So, Mags continues to be awesome. She is the perfect person to start introducing Haymitch to life as a victor. Again, I love her idea that Snow is actually creating an army that could start an uprising, while trying to keep the victors too broken and divided to actually band together. I continue to love the shared headcanon with Spin Control (including Haymitch's first view of the ocean)Mags does seem to be one of the few victors that has found a way to cope and build a life for herself.

It's so cool to see Haymitch here before he really knows what's in store for him and be able to trace his development from here to there. He knows that his whole life is an arena, he doesn't understand that the Gamemakers are going to release a whole new set of mutts and take the horror to a whole new level. :(

I loved experiencing Haymtich's first encounter with the ocean. Of course he would want to know what was on the other side. :)
