My sweet angel Peeta deserved so much better, I feel sick when I let myself think about how he will never be the same Peeta again for too long. Katniss deserved better, Finnick deserved better, Prim deserved better.
I’ll tell you who didn’t deserve better? That’s right. The Prim Reaper himself. Idc if he didn’t drop the bombs himself, his idea itself was despicable and really shows how people can do the right thing (the rebellion) for the wrong reasons. There is no doubt in my mind that he would have voted to keep the Hunger Games going for the Capitol kids in a heartbeat. Also, Gale insinuating that he hated Katniss the same way Mutt Peeta does when he watched her play out the star-crossed lover act (to legitimately keep herself and Peeta alive) is almost his worst act, second only to dropping baby bombs (derogatory, not genius like Peeta).
