@springssonata sorta. i just don’t believe he’s sleeping with anybody named marcus. the rest can be about him, idc (the song is about *** to me, but i admit that’s delusion)
two brothers (out of 7 boys, mind you) fighting over a girl their parents just adopted bc her entire family got killed in a car crash is such a wild ass plot LMAOOOO
all this for wuthering heights?? a book that doesn’t mention the main character’s pregnancy (until she dies from childbirth) bc of victorian rules of propriety? that wuthering heights?
@tunuvamelim it’s like “tall, dark, and handsome.” it had a certain meaning when white was the literary status quo (which is more recent than we care to admit!). but also, it’s not like wuthering heights where the racial coding is so obvious. the seam is ‘othered’ but still white
@tunuvamelim admittedly i didn’t read the new book and have also been slightly peeved at the insistence that katniss is canonically non-white for a long time lol. there’s simply not enough evidence and like you said, gives sc way too much credit
@tunuvamelim my b, i didn’t mean to come off as necessarily think they should! the main cast will all stay the same races. i was trying to say that a lil fan service in regard to the secondary/background characters couldn’t hurt by making it a bit more diverse
