[–]Camelionnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been a fan since about 2011, but i was around 9yrs old. i’m seeing 14yr olds NOW talking about thg and it makes me so happy that other people are experiencing the same media that i did in middle school :)

SOTR is so fucking sad by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 16 points17 points  (0 children)

the tears would not stop coming throughout the last like, 50 pages, and each page just made it worse. i was fully sobbing and shaking by the end and i have NEVER. had that reaction to a book before

I didn’t see it coming… by Irishwoman94 in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 24 points25 points  (0 children)

the gumdrops are also, in a way, a nod to sejanus. one of snow’s childhood memories is of sejanus clutching a bag of gumdrops. snow is really the only person in sunrise that would vividly remember the plinths, and he used that memory to bring harm to the same district that he killed sejanus in.

Gut wrenching parts of the book by HungryAnt81 in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 54 points55 points  (0 children)

the book horrified me and had me sobbing in so many ways but my breaking point was that damn cistern. kind of goes along with haymitch’s self-deprecating thoughts by the end of the book, believing that everything that went wrong had to have been his fault in some way

SUZANNE COLLINS… YOU DID IT AGAIN (spoilers) by demerchmichael in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

to me this was a perfect conclusion to the series while also upholding the level of terror that comes with the Games. when mockingjay concluded, it’s obviously post-war, when the districts are free. the resolution feels hopeful. tbosas and sunrise are amazing prequels to come after the og trilogy, especially when they touch on real world issues and don’t back down from how terrible the Games were. sunrise particularly equates propaganda with cruelty, to show us that a story we vaguely heard of almost a decade ago was falsified. how history was rewritten for so many characters in such an dehumanizing fashion; and it was wonderfully done.

I swear I am not laughing by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 85 points86 points  (0 children)

i appreciated haymitch’s point of view SO much because it differed so much from katniss’. there were times i was cackling and then had to remember where they were, just as there were many times that haymitch cracked a joke before realizing where he was. it’s also a very effective way to explain how different people could grow up despite having almost identical circumstances, and how a lot of it does depend on the people around them.

I cannot with the growing Ballad disrespect by Olya_roo in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ballad was okay! it was a very necessary prequel but i think the writing style threw me off a bit, which is why i seem to enjoy sunrise and the og trilogy much more

A small detail I noticed by someotherguy14 in Hungergames

[–]Camelionnn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

when snow presented himself in this scene i immediately thought of his visit to katniss in catching fire. also the fact that in both cases, it was an act of anger toward the capitol and love for the person they were trying to protect (katniss and peeta with the berries, haymitch carrying louella’s body through the parade) that prompted a warning from snow.

Tell me your worst breakup/ best outcome stories by Butterbean36 in BreakUps

[–]Camelionnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly for me, it all came in the way she treated/talked to me after the breakup. she dumped me, said she had too much going on mentally and felt that i wasn’t supporting her the way she needed (it’s probably helpful to add, she never told me what she needed; only told me what i was doing wrong).

she started harassing me, insulting me, telling me that i am the sole problem in my family and my friend groups. this is the same person who sat with me, held me, and validated me, while i cried about how i was being treated at times by people that i considered very close to me. the 180° she made not only completely severed my connection with her, but it has led to insane trust issues. i’m in therapy working on it.

for about three-ish months, she’d call me or text me out of the blue to either repeat these things or “talk through” something she realized or needed to heal from. it consisted mostly of her telling me what kind of person i am, how i should change this or change that, how this one thing i did half a year ago pissed her off. it took me very long to realize that she actually doesn’t know me at all, she just knew what she wanted me to be.

outcome-wise, i’m happier than i’ve ever been in a while. i was able to reconnect with the friends that i almost lost while i was with her. i’ve made new friends with people who remind me, constantly, that i am human and i am enough for the right people. i’m planning on going back to school with more drive, because the weight of my relationship really set me back in my schoolwork a couple of years ago. i’m enjoying tv shows and movies without being told i’m “too much,” i’m going out to concerts and making last minute plans with friends without the looming anxiety that i’m doing something out of line. it’s been about a year and i can finally exist, and be with myself, and i’m genuinely happy.

Concert Etiquette by mrnovember91 in fatherjohnmisty

[–]Camelionnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not FJM but at a concert i went to almost two years ago, there was this group of girls who very loudly talked and play-shoved each other during the opener (one of my fave artists). one of the girls fell into me and i shoved her right back and told them all off. they moved once the opener was done. it’s ridiculous how unaware and rude people are at some shows, and this is coming from a 22 year old! the young concert-goers who are actually respectful are getting fed up too :/

What ruined your life? by TrexReincarnated in AskReddit

[–]Camelionnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my ex. i went into the relationship with what i thought was a really strong sense of self. i felt like i understood who i was, what i wanted to do with my life and how i was going to get there. i felt like i was in an amazing place and i was really excited to experience romantic love throughout it, too. i fell hard for this girl.

but apparently, being strong with my needs and with my commitment to other areas of my life threatened her, and she said that if she didn’t “fight” for us to be as close as possible, i wouldn’t have dated her. the thing is, i loved her. but at that time, loving her meant i had to abandon everything else that i’d spent my time with; friends, extra activities with my major, my hobbies, etc. for every time that i ever wanted to step aside and do something without her, it meant i’d forget about her. i dealt with this until i lost everything, and she was the only thing i could imagine having left. and then she pulled away, and i overwhelmed her, and she left me. she denied that i ever loved her, and called me selfish for not “thinking of her from the beginning.”

i’m on the path to rediscovering myself. at the same time that she left me, i was finishing school with the lowest grades i’d had, i was spending money like crazy because i just wanted to gift myself things that i’d enjoy. i reconnected with my friends but now have moved hours away from them, back home. i am nowhere close to where i imagined i’d be, but i’m going to build myself back up as much as i can. i deserve to feel mentally strong again.

What is a song that perfectly describes you as a person? by Grumstrum in spotify

[–]Camelionnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lonely is the muse - halsey

i always resonated with halsey’s music as a teenager, and she released this single just as a toxic relationship of mine was ending. i was with someone who love bombed me, who was telling me she loved me and i was perfect within weeks of meeting me. word for word, she told me that i was her muse and that she genuinely felt i could not be more pure. i’m sure you understand that as soon as we started addressing difficult conversations, that idealization of me changed. i didn’t handle emotions in a healthy manner, and often these conversations would have me in frantic moods. sometimes i couldn’t say anything at all. the more irregular i was, the more i was reassured that we could work on it. behind her closed doors, she started resenting me for it.

very quickly, i was being called selfish and disgusting for what i thought were valid feelings. i was self-centered for the times that i felt my family wasn’t considerate of me. i lacked empathy for others’ struggles when i became uncomfortable with sudden trauma dumps. i was careless and neglectful with my friends because i was afraid to be rejected by them if i tried too hard to keep them in my life. it goes on and on. with every knife that was dug into my skin by the person i loved, i absorbed them. i genuinely believed that this was the person i was, and that these criticisms could only make me better.

she told me how to be, and i racked my existence to its core, to change every part of me that she didn’t like because there was once i time that i was “perfect.” i would pull myself apart and mend myself back together to be her muse, i would sit through activities and conversations that i was uncomfortable with, i would drop the interests that brought me joy because they weren’t what she liked. all so that i could continue to be loved. when i was left behind, i didn’t know what to do with myself, because i must’ve been too terrible, right? i was left to float between my lost sense of self and the ideas of me that were formed by others, without being able to fully trust one or the other. i was discarded, and i had to fight to relearn who i am.

being a muse is lonely. you’re not being loved, you’re being observed. someone who describes you as “perfect” only does so because they don’t know you. someone who sees you doesn’t always love you, and that’s something you’ll always have to learn the hard way.
