E.SO and Danko not wanting to abandon Jeff despite the other teams trying their hardest to recruit them. And Jeff didn't talk or give his input during this entire debacle either bc he knew how talented and popular they were 😭
Tumblr media
E.SO in his interview: it's not possible [to separate from Jeff]. If Danko and I left for another team, then Jeff would be alone. Then how would he proceed from there? We didn't know either. So Danko and I were worried. We couldn't abandon him. I pulled Danko to the side and said, "no this won't do. Can we not choose and just be the three of us with Jeff [...]
I'm so glad they're taking care of him 🥺

Niamh, HG AU, I so desperately want everyone's backstory here. The Michael and Lewis bit is honestly what completely did it for me, punched me in the gut. God. And then -- Mick!!! Hello! Sobbing
Let's start with Seb being a mentor tho bc...yes. He would be and the hope, the emotional investment... I can't bear it, actually. With Lewis, the clients...skin crawling, also, the trident, the secrets instead of money....you're not planning on giving him the same ending as Finnick, right, because, don't.
Sewis tho, how did they happen. What is their story. Also. How did they win their games. And! Does Lewis get reaped again during the Quarter Quell. Am I getting this right. The angst, holy fuck
PIERRE AS KATNISS AND YUKI AS PEETA why is this so PERFECT. The scene with the berries. I haven't seen this scene in years and suddenly I was right back. You're mine now!!??? Help help help. I actually felt like kicking my feet when you wrote Pierre covering a quick grin right after their victory was announced. He's clever!!! Your spin on this scene...I want more of these two right now, I'm obsessed
ok so this got reallllly long lol sorry. i'm just so!!!!!! about this au
at his heart sebastian is a teacher. a mentor. every year he tries and every year he fails. he can never be enough bc no one person is enough to change The Games. he keeps trying anyway.
lewis is. finnick adjacent ahsjdaj. i do Not plan to kill him off lmao dw!!! but i am basing a lot of his story around finnick's. and sewis. ok. think old friends. think an ally where you were once alone. think 'Hamilton has found a friend'.
lewis was fourteen when he was Reaped. fourteen and small and curls down around his ears and skinny ankles. the camera zoomed in on his brother's teary eyes. hamilton had already lost a sister to the games five years ago. he is frowning and quiet and solemn. he speaks very little and chitchat does not come naturally to him. he is a little too wild for comfort. his stylist shaves him near bald and makes his cheeks rosy and tells him to speak as soft as he can. flutter those long lashes. bono, it turns out, is lewis's saving grace bc his mentor, fernando alonso, doesn't look at him after lewis tells him he's washed and old and useless when fernando laughs at lewis saying he's going to win this year. lewis is fourteen and small and the Capitol's Darling when he spears five different tributes in the stomach with a makeshift trident. he has been swimming since he was three. hauling in fishing nets for a little under a decade. those who do not work in district four do not eat. he is the youngest victor ever and michael schumacher tilts his glass at him during the celebrations. he tells lewis to do as they ask, not matter the price. lewis does not listen. his family pays for it.
three years later, sebastian is Reaped, and he's small and fourteen and has small hands and a wide smile. they leave his curls. he laughs and he charms and he plays the demure shy shining golden boy card. sebastian has always been very good at playing this game. he can't stop smiling. he avoids killing until the very end, hiding out and stealing from other tributes. he paints his face and arms and legs and runs through the trees. he kills the last two tributes with his bare hands. michael is his mentor. sebastian does what they ask. he listens.
michael is the one to introduce them, tipsy and grinning and bright eyed. he waits two years until sebastian is sixteen and of age and then leaves. lewis never talks to seb about it. the walls have ears.
it is not until seven years after lewis's games, four years of sebastian talking at lewis, that valtteri bottas is reaped and he's just another face in a series of deaths and he's not even from lewis's district so what does lewis care but valtteri comes up to him in the capitol, a bruise on his cheek, eyes so fucking blue, and says, i want you. lewis laughs in his face, half drunk. your secrets don't interest me. and valtteri rolls his eyes. no. no, i want you to be my mentor. lewis laughs again. no, you don't. valtteri blinks at him, unmoving, hand over the lift's buttons so lewis can't get out. yes, i do. i remember you. in the games. i want you to teach me to do what you do. i need you to. and so lewis does. he helps him and valtteri survives. when sebastian congratulates him, it's the first time he ever sees lewis smile.
they talk more after that. fernando and lewis switch being mentor year to year. sebastian is district twelve's only victor so he never stops. sometimes when they're both in the Capitol, lewis finds sebastian already tucked into lewis's bed in his apartment. he always has lewis's tea, hot and waiting, in a thermos on the kitchen counter. sometimes he washes lewis's hair and body for him after nights when lewis is working.
lewis does get reaped during the quarter quell and he is soooo annoying to pierre who is Furious over this beautiful cocky smiling man. sebastian is the one to hold him when pierre finds out they left yuki behind in the arena but it is lewis who teaches him how to get up in the mornings despite it all.
(there is a coin tucked into the inside of lewis's shoe during the quarter quell. it is the same one sebastian had around his neck during his games. sebastian holds it so tightly it digs an imprint into his palm when he waits for lewis to wake up on their flight to district thirteen.)
pierre is Nothing if not possessive and he has very little people he counts as his own - charles and alex - and now yuki. maybe sebastian. there are his and he is theirs. fuck the rest of them.

Love, Victor spoilers
I hated how Victor’s mom kept using the whole well thats how I was raised narrative to like excuse her homophobia like Armando was raised the same way yet he tried since the beginning. Also like what is there to getting used to it. Your kid is gay he didn’t murder anyone or do anything bad he just likes the same sex I hate the whole narrative of oh parents need to get used to it to bruh I literally like ppl of the same sex what is so different about living someone of the opposite sex??? I didn’t rlly like how victor kept excusing it too especially in front of Benji like Benji had every right to be pissed off if we’re being honest I just wish from the beginning victor would’ve stood up for himself, for Benji n his relationship. It’s bs that victors mom does 3 good things that aren’t homophobic n suddenly we’re supposed to like her n cheer for her like first of all calling out your homophobic priest, apologizing to your sons boyfriend n talking to your youngest son about his brother being gay aren’t things that are supposed to be hard to do. First of all the moment your priest said homophobic shit you shoudlve cut him off, you shoudlve accepted Benji and victor from the beginning n not done all them side glances, the whole calling him his friend even tho they’re dating, ruining nights victor was bringing Benji over, excusing your homophobia with the whole oh thats how I was raised, etc n you shoudlve told ur youngest son that Victor was gay from the beginning like who cares LmAo its just liking the same sex it’s not like he’s something bad I just really think she’s one of the worst characters n I’m rlly disappointed that Armando chose her. Like he could do so much better especially with someone who actually loves him n doesn’t cheat on him
