akai-echo: “Peeta and I grow back together.” After watching MJ2 several times, a new headcanon came to my mind, where Katniss, during their growing back together period is the stronger one, while Peeta needs time to truly accept his feelings for her. It’s not because he wasn’t sure about them, but because he wasn’t sure of not being a danger to her anymore and for good. I already posted about this, but I feel like saying it again: the way she looked at him throughout the whole growing back together sequence convinced me that she was fully aware of her feelings for him, and couldn’t wait to start their life together, but didn’t trust to let him know, because she felt he wasn’t ready, not yet. In my mind, this movie!Katniss was the most aware between the two of them. She knew they were going to be fine and in love. She fully accepted the fact that Peeta was her destiny, but something in the way she secretly and sweetly smiled at him every time he wasn’t watching her, convinced me that she also knew he needed time to fully recover and was willing to give it to him. For once she was the one waiting for him and he was the one who had to figure some things out. And I kind of love it :) Also, in my mind, what we saw during the “real not real” scene was not the first time they say “I love you” to each other, because there’s no way Peeta would have reacted like that after his girl told him that she loves him for the first time! There must be something else! I talked about this theory with @titania522 and she highly elaborated it, ended up writing an amazing oneshot about it! She started from this general idea I had, and eventually made so much more with it! Giving to my random pointless thoughts a life of their own! So if you’re interested in this theory, but even if you’re not, you should totally read her beautiful piece, you won’t regret it :) Here it is: Come Away With Me - An alternate growing together story. Also, @ombradellaluna made a beautiful fanart after @titania522‘s story. I Feel so lucky to have such talented friends who made such perfect gifts to me!!! -- source link
