Imagine If, While In The Zoo, The Tributes Of The 10th Hunger Games Had Spent Their Time Bonding And

Imagine if, while in the zoo, the tributes of the 10th hunger games had spent their time bonding and at some point kinda joked about escaping together? And they all thought out exit strategies and such and even the word they’d use as signal to initiate the plans. They discuss who’s good at what, jokingly dividing tasks between them, with Wovey, Bobbin, and Mizzen getting the task of “stay behind us and don’t die” because they’re the youngest. No one really takes it seriously, they just use the fantasy to escape their horrid reality for a second because it’s nice to imagine all of them can make it out alive, even if they know that’s not the case.

Then the arena bombings happen

Otto and Ginnee probably still die, since they died from schrapnel, but Panlo and Sheaf were far enough away to still be conscious and moving around (that last part is mostly because of adrenaline). Everyone’s caught off-guard, but someone (probably Coral) sees their chance and screams the word they discussed, and all tributes jump into action. Jessup and Lucy Gray still save their respective mentors, but because the tributes are working together the peacekeepers have been taken out so there’s no one to drag them away. Instead, all 21 remaining tributes book it as fast as they can and manage to escape the area before reinforcements arrive. They are now on the run, and cannot show their faces without getting shot on sight, but they’re alive and that’s what matters. Mizzen, Sheaf, and Treech are the best thieves of the group (Mizzen’s small and fast (he was just closer to the snakes than everyone else shut up), Sheaf is described as "a limber little girl", and Treech sneakily stole Dill’s water bottles. That’s my evidence. Also they need more love) and thus go out to scrap together anything that may be helpful.

They, being the overachieving badasses they are, get their hands on futuristic medicine to cure Dill’s tuberculosis faster than the real world ever could and help Hy manage his asthma (because it’s chronic, there’s no way they can find a cure for that just lying around even in the future). I say they’re overachieving, because Sheaf did the back handspring for food, Treech only died because of Lucy’s cheating (still getting 6th(movie)/3d(book) place, and he definitely would’ve killed her and been a real contender for the win if she hadn’t cheated), and Mizzen is 13. A 13-year-old got 5th(book)/4th(movie) place. I rest my case.

They use the newfound supplies to heal their wounds and disinfect them, Jessup doesn’t get rabies because I make the rules here, and things are good. They spend a while utilizing their unique skills to stay hidden until one of two things happen:

1) the mentors, who have gotten quite attached to their assigned tributes, fight for the games to be disbanded and rally the rest of the academy, leading to a better Panem where the Capitol and the districts become a functioning, not-dystopian nation again and everything ends well.

2) the tributes manage to escape the capitol and flee into the woods, letting Lucy Grey lead them to the Covey because ain’t no way they can just go back to their own districts just yet. The covey, being nomadic, is the best place for them to stay until they’ve grown up enough to be unrecognizable from their child selves to anyone who doesn’t actually know them.

Either way, things are better. I wanted to share this because I’m sad that all these wonderful (fictional) children died for the amusement of genuine monsters (and those indoctrinated to believe district people are not people)

Edit because a lot of new people are liking this post: someone wrote it :)

For FE fans - the race have put Jack Nicholls on their season review podcast. The man who was fired for sexual harassment.

Don’t give it clicks. Don’t listen. Don’t make them think we want abusive assholes like him around.

I would never condone watching F1 for free without subscribing to those expensive, corporate streaming sites that make millions from advertising other corporations.

And I would never condone clicking on this link to watch F1 pre-season testing and all the free practices, qualifying and races.

Don’t click on this link.

JOKES! Fuck that, free for all is what I say. No one should miss out on F1 because it’s expensive to watch.

Just to be clear…this is the link I am talking about. It streams F1 for free. FREE!

Could you do some more Mikhail Shaidorov headcanons? Youre like the only one who writes them

Mikhail Shaidorov Dating Headcanons

- Whenever he gets back from competition, he carries you to the bed and collapses on top of you. You end up staying like this for a couple of hours until he has got enough physical contact to make up for being away from you.

- He always gives you a team Kazakhstan hoodie when he gets a new design to make sure you match him at competitions.

- If you skate, he helps teach you how to do quad toe loops - because he definitely has the best currently.

Dad!Misha Headcanons

- Let's his kids paint his nails so him and his kids nails match for his competitions. He shows them off in every interview he does.

- Brings his kids skating with his dad. He and his dad teach them how to do single jumps.

- He's the kind of dad to talk about his kids any chance he can, just so he can say how proud he is of them.

ilia manilin 🥰 i need more head cannons PLEASE

More Ilia Malinin Dating Headcannons

- Supporting him at most of his competitions. If you can't make it, he will call or facetime you any chance he gets.

- Can we all agree that Ilia has the personality of a golden retriever who just gets excited every time he sees you.

- He would most definitely teach you basic Russian and then get flustered when you speak it to him.

- Please braid his hair. It's long enough, and Ilia would end up falling asleep in front of you.

- If he's tired after training, he will just lie on top of you, no matter if you're working or not, and expects all your attention to be on him.

- Will let you sit beside him when he livestreams, which he later regrets after you and chat gang up on him.

- Being best friends with Jun and Isabeau.

- His favourite way to hug you is from behind with his arms around your shoulders/neck.

- He's like 5 foot 8', so if you're the same height or taller, he gets so flustered when you use it to your advantage, like holding something out of his reach. If you're smaller than him, you will never hear the end of it, and he most definitely uses your shoulder or head as an armrest.

- You sometimes have to remind him to take out his contacts before he goes to sleep. And once you had to take his glasses off when he fell asleep with them on.

- You got him a toothless plushie for his birthday and he couldn't stop smiling the rest of the day.
