Description
Hehe.... I'm spamming you guys with Hunger Games drawings.I PROMISE this is the last one of the day. It's one of my favourite scenes from the books. I was moved to tears. :'C Everytime I read this part, I get all depressed.
Those red lines on Gale's back and Katniss's face are whip marks...incase you were wondering.
---Spoliers for Catching Fire---
For the first time, I reverse our positions in my head. I imagine watching Gale volunteering to save Rory in the reaping, having him torn from my life, becoming some strange girl's lover to stay alive, and then coming home with her. Living next to her. Promising to marry her.
The hatred I feel for him, for the phantom girl, for everything, is so real and immediate that it chokes me. Gale is mine. I am his. Anything else is unthinkable. Why did it take him being whipped within an inch of his life to see that?
"I'm so sorry," I whisper. I lean forward and kiss him.
His eyelashes flutter and he looks at me through a hue of opiates. "Hey, Catnip."
"Hey, Gale," I say.
"Thought you'd be gone by now," he says.
My choices are simple. I can die like quarry in the woods or I can die here beside Gale. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay right here and cause all kinds of trouble."
"Me, too," Gale says. He just manages a smile before the drugs pull him back under.
-Pages 117-119, Catching Fire.
Katniss, Gale, and Catching Fire belong to Suzanne Collins.

He only tried to kill her when the Capitol made him go crazy. Not his fault.

>.> Katniss was forced to like Peeta to save his @$$. He didn't really do anything in the games to help himself. and she didn't even want to like him >.> and if she had killed him....the friggen capitol wouldn't of hunted him down and brainwashed him. (Im not sure if they hunted him down but u get the point)

She pretended to love him at first but then actually fell in love. He did help himself in the Games, too. He was also too wounded to move half the time.

Too wounded? that girl climbed a tree when she had a burn? and peeta can't even clean his own wound?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
he lost his leg due to that wound! her wound wasn't nearly as bad!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He could've cleaned it! there was a river right there
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cleaning it wasn't enough. If it wasn't for Katniss, he'd have died. Anyways, you disagree with me, and that's fine. I don't want to start a war over Peeta. We should just forget it. But I was thinking, Rue could've won if Prim hadn't been picked. Cato would have killed the other Careers, and Thresh. Rue died because she got too close to the Careers. Peeta wouldve died of his wounds...yeah,
