“Well, don't expect us to be too impressed. We just saw Finnick Odair in his underwear.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“You're still trying to protect me. Real or not real," he whispers.
"Real," I answer. "Because that's what you and I do, protect each other.”

"Want a sugar cube?"


Anna | 144 comments "Oh my dear Miss Everdeen. I thought we had agreed not to lie to each other."


Nikki Sojkowski (nikkisoj) | 868 comments I Agree with Jack and Gina, the ones about finnick were my favorite :D along with "So that's who finnick loves, I think. Not his string of fancy lovers in the capitol. But a poor, mad girl back home"


Amber (peoplewererain) | 250 comments love the one where finnick first comes and talks to Katniss


Fatima Peeta blushes beet red and stammers out:"Because...because... she came here with me."

"... Only i keep wishing i could think of a way to...to show the Capitol that they don't owe me. That more than a piece in their games."

“Finnick?" I say, "Maybe some pants?"
He looks down at his legs as if noticing his outfit for the first time. Then he whips off his hospital gown leaving him in just his underwear. "Why? Do you find this" -- he strikes a ridiculously provocative pose -- "distracting?"

Love all those quotes! Peeta and Finnick, my favorite male characters in the Hunger Games trilogy X)


°☆.。.:*・Nanna°☆.。.:*・ (weresvsvamps) | 18 comments Hunger Games quote when Katniss and Peeta are together in the cave:

" 'We'll earn it all back today,' I say, and we both plow into our plates. Even cold, it's one of the things I've ever tasted. I abandon my fork and scrape up the last dabs of gravy with my fingers. 'I can feel Effie trinket shuddering at my manners.'
'Hey, Effie, watch this!' says Peeta. He tosses his fork over his shoulder and literally licks his plate his plate clean with his tongue making loud, satisfied sounds. Then he blows a kiss to her in general, and calls, 'We miss you, Effie!'
I cover his hand with my mouth. But I am laughing.
'Stop! Cato could be right outside our cave.'
He grabs my hand away.'What do I care. I've got you to protect me now,' says Peeta, pulling me to him.
'Come on,' I say in exasperation, extricating myself from his grasp but not before he gets another kiss.”

Kay (read-always) So after, when he whispers, "You love me. Real or not real?"
I tell him, "Real."


Lucila (lucy1611) | 1 comments "That is MAHOGANY!!" :-)

And pretty much everything else in the books (especially involving Finnick and Peeta!!)


Brittney | 17 comments "I want to tell the rebels that I am alive. That I am right here in District Eight, where the Capitol has just bombed a hospital full of unarmed men, women, and children. There will be no survivors." The shock I've been feeling begins to give way to fury. "I want to tell people that if you think for one second the Capitol will treat us fairly if there's a cease-fire, you're deluding yourself. Because you know who they are and what they do." My hands go out automatically, as if to indicate the whole horror around me. "This is what they do! And we must fight back!"
I'm moving in toward the camera now, carried forward by my rage. "President Snow says he's sending us a message? Well, I have one for him. You can torture us and bomb us and burn our districts to the ground, but do you see that?" One of the cameras follows as I point to the planes burning on the roof of the warehouse across from us. The Capitol seal on a wing glows clearly through the flames. "Fire is catching!" I am shouting now, determined that he will not miss a word. "And if we burn, you burn with us!"

Kiya | 22 comments "I'm not just a piece in their games" ~Peeta Mellark...or was it Katniss who said that?


message 19: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Stringer | 358 comments It was Peeta who said that when he was talking to Katniss the night before the games. He said he wanted to find a way to show the Capitol that he was more than just a piece in their games.


message 20: by Isabella (new)

Isabella | 30 comments "I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now and live in it forever."

"So it's you and a syringe against the Capital? See, this is why no one lets you make the plans."

"Fire is burning! And if we burn, you burn with us!"

"Heres some advise, stay alive."

"Because when he sings...even the birds stop to listen."
