I just remembered that last year I had to waste an hour of my fucking life walking through a damn blizzard to get home since the bridge shut down. You’d think Canada would be prepared for snow, but no. It always takes two days for the roads to get cleared.
Now that I remember this though, I’m going to add a blizzard during Pico’s journey west in The Musical Trail. Be all like, “Oh, no. He’s cold. Let BF & GF hug you, Pico. This snowstorm out of nowhere totally wasn’t an excuse for cuddles. Nope.”

listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded psychopath happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.

Me this morning: Oh it's snowing! so that's why Pirlouit woke me up braying harder than usual, he finds no twigs to nibble on as he waits for breakfast
Me doing a quick head count of animals in the pasture: ... Ah. No. He was snitching
I have no explanations this time. Just, nothing. Usually when Pampe escapes I can quickly form a solid hypothesis, but all the gates are closed, I found no holes in the fence, and more importantly, no llama footprints except in front of the greenhouse where I found her ominously inspecting my baby cherry tree.
No tell-tale traces in the snow that would be evidence of jumping—it's like she materialised on the other side of the fence with the power of her mind. So I guess she can do that now.
I feel like Poldine is trying to give me a hint but I don't understand it. She can't have escaped here, Poldine! There are no holes and no traces! I even cleared this square metre of snow with my boot and there were no footprints in the mud below, either. (I don't know if Pampérigouste's new mind powers extend to predicting the weather so she can escape just before a snowfall, knowing it will cover her tracks.) (Maybe.)
Or maybe Poldine wasn't trying to help me solve the mystery, just telling her mum "hurry up, she won't give us breakfast as long as you're out." (It's true. No one gets to eat while Pampe is out, and I hope the other animals understand this and blame her for the delay.)
Pampe resents this psychological pressure and now plans to focus her llama mind powers on controlling me like a hay-carrying puppet.

Absolutely criminal that the TBOSAS movie didn’t show more of weirdo city boy Coriolanus Snow. Bro spent a month and a half going batshit insane about birds to the point he suggested going on a mass murdering spree TO THE SERGEANT ON BASE.
He literally will not shut up about the humidity he’s so insufferable about it. And Sejanus, who lived ten years in the same place he did, is completely fine and honestly thriving in D12.
Dude is unnerved by the forest in District Twelve like it’s not the most tame North American forest ever. Acting like it’s a tropical jungle cause he’s never seen a tree before.
Anyone who calls Sejanus whiny I dare you to read part three of TBOSAS and listen to Coriolanus bitch about the weather for 150 pages.

love how what made me hate snow in the original thg trilogy was all the atrocities, but what made me hate him in tbosas was the fact that he doesn't get poetry and hates ghost stories, like what a fucking philistine

im going crazy with how people are starting to agree with snow that sejanus was really stupid and deserved what was coming to him. reading the books first should be a pre requisite to the movie idcccc if that takes away the wider audience, the wider audience all have smooth brains anyway.
“why was he colluding with rebels when he could’ve just thought about it pragmatically 🙄” i’m in your fucking walls. sejanus was never dumb, snow just kept pushing that perception of him through the book to deflect the fact that sejanus was an actual good person. snow thought himself the personification of good and benevolence, which was why everything he did had to have some half-assed excuse as to why he was justified in doing it. it was why he was actually tweaking in the woods when lucy gray left him, because he wanted to rid himself of her but he didn’t have an actual reason so he convinced himself of the most random scenario ever to justify trying to shoot at her. so we can establish that snow was an evil broke boy who clearly wasn’t good— then sejanus was a direct confrontation of snow’s own shortcomings towards that (i don’t think i have to detail how sejanus was genuine, it was obvious). coriolanus and sejanus are like the direct opposite characters of each other, and snow knew and took pride in this to an extent. which is why snow couldn’t admit that sejanus was good to himself, thus sejanus was deemed ‘stupid’ to protect his own deluded self actualisation (but this also includes other aspects like how the war made the plinths rich and the snows poor, leading to resentment and jealousy from snow).
“but that still didn’t mean he wasn’t doing dumb things throughout the book” was it really that dumb? a rebellion will always include some level of risk but i don’t hear anyone calling heavensbee stupid because it actually worked out for him. plus sejanus is district, so if we use our common sense of who he is as a character and emotional intelligence of his situation, it’s pretty easy to see why he would get in touch with rebels. he’s literally always yearned for the districts, he never once cared about his money or safety, which isn’t stupid, it’s sad. this was his way of dealing with the guilt of profiting from his people’s suffering— again, not stupid. you could argue he was reckless, especially when he went into the arena, but most people who simply cast him as a ‘dumb character’ ignore how troubled he is and fall into the very filtered lens of snow who was just concentrating on his stupidity.
sejanus’ growing radical actions had nothing to do with stupidity and everything to do with feeling helpless and like nothing was changing. he tried minor/low-risk things such as attempting to change the perception of the districts in the capitol, advocating against the hunger games etc etc. of course it didn’t work, so his options grew limited to more radical courses of action. its a natural line of thought— activists literally do it in real life when they feel as if their cause isn’t getting enough attention (eg. setting themselves on fire). sejanus is a desperate character who is so selfless in light of snow’s constant self-preservation. snow will always put himself first and be paranoid that he will be betrayed like he’s betrayed others, so he never understands sejanus’ disposition to help and trust people, so he labels him dumb. omg. like. sejanus is so not-stupid i’m actually gonna start freaking out!! this is defamatory leave my boo alone!! plz go read a book and work on media literacy i am begging!!!
