So, Sunrise on the Reaping huh? That was wild haha…
…
*sobs*
So I’ve been thinking about Sunrise on the Reaping, how it’s gonna play out. You know what would be really depressing?
Haymitch Abernathy, “first” victor from District 12. Winner of the fiftieth Hunger Games and the second Quarter Quell. A poor boy from the Seam who defeated twice the number of tributes. The unlikely champion.
He’d used the Capitol’s arena against itself. He endured extreme pain and injury. He had to witness his beloved Maysilee die right before his eyes. Watched as an ax cut through a girl’s head. Remember the countless young lives he took. The horrors that could have driven him to insanity.
After being announced as the victor and being taken from the arena, he received medical attention before having to sit through countless interviews being watched by everyone in Panem. Haymitch put on a smile, saying exactly what the Capitol wanted him to. The entire time he hid his emotions, not letting anyone see through him.
All Haymitch wanted was to go home. To see his family. He caught a glimpse of them waving and cheering as he stood before the District, but the Peacekeepers wouldn’t let him go to them. His mother, who he could always confide in. His father, who never expected him to say anything but would always listen. His siblings, who he could open up to and show his weaknesses to without being judged. His pet, because he found that being around animals was healing.
He was finally allowed to return to his little home on the edge of the Seam, facing the woods. This was where he grew up. He knew the house to be noisy and warm with fire from the coals harvested by his own father. Haymitch was impatient to step through the door and be greeted by his family, surely proud of him.
But something was different.
Silence. The house was cold, empty, and dark. There was no sign of struggle; all the furniture was standing up, but nothing seemed to be in its normal place. An uncut loaf of bread rested on the kitchen countertop. Everything was clean and perfect. Perfect, except for the lingering smell of blood. Haymitch immediately dropped his things, his victor’s crown clattering to the floor. He felt tears streaming down his face. He took a step forward.
Lying on the dining room table was an ax, and a glass vase holding a singular white rose.
Yeah I write sometimes. Haymitch is my favorite character so obviously I’m going to dump more trauma than necessary on him. It’s how I show affection 🫶
I am not exaggerating when I tell you I screamed and immediately started working on fanart when I heard Sunrise on the Reaping was coming out, I’ve been waiting for this for idfk 4 years?? Which isn’t very long but I’m quite impatient
The drawings above were made by me :D there’s the full picture, then a close up of the rose + ax and another of Haymitch. Woody did an amazing job as Haymitch but my heart belongs to the book accurate POC version of him ☺️ I suggest clicking on the images to see them better
Sorry if everything looks weird :/ I’m not used to drawing stuff like this
peeta the horse is here

little work in progress rn of how I imagined some stuff ppl in the capitol would wear
i decided to design an arena bc why not.
stuff abt the arena:
•starts midday but after the first night the sun doesn’t rise
•the only light comes from bioluminescent algae in the water
•the only dirt is around the cornucopia, otherwise it’s only seas and trees
•there are edible fish in the water if u can catch them
•I wrote out some other stuff so if u can read my handwriting then there’s that
here’s an Odesta for the first time in months
The only family he has.
Who told me it was a good idea to draw a piece with almost 50 CHARACTERS in it
I’m suffering
I've already warned all my family, friends, and coworkers about how insufferable I'm going to be until this book is released
The scene that made my dumb kid brain go “oh she does love him….”
Mais doodles de jogos vorazes que eu fiz no começo do ano passado
eng: more hunger games doodles i made at the beginning of last year
Realized I hadn't given Johanna an official design and that seemed like a crime
HI! I've been busy with work and other projects, but I really missed drawing my two favorites so Here's a sketch of Finnick and Annie giggling over something only they find funny

Not too close.
District 4 victors I've come up with
Bonus: Annie reassuring him about it post reunion
I was looking at my drawing I did of Finnick from a few days ago and thought the random stray hair highlights I added actually looked more like gray hairs. And then I couldn't shake the idea of (handsome, darling of The Capitol) Finnick going gray at 24 from all the stess, bad diet, lack of light, etc that he went through at the beginning of Mockingjay

A real kiss in the snow this time
"...I had to forgive Finnick for his role in the conspiracy that landed me here. He, at least, has some idea of what I'm going through. And It takes too much energy to stay angry at someone who cries so much." -Mockingjay, pg 12
Lazy Summer Morning
There's a specific pain to hating only 25% of a drawing.
Not enough to scrap it
But so much to fix
Some of the Careers I've come up with for the 71st Hunger Games. I'm not technically writing a OC games type story (Its about Annie as a mentor) but they're in there.
