face of his parents who basically adopted snow, in katniss honoring rue's death by surrounding her with flowers the same way sejanus honored marcus' body by sprinkling bread on him to help his journey. he caged peeta, the same way he wanted to cage lucy gray, but he couldn't cage katniss. he couldn't cage sejanus. no matter how hard he tried, sejanus remained a good person, remained true to himself till his death. he killed sejanus but he couldn't kill what he stood for, he couldn't kill the inherent goodness in people. lucy haunted him till the ends of his days, but so did sejanus.

#i truly genuinely hope he was sick to his stomach every time he saw sejanus in katniss #i only ship them in a way that they were in love but snow never deserved sejanus and i hope sejanus memory haunts him EVERYWHERE he turns #cunty draco malfoy needs to calm himself fr like actually #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #sejanus plinth #coriolanus snow #the hunger games #snowjanus

Edit: I love how ‘clever, devious, deadly’ perfectly applies to Coryo as well. Birds of a feather, for lack of better words.

The Gamemaker's Apprentice

Masterlist

Fandom and pairing: TBOSAS, Dark!Young!Coriolanus x Named!Reader

Status: Ongoing

Premise:

Welcome to The Game!

There are no strict rules to The Game, and you only have one objective: to avoid capture. So you have to use your smarts, rely on your instincts and carefully plan ahead if you want to win. Outsmart the enemy, it loses a point and bides its time; get outsmarted by the enemy, and you get twice as close to getting captured. You may have to face multiple enemies at once. You won't die in The Game, but others might. You are at risk of losing yourself and compromising your core values as The Game progresses.

Will you prevail, or will the enemy ultimately land on top?

Overall warnings, take heed:

NON-CON, DUB-CON, Dark!Young!Coriolanus Snow, Snow himself should be a warning, lots of blackmailing, gaslighting, manipulation, obsession, ​possesiveness, drugging, somnophilia, eventual forced marriage, eventual loss of virginity, breeding kink, canon-compliant major character death, reader is named but has no physical descriptions in the fic so one might also consider her an OC but in 2nd POV, will have canon inconsistencies, Slow burn!! and other stuff that may be added

idk if it's been talked about before but suzanne collins never misses a BEAT when it came to names, specifically coriolanus snow and dr volumnia gaul. just from their first names alone you can already guess what type of role might play between them (well... if you've read shakespeare's coriolanus that is. i do recommend it btw).

a lot of bits were taken from shakespeare's play for tbosas like the motif with scars / wounds / the body as being a microcosm of the nation, the common people fighting up against the government, coriolanus' hatred of the common people wanting to be "equal" to him, the rebel arc etc etc but i'm soooo so so interested in the fact that dr gaul was named volumnia and coriolanus is coriolanus because in the play, coriolanus' mother's name is volumnia!

volumnia is arguably the only female character in the play that has any depth (i am so sorry virgilia). his mother shapes her son into the warrior he is. she reminds him at every turn that he is nothing more than a weapon to be wielded. in fact, she's the one who gets her son to come back from his "revolt" against rome which ultimately lead to his demise. this parallels tbosas in the same way because dr gaul took coriolanus and molded him into the villain you would see in thg trilogy. she brought him back from d12 and then brought about the end of his humanity (a death, so to speak—at the end of the book he said something similar to this to try to save himself from lucy gray's suspicions but he was right because he did kill a part of himself to be where he is)! coriolanus snow's mother is present but off-page. her ghost haunts him, comforts him, but the 'mother' figure is the ever-present, all-knowing dr gaul.

UGH! like with just their names you could map out where they end up at the end of the story and that's literally insane. like the caliber of writing is literally next to none fr

#lit #the hunger games #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #coriolanus snow #volumnia gaul #meta #text #tais toi lys #thgpost #yet again the mf that fixates on names and shakespeare talks about names and shakespeare what can i say i'm predictable #ALSOOOOOOO. shakespeare's coriolanus' name isn't even coriolanus. it's caius martius but it's only when he helped deafeat corioles that he #earns the name coriolanus. it's a neat parallel that coriolanus didn't really “earn” the snow name until he became a villain. #anyway i'm just spitballing #*

modern!coryo is one of those tall, lean guys with such an imminent superiority complex he borders on being an incel - but bc he has a big dick and a pretty face, he tends to get away with it better than others.

#this is maybe slightly a shift to regular modern!coryo #maybe when he’s a bit younger #but yeah he’s a dick and he only get away w it bc he knows how to use his actual dick #ig i just hc modern!coryo to rely on sex like regular coryo relies on his natural charm 💀💀 #modern!snow #coriolanus snow #coriolanus snow x reader #coriolanus x reader smut #coriolanus snow imagine

A Teaser

Pairing: Dark!Young!Coriolanus Snow x Named!Female!Reader

Multi-chapter fic, most likely slowburn

Summary:

Coriolanus Snow, having known hunger most of his life, learned at an early age how voracious his appetite can be. This was during the war: a girl roughly his age had spared him a handful of the most delicious candy he'd ever tasted. He's never quite forgotten the taste of the sweet, nor the kindness of the girl who had given it to him.

Years later, the same appetite brings the newly-assigned District 7 Major-Officer Snow to this non-descript grocery store in search of food, only to find something so much better: the same candy, and you, the grocer's reclusive daughter. Could you be the same girl who had selflessly chosen hunger to lessen his?

In his quest to find out, he unearths many things: your true identity, your family’s secrets, and his rather sweet spot for you. You become his favourite treat, and since he’s nothing but insatiable, he’ll do just about anything to get his fix.

Warnings:

None specific yet, but this a vanta-black dark!fic that will contain non-con and murder

Release Date/Status: TBA, incoming

would you ever write for young Snow? like outside of the 10th hunger games au you talked about for And They'd Find Us in A Week? Please mother I hungerrrr

tbh I don't find Tom Blithe attractive. Like, nothing against the actor, but I felt like I was being gaslit into thinking he was a heartthrob, but I just don't get it! It feels like the Paul Dano plague that happened when Batman came out. Like, Tom had the craziness down, but the pretty boy, trusting act Corio used to trick everyone in the book doesn't translate well in the movie for me bc that man is neither a pretty boy OR trusting. Like, fr I don't know how anyone trusted a thing outta that man's mouth, he does NOT look trustworthy!!!! I wouldn't trust him to piss on me if I was on fire.

You know who I would trust and follow blindly? Blond Callum Turner!!!! Look at him!

LOOOOOOKKKKKKKKK

I knows he's brunet in the last one but that's my man and you WILL listen

IT EVEN LOOKS LIKE HE'S IN THE PEACEKEEPER JUMPSUIT IN THIS ONE

Mannnn yall don't wanna hear me, you just wanna dance 🙄

But, yeah, I'll write for young Corio, but ONLY this one.

Okay but you know what could really destroy Snow?

Seeing Lucy Gray slowly starting to fall out of love with him. Lucy Gray knowing him so well she starts to be repulsed by him. The pain and disdain and the masks she has to wear (expecially if they are in the Capitol and she depends on him) in order to survive... With him because she has no other option. Lucy Gray, who put trust above everything, slowly starting to lie to his face, to hyde the fear and the pain behind fake smiles to make him happy with her.

And he will see this. He will see because, as always, as they are connected by the stars, as they are both performers, he can read her as she can read him. He can see her pulling back from their love story.

So. He may think that he want her to be caged, because so he can feel safe. But in reality he can not. In reality, he needs her to choose him. Everyday. They have to be a team. They have to be alone against the world (even if that means they have to perform to find a place in that world). He has to know, to feel sure, to feel warm about the fact that his Lucy Gray wanted him and wanted to be with him in the same way he wanted to be with her.

He has to be sure they truly love each others.

Or he is going to be insane. After all, he already did. One trace of doubt - he lost it. He lost it so bad.

But betrayal in a so giant way is a thing; a thing that set him in a rage, that make him spiraling without control and do despicable things in a matter or seconds.

Slowly see your only love slowly fade away? This is another type of pain who can drive one mad in a more subtle way, because he still had hope he can just fix things and surerly he will do it. Just a little time. Just a little patiente. He will do it. But in reality she fade. More and more far away. And panic arise, day by day.

So yeah, Coriolanus Snow was a boy in love, and as a boy in love (the first time I must add) wanted to cage her loved one, to control her. It's normal to feel this way when you love someone, because you want the other one to love you the same. But it's a passing thought, not a real one, because physical possesion doesn't mean owning someone's feelings, and he knew this. Deep down he knew. And he wants Lucy Gray's love above everything else.

Seeing her simply perform their love story to him will be too much.
