(It’s always in Katniss mind or with Gale) in which she says “But there would still always be the reaping looming over us, over our children. Katniss comes to associate Peeta as "the boy with the bread" who gave her hope when she had none and when her family was starving. The dancing girl with the dark hair and blue eyes. I think I was one of the first, but it seemed later on as though what people wanted in relation to Hunger Games wasn't perspective, but opportunities to buy stuff. "It was my idea," says Peeta, wincing as he pulls spikes of pottery from his palms. When Katniss needs comfort Peeta gives it. It involves more romance, some old friends and some more details on Willow and Rye, their two kids. Then I turn and leave the roof. âMaybe I'd think that, too, Caesar," says Petta bitterly, "if it weren't for the baby. " Katniss is the daughter of the girl that would have made his father happy and that would have given him a happy home and so Katniss is the girl that can do the same for him. I am his. This scene shows a clash between Katniss and Peeta, and is important to the trilogy overall and significant in the questions it poses to the reader and viewer. I am with you in that I’m not sure if Collins meant for it to read as such, if she wrote the last installment feeling rushed, or if it was a mixture of the two. I bite my lip feeling inferior. And because of the foundation of their relationship, it is only in this way that they can be together. "I don't know how to say it exactly. I hope so. He does not yet see Katniss for who she is even though he is developing feelings for her. Writing for Squidoo right now though is also worthless. he asks. In response to the example you chose about Peeta sharing a bed with her: How much can you refuse to be manipulated when you are in a mentally and emotionally unstable state and you need comfort and stability and there is a safe, sweet, and trusted male that runs in to your bedroom at the height of your instability? Only I keep wishing I could think of a way to. Also, your child had a not inconsiderable chance of being picked at the reaping and most likely killed for the entertainment of the masses. She is not interested in romance but in trying to take care of her family, particularly her sister Prim. He asks. "And it was okay with both of us? Katniss comes to have feelings for Peeta but she develops feelings gradually and as she lets down her defenses. The book's meant to make you think (that's the nature of dystopian fiction) and I think that with the movies out now that people aren't taking a deep enough look. What were Katniss and Peeta's kids' names? He was definitely obsessed with her and obsession really only requires possession of the one the person is obsessing over, which Peeta gets at the end of Mockingjay. From there Peeta takes note of Katniss and her singing and watches her everyday. Thank you for bringing it together. Getting those stats to work is a compromise at times. Katniss accepts what Peeta offers her but often feels guilty because she gives him “so little in return.” At times, Katniss catches herself and recognizes the fact that it is wrong of her to turn to Peeta in this way or to ask him to be there for her and refrains from doing so, but other times she gives in. Peeta just wanted some respect from Katniss, which is fair considering he was prepared to die twice for her, he never felt he "deserved" her like some object, he only wanted some respect and not to be used like he was. But Collins' decision to have Peeta try to kill Katniss ruined their storyline for me. I shake my head. Thank you again! In either case, it was included in the article as a piece of the picture. Katniss, Peeta and a few other tributes highlight the importance of teamwork, friendship and courage. Katniss's decision not to have children wasn't because she didn't want them per se, but because she was afraid that they would be reaped. I wrote peeta off in two was supposed to kill snow and get taken out myself” that not not wanting the old peeta that’s just getting yourself killed. Support for this is that Katniss does not want children but "after five, ten, fifteen years" she eventually agrees and gives Peeta two children because he wants them and because he "wanted them so badly." but in the future I might consider a personal blog. He struggles with trauma but tries to cope and heal with Katniss and has the children that he strongly desired. If I re-read the books in future, I will see if it reads differently that time around and can add applicable analysis at that time. So while I agree with many of your points, Katniss as the victim of Peeta's inclinations, no matter how benign, just doesn't convince me. I mean, what else am I allowed to care about at this point?" Don't you see, I want to be out of this?” (Some say that when peeta stops Katniss from taking the nightlock it’s not really “I can’t”” it’s “i won’t” if you’re not letting me out of my misery I’m not letting you out of yours (kinda mean, yikes but a little understandable). Both of these statements are correct and they are done without Katniss' consent. - Peeta and I sit at the edge of the water, hand in hand, wordless. Katniss and Peeta are united not only by the same degree of suffering, but also by suffering of the same/similar kind. This is not to say that Peeta doesn't have any redeeming qualities, because he does. At first glance it is meaningful that they grow together and are able to work towards healing and a future, on closer inspection there are other "games" being played (even if, as Katniss reflects in the epilogue, there are worse games to be "played"). To add I think your also mashing book peeta and movie peeta. From the way the book is written, I agree with you that Collins intended for Katniss to be with Peeta and their union is indeed bittersweet--which is fitting, but more bitter than sweet when looked at closely. Peeta comes to look after Gale in the morning then leaves. I hope so, if they're all on Netflix. His comment reflects Katniss’ treatment of Peeta after he tried to kill her but also the expectations of how Katniss is expected to behave towards Peeta, regardless of how she feels towards him. Since even through I don’t agree with this (in some people mind’s she doesn’t deserve him).- some say he’s also angry at himself since he gets to regret being all lovey to Katniss in the first arena, - some say that it is what you are talking about but I took a lot to get it out of him (6 weeks of torture-only it was real and it didn’t stop after an hour) which is exactly what he didn’t want to become- did probably in the back back of his brain he felt a little annoyed that she was using him. Everything is: "Peeta is sweet," "What did Katniss do to earn a guy like Peeta's affections?," "Peeta is such a wonderful guy for coming back to Katniss after everything," "Real or not real? Peeta is a character whose motivations are complicated, as his kind and sweet actions are paired with moments, actions, etc. You like to sleep with the windows open. Peeta is shown to be sweet, sensitive, smooth-talking, self-sacrificing, and steadfast. And “sometimes I don’t know what to think when they show me the tapes” he literally can’t remember being in the actual arena. It is not that Peeta is just being used and used, and that he is not getting anything out of it. He’s 17 and just was tortured/ hijacked to specifically hate her. I can't go down without a fight. Katniss does not have an answer for him. But Peeta wanted them so badly. In Mockingjay, when some of Peeta has come back and he is trying to find out what is real and not real, he makes a comment about the nights on the train. And this is the love story of Katniss and Peeta. Or that she was switching between Gale and him. I don't get to read a lot for enjoyment and THG trilogy was the first thing I have read for enjoyment in a very long time and likely for another long time to come. At the ending, Katniss and Peeta are broken beyond repair in different ways and it is haunting. "-Chapter 10, The Hunger Games. And when she understands what he means/ the layers of it after Rue’s death, in CF and even again in MJ. So you have time to catch up on the other films before Mockingjay Pt. I was troubled that Peeta ended up with Katniss. For me, it presently falls under the "Mockingjay was all over the place/a mess" category. She never wants to see them reaped, even says in CF that she imagines a world without THG, 'where Peeta's child could be safe.' Lionsgate. Haymitch is talking about the fact that people were watching them the night of the wedding. Katniss tells Gale that she never wants children because of THG. With all the problems with Squidoo it sounds like you will be on to bigger and better things in the spreading of eggs among other baskets. "I drink in his wholeness, the soundness of his body and mind. Due to Katniss’ mental condition and need, Katniss will not refuse and it benefits him to allow her to use him in this way. Peeta never expected to get Katniss, he expected to die saving her. Peeta wants Katniss to explain why he did not get what he felt was owed to him but he does this without asking her explicitly. We will see how high and mighty he is when he's faced with life and death." I never thought about any of this stuff while watching the movies. At the beginning of the book, Katniss and Gale said they didnât want to have kids because the world they lived in was awful. Will she care for him in return? So it is like you said, more of a consequence of similar experiences and loyalty—which is another reason why it’s a realistic romance and not just a typical one. So, the answer is yes, Katniss does love Gale. I'm done with them. I don’t know I would say it’s a lot more complicated than that. Katniss demonstrates a complicated dynamic and complicated feelings towards Peeta, which I think is shown in the different ways that she interacts with him. I won't go through the entire series and point out each time he says something passive-aggressive or pulls the rug out from under her (all for her own good, of course!) Mockingjay as it was published had to have been a rough or early draft because there is so much wrong with it and Collins was clearly unfocused, rushed, and not as dedicated. Katniss knows that she does not "deserve" Peeta but the way the story is written and Katniss' responses and inner dialogue suggest that she does not necessarily want to deserve him. If it only came down to that, then the other aspects would not matter and it would be ethically/morally clear cut but it's not. He gave his speech last night but it didn't change my mind, and nothing I can say will change his. I really like the argument you made about the locket and I think it is a valid and supported/supportable one. Also how she yearns the comfort, she sees gale hard decisions and remembers little details of peeta, its clear that she loves him.
