Summary: “Does Lucy Gray like you back?” Tigris asked.

Coriolanus hadn’t actually considered that. He’d just assumed she didn’t and never would. He’d grown up with anything he could ever want given to him instantly, but now everything he wanted was impossibly far out of reach. Lucy Gray was no exception.

Or: Coriolanus is a full-time university student, restaurant server, administrative assistant, and on the weekends he cleans and presses gowns. Occasionally he sleeps. So he really doesn't have time to be giving the weird bartender a ride home every night. And he definitely doesn't have time to become obsessed with her.”

"Tastes like bedtime." 😪

“This character is dead in canon” to you. They’re dead in canon to you. To me they’re fine

“This character is dead in canon” then explain to me why they’re still running around and living rent free in my head.

coriolanus: “pls🥺”

I don’t care about it at all (I have carried its weight around like a rock on my chest since the very day it happened)

losing the idgaf war badly (I want to be in love and to have someone be in love with me)

Hurt Zuko, my beloved ❤️‍🩹

He was doing something heroic, probably

Suzanne Collin’s is really obsessed with her blond boys and honestly, im obsessed with her blond boys too

Yeah Zutara supreme 🫡🙏✨🔥🌊❤️💙✨

I think Ryan Gosling and Daniel Craig are both evidence that if you do enough serious films the second you’re free to just be the silly guy you are on the inside you can’t help but commit 120% to the bit

Literally no ship in media hits like Zutara does. dont even try to play with me rn cause I been at this game since the dawn of Internet and my list of ships is endless. Im telling u. NOTHING. the set up, the tension, the absolute thematic parallels that writers nowadays try but can never achieve. Living through it was insane as a pre-teen. Dont play w me right now!! I think in some funny twist of fate and sense, by not making them canon Bryke managed to turn that ship immortal. Cause is tooooo juicy. I actually feel bad for those who dont ship it cause like???

“Why do you deny yourself heaven? Why do you consider yourself undeserving? Why are you afraid of love?”

Watching the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is realizing that despite the obvious implication that Lucy Gray is the songbird and Snow is the Snake…it’s likely the opposite.

Lucy gray controlled the snakes and used them as her weapon of choice, the snake biting him was Lucy’s kiss goodbye. She is the snake.

Snow sold Sejanus out through the jabberjay’s, they were his tool to fly back home and back into power. He is the songbird.

But at the same time…as in her Ballad, Lucy Gray flys away with the mockingjays after she sings the Hanging Tree one final time while fleeing Snow. She is physically a songbird. And Snow chose to work with Dr. Gaul, who created and controlled those snakes. He was the snake who betrayed his friend.

Who is the songbird and who is the snake? It’s unclear, but isn’t that the mystery?
