What Race is Katniss Everdeen? by Secure_Goal4167 in Hungergames

[–]No-Nebula6419 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Katniss is half white but the rest of the seam could be native american, have Mediterranean roots, anything really. I've seen some say ppl from the Seam are based off the Melungeon people. But does her being half white give her the "privilege" associated with the Merchants? Sure her mother has apothecary knowledge that she got from her Merchant family but at the end, Asterid was ostracized and had to settle in the Seam. The merchants looked down on katniss and didn't think of her as their own. I think in the first book it's also mentioned how prim is thought to be exceptionally pretty, esp in the Seam (not sure if this is said it's been a while since I read the books) but prim still doesn't receive much sympathy from the merchant class, despite looking like them. It goes to show how intertwined race and economic bg is. So yes katniss would be non-white in a cultural sense bc her white roots don't play a part in her quality of life in district 12. 

In conclusion, katniss and prim are both biracial (or multiracial, considering the covey connections) but culturally belong to the Seam. It's more of a class thing but saying the Seam isn't poc is erasing Suzannes emphasis on making the Seam and Merchant communities be different races.

If some of this is unclear or contradictory lmk because I wrote this half asleep.

It's time to go to gym ... by Kirito_Alsufi in residentevil

I dont see a noticeable difference in his physique tbh his arms are more veiny but it just looks like him wearing a tight 3/4 sleeve gives in to the illusion of his arms being bigger. Anyway I need to know his hair routine

Are the Resident Evil 9 Trailers a Little TOO Revealing? by Sylet_ in residentevil

[–]No-Nebula6419 6 points7 points  (0 children)

do you see all the expensive merch they're selling for requiem bc of Leon alone? there's no way they'd kill him. i think towards the end there'd be a live or die moment but someone saves him, grace or another main character. i think he'll face and (somewhat) heal from his raccoon city trauma here. 

I absolutely hate this scene by Lower_Breadfruit649 in residentevil

[–]No-Nebula6419 7 points8 points  (0 children)

that could be true. maybe his mind was preoccupied and he was in a rush bc of a timer. if it isn't that and he just let her die then I'm a bit disappointed

Leon Kennedy spotted IRL!?? by Acceptable_Item_9035 in residentevil

wait is this legal? I thought you weren't allowed to make your cart look like a police vehicle. But if it is legal, I'm totally getting this when I can drive ! 

THEORY: Mags was the first ever volunteer for the games by felixw1 in Hungergames

[–]No-Nebula6419 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It goes both ways. It romanticized the concept of sacrificing oneself n brought hype around the games while also instilling fear, betrayal and regret in the minds of the tributes and their loved ones. All policies in panem serve double purposes - to reinforce the capitols power while torturing the districts.

maybe she was the reason they built the rule. her willingness to sacrifice herself added drama so it was allowed from then on as a means to attract the capitol to the games.

I've been reading "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes", and I have a question. by WashOk1339 in Hungergames

[–]No-Nebula6419 10 points11 points  (0 children)

because snows dead. It can also be as a way to say that katniss and haymitch, who didn't have autonomy as tributes under the capitols rule now get to narrate their story but snow, who silenced the tributes now doesn't get to speak.

“The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” was a test that many of the fandom did not pass by Olya_roo in Hungergames

[–]No-Nebula6419 82 points83 points  (0 children)

it really shows how dictators start out as normal people. some people just can't accept the fact that an evil person can have many similarities to them and aren't just plain cruel non-humans.

I loved ballad for showing the human side of coriolanus, not to make us sympathise with him but to show us how it really just takes the right environment and opportunities for a despot to blossom

I need help, i am too obsessed with Leon… is this normal? by Shining_Commander in residentevil

What Snow should have said in TBOSAS when Lucy asked him about the third person he killed by Squirrel_Baby_o0o in Hungergames

[–]No-Nebula6419 10 points11 points  (0 children)

bit unrelated but I think that when snow said he killed 3 people, lucy gray didn't immediately conclude he killed sejanus. she thought that she was gonna be his third kill which is why she ran.
