The titan’s curse dance scenes!!!

Collab with @lilsillustration !! Pls go follow her she’s amazing :)))

Bonus:

And then you meet Lucy Gray, and she’s just put a snake down someone’s dress. And immediately you have to reassess. And you figure out that it’s a little more complicated — they’re both the songbird, and they’re both the snake, but whereas Lucy Gray is associated with wild animals she befriends in the woods, Coriolanus is associated with Capitol mutts he first meets in a lab. Gaul’s rainbow snakes, the jabberjays.

And then the plot thickens even deeper, right, because it turns out the snakes represent their methods. They’re both cunning, good at improvising, not apposed to lying and performing when need be. They get each other! They click with each other, really well and really easily, because of that synergy in how they work with each other! SC isn’t saying that being ‘snakelike’ is bad or evil in and of itself. She’s cautioning you to think about what you’re using those methods for.

While she does have a lot of misconceptions (especially of D2, imo), she never has full-on hatred for those who are victims, too. With Cato, she was full of fear and sometimes payback, but she was never hateful towards him. He was tortured, too. Finnick, at first, she was just uncomfortable and assumed he was full of himself, but she never hated him. These are characters that she was so sure would kill her, but she still never had any true hate towards.
