Johanna/Finnick, if it's any consolation, T for cursing, spoilers for Catching Fire & Mockingjay
Johanna is a strategist, had been since the moment she stepped onto the platform on Reaping Day and decided that holding back her fear was not the best method of attack. But she’s no Katniss nor Finnick nor Haymitch; the multihued citizens in the Capitol don’t spin a romantic, tragic tale about her life and her victory, don’t sit and wait for her appearance on their screens to see if she will awe or fall. They revile her instead, this girl that didn’t fit their image of a winning tribute, that tricked her kills and the Gamemakers and most of all them. (And when you’re betting on the Careers, planning on using that payout to upgrade to the latest trend that anyone who is anyone must have, the rise and triumph of the underdog is nothing less than a personal offense
( ... )
omg the fact that the first fill is for johanna/finnick is seriously amazing and wonderful. and aaah i loved this!
So while Peeta screams for Katniss and Annie murmurs about her prince and the sea, she imagines wiping that smug grin off Finnick’s face when he sees that her boat does not capsize, but glides.
so perfectly johanna. and that last paragraph slayed me. (also i loved that detail about the curtain!!)
I love that you've made this scene from Cinna's POV. It's so beautiful and painful. This line just KILLS me
"Cinna," she whispers to him, and her voice is probably lower than is fit for any sixteen-year-old girl, but then again she's never been sixteen, has she, and there's not a chance in hell she's going to be now.
Because YES. I can't thank you enough for this. Totally made my night!
