Yeah exactly. When that moment with Peeta dying happened, there was no denying her concern was genuine.

yeah when he hit the force field, whoever was in doubt, started believing

yeah, you could definitely see them as a couple, after the near-death experience with the force field, and see they were in each other's corner, after that. i loved their little exchange with the pearl, on the beach.

the pearl

That becomes a reminder of him when he's in the Capitol.

Tati_SwanJones

yeah

when Katniss leaves with Joanna, you can see the pain and longing in his eyes, he definitely didn't want her to go. i'm always a bit sad now, when i see that, because i know what is coming for him in the Capitol. *chills*

they didnt want to be apart

Jen's Herald

it took me a while to understand why Katniss wanted nothing to do with Plutarch, or read his letter, or anything from him, it was because she blamed him for picking her over Peeta in the arena, saving her meant abandoning him to the evil of the Capitol. i have no idea why i didn't catch on to that for a while, i always wondered why she had such animosity towards him, even though he was clearly the leader of the Capitol underground and a good guy of sorts.

there was no guarantee that Peeta could have had any effect on the revolution, the propaganda campaign, or even as a soldier on the ground, it was always her rebellious act of defiance in the 74th Hunger Games, that ignited the revolution, no offense to the loving and loyal Peeta Mellark. Plutarch had to make the hard decision, even against Coin's wish to save Peeta. i often wonder if the screenwriters had included the scene with Plutarch's disappearing Mockinjay symbol in the pocketwatch, would Katniss have been so angry with him as much?

yeah she blamed everyone Plutarch and Haymitch

dancing in the rain

Yeah, she wasn't a fan of the way he went about it, all in secrecy, not letting her or them know what they were planning. Which was part of his plan since they always said that she was at her best when not rehearsed. Maybe it would have helped a bit if he'd shown her the pocketwatch, at least she'd understand a bit, but everything else would still stand, keeping her in the dark and favouring her rescue over Peeta's, so in the grand scheme of things, it probably won't have changed anything.

found this while looking for CF/Peeta gifs. it's really only funny if you have seen Jen's movie The Beaver, with Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, and Anton Yelchin.

dancing in the rain

I haven't seen it but it is still funny since it's a variation on "talk to the hand"

Tati_SwanJones

hahaha thats funny
