*clears throat* uhm, yeah, but guys let's not forget who the real enemies are - snow and coin. gale is not the best but hes not the worst you know
lmao this looks like a mental breakdown. the other deep dives are so good and this looks like my last braincell was fighting for its life i cant
But he is not that bad...
Let's first talk about why I don't like him.
His pick me self.
If you're chronically online like me, you probably know "Kim, there's people that are dying". Well, I would like to tell Gale, "Gale, there's people that are dying".
Katniss was dealing with post hunger games trauma, was thrown into a war, and was made the face of a revolution, all while Gale is over here acting like that annoying boy at school who won't leave me alone because I accidentally grabbed his hand while I had a panic attack which means that I led him on and that we should be together. I got sidetracked, ugh.
Anyway.
When will these annoying teenage boys learn that if a girl is nice to them it does not mean she is romantically interested in them?
Gale, let me tell you something, just between us, LEAVE KATNISS HEAL FROM HER TRAUMA YOU IDIOT!!!!
Katniss is still having nightmares about the hunger games and he's over here acting like a total pick me.
"You only pay attention to me when I'm hurting 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺"
BOY!
Or
[in the middle of a war]
[peeta was tortured]
Gale: "So, Katniss, I know we're in the middle of a war, but like........... do you like me or Peeta?"

READ THE ROOM, GALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or
[Prim dies]
Gale: Doesnt even apologise or try to comfort Katniss
ALSO THE BOMBS
Now, dont get me wrong, I also dislike Beetee for the bombs.
They literally created these bombs so that they kill as many people as they can.
bomb 1 goes off, people rush to help the wounded, bomb 2 goes off.
its sick.
However, lets understand WHY
Gale is if Katniss hadnt only wanted to survive.
Both Katniss and Gale lost their fathers in a mining accident.
Both were forced into the role of providers for their families.
Gale had even more mouths to feed and took 42 tessarae!!!! Thats insane.
Gale was mad at the Capitol when Katniss was just trying to survive, too tired to care about things that seemed unchangeable.
And Gale was the textbook definition of a rebel.
Gale was mad at the Capitol. They took his father. They let people in the districts die while they live luxurious lives.
So the bombs are made to kill as much as they can.
To avenge those in the districts that died.
While I think that's sick, we understand where he's coming from. The capitol burned district 12 to the ground.
Gale also proves Snow and Gaul right. He thinks that killing a human is the same as killing a squirrel.
And this is very bad but I wrote it on my phone because I was bored lol. I might redo it.
Next one will be about Beetee (it will have sotr spoilers)
