Hunger Games Fans? Which one of the boys is more likely to die off in Mockingjay?
Gale or Peeta? Not saying that either one will die fr sure, of course. But based on the information we have, which do you think Collins is more likely to shake off? I'm in an argument with my mom about this. Personally, I think she'll kill Gale. It would give Katniss no choice but to pick Peeta. She thinks the opposite. What about you?
@ Kelly and Alex: You two totally just made my day. x))) And Kelly, if that diesn't end up happening, I think I'm gonna have to write that anyways. xD

Okay i personaly think that gale will die, why? Because look at the facts...
1. Like that person said before me (idk who it was) Gale has only been in the WHOLE series for about a couple chapters, and most of them he was only a thought or a paragraph.
2. I am a team Peeta fan ALL THE WAY!
3. Peeta has loved Katniss since he was five and Gale and Katniss didnt even know each other for that long
5. Even though Katniss denise it, it some of the parts in the books she even says that theres something between her and Peeta
6. Suzanne Collins, by killing off Peeta, would upset millions of people everywhere!
Sooo i think that Katniss finally decides that she loves Peeta, and Gale will give his life for her, and give his life so that Peeta and Katniss can be together. Because Gale will probably do that thing were he just wants her to be happy.
So yes that is what i think:) Thatis also what i hopeand pray will happen!!!:)

First off, Apple Frost, you've made me sad because I don't want Haymitch to die. I don't care who dies as long as Haymitch lives. Actually that's not true. But I'm not going to think about that.
Anyways. I feel bad for Peeta because no one really depends on his life, you know? Like, if Gale or Katniss died, their families wouldn't have any way of getting food. So it kind of makes more sense that Peeta would die. Then again, everything's all out of whack anyways, so maybe that's not a good thing to go by.
I have this feeling that Gale will die. Like someone else said, though I forget who, we don't really know Gale. He's been a huge part of Katniss's life, but, you know, before the actual book started. Katniss and Peeta actually have a romantic history, not a hunting-to-survive history.
I don't want either to die. But I can't imagine Peeta dying. I just can't imagine how it could be written and where the story would go from there. But I can imagine Gale dying. Maybe I'm just being naive.
Gah why do you force me to choose. You're mean. Bye.

It's been such a long time since I read Mockingjay, but there were some things that still stick with me..... I was so, so heartbroken when Finnick was killed. There was something about his character that I loved from the very beginning. I was so happy when he and Annie were reunited, but that was all ruined when he killed off. It was so quick and out of the blue, too! And then the fact that they were going to have a child didn't help at all. Oh my goodness, I was so devastated. I had to put the book down and finish it a while later. The whole ending just felt rushed. I was confused for a lot of it. Prim's death was unexpected, but to be honest I wasn't very moved. I'd just never felt any sort of connection to her character. It seems a lot of people didn't like that Peeta was hijacked, but I found it interesting. I've got mixed feelings about what happened in the end with Gale (or rather, the lack of what happened), but he was another character who I didn't care for much. It was alright. I definitely believe that the first book was the best. I'm sorry I don't have much more to say. Like I said, it's been awhile. :/

Well she better kill someone. If no one dies in this book and it turns out all Breaking Dawn happily ever after I'm going to hate everything forever.
I'm so flipped on this debate. I'll use Harry Potter as an example here, because it's Harry Potter, and it's me, so duh I'll use Harry as an example.
I always wanted Harry and Ginny to get together. You kids might not of been around at this point in the fandom history, but there was basically two camps in the Harry Potter world, Harry/Hermione and Harry/Ginny. I shipped Harry/Ginny. And honestly, call it arrogance, but I had no doubt that they would get together. There were clear clues. Kudos to you Emerson Spartz, Harry/Hermione fans *were* delusional.
Anyway, in this I *want* Katniss to get with Peeta. But the difference is I have no idea whether that's going to happen. No idea. I'm honestly 50/50.
Now to actually address your question, if one of them had to die I'd want it to be Gale. Because I'm a sap and want Katniss and Peeta to get together. I don't see why everyone loves Gale so much. He's only in the story for like 5 chapters. I mean I get they have history and background. But that's all I see it as. I just don't feel it. And I just don't feel like I *know* Gale the way that I know Katniss and Peeta and Haymitch. But that's who I *want* to die, not who I think actually will. Now give me a second to decide what I actually think she will do.
Ok I took like five minutes thinking time and now I'm late for work. I think, of the two, Gale will die. Not looking at it from a plot point of view or anything, just looking at what the previous novels would indicate. I know there are those that disagree, and I've already said, I don't think Gale has enough fleshed out character. Killing Peeta off would, in a way, undermine the entire series I guess. Another Harry Potter analogy, because yeah, it's me. I had this theory, when Deathly Hallows was coming out that JK wouldn't kill Harry because killing him would effectively kill what the series stood for; that love would prevail. And I'm not saying that's what the Hunger Games stands, for, duh. But in the end it's a young adult book. Peeta is the ultimate good guy. It just doesn't sit right in my head that he would die.
EDIT:
so I just reread that and a lot of it doesn't make sense. And I didn't say it particularly well. So i've reworked it a bit.

I think it most likely she'll kill off Peeta. Gale is too hard-core, he can't die. He physically *can't* die. He's like freaking Nicholas Flamel. Peeta, on the other hand, will probably die saving Katniss' life. It'll be like, some Peacekeeper will shoot at Katniss, and then Peeta will dive in front and take the bullet for Katniss, then Katniss puts an arrow in the Peacekeeper's throat. Katniss will bend over Peeta with tears in her eyes and dramatic music will play in the background as Peeta whispers his dying words, "Katniss... I--I love... I love... you...." And the lights in his eyes will go out as Gale runs up behind Katniss and tries to pull her away from Peeta's dead body, but Katniss just won't let go while screaming, "NO! NO! NO!" Then a battle will begin, District 13 and all those other rebels against the Capitol.
True story.
@D4- Oh it *will* happen! Suzanne Collins may as well have called me up and told me all this herself, that's how confident I am!

The other answers about Peeta dying for Katniss seem very realistic.
I really want Katniss to end up with Peeta, he's so sweet!
I hope neither of them die, though.

Kelly said it all, and besides I like the idea of katniss being with Gale, in my head it was always ment to be :) but I still love Peeta :")
- Anonymous1 decade ago
No way. She'll get rid of Peeta. She likes Gale WAY better. Gale is better in my opinion, down to earth, and they have known each other for a lot of years. She has only really known Peeta for a year.

Ever since the beginning, I've had a *bad* feeling about Gale dying. I think it's going to be him (my friend agrees).
I have a bet for Haymitch being killed off, too.
- Anonymous1 decade ago
peeta, because i am team gale. peeta, although he is a sweety, is just weak. though i suppose there's only one author out there, and his fate will be her choice. Then again, maybe nobody dies but Haymitch and peeta married madge..? we can only hope. =/
