okay, so I'm re-reading the hunger games series and I have been seeing posts in English about it for years, and in a lot of posts talked about, uh, Glimmer and I was always like, who is Glimmer? Because I didn't remember her and I was just like, oh I must have forgotten her. but now I'm re-reading them here in Italian. I just figured out that glimmer is Lux. Like in Italian, her name is Lux. And that is like, why did they do that? That that's like the only name they changed. Everything else like Cato pita, everyone else. Same name her looks instead of glimmer. I don't know bye
why do young people live in a constant state of yearning for the present? why do we sing of staying forever young before being able to experience adulthood? what brought us here? what made us fear growing up so much?

What is thy business with these files?
I was entrusted this, for thee, a summary of the last meeting.
Thou art of passing skill, this excel list is perfect!
I doubt we shall again meet. I am only helping out on this project.
"that trope is so overused in fanfiction"
no. i have never once looked at fanfic and thought "i wish there weren't so many amortentia Aus" "i wish they didn't always have that Oh, Oh moment" "i wish there weren't so many jokes alluding to canon"
in fact, i want more. make more silly little jokes about reg drowning. give me the oh moment again.
i will read the same trope over and over again, that's what fanfiction is for
