You did a great job with this! I very much enjoyed seeing you paint out this scenario and make it believable. What I found the most striking was how you managed to convey the importance that both of them brought to the rebel cause. How it is when Peeta with his words combine with Katniss's fire that there is the greatest effect on Panem, and there's just something missing when one is without the other. Like you mentioned, often people consider how Katniss manages without Peeta, so it is nice to see it in reverse.

This is exactly how I think it would of happened if Peeta was the only one who won. Nothing changed really. District 13 became the new Capitol. You need both words and spirit to make a rebellion.
