PROMPTS FROM THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE *  assorted dialogue from the 2013 film, adjust as necessary

if you die, and i live, i'd have nothing. nobody else that i care about.

it's different for you. your family needs you.

you have to live. for them.

nobody needs me.

i do. i need you.

how does that sound?

what if we set your backyard on fire?

he can't hurt me. there's no one left that i love.

remember who the real enemy is.

we got married... in secret.

we want our love to be eternal.

we've been luckier than most.

i just wanted to say that i didn't know [name]. i only spoke to him once.

he could have killed me, but instead he showed me mercy.

that's a debt i'll never be able to repay.

she wasn't just my ally. she was my friend.

i couldn't save her. i'm sorry.

you guys look amazing.

so what do you think, now that the whole world wants to sleep with you?

i wasn't talking to you.

will you unzip?

thanks. let's do it again sometime.

the way the whole "friend" thing works is you have to tell each other the deep stuff.

what's your favorite color?

now you've stepped over the line.

see, this is why no one lets you make the plans.

you have been our mission from the beginning.

the plan was always to get you out.

people are looking to you, [name].

you've given them an opportunity. they just have to be brave enough to take it.

we have seen a lot of tears here tonight.

you are angry. tell me why.

i'm getting totally screwed over here.

now you wanna kill me again.

nobody decent ever wins the games.

nobody ever wins the games. period. there are survivors. there's no winners.

love is weird.

i would love to borrow that outfit someday.

you look pretty terrifying in that get-up.

i outgrew them.

any secrets worth my time?

unfortunately, i think that's true.

i'm sorry you had to cancel your wedding.

i'm really not in the mood for a lecture.

you don't have to apologize to anybody, including me.

i hardly know anything about you except that you're stubborn and good with a bow.

there's more than that. you just don't want to tell me.

make him pay for it.

any last advice?

stay alive.

she's committed, i'll give her that.

you saved my life. you gave me a chance.

fear does not work as long as there is hope.

you were dead. your heart stopped.

how rude of them.

eyes bright, chins up, smiles on.

we're a team, aren't we?

i am truly sorry.

you both deserved so much better.

i don't want to be with anyone else in there. just you.

that's what i want.

no waving and smiling this time.

i want you to look straight ahead as if the audience and this whole event are beneath you.

that should be easy.

be careful. it's a force field up there.

i think these games are gonna be different.

i guess we're not holding hands anymore.

i don't care about any of them.

i'm here to drink.

you know and i know there's only one person walking out of here, and it's gonna be one of us.

i get to say goodbye.

they will kill us.

whatever game you think you're playing, those out there are not playing it with you.

i don't want you to get hurt.

so how do you like the party?

you could live a hundred lifetimes and never deserve that boy.

you don't want to shoot her.

how about i shoot both of you?

get them out of here.

Elethea only knows how maps work in an Academic sense. She's very good at geography, of course, it's one of the things that was hammered into her, but actually navigating a map in practice during the Blight is something of a pitfall for her. A lot of aspects of applying her academic knowledge into real-life skills are challenging for her.

thea IS ableist towards herself and WOULD "undo" her amputation and be "normal" again if she could. miss girl is obsessed with being perfect, and being an amputee is not part of that equation to her.

OH, THE QUEEN OF PEACE ALWAYS DOES HER BEST TO PLEASE — is it any use? somebody's gotta lose. like a long scream; out there, always echoing. oh, what is it worth? all that's left is hurt.

the bog wife.

dialogue prompts from the bog wife by kay chronister.

don't tell me you didn't see it.

things are coming to their natural conclusion.

can't i please make you something to eat? you'd feel better.

____ loved you most.

you won't get the heart of me. that's somewhere you can't reach.

you having a panic attack?

i don't even know what home will look like.

i've never known you to say anything you didn't mean.

how is it sacred, if you're not afraid of it?

you can sleep with me, if you want. like we used to.

i know i used to annoy you. i won't now. i promise.

just do whatever you'd do if i weren't here.

saying something enough times won't make it true.

did you ever fall in love, when you were out there?

make coffee. make a lot of it.

i don't always do what i'm told.

there's no way to start but to start.

it's not healthy, what we're doing.

one down, the rest of our lives to go.

only the rich can afford to be sick nowadays.

would you read to me?

no one has to know.

i'm glad you're still alive.

i'm okay. i'm not going anywhere.

you from around here?

you feel so far away now.

i want you to tell me things. i want to know everything about you.

what? why aren't you saying anything?

where else would i go?

i don't want strangers to come here.

night is always the most precarious time.

you know how babies are made, right?

just say it. what do you think happened?

i keep thinking of things i want to tell you about.

are you really going to lecture me?

aren't we still a family?

you can come with me. i'll take care of you.

do you not get that we are separate people?

i thought i was doing what i had to.

i need you to see something.

you will not survive not changing.

soon i will be unrecognizable to you.

i will still be here, but not like before.

have you ever heard anything i've said?

why aren't you angry?

i know you think i'm a tyrant.

i've been hanging on for so long, i'm afraid of what would happen if i ever let go now.

none of us know how to take care of ourselves.

you ended up stronger than the rest of us.

sometimes it doesn't seem like you can hear me.

i've never not been alone.

i don't want to be lonely anymore.

where were you, before?

you've been changing for a while, now.

i need to be someone else.
