Annotating Catching Fire | Chapters 13 And 14

Added: 2026-05-12

[00:00:01]What are we annotating? 13 and 14 chapters. It's on 34 pages. I double checked um before today's stream. So, I'm hoping we can get that done in under two hours today. Um we're going live on YouTube right now. I got to double check the audio.

[00:00:34]Sounds like it's working. It's a bit quiet, but that's fine. That's fine.

[00:00:40]You guys can just turn it up to the max volume. It's great. It's fine.

[00:00:49]Okay, I'm just cleaning my glasses because the book is located a bit further away. Um, I got to be able to see guys.

[00:01:00]We're also at 2,500 subscribers, which is pretty cool. Um, ignore all background noise from my house because I live with many other people.

[00:01:15]I can't even remember where we were up to, like what was happening when I stopped.

[00:01:23]I know we did body and twirl.

[00:01:26]Let me have a little bit of a look.

[00:01:28]Let's see. We've actually done so much.

[00:01:31]I think we're almost halfway through annotating this book. Has 27 total chapters of um Oh, they've just announced that Katniss is going back into the arena. They've announced twist for the core.

[00:01:48]Okay.

[00:01:50]and Katniss has gone running.

[00:01:59]So, um, hello everyone just joining the stream. We're annotating chapters 13 and 14 today of Catching Fire. Get out your own books if you want and annotate along with me.

[00:02:12]I'm going to start reading it. I'm actually standing right now and not sitting on a chair. I need to sit down.

[00:02:20]Oh my god, seven people already. Hello everyone. Okay, chapter 13. Catching fire. My body reacts before my mind does and I'm running out of the door. Cross the lawns of the victor's village into the dark beyond.

[00:02:38]Moisture from the southern ground soaks my socks and I'm aware of the sharp bite of the wind. But I don't stop. Where?

[00:02:45]Where to go? The woods, of course. I'm at the makes me remember how very trapped I am. I back away panting, turn on my heel, and take off again.

[00:02:58]I like the imagery in this section.

[00:03:03]How very Oh, I forgot that I needed a different highlighter.

[00:03:11]Just out my other highlighter that I have somewhere in my desk that my camera is kind of like blocking.

[00:03:20]Go back. Where are my other highlighter in this color? Actually, that's very disappointing.

[00:03:33]Damn. Now I have to use this stupid highlighter. It's running out of ink and everything. I can't believe this. I guess I could use pink, but I don't use like a different color. Guys, this is a dilemma.

[00:03:50]finding these things.

[00:03:53]There's too many people watching me. I'm going to have to go with like the highlighter without any ink. Damn, so annoying. Okay.

[00:04:05]Okay. Um I'm going to have to not highlight the entire page, guys. Every of every single page.

[00:04:14]This is so disappointing.

[00:04:17]Can't believe I don't have another orange highlighter.

[00:04:21]I'm aware of the sharp bites of the wind.

[00:04:29]As I was saying, this is going to drive me to I can't use a highlighter.

[00:04:51]I use normal colors for just a random like I could just use yellow instead of orange.

[00:05:01]I'm sorry.

[00:05:07]Let me get out all my highlighters. See how dumb I am.

[00:05:11]See, look at all the colors I have for highlighters, guys.

[00:05:20]Even purple for sunrise on everything highlighted. I have these things, the little the little ducks.

[00:05:36]They're joining us today on this because I'm disappointed in myself, guys. I'm so annoyed.

[00:05:53]Oh my god, I have an orange text. That's I'm so annoyed.

[00:06:03]So annoyed.

[00:06:10]Do I just use myself to keep myself grounded?

[00:06:35]I need more ducks to join us on.

[00:06:47]This is ridiculous.

[00:06:51]Someone vote in the comment section.

[00:06:52]Yellow highlighter or pink highlighter?

[00:06:56]Guys, I've run out of ink. this highlighter. Yellow highlighter or pink highlighter to replace the orange. Someone tell me right now.

[00:07:07]These highlighters, they suck.

[00:07:10]No one's going to answer me in the comments. That's fine.

[00:07:15]Wait, I'm so annoyed.

[00:07:25]This is my own fault. Okay, yellow highlighter it is. Unless anyone wants Don't use the yellow highlighter for hunger. I don't want to do that. Pink highlighter is close enough.

[00:07:45]How close is it? Actually, not really.

[00:07:50]Everyone name the ducks in the comments section.

[00:08:04]Okay, next paragraph. Let's move on. The next thing I know, I'm on my hands and knees in the cellar of one of the empty houses in the victor's village. Faint shafts of moonlight come in through the windows windows above my head.

[00:08:19]This is really good imagery, actually.

[00:08:22]See, this is why I needed a highlighter out.

[00:08:25]What the hell?

[00:08:28]He's telling me the pink highlighter doesn't Wow. I just highlighted that and it didn't work at all.

[00:08:41]I have some things that I would like to speak to with anchor speak about what I have some things I need to bring up to anchor. What is that? What is that?

[00:08:56]See if this pink highlighting works. I'm having trouble with highlighting today.

[00:09:00]It's the universe's way of telling me not to highlight most of the page.

[00:09:06]I'm having a day. I'm having a freaking day.

[00:09:13]It's got so much. It's going to bleed through. Look at that. Oh my god.

[00:09:31]What about this one?

[00:09:35]Orange coloring pencil. It's frustrating when it works. I don't know if I have an orange.

[00:09:42]This is going so well, guys. This is my dream is to have this happen to me on stream.

[00:09:59]I've located an orange highlighter, but I reckon it's going to bleed through. I don't know if I have an orange pencil, though.

[00:10:15]I do have an orange pencil. Let's see what works.

[00:10:20]I could always if I use an orange pencil, I can go back over it with an orange highlighter later.

[00:10:26]Maybe that's a good idea.

[00:10:34]How annoyed am I going to be by this?

[00:10:38]Probably very annoyed. But this is this is a good solution. I'm taking a solution right now because I can't deal with the bleed through from Yeah. No, you know what? That works well enough.

[00:10:54]Thank you for telling me that because I was going to spend the whole stream complaining about it and I don't think that would be very entertaining for you guys at all at all. Um, in that whole thing here, we have um these ducks I hurt because I have all my ducks in a row cuz I'm that organized.

[00:11:18]Jesus Christ. Okay, this is fine.

[00:11:22]Moving on. Okay.

[00:11:26]Faint shafts of moonlight come in through the window wells above my head.

[00:11:30]I'm cold and wet and winded, but my escape attempt has done nothing to subdue the hysteria rising up inside me.

[00:11:36]It will drown me unless it's released. I pull up the front of my shirt, stuff in my mouth, and begin to scream. How long this continues, I don't know.

[00:11:46]But when I stop, my voice is almost gone. I curl up on my side and stare at the patches of moonlight on the cement floor. But back in the arena, wow, I love the imagery in this section. I honestly before I started highlighting this, um, it highlighting it. Look at me with my amazing little orange pencil.

[00:12:11]It's doing so well. I was making sure I was orange and I wasn't color blind actually. I'm sorry. I'm really overwhelmed from that whole ordeal.

[00:12:21]Um, welcome everyone joining the stream as well. Um, we're doing chapters 13 and 14 today of Catching Fire and we're just discussing the imagery used today um by Suzanne Collins.

[00:12:43]I love when an author adds some like really good imagery, you know? So great in this section.

[00:12:53]Imagina.

[00:12:57]Back in the place of nightmares. That's where I'm going. I have to admit, I didn't see it coming. I saw a multitude of other things. Being publicly humiliated, tortured, and executed, fleeing the wilderness, pursued by peacekeepers and hovercraft, marriage to people of our children, forced into the arena. But never that I but never that I myself would have to be play in the games again. Why? Because there's no precedent for it. Victors are out reading for life. That's the deal if you win until now.

[00:13:28]Um, everyone who's joining as well, feel free to Annotate along with me. Make suggestions about my annotations if you'd like as well.

[00:13:38]There's some kind of sheeting, the kind they put down when they paint. I pull it over me like a blanket. In a distance, someone is calling my name. But at the moment, I excuse myself from thinking about even those I love most. I think only of me and what lies ahead. The sheeting stiff but holds warmth.

[00:13:58]Am I um highlight. This is a part of the imagery as well. Highlight with my really trusty pencil.

[00:14:19]I'm going to pretend like I was not overwhelmed going into this live stream at all. At all.

[00:14:27]In fact, I was so put together.

[00:14:30]I'm never going to speak of that again.

[00:14:33]The sheeting stiff boat holds my muscles relaxed. My heart slows. I see the wooden box in a little boy's hand.

[00:14:39]President Snow drawing out the yellow envelope.

[00:14:48]Looks I can't see on the other side.

[00:14:49]Everyone should use a pencil to highlight things instead.

[00:14:56]Is it possible that this was really the cortical written down 75 years ago?

[00:15:01]Seems unlikely.

[00:15:05]Okay, this is important because of the gangs being raped as well.

[00:15:23]The games are definitely rigged.

[00:15:37]It's just too perfect an answer for the troubles that face the capital today.

[00:15:43]Getting rid of and rid of me and doing the districts all in one neat little package. Well, there are multiple people, you know, that they need to to do.

[00:15:58]Not just Candace and Peter. Not just Katniss.

[00:16:01]See, that's her bias narration coming through.

[00:16:46]There are multiple victors and native subduing.

[00:16:50]I hear President Snow's voice in my head on 75th anniversary as a reminder to the rebels that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the capital. The male and female tributes will be reaped from their from their existing pool of victors.

[00:17:06]>> Yes, victors are our strongest. They're the ones who survive the arena. It's the noose of poverty that strangles the rest of us.

[00:17:16]They or should I say we are the very embodiment of hope where there is no hope and 23 of us will be killed to show how even that hope was an illusion.

[00:17:28]That's a very powerful quote as well.

[00:17:35]The common theme throughout the entirety of Susan Collins the Hunger Games is hope. She even uses a motif to represent this hope which is the thing in the spring that is presented via Peter's characterization.

[00:17:57]I'm glad I won only last year.

[00:17:59]Otherwise, I know all the other victors.

[00:18:02]Not just because I see them on television, but because they're guests at Epic Games. Even if they're not mentoring, my Cage always has to be the most return of capital each year for the offense. Most I think a lot of them are friends, whereas the only friend I'll have to worry about killing will be either Peter or Hitch. Peter or Hitch. I sit up straight. I sit straight up. I read that wrong. I sit straight up. throwing off the sheeting. What just went through my mind? There's no situation in which I would ever kill Peter or Hammond, but one of them will be in the room with me.

[00:18:33]And that's a fact. They may even they may even they may have even decided between them who it will be picked first. The others will be have the option of volunteering to take his place. I already know what will happen.

[00:18:47]Peter will ask Hish to let him go into the arena with me no matter what for my sake to protect me.

[00:19:14]How much later? I'm just mentioning it now. Took her long enough to realize.

[00:19:19]Um, I stumbled around the cellar looking for an exit. How did I even get into this place? Feel my way up the steps of the kitchen and see the glass window and the door has been shattered. Katniss must be why my hand seems to be bleeding. Jesus, she just really blacked out there.

[00:19:42]Oh, knocking all my ducks in a row away.

[00:19:47]I'm just going to to the side.

[00:20:42]hurry back into the night and head straight to Hammer's house.

[00:20:46]He's sitting alone at the kitchen table, half empty body, a bottle of white liqu and the other drunk as a skunk.

[00:20:55]Oh, there she is. All tuck it out.

[00:20:57]Finally did the math. Did the math.

[00:21:02]I feel like that doesn't make any grammatical sense, but moving on.

[00:21:07]Finally did the math. Did you, sweetheart? It worked out. You won't be going in alone. And now you can ask me what he says.

[00:21:20]I don't answer. The windows wide open and the wind cuts through me just as if I were outside. I'll admit it was easier for the boy. He was here before I could snap the seal on a bottle, begging me for another chance to go in. But what can you say? Mimic my voice. Take his place. Because all things being equal, I'd rather Peter know how to crack with the rest of his life than you.

[00:21:44]Well, well, I think Hitch wants to um Hey, Mitch wants to be with a lot more D.

[00:22:17]Oh my m been through so much.

[00:22:22]I got my lip because once you set it, I'm afraid that's what I what I do want.

[00:22:27]This ain't going to make sure that ink is dry first.

[00:22:35]for Peter to live. Even if it means Hamage is death. No, I don't. He's dreadful, of course, but Hamish is my family now.

[00:22:43]>> What did I come for? I think. What could I possibly want here? He came for a drink. I say, "No, I'm going to write that one down."

[00:23:01]Peter gets so mad at this as well.

[00:23:07]How much better laughing and slams the bottle on the table before me. I run my sleeve across the top and take a couple gulps before I come up choking. It takes a few minutes to compose myself and then my eyes and nose are still screaming, but inside me the liquor feels like fire and I like it. Maybe it should be you, I say matterofactly as I pull up my chair. You hate life. Anyway, I just noticed a new bruise on my arm.

[00:23:35]>> Did anyone else notice that bruise?

[00:23:38]>> I didn't. I for sure did not.

[00:23:41]>> Very true, says Hitch. And since last time I tried to keep you alive, seems like I'm obligated to save the boy this time.

[00:23:50]Uh, yes.

[00:23:56]That's another good point. I say wiping my nose and ting off the bottle again.

[00:24:01]Peter's argument is that since I chose you, I now owe him anything he wants.

[00:24:06]And what he wants is a chance to go again to protect you. Says homage.

[00:24:11]I knew it. In this way, Peter's not hard to project. While I'm walling around on the floor of that cell, thinking I myself was here thinking of only me.

[00:24:20]Shame isn't strong enough isn't a strong enough word for what I feel.

[00:24:41]Okay, we're highlighting this section.

[00:24:54]You could live a 100 lifetimes and not deserve him. You know Hammet says open up. I feel like you could dissect his mind a lot different ways. Is he thinking perhaps the same of Zenor dove in that way?

[00:25:25]you know, he is Katniss and her job is Peter. I think a lot of people have interpreted it that way.

[00:25:32]>> Um, it could just be that, you know, I think maybe that's the only interpretation. I was trying to think of like different ways you could interpret it. I'm so tired.

[00:25:46]Um yeah, literally that he's being cruel.

[00:25:56]But >> what is that?

[00:26:01]>> Yeah. Yeah. I say brusly. Brusley.

[00:26:04]Brrisley. Can't be briskly spelled different. No question. He's the superior one in this trio. So what are you going to do? Hamage also is reminiscing on how much better he could have been had Lenor Dove not died when she did. That's the other I forgot the other meaning. Perhaps he's also reflecting on the life he could have had.

[00:26:29]>> I don't know how much time go back in with you. Maybe if I can my name's drawn at the briefing. It won't matter. Just volunteer to take my sit for a while in silence. It would be bad for you and you would no one will be able to say. Oh, I think we can count on it being unbearable wherever I am. You know the bottle. Can I have that back now? No, I say wrapping my arms around it. Hitch pulls another bottle out from under the table and gives the top a twist. But I realize I'm not just here for a drink. Something else I want some.

[00:27:03]Okay, I figured out what I was when I last Peter and James. This time we try to keep him alive.

[00:27:11]Something flickers across his bloodshed eyes. Pain >> because it's his best friend's daughter.

[00:27:20]Oh my god.

[00:27:23]And his sweetheart.

[00:27:24]Get Get away from me. That's his sweetheart. He's going to lose his sweetheart again. Oh my god.

[00:27:35]Oh my god. His contacts this time, man.

[00:27:38]That hit hard. That hit real hard, man.

[00:27:41]Damn. that's so bad.

[00:28:07]That was awful. Never make me read that line again.

[00:28:11]Like you said, it's going to be bad no matter how you slice it and whatever Peter wants. I think the worst case scenario is Hannah's dying very much.

[00:28:20]Write that down, too.

[00:28:46]He remembered in that moment.

[00:28:54]>> Nothing he could There was nothing he could do to save Luella, but there's something he could do to save Katniss.

[00:29:04]So he chooses Katniss anyway for the rebellion for the little dove and for his sweetheart. Oh my god.

[00:29:12]Oh my god. And what that's just I need to write that down.

[00:30:32]Please speak to me for business.

[00:30:36]I woke up here once. It's his turn to be saved. We both owe him that.

[00:30:43]My voice takes on a pleading tone.

[00:30:45]Besides, the capital hates me so much.

[00:30:47]I'm as good as dead now. He might He still might have a chance. Please hang.

[00:30:52]Say you help me.

[00:30:55]France in his bottle weighing my words.

[00:30:57]All right, he says finally. Thanks. I say he's lying. He's lying to you counters.

[00:31:10]I should go see Peter now, but I don't want to. My head's spinning from the drunk and I'm so Now I have to go home to face my mother and Prim.

[00:31:22]Candace man, her life's a mess.

[00:31:29]As I stare up the steps of my house, the front doors open and g me into his arms.

[00:31:33]I was wrong. We should have gone when you said, he whispers.

[00:31:38]No, I say I'm having trouble focusing and liing out of my bottle and down back of jacket and he doesn't seem to care.

[00:31:47]Oopsies. It's not too late. He says over his shoulder. I see my mother and prank clutching each other in the door. They die. Now I've got Peter to protect. End of discussion.

[00:32:00]Yeah, it is. My knees give way. He's holding me up as a water bottle shower on the floor. This seems appropriate since I have obviously lost my grip on everything. I feel you, Candace. I feel you.

[00:32:27]I mean, my pencil gets wild, guys.

[00:32:33]When I wake up, I barely get to the toilet before the white liquor makes it appearance. It burns just as much coming up as it did going down and tastes twice as bad. I'm trembling and sweating when I finish vomiting, but at least most of the out of my system and made it into my bloodstream to result in a pounding headache, partial mouth, and a boiling stomach.

[00:32:53]>> That kids is why we don't drink.

[00:32:56]>> I turn on the shower and stand under the warm rain for a minute before I realize I'm still in my clothes.

[00:33:02]My mother must have just stripped off my filthy outer ones and ting and I thunder on my head. My hands sting and that's when I stitches small palm up the side of the other hand. I remember breaking glass. I scrub myself from head to toe only stopping to throw up again right in the shower.

[00:33:24]Yummy. It's mostly just vile when it goes down the drain with the sweet smelling bubbles.

[00:33:37]Finally clean, I pull on my robe and head back to to bed. Ignoring my dripping under the what it must be like to be poisoned about that.

[00:34:01]I think the description was accurate about um it's also on the theme of being poisoned by a snow.

[00:34:18]The footsteps on the stairs my panic from last night. I'm not ready to see my mother to be calm and reassuring the way I was when we said our goodbyes.

[00:34:28]the day of her last briefing.

[00:34:31]I have to be strong. I struggle into an upright position. Push back my push my wet hair off my growing temples and brace myself to their faces.

[00:34:42]Open my mouth to start off with some kind of joke and burst into tears. So much for being strong.

[00:35:12]Another sits on the side of the bed and crawls right up next to me and they hold me making quiet soothing sounds until a towel and dries my hair out the knots.

[00:35:43]They dress me in warm pajamas and lay blankets on me and I'm drinking kind of want to highlight this whole this whole page. We're not going that far today cuz I got pencil instead of a highlighter. But, you know, I'm going to highlight this.

[00:36:18]This is irritating. I want to highlight this because it is like a good representation of relationships and when she's vulnerable, what happens?

[00:36:30]I'm going to write that down as an annotation as well soon as I'm finished highlighting slashc coloring in this paragraph myself today.

[00:37:54]So wonderful right now.

[00:38:17]I can tell by the lights. It's late afternoon when I come around again.

[00:38:22]There's a glass of water on my bedside table and I go up down firstly. My stomach and head still feel rocky but much better than they did earlier. I run as dress and braid back my hair before I go down. I pause at the top of the stairs feeling slightly embarrassed about the way I came with the knees of my erratic fighting payment weeping under circumstances. I guess they deserve one day of indulgence. I'm glad the here for their own downstairs. My mother and Prim embrace me again, but they're not overly emotional. I know they're holding things in.

[00:38:57]Looking at Prim's face, it's hard to imagine she's the same little girl I left behind every day 9 months ago.

[00:39:09]I think this paragraph is what led to the conversation in the snow in the movie because that conversation isn't just combination of that or deal and all that has followed the cruel district of sick sh's grown quite a bit too practically the same height now but that isn't what makes her seem so much older I just have a mature exper some trauma child about my mother ladles out of my world for me and I asked for a sip of mud to take to hitchhil off and watching the sunset.

[00:41:03]I hear someone walking around upstairs and assume it's Hazel. But a few minutes later, Peter comes down and a cardboard box of empty liquor bottles on the table.

[00:41:12]>> Yeah, it's done.

[00:41:14]It's taking all of Ham's resources to focus his eyes on the bottle. What's done?

[00:41:21]I poured all the liquid down the drain, says Peter. This seems to jolt H out of the stuper and he falls through the box.

[00:41:28]You what?

[00:41:30]I toss them up, says Peter. Just more. I say no, he won't. I tracked down Ripper this morning and told her I'd turn her into the second she sold to either of you to just measure, but I don't think she's eager to be back in the peacekeepers custody. Now, tough tough takes a swipe with his knife, but Peter dislikes it so easily. It's pathetic.

[00:42:09]Anger rises up at me. What business is it of yours what he's done? It's completely my business or what he does.

[00:42:16]It's completely my business. However it falls out, however it falls out, two of us are going to be in the arena again with other we can't afford any drunkards on this team. Especially not to me. What? I swear it indignantly. It would be more convincing if I was like still so hung over.

[00:42:36]Last night's the only time I've ever been drunk. I've ever even been drunk.

[00:42:40]Okay.

[00:42:42]Well, actually, she's been a I won't say drunk, but she's been a little tipsy in the Hunger Games. When she first tasted I I think it was maybe wine in the Hunger Games while she was in the capital's custody before the games. She's a little tipsy. She wasn't drunk. So, Not exactly lying, but she's had like she's been pipsy.

[00:43:29]Yeah. And look at the shape you're in, says Peter. I don't know what I expected from my first meeting. You know, after the announcement announcement, a few hugs and kisses, a little comfort, maybe not this. I turn to Hitch. Don't worry, I'll get you some more.

[00:43:45]Then I'll turn you both in. Let you sober up in the socks, says Peter.

[00:43:49]What's the point to this? Ask Hitch.

[00:44:00]She like wants that kind of concept from here.

[00:44:39]The point is that two of us are coming home from the capital. One mentor and one victing recordings of the all the living victors. We're going to watch their games and learn everything we can about how they fight. We're going to put on weight and get strong. We're going to start acting like careers and one of us is going to be be victor again. Whatever you two, whether you two like it or not, he sweeps out of the room. the front door. At this point, Peter thinks he's dead.

[00:45:06]So, he's like, "These two idiots better survive.

[00:46:16]highlighting this part because this is important information for when the text come out of the bang. I don't like self-righteous people. I say what's to like say who begins sucking the drugs out of the you says h but after a few days we agree to act like careers because this is the best way to get ready every night we watch the old recaps of the games that the remaining victors that must be traumatic.

[00:47:11]special. Did I spell that wrong?

[00:47:16]I did. I thought I was spelling it wrong for a second.

[00:47:26]What a day.

[00:47:59]I realize we have never met any of them on the victory tour which seems odd in retrospect. When I bring out parents is the last thing that I would have wanted was to show me especially me bonding with other victious districts especially Finn. Don't bond with Finn.

[00:48:20]Victors have a special status and if they appear to be supporting my defiance of the capital would have been dangerous politically. Adjusting for my age I realize adjusting for age I realize some of our opponents may be elderly which is quite sad and reassuring.

[00:48:35]Peter takes copious notes. much long tears information about the victor's personality. And slowly we begin to competition Just notice something.

[00:49:42]Every morning we do exercises to strengthen our bodies. We run and lift things and stretch our muscles. Every afternoon we work on combat skills, throwing knives, fighting hands to hand over and teach them to climb trees.

[00:49:54]Officially the trees aren't supposed to train, but no one tries to Even in regular years, the previous districts one, two, and four show up able to wield spears and swords. This is nothing comparison.

[00:50:08]After all the the years of his body resist improvement, he's still remarkably strong, but the shortest run meant him. And you think a guy who with a knife might actually be able to hit the side of the house, but his hand shape so badly takes weeks for him to achieve that.

[00:50:25]He excel under the new regimen though.

[00:50:28]It gives me something to do. It gives us all something to do besides accepted. My mother puts us on a special diet to gain weight treats our sore muscles. Mother's capital newspapers.

[00:50:41]Oh man, the little the little rebel in comparison.

[00:50:51]Amazing.

[00:51:16]Predictions on who will be the predictions on who will be victor of the victor chalice among favorites.

[00:51:28]Even Gail steps into the picture on Sundays. Although he's got no love for Peter and he does all snide whatever issues they have about is important to note about their characterization. They want they both want One night as I'm walking back into town, he admits it would be better if he easier to hate. Tell me about it. I could have just hated him in the he now.

[00:52:39]Where would we be? Katniss ask why would you ask that?

[00:52:46]There you go.

[00:53:04]Test testing what to say. Where would I be with my pretend cousin? It wouldn't be my cousin if it weren't, you know, would he have still kissed me? And would I have kissed him back? And had I been free to do so, would I let myself open that's important to highlight as well.

[00:53:40]She doesn't want kids because it's very important for their um fores um relationship as well. I can't think of a word. I'm so tired. I'm so tired.

[00:54:14]hunting. Like every Sunday I say, I know he doesn't doesn't mean the question literally, but this is as much as I can honestly give. At least she's honest. At least At least she's honest.

[00:54:39]General knows what he says.

[00:54:52]I chose him when I make a run for it. To me, there's no point in talking about things that might have been. Even if I killed Peter, I still wouldn't have when they only got engaged to save people's lives and that completely backfired.

[00:55:07]>> Afraid anyway that any kind of emotional scene of Gail might force him to do something drastic uprising and as H says district 12 isn't ready for that. If anything, they're less ready than before announcement because following morning peacekeepers arrived on the train. They were prepared for people to stage an uprising after that announcement.

[00:55:29]I don't plan on making it back alive a second time. The sooner lets me go, the better. I do plan on saying one or two things to him with everything.

[00:55:43]How much better my life has been knowing him for loving him even if it's only in the limited way that I can manage. I think that's also important for their relationship. So I'm going to highlight that.

[00:56:17]I never get the chance. The day of the raping hot and sultry and a population should talk like sweating and silently square with machine guns on the wall just like games.

[00:56:40]It's a trying thing.

[00:57:20]during the time stand alone in a small area with Peter and Page and a similar pen to the right of me.

[00:57:36]takes a minute shining in a wig of metallic gold.

[00:57:43]Um, she has to call around the girls for quite a while of paper that everyone has on it.

[00:57:53]This is changing and she captures name.

[00:58:08]He barely has time to shoot me unhappy look before Peter has volunteered to take his place.

[00:58:16]We immediately marched into the justice building to find head peacekeeper threat waiting for us. procedures out of the back door into a car and taken into the train station. There are no tamers on the platform and appeared escorted by peacekeepers all to the train door and I'm staring out the windows watching disappear all my still hanging on my lips.

[00:58:45]That's so brutal. Write that down. That reaction. Um, I feel like this gives a different tone than in the movies. Um, but it's still like very like in the movies it's more like panicked.

[00:59:06]This in the books is more like just acceptance. Mean like what was I supposed to do? You know, how could it have been different?

[00:59:22]This is the She's the one.

[00:59:44]hates games as well. They don't get a goodbye necessarily after they're booted. Um, it's only because it's negotiated by police so they get their goodbyes so he can get shots of his family being upset that he got raped.

[01:00:05]It's all part of the propaganda.

[01:00:09]Chapter 14.

[01:00:13]We have more pages to go. I'm a liar. Actually, that's not all what how many pages I have left.

[01:00:32]Oh my god.

[01:00:36]Is that right?

[01:00:42]Yeah. That's too many pages, man. Too many pages.

[01:00:52]I remain at the window long after the woods have swallowed up the last glimpse of my heart. This time I have I don't have even the slightest hope of return.

[01:01:01]Before my first games, I promised Prim to do all I can to keep Peter alive. I will never reverse this journey again.

[01:01:12]I mean, she doesn't. Oh, no, she does.

[01:01:15]She died in Jay at the end after the rebellion.

[01:01:20]I actually figured out what I wanted my last words to my loved ones to be. How the clothes look and leave them sad but behind you know stolen that as well.

[01:01:29]Highlight that emphasis Write letters, T says Peter from behind me. It will be better anyway. A piece of us to hold on to. Cambridge will deliver them for us if they need to be delivered.

[01:02:10]I know I'm going straight to my room. I sit on the bed knowing I will never write those letters. There will be like this church right on things clear in my head and even when I talked before the crowd the words never came out of the camera besides they were meant to open braces and kisses a cassive gess face. Come on now squeeze of M's hand they cannot be delivered with a wooden box containing my cold body.

[01:02:41]Two hearts to cry. I want to all I want is to pill up on a bed arriving the capital tomorrow morning. But I have a mission. No, it's more than a mission.

[01:02:53]It's my dying wish. Keep Peter like Oh my god. This is the chapter where Hitch's games.

[01:02:59]This is the first time I'm like properly reading it all since reading Sunrise and the Reaping as well. I haven't reread this. I'm excited now. And as Hang on, what was I up to? And as unlikely as it seems that I can achieve it in the face of anger, disappointed that I be at the top of my game like this because this has to do with anger as well and that's also common theme of Katniss and her anger that takes over.

[01:03:34]I just want to highlight most.

[01:03:42]>> This won't happen if I'm mourning for everyone I look back. Let them go, I tell myself. Say goodbye. My best thinking them one by one.

[01:03:51]Releasing them like birds from the protective cages inside. Bird imagery again. Got to highlight that. Locking the doors against their return.

[01:04:27]By the time my daughter call me, but the lightness is entirely unwelcome.

[01:04:34]The mill subdued. So subdue the fact that there are long periods of silence removal of old dishes and presentation cold soup of pure vegetables. I was I was highlighting food and I forgot to Cold soup of pure pureeed vegetables.

[01:05:16]Fish cakes with creamy lime paste.

[01:05:21]Those little birds filled with orange sauce with mild rice and water crest.

[01:05:25]Chocolate custard with cherries. Yum.

[01:05:30]>> Except the cold soup. I would not like that.

[01:05:59]Peter and Effie make occasional turns of conversation that quickly die out. I love your new hair. Peter says, "Thank you. I had it especially done to match Cat's pen. I was thinking we might get you a golden ankle band and maybe find him a gold bracelet or something so we can all look like a team.

[01:06:21]Evidently, if he doesn't know that my mocking pen mocking J pen is now symbol used by the rebels, at least in district 8 in the capital, mocking J is still a fun reminder of especially exciting bands. What else could it be? Real rebels don't put a secret symbol. real bread wolves that put a secret symbol on something as dro that can be eaten in seconds if necessary.

[01:06:51]The beginning of the golden alliance.

[01:06:53]Yeah.

[01:07:36]Evidently, if he doesn't know that Oh, hang on. I just read that paragraph.

[01:07:40]Don't mind me. I think it's a great idea, says Peter. How about it, Hitch?

[01:07:44]Yeah, whatever, says Hitch. He's not drinking, but I can tell he'd like to do. Eie have them take her own wine moment. She saw the effort he was making. That's so cute. But in a miserable state.

[01:08:04]See, Eie saw him um what what it was. Um Eie, what is the word? E saw him go into his alcoholism.

[01:08:28]Fall into alcoholism. I don't know.

[01:08:30]We're about to write it down and see what happens with the wedding. Amazing.

[01:08:35]Okay, that's especially even though I clearly can't.

[01:08:55]So since I'm just so I can spell it right. I'm really great at spelling.

[01:09:25]>> If he were the tribute, he would have owed Peter nothing and he could have could be as drunk as he liked. Now it's going to take all he's got to keep Peter alive of his old friends and he'll probably fail.

[01:09:39]Maybe we get could get you a big too. I say in terms of that lightness just shoots me a look that says to leave him alone and you'll eat our custard silence.

[01:10:25]Just write down here as well.

[01:10:46]"Shall we watch the recap of the reaping?" says Eie, dabbing the corners of her mouth with a white linen napkin.

[01:10:53]Peter goes off to retrieve his notebook in the on the remaining living victors and we gather in the compartment the television to see who our competition will be in the arena. We are all in a As the anthem begins to play in the annual recap of the reaping ceremonies in the 12 districts begins.

[01:11:12]In the history of the games, there have been 75 witnesses. 59 are still alive.

[01:11:23]That is a lot more than what we think.

[01:11:27]Actually, I recognize many of their faces either from seeing them or mentors at previous games or from a recent reviewing of the victed by illness drugs that I can't as one would expect because of care tributar but every district has managed to scrape at least one female and one male victor.

[01:11:55]This is the first time we're introduced to characters like um Finnick. We've had Joanna mentioned in the first Hunger Games novel.

[01:12:07]I don't think we've had anyone else mentioned other than J.

[01:12:12]Um, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think so.

[01:12:16]So, this is the first time we're introduced to like naming of these victors. The rings go by quickly. Pet Stiously put stars by the names of the chosen tributes in his notebook. Hamage watches his face devoid of emotion as friends as friends of his step up take the stage. Eie makes hush distress comments like oh not Cecilia or well Chaff could never stay out of fight frequently. Effie Effie. Come on.

[01:13:20]for my part. I try to make some mental record of the attributes, but like last year my head is a classically beautiful brother and a sister from Bishop who are victims and consecutive.

[01:13:34]Oh, Brutus, a volunteer from district two who must be at least 40 and apparently can't wait to get back in.

[01:13:46]I don't want to highlight all of this.

[01:13:49]Um, but this is interesting.

[01:13:52]Brother and sister when she was little. So, hang on. Take what year was born in?

[01:14:03]She's 16 by the 74th.

[01:14:06]Take 10 64.

[01:14:11]Um 60 58. She was born on the 58th Hunger Games, 8 years after the brain is doing that really slow right now. Um, 's mother was 24 when she had her.

[01:14:53]>> Interesting.

[01:15:00]>> Um, when she was little, so they won in the probably the 60s something comedy games.

[01:15:08]Don't worry about Bruno. We don't need to know about him. Vinnick, the handsome bronze guy from District 4 who was crowned 10 years ago at the age of 14.

[01:15:20]Highlights about obviously hysterical young woman with brown flowing brown hair is also called from four but she's quickly replaced by a volunteer an 80year-old woman came to the stage as bags. Annie and Max, Mason, who the only female victor from seven, which they potentially could have more victors than just who won a few years back by pretending she was a weakling. So, she's not very A woman from eight who Anthony call who looks about 30 has to detach herself from three kids who run up.

[01:16:42]traffic from who I know to be one of the friends has also been Cecilia is so devastating.

[01:16:56]She dies in the area.

[01:17:00]We don't hear about her in the movies cuz I guess she didn't play an important role. But it's just it's crazy that she has like three kids. Yeah.

[01:17:26]I do wonder why and so close just because they're drinking buddies or was there another rebel plan that brought them closer together.

[01:17:49]I called Ven Hamage and Peter volunteers. One of the announcers gets actually it's Terry because it seems the odds will never be enough. It's not cross level of district 12. Then she pulls herself together to say she bets that these will be the best games ever.

[01:18:04]Really? Really? Come on now. Hey leaves the compartment without a word and after making a few unconnected comments about this tribute or that I just sit there watching Peter rip out the pages of the victim.

[01:18:17]>> Rip out the pages. That's such a waste of paper here. Come on.

[01:18:24]Why don't you get some sleep? Because I can't handle the night. It's not without you. I'm going to highlight forever, guys. Come on.

[01:18:38]>> Emphasis on.

[01:18:40]>> I think they are sure to be dreadful tonight, but I can hardly ask Peter to come sleep with me. We barely touched since that night.

[01:18:48]What do you do?

[01:18:54]>> They get back to their comfortable relationship.

[01:18:59]Um, actually on the lounge next to Peter um when they're watching games.

[01:19:10]>> Just review. What are you going to do?

[01:19:13]just review my notes a lot. Get a clean picture of what we're at, but I'll go over it with you in the morning, but I can't discuss. He would have been such a good mentor.

[01:19:22]Such a good mentor.

[01:19:26]>> Not that we wanted the games to continue, but he would have been a really good mentor. I bet he was mentally preparing for that, too.

[01:19:51]So I go to bed and sure enough within a few hours I awake from a nightmare with that old woman before transforms into a large rodent and on my face. I know I was screaming but no one comes not Peter not even capital attendance. I've to try to calm the goose flesh crawling over my body. Staying in my apartment is impossible. So I decided to go find someone to make him tea or hot chocolate or anything. But h is still up. Surely he isn't asleep.

[01:20:20]Maybe Hish is still up. Surely he is sleep.

[01:20:26]This is highlighting this.

[01:20:34]I order warm milk. The most calming thing I can think of from a tender food or drink. I guess same thing. It counts in my mind. At least it's my book. I can highlight whatever I want.

[01:20:51]Hello duckling.

[01:20:55]T. What the? Thanks so much.

[01:21:09]I brought the duckling out during a panic um because I couldn't find a highlighter that actually worked. So, I'm using a pencil.

[01:21:26]What was I up to? Hearing voices from the television room. I go in and find Beside him on the sofa is the box Eie sent of tapes of the old hunger games. I recognize the episode in which Brutus became Victor. Scary. Peter rises and flips off the tape when he sees me.

[01:21:44]Couldn't sleep.

[01:21:46]Not for long, I say. I pull the robe more secure sec. Hang on. I lost my tripod. Not for long, I say. I pull the road more securely around me as I transform into the rodent.

[01:22:04]want to talk about it. He asks something. Sometimes sometimes that can help, but I just shake my head feeling weak that people I haven't yet or love there. I love the ever interactions.

[01:22:48]I like how he rises as well. Like immediately his attention is kind of so sweet.

[01:23:12]When Peter holds out his arms, I walk straight into them. It's the first time since now that he's offered me any sort of which I'm obviously going to highlight because we love Everark.

[01:23:55]He's been more like a very demanding trailer trainer. Always pushing, always insisting, "Hey, more know our enemy better. Forget about that." He abandoned any pretense of even being my friend.

[01:24:09]Oh my god. I wrap my arms tightly around his neck before he order me to do push-ups or something.

[01:24:15]Highlighted for emphasis.

[01:24:21]It takes everything in me to not highlight every single every single interaction between Peter and Cather.

[01:24:32]I said he pulls me in close and buries his face in my hair.

[01:24:36]Feels so cute. Warmth radiates from the spot where his lips just touch my neck, slowly spreading through the rest of me.

[01:24:43]It feels so good. So I'm possibly good.

[01:24:45]I know I will not be the first to let go of this. Is getting highlighted.

[01:24:52]So cute.

[01:25:13]I'll lose my mind.

[01:26:07]And why should I? I have said goodbye to Gail. I'll never see him again. That's not right. do he won't see it or he'll think I should her old life behind All right. The capital tendon with the warm milk is what breaks us apart. Set a tray with a ceramic with a steming jug and two milk on the table. A warm extra cup, he says. Thanks. I say and I added a touch of honey to the milk for sweetness and just a pinch of spiciness. He looks at us like he wants to say more. Gives his head a slight shake and backs out of the room. Um, once again, food. So, What's with him? I say I think he feels bad for us.

[01:28:04]>> I mean it. I don't think the people in the capital are going to be all that happy about our going back in, says Peter. Or the victors. They get attached to their champions.

[01:28:16]Seal this. Seal this.

[01:28:21]So many freaking pages.

[01:28:50]I'm guessing they'll get over it once the blood starts flowing. I say flatly.

[01:28:54]Really, if there's one thing I don't have time for is worrying about how the cortical will affect the mood in the capital. So, you're watching all the tapes again.

[01:29:06]kind of should worry about it though because that's how we need That's help.

[01:30:11]So, you're watching all the tapes again?

[01:30:13]Not really. Just sort of skipping around to see who's different fighting, who's different. See people's different fighting techniques, says Peter. Who's next? I say you pick, says Peter, holding out the box. The tapes are of the year of the games and the name of Vector. I dig around and suddenly find one in my hand that we have not watched.

[01:30:33]The year of the games is 50. That would make it the second pearl and the name of the vector is Hades.

[01:30:43]No, I knew the same way we did not relive our own games. Since we're all on the same team, I don't think it mattered much. Is the person who won in 25 I ask?

[01:30:56]I don't think so. Whoever it must be it was must be dead right now face. Peter weighs him in his hand. Why you need all to watch it?

[01:31:21]Once again, we don't know where the hell the 25th Victor is.

[01:31:57]Okay. So, this is the first time I am reading Hitch's tapes of this section of Catching Fire since reading Sunrise and the Reap.

[01:32:08]So, this is going to be interesting. I don't know what annotations I should make now that we have sunrise on the reaping.

[01:32:18]Peter waves hand. Why think we ought to watch it? It's the only quil we have. We might pick up something valuable about how they work, they say. But I feel weird. Seems like some major invasion of H's privacy.

[01:32:31]I don't know why it should since the whole thing was public, but it does. I have to admit I'm also extremely curious. We don't have to it.

[01:32:42]Okay, Peter agrees. He puts on in the tape and I go next on the sofa with my milk. So cute. which is really delicious with the honey spices and lose myself in the 50 games and the showing the envelope which is not something we see. He looks down but just as he reads from the square of paper in the same honorous tone voice of pan that in honor of the protocol there will twice the number of tribes the editor smash cut right into the rings where name after name is called how the games work I'm just highlighting By the time we get to district 12, I'm completely overwhelmed by the sheer number of kids.

[01:34:01]There's a woman, not Effie. It is Dusa.

[01:34:15]I've been calling the names and 12 and Maya is never mentioned in this either which is interesting.

[01:34:26]She begins with ladies first. She calls out the hair from the scene. You can tell by Collins. She knew she freaking knew who Luella was. And that the reason why the whole time she knew the whole time why Hamage was calling K sweetheart.

[01:35:19]They mention everyone else even though they don't Susan Collins mentions everyone but what Oh, I say she was my mother's friend.

[01:36:27]The camera finds her in the crowd clinging to two other girls or blonde all definitely marching kids.

[01:36:39]>> I think that's your mother hugging her says quietly. He's right. As amazingly bravely disengages myself and heads to the stage. I catch a glimpse of my mother at my age and no one has exaggerated her beauty holding her hand and being another girl who looks just like me a lot like someone else I know to say that's her mother she was or something that's my highlight this part because this is characterization. She's a very strong She's a very strong person.

[01:37:37]I think of M's mother's wife. She spent half my life in bed and mobilize a terrible pain showing up.

[01:37:45]How I never realized that she and her mother share this connection of showing up in that snowtorm to bring the pain of going and how it means something completely different now that I know it's former owner tribute.

[01:38:56]We mostly didn't actually kind of make sense that would have hated it because if it was buried with her then Kess wouldn't have been able to have that um I cannot wait to see portray me. I'm very excited to see that.

[01:39:31]I know she's going to be perfect.

[01:39:33]H's name is Carl called basketball. It's more of a shock to see him.

[01:39:40]They coincidentally left something out about that part of the raping. Um, young, strong, hard to admit, but he was something of a looker. His hair dark and curly, those gray eyes bright and even then dangerous. Oh, Peter, you don't think he killed Mly, do you? I burst out. I know why, but I can't say the 48 players. I'd say the odds are against Flamingo killed Masley after she killed some capital ins. So, um, yeah.

[01:40:29]Time for highlighting this.

[01:40:44]characterization.

[01:40:50]He has that look in his eye because he's the capital. is refusing to cry.

[01:40:58]I'm thinking those words kind of reliably. Um, which rides in which the district 12 kids are dressed in awful coal miners outfits and interviews flash by awfully fast on the chariot rides.

[01:41:15]Wonder why. I wonder why.

[01:41:26]She's been calling me the whole time.

[01:41:29]She knew. She knew she was going to write that goddamn book. I know it.

[01:42:14]There's a little time to focus on anyone, but since H is going to be the victor, we get to see what's changed and looks so different are different.

[01:42:30]So, hey, what do you think of the games having 100% more competitors than usual?

[01:42:39]>> I'm highlighting this for emphasis because everyone loves this line cuz he's channeling the energy of wood chance.

[01:42:54]I don't see that it makes much difference.

[01:42:59]I'll still be 100% as stupid as usual. So, I think my odds will be roughly the same.

[01:43:25]channeling.

[01:43:39]The audience bursts out laughing and Ham gives them a half smile. Snarky, arrogant, indifferent. Not at all what he's actually like.

[01:44:21]Now the morning now's the morning the games begin. We watch from the point of view of one of the tributes as she rises up through the tube from the launch room.

[01:44:31]I can't help but give a slight gas.

[01:44:33]Disbelief is reflected on the faces of the players even eyebrows.

[01:44:38]Although they immediately knit themselves back into the sky. It's the most breathtaking place imaginable. The golden cornucopus sits in the middle of a green meadow with patches of gorgeous clouds.

[01:44:49]The sky is a blue with puffy white clouds, bright sun. You know what?

[01:44:58]Sus like the color as your blue because Barbio is called Barbia the color.

[01:45:08]That's water overhead. By the way, some of the tributes are sniffing. It must smell fantastic. An aerial shot shows the shows that the metad is far in the distance in one direction. There seems to be woods in the other mountain.

[01:45:46]I just like the imagery. So, I'm highlighting it.

[01:45:53]I'm also going to make a little annotation as your blue.

[01:47:33]The beauty disrupants many of the players because the gone sounds most of them seem like they're trying to wake from a dream not h of the cornucopia armed with weapons and a back of choice supplies and heads for the woods before most others have stepped off their plates.

[01:47:50]tributes are killed in the blood bath that first day. Others begin to die off becomes clear that almost everything in this pretty place. The luscious fruit from the bushes, the water and the cryst inhal too directly is death poisonous.

[01:48:07]She watched Lulu die.

[01:48:14]>> Excuse me. Let's hold time like Susan does.

[01:48:24]Suzanne knew this entire time. Can't believe it. I know she I just know my gut is telling me that Susan Collins had this book planned. She just didn't have she didn't feel like it was the right time to write and publish it yet.

[01:48:42]She knew she was going to write it.

[01:49:18]Also the poison signature method of the rain water and the food provided at the cornucopia are safe to consume.

[01:49:31]There's also a large well to create a pack of 10 tribute scanning the mountain area for victims.

[01:49:52]Hitch has his own troules over in the woods where the fluffy golden squirrels turn out to be kinds and attacks and the butterfly things bring agony not death but he persists persists in moving forward keeping a distance mountain back this is death right here and this is straight step when he's trying to run away with not Lulu's body.

[01:50:35]>> The crazy thing is just watch all this not knowing any of his connection to any of his tribes because he was so highly edited. That's insane.

[01:50:52]Donna turns out to be pretty resourceful herself for a girl who leaves the cornucopia with only a small backpack.

[01:50:58]She decides to find the balls and drag and gun with two darts making use of the readily available poison. She soon turns blue gun into deadly weapons by darts in lethal substances substances and directly into her opponent's flesh.

[01:52:00]using killing methods to her advantage.

[01:52:02]In this way, she's outsmarting the capital Almost done.

[01:52:47]4 days in, the pictures mountain erupts in a volcano.

[01:52:51]a dozen players, including all but five of the career pack with the mountain spearing liquid fire and the men are offering no means of concealment.

[01:53:04]The remaining 13 tributes came have no choice but to confine themselves. So let's I'm just writing here. The volcano was likely caused by her trying to break the arena. Um she's bent on continuing in the same direction away from the now volcanic mountain but m tightly broken hedges forces him to circle back into the center of the woods where he encounters three of the careers and life. They may be much bigger and stronger but hent remarkable remarkable speed and his skill two when the third disarms him. That is that cer is about to sl drops him to the ground.

[01:54:54]Donna steps out of the woods. We live longer with two of us. Yes. You just prove that in. And there they are instantly drawn into one of those packs. You'd be hardressed to break if you ever expected to go home and face your district.

[01:55:11]Just like Peter and me, they do better together. Get rest assist water as a team.

[01:55:20]Oh my god, I didn't even realize we get this whole um system of them getting rain water and some share the food from the dead tribute packs. But h is still determined to keep moving on.

[01:55:35]This is about Why keeps asking and he ignores her until she refuses to move any further without an answer?

[01:55:50]>> Cuz it has to end somewhere, right? Says you're in that gone forever. What do you expect to find? Mayly ask. I don't know, but maybe there's something we can use.

[01:55:59]He says, just hiding this information to protect me easily.

[01:56:52]They finally do make it through the impossible hedge using a blow torch from one of the dead careers packs. They find themselves on satire that leads to below you can see jagged rocks. This is actually outside of the arena.

[01:57:21]Um, audience doesn't know that. That's all there is. Let's go back. No, I'm staying here. He says, "All right, there's only five of us left. May as well say goodbye now." Anyway, she says, "I don't want him to come down to you and me." Okay, he agrees. That's all. He doesn't offer shake her hand or even look at her and she walks away.

[01:57:42]At this point, Mar and they team back up again.

[01:58:36]Hamage steps along the edge of the cliff as if trying to figure something out.

[01:58:39]His foot just lodges a pebble and it falls into the entire fall. But a minute later, he sits as he sits to rest, the pebble shoots back up beside him. Harry stares at it. in his face takes on a strange intensity. The lobs are rocked the size of his fist over the cliff and he waits. Then it flies back out and right into his hands.

[01:59:02]That's when we hear Masley begin to scream.

[01:59:08]I think >> Do they team back up here?

[01:59:15]>> I think they might team up here.

[01:59:35]I'm trying to remember when died somewhere around here. They completely cut it out.

[01:59:52]I'm trying to think of something to write.

[02:00:27]That's why begins to scream. The alliance is over and she broke it off.

[02:00:31]So no one complain for ignoring her when that's not actually what happened. But H runs for her anyway.

[02:00:41]Um, she goes to actually get I say wood for a fire so they can cook some potatoes. Um, but she goes to gather something so they can cook a meal. Um, and they separate temporarily, but their lines are still on.

[02:01:38]He arrives only in time to watch her.

[02:01:47]He arrives only time to watch the last little fl pink birds put up a long skewer. He also hand washing and all I can think of is R and how I was too late to say that's I think they edited someone else And that one is great cuz I for a second I thought they edited and put to die but no it's that's down kind of just Later is killed in combat and a phone gets eaten by packed scrolls and we encry the crown. is bigger than he is and just as fast. When the inevitable finance, it's bloody and awful and both have received what they could well be what could well be fatal wounds. When H is finally disarmed, he staggers through the beautiful woods holding his intestines in.

[02:03:59]While she stumbles after him, carrying the ax that should deliver his death blow. Has a mini line for his cliff and has just reached the edge. When she throws the ax, he collapses on the ground that flies into the abyss. now weaponless says well the girl just stands there trying to staunch the floor from her empty eye socket she's thinking perhaps that she can outlast him and she started to fall on the ground but what she doesn't know what he does is that the axe will return when it flies back over the ledge it buries itself in her head cannon sounds her body is removed and explode on victory is actually very good at this Very close to being done with this chapter.

[02:06:14]here. Ham shouldn't do this for the force field rather to play the games die outside the arena and paint his final poster.

[02:06:21]Peter clicks off the tape and we sit there in silence for a while. Finally, Peter says that force field at the bottom of the cliff was like the one on the roof. that throws you back. If you try to jump off the comm side, how much fun way to turn it into a weapon?

[02:06:49]Not just against the other ties, but the capital too. I say Peter, they didn't expect that to happen. It was eventually.

[02:07:11]>> They never planned on anyone using it as a weapon. It made them look stupid that he figured it out. I bet they had a good time in that one. But that's why I don't remember seeing on television and it's almost as bad as us and the berries.

[02:07:26]I'm just gonna highlight all of that.

[02:07:30]She doesn't know the extent.

[02:07:33]I'm going to write on other page that because something to write at the end of that and Peter don't know the extent of what their rebellion actually was.

[02:08:01]I can't help laughing, really laughing for the first time in months. Peter shakes his hand like I've lost my mind and maybe I have a little almost but not quite as hamage from behind us.

[02:08:29]using how Shawn knew the extent of what she was talking about.

[02:09:05]I look around afraid he's going to be angry over us watching his tape, but he just smacks and takes a swig from cuz he knows the truth.

[02:09:22]So much for sobriety. I guess I should be upset he's drinking, but I'm preoccupied with another feeling.

[02:09:50]I spent all these weeks getting to know who my competitors are without even thinking about who my teammates are. Now a new kind of confidence is lining up inside me because I think I finally know who Hamage is. Well, not really. And I'm beginning to know who I am. And surely two people who have caused the capital so much trouble can think of a way to get home. She doesn't really know.

[02:10:11]Damage.

[02:10:45]She's closer.

[02:10:55]All right. She doesn't really know Hitch. Just the person he was forced to become, but she's close enough, you know.

[02:11:08]I'm going to just underline I think like how she says I think because she thinks but she is proven wrong.

[02:11:20]She doesn't actually know anything.

[02:11:24]Chapter 15. We're not going to do chapter 15 today, but we are going to do chapter 15 and 16 in or on Thursday at p.m. Australian Eastern Standard Time, so stay tuned for that. Um, but we got through a lot. 36 pages today. Pretty good. Pretty fun. We're approximately halfway through now, I think. Yeah, we're about halfway through. Maybe just over halfway, which is pretty good. I think we're doing quite well. We're well on the way to getting to the end of this novel and Mocking Jay. And then after Mocking Jay, we do the ballad of Song Birds of Snakes. And then after Song Birds and Snakes, we do Sunrise and the Reaping.

[02:12:03]Then we'll be and annotating the whole game series and it'll be great. So, thank you guys so much for joining today's stream. If you enjoyed, please like and subscribe and stay tuned for Thursday when I'm going to be streaming once again. Um, but yeah, see you guys in the next stream. Bye.
