Thought it might be fun. I've been stuck in the fandom for a few years, and I don't see myself getting out.

I do like characters who do not exhibit any hint of sexuality in any way because they’re too busy being tormented by the narrative. like “yea I might be gay or whatever but the labyrinth is growing so I can’t worry about that shit rn”

A Snowbaird Crack What-If lmao
Based on the previous post: A crack rewrite fic using the worst takes of Lucy Gray and Coryo, so Lucy Gray is 100% manipulative sly bitch and Coryo is a psychopath who absolutely doesn't care about her
Lucy Gray is not thrown into the Games because she has been set up by Mayfair. But because District 12 people simply DESPISE her ass. So she sings, "YOU CAN KISS MY AAAAASS!!!" and the Districts will be like "BOOOOOO, GO DIE, BITCH!" and throwing tomatoes.
Lucy Gray bows, grabs a tomato, and says, "Thank you for the lunch for the arena!" The Capitols see all that but Lucy Gray can still turn the table on the Capitols by turning it into a sob story to grab their sympathies.
Lucy Gray and Coryo just simply straightforwardly scheme through shit. And like @coryo says in the comment, they will be a great team, ironically. Fortunately she still sings SO GREAT. The Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird is just a 100% LIE tho. It's a sob story to manipulate the Capitol people.
Coryo kinda despises Lucy Gray, he thinks he's an absolute bitch he can't stand, but still kinda be attracted to her (because this Lucy Gray is a whirlwind he never saw in the Capitol), while maybe Lucy Gray will just flirt more 18+ version with the boy. Lucy Gray saves Coryo in the bombing just because she needs a scheming partner. By the power of the plot, she survives the rainbow snakes.
And then after that, Lucy Gray stays in the Capitol because D12 hates her anyway. She suits the Capitol life more and maybe she and Coryo will be a couple but no feelings just lust, but just AN ABSOLUTE MENACE DUO COUPLE who just schemes through for PEAK POWER. It's obvious for Coryo like @sadsongsandstories says Coryo will use his political power and Lucy Gray using her singer-songwriter/celebrity status to manipulate the Capitol, because parasocial celebrity/idol worship/cult is strong, guys, I'm sure you know.
(While sadsongsandstories says that these characterisation bad takes are valid reading because of the elements of selfishness and manipulation of them, imo, it's like chemistry, you know? Suzanne Collins put this certain percentage of Liquid X (selfishness + manipulation) and Y (love) and you get TBOSAS result. This crack is 100% Liquid X lol!)
But like @things-stronger-than-fear says they will bring Panem to the ground so soon and too soon, because I think in the end their power is TOO fragile.
Still, in the hand of a Snowbaird shipper (me), they still become a couple anyway LMAO Or maybe because they belong together no matter how fucked up they are sksksksk

If you dare come at me about banning straws, I will throw you into the sun cannon. I’m disabled, I’m crippled, I need disposable plastic straws, and all those pricey ridiculous alternatives aren’t working as well. Plastic straws were invented for the disabled.
Way to shit all over a vital access need because you think straws are worse than corporate greed.
We all care about the turtles, the seals, the oceans, obviously. Notice how the easiest thing to yell about was something that would barely affect anything but appealed heavily to emotional discourse.
The disabled community is huge, and it can be joined by anyone. Most of those As Seen On TV products were invented for us. Society still mocks us and ignores us, and often outright harms us in multiple ways.
Communicate better. Listen better. But stop putting us out in the cold because you are inconvenienced by our simplest needs.

i just found out tumblr was storing over three GIGABYTES of cookies on my device without me knowing and that's why it's been running so fucking slow recently... incredible. anyways everyone go clear your fucking cookies. don't let this website run a goddamn video game's worth of disc space in the background for no good reason.

The haunting ancient Celtic carnyx being played for an audience. This is the sound Roman soldiers would have heard their Celtic enemies make.
