He's a GOOD PERSON I KNOW I'M SURE

SBG Hunger Games AU

Ashlyn, forced to survive and take on a leadership role she never wanted in the rebellion. Her parents teaching her to survive as best as they could in hopes that she could protect herself if she ever got hurt and refusing to let her put her name more than once for the reaping no matter how hard things got, only to watch her name get picked out of hundreds of others and not being able to do anything as their only daughter was thrown into a death tournament for the amusement of the rich and powerful. Ashlyn doing her best to survive the games and resenting Aiden for stepping all over her boundaries and poking his nose into her business but slowly learning to love him as time goes on. Her being forced into the arena of her nightmares a year after she and Aiden got out, knowing only one of them would walk out alive this time and she wanted it to be him. Her losing him despite doing her best to try and keep him alive.

Aiden, so hopelessly devoted to a single girl it destroys him. Aiden, the son of the mayor and his wife, whose cousin was reaped just two years before him, losing his voice and passion for singing in the process. Him watching the girl he liked (and was kinda obsessed with) get chosen for the games shortly before his name was pulled and finding it vaguely ironic because he'd always wondered what it was like to die but he'd never really expected that he would die this way. He was always testing the boundaries with the peacekeepers, seeking out dangerous things that he knew would get him in trouble. Aiden, who already knew what the outcome of the games would be because he would make sure of it himself-- make sure Ashlyn would come home even if he didn't. Him watching as she offers him the berries-- both of them go home or neither of them go home-- and falling in love with her all over again. Him volunteering for his cousin and swearing to make sure Ashlyn will be the only one to walk out all over again because he knows they won't get lucky again this time.

Ben, big and charming with a love for singing that helped him get sponsors when he was reaped, having his throat heavily damaged during the games by one of the careers. He beat them to death in his anger and his throat was fixed by the capitol but it was forever changed and artificial and Ben hated the sound of it so he never spoke or sang again, getting angrier and more defiant of the capitol until his family's home was burned down and he realized the capitol would kill them at any time if they wanted to. So he kept quiet and remained on his best behaviour, letting his hatred and anger fester inside him as other kids were reaped and then his cousin, his reckless stupid cousin was reaped and Ben knew he would die in that arena while he could do nothing but stand there with clenched fists and poisonous rage. But Aiden survived against all odds and there were whispers of rebellion and Ben began to hope-- until the victors are reaped and Aiden volunteers for him despite all his protests and he is forced to watch from the sidelines all over again, hoping that Jasmine and District 13 can extract them all from the arena in time.

Tyler, hardened and angry from loss, clinging onto the family he has left and volunteering as tribute when Taylor gets chosen so she never has to fear for her life only for her to get chosen again the next year as a punishment for his own defiant nature. Taylor, who manages to survive her games, watching her brother continue to suffer to protect her from the darker sides of being a tribute. Marianna, a victor who had a mental breakdown after the capitol killed her husband, watching her children go through the same trauma she went through and not being able to do anything about it. Tyler and Taylor being pulled back into that nightmare arena and Marianna volunteering for Taylor and dying in the arena to protect Tyler in the only way she could. Taylor, helplessly watching from the sidelines as her mother dies and falling apart at the seams when she realizes they didn't manage to get Tyler before the Capitol got to him.

Logan, intelligent and kind despite all that he went through, managing to get through his games by being underestimated and hiding with the career pack. His parents watching as he used their knowledge of botany (and drugs) to survive in a forest landscape where tributes from District 3 would generally struggle to survive and coming home despite all odds. Him being dragged into the games all over again barely a few years later.

Ashlyn, Aiden, Tyler, Marianna, and Logan being allies in the games. Ben, Taylor and the others working with District 13 to get the victors removed. Aiden and Tyler being the ones lost to the Capitol. Ashlyn, forced to be a symbol. Taylor becoming more angry and vicious because she has lost her whole family at this point. Aiden and Tyler coming back not quite right, not fully human. Alex Laurier taking on a bit of a mentor role for Ashlyn like Boggs did for Katniss, warning her not to trust Maverick.

Ashlyn and Aiden helping each other heal, the gang and their parents coming together in the end and helping each other heal because they were still kids by the end of it all, even if they were never truly allowed to be.

IT FITS THEM SO WELL, I'M GONNA GO CRY IN A CORNER WHY DID I THINK OF THIS? 😭

like 60% of the sbg tag right now is either people screaming about how much they hate Alex or how much they love him never change this

I DO NOT FASTPASS DO NOT SPOIL IT PLS...

You guys should totally give me art ideas for Ben, Alex, Ryan, Mike (ashs dad) or taylor.. just saying.. if you wanted to you could

Y'all

I just noticed this--

When we first see Ryan (unofficially), we see a crow along with him.

Crows tend to mean a few things, but this is the main thing that I'm looking at

Isn't it a bit funny? How (FAST PASS SPOILERS TO EPISODE 76!!!)

his first appearance on screen is specifically with a crow... and when we officially meet him, he's this hotheaded guy who just says anything anytime. However, the minute of said thing does end up being followed up, he becomes unsure, questioning if this is morally right.

Now, with the most recent fast pass episode (76), it truly comes together. He's giving advice to Alex about warning the kids, and even going as far as giving Alex his phone number on a phone so he could explain more, meaning he could help Alex more.

This right here, is a change. Ryan has an untold transformation from evil to good. He was meant to always be a good person, he just needed a change of heart.

I guess you could say it was destined for him to always betray Maverick and the cranes for the better good.

It's really hard to put in words, but I strongly believe that crow meant a change in morals. It seems like it was the case in terms of the newest episode.

What are y'alls thoughts?

Hello!!! First of all, good morning, I hope you are fine.

My random question: what do you think about Ryan, Jasmine, Alex, Thomas and Maverick? (I still can't get over his name, it's very random)

Good morning to you too :>

Ryan: kinda goofy ngl. Reminds me of a flop Ronan Lynch with all the crow imagery. Homosexual.

Jasmine: (twirling my hair kicking my feet giggling) Her <3. Looks cute is definitely a sadist. Would have definitely fallen for her trap I'm weak for girls with short black hair.

Alex: They are enby IN MY HEART. Morally grey my beloved. Prolly not a bad guy but he's in way over his head and got involved in some messed up shi. Pretty hair.

Thomas: hate him/pos. I think about that frame where he's injecting Ashlyn on the regular. Prolly a sicko... (which is interesting to see)

Maverick: (Censored for your viewing pleasure)

Idk who Alex is.. but fuck em and I hope they have a terrible tummy ache rn and stub their toe

THANK YOU. CALLOUT POST ALEX LAURIER RIGHT NOW. THEY ARE CHILDREN ALEX . LISTEN HERE (grabbing him by his pathetic neck) DUDE THEYRE KIDS I KNOW YOU’D BE KILLED FOR INTERFERING BUT PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. TRY SOMETHING I DONT KNOW

Okay, so:

Another one :

!!SBG FASTPASS SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 74!!

Holy shit, Aiden and Ben were so unhinged in this chapter.

The whole flashback scene of Aiden threatening Alex was genuinely so offputting and not in the usual way either.

Especially the third shot, the way he's positioned and his expression is making alarm bells go off in my head. Something about it just makes him feel more phantom-like than ever before.

I loved the part where he called Taylor and Ashlyn, 'Tay and Ash'. I love his nicknames so much.

The scenes with Ben were kinda funny but only added to the fact that these two cousins are equally unhinged just in different ways.

Ben was so ready to destroy him then and there and Maverick knew it. I love Ben and Aiden so much.

Also, I DON'T TRUST THIS MF AT ALL. Like, I believe he doesn't like the facility and the government agents within it but I think he purposefully approached Ben first for a reason. By appealing to Ben's own experiences he's making himself seem more trustworthy. I have no doubt in my mind that he has his own goal in mind, like @b3achysurfur said in their analysis of the Crane cult/group/whatever

Also Ramadan Kareem, b3achysurfur! How were the first two days?

Guys do we think Alex is cute or no

Little character comparison chart I did

Ignore the initials on the pictures, I was comparing the characters to the MLP main 6.

Anyways, I made this a while back because I realized something...

Doesn't the Savannah gang an the Crane Group seem familiar?

Character similarities: Maverick w/ Ashlyn- They are both the leaders, are 'mysterious' (Ash to friends. Maverick to us), both are standouts, independent, and have something 'strange' about them. (They are both also stylish but that isn't really important).

Thomas w/ Aiden- They both smile a good amount of the time, both are psychotic (You can't look me in the eyes and tell me Mr. Thomas isn't a lil silly after THAT smile in episode 64), keep a positive attitude (Ig), and not canon, but I feel like Thomas also enjoys thrills.

Jasmine w/ Taylor- I literally do not know how to describe this. They both are communicative ig, and loyal (?). Look, this one lays more on hc than what we see. What I'm trying to say is that Jasmine is practically the meaner version of Taylor.

Alex w/ Logan- C'mon, in EP 69 they were both playing chess. Alex is definitely a nerd in some ways. They're both smart, like playing logical games (chess for ex), definitely can observe a situation and figure out solutions to it. We don't know much about Alex yet, so that's all I can really pick at.

Ryan w/ Tyler- First appearances y'all. They're both hotheads, get angered easily, always pick at straws in the situation, get humbled real quick (haha ep 38 and when Ashlyn lashed out at Tyler), don't bother to think things through, will have respect for someone when necessary.

Blondie w/ Ben- I'm really digging at these straws for this one. This one really depends on the fact that they both have similar posture, facial structure (to a sense), and they walk similar. I've said this stuff in another post I've made before, so there is really nothing to defend my statement on this one.

I would have done a much longer version of this, but honestly, I have no brainpower currently, and I've already been keeping this draft for a bit now, so, yeah.

Hope my rambles make some sense.

HARTFORD WOLF PACK OPEN TRAINING CAMP

By: Gerry Cantlon, HowlingsHARTFORD, CT - The Hartford Wolf Pack released their training camp roster on Sunday, which includes ten hopefuls on Professional Try-Out contracts (PTO).The players on PTOs are goaltender Brad Arvanitis, defensemen Matthew Cairns, Ryan McCleary, Steven MacLean, Billy Constantinou. and Chris Cameron. Also on PTOs are forwards Luka Burzan, Peter Laviolette Jr., James Hardie, and Michal Mrazik. All of them are looking to make the Pack's opening night roster.With more cuts coming by the New York Rangers, the Wolf Pack will start camp with 17 forwards, ten defensemen, and three goaltenders on their training camp roster.Forwards (17): Matej Pekar (Cincinnati-ECHL/Rochester), Turner Elson, Riley Nash (Charlotte-AHL), Anton Blidh (Colorado-AHL/NHL/Hartford), Luka Burzan* (Ft. Wayne-Cincinnati-ECHL/ Cleveland-AHL), Karl Henriksson, Sahil Panwar (Peterborough/Hamilton-OHL), Adam Sýkora (HK Nitra-Slovakia/Harford), Peter Laviolette Jr.* (Wheeling-ECHL like his Rangers' Head Coach, he played Division III college hockey), Ryder Korczak (Moose Jaw-WHL/Hartford-5), Bobby Trivigno, Maxim Barbashev (Moncton-QMJHL), James Hardie* (Mississauga-OHL/Cincinnati-ECHL), Alex Belzile (Laval/Montreal), Drew Worrad (Toledo-ECHL/Grand Rapids), Cristiano DiGiacinto (Hartford/Jacksonville-ECHL), and Michal Mrazik* (Atlanta-ECHL/Tucson).Defensemen (10): Matthew Cairns* (Cincinnati-ECHL/Milwaukee), Connor Mackey (Calgary-NHL/Arizona/Team USA-WC, his father is former NHL'er Dave Mackey), Zach Berzolla (Cincinnati-ECHL/Rochester), Blake Hillman, Seth Barton (Toledo-ECHL/Grand Rapids), Nikolas Brouillard (San Diego), Steven MacLean* (Wilfred Laurier-OUAA/Cincinnati-ECHL), Ryan McCleary* (Portland-WHL, rights traded to Swift Current, and the son of New Haven Senator Trent McCleary), Billy Constantinou* (Wichita/Norfolk/Wichita-ECHL/San Jose-AHL), and Chris Cameron* (Indy-ECHL/Milwaukee).Goaltenders (3): Brad Arvanitis*(Rapid City/Tulsa/Wichita-ECHL/Pensacola-SPHL), Talyn Boyko (Kelowna-WHL), and Olof Lindbom (Jacksonville-ECHL/Hartford).Later, the Rangers assigned seven more players to Hartford. All of them played in Hartford last year.The players are goaltender Dylan Garand, defensemen Matthew Robertson and Brandon Scanlin, and forwards Adam Edström Rögle BK (Sweden-SHL/Hartford), Matt Rempe, Brett Berard (Providence College-HE/Hartford), and Jake Leschyshyn (Las Vegas-New York/Hartford). RANGERS PRESEASON The New York Islanders scored three times in the first period on Saturday night against Hamden-born Jonathan Quick.The Rangers started slowly, but the Islanders didn't. The Islanders got a secondary assist on the first goal from ex-Pack/Ranger Julien Gauthier, battling for a position in Belmont.Jonny Brodzinski, who's getting an extended look by the Rangers, had three shots in the first two periods, including the best-quality shot in the second frame for the Rangers.The Rangers started the third period well. Ex-Pack Ryan Lindgren had a quality bid from the right-wing side. Brennan Othmann then scored the first Rangers' goal at the right side of the net, knocking it down with his right skate and whacking the bouncing biscuit into the cage.The Rangers have been pleased with what they've seen from Othmann to this point but need to decide whether to keep him in a limited role or send him to develop in Hartford, where he'll get first-line minutes and power play time.Another last season Pack, Will Cullye, continued to impress, sparking a late comeback that fell short. The hulking 6'4 forward was net front and swatted the puck out of mid-air and into the net to make it 4-3.The Islanders sealed the deal with an empty-netter for the 5-3 final. EMBERSON CLAIMED OFF WAIVERS The Wolf Pack lost last season's right-handed defenseman Ty Emberson to the San Jose Sharks on a waiver claim on Saturday.The Rangers were forced to put Emberson on waivers as a veteran to get him to Hartford, and the Sharks took him. Emberson was a collegiate teammate and defensive partner of K'Andre Miller and is heading back out West, where he started his career (Tucson), heading to the AHL San Jose Barracuda.The club assigned six others to the Wolf Pack. They included defenseman Connor Mackey, who was signed in the off-season. There are options for forward Adam Sýkora, who played two games at the end of last year. He is 19 years old and could be sent back to junior with the Medicine Hat Tigers (WHL), where he was the #1 overall pick in last year's CHL Import Draft, or he could return to his native Slovakia like he did last year, or he could be in Hartford.Also heading to Hartford is Turner Elson, a jack-of-all-trades last season for the Wolf Pack, who will likely have an "A" on his sweater this year. Joining him will be Alex Belzile, a captain in Laval with the Rocket, who spent some time in Montreal with the Canadiens last year because of the severe spate of injuries.Anton Blidh came over to Hartford having a sub-par early part of the season with the Colorado Eagles and then briefly with the Avalanche. However, he became a significant asset helping the Wolf Pack when acquired at the trade deadline. He helped the Pack make the playoffs, ending an eight-year drought, not counting the pandemic year and was rewarded with a two-year deal in the off-season.The Rangers also sent Riley Nash, a point-per-game player with the Charlotte Checkers and a thorn in the side of the Wolf Pack, before joining the team last season.The Rangers have 24 players remaining in camp, meaning depending upon salary-cap numbers, one or two could stay in the Big Apple. PLAYER MOVEMENT Forward Ty Smilanic (Quinnipiac University), who grad-transferred to Wisconsin-Madison (Big 10) last year, was sent to Laval by Montreal after acquiring his rights from the Florida Panthers at last year's Trade Deadline.Vegas sent ex-Pack Mason Geersten to the Henderson Silver Knights.Ex-Pack's Justin Richards and Dustin Tokarski are sent to the Rochester Americans pending clearing waivers.Ex-Pack Tommy Hughes starts his second season as an NHL linesman wearing #65.West Hartford's Jordan Samuels-Thomas (Quinnipiac University) wears #42 and starts his second year as an NHL/AHL referee.The referee with the second most Stanley Cup games officiated games in NHL history at 42 is still the late, great Rangers 1970s TV color commentator, Bill "The Big Whistle" Chadwick.You can still hear Chadwick's foghorn voice and memorable observations.Chadwick was surpassed by two games by Bill McCreary Sr. His cousin is the President/Head coach/GM Billy McCreary of the Danbury Hat Tricks (FPHL).His other hockey claim to fame was a hard, clean, legal hit he made on Wayne Gretzky, then in his second season with Edmonton (NHL) and who had four pro seasons under his belt at the point, two WHA and two NHL.McCreary lived and walked out of the Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton alive but never played another game or NHL shift for Toronto or anyone else.HARTFORD WOLF PACK HOME Read the full article
