Look, I’m totally on board with Jena Malone and I think she’s gonna be great (and let’s be honest, I’m just glad she’s not Kristen Bell or Naya Rivera), but Krysten Ritter will always be my Johanna Mason inside my head. My Johanna headcanons are long and complicated and basically, her addiction issues did not start with the morphling in 13 but waaaaaay before that, like right post-winning, and she and Finnick had an incredibly complex relationship wherein they spent a lot of time with each other and they’re the only people who really understand what the other’s gone through, and they started working for the revolutionaries because they both harbor so much resentment and hate toward the state and when Katniss becomes the mockingjay, it just throws Johanna a little further down the crazy path because all she wanted was to be the symbol of the proletariat revenge and now she won’t even get this one thing she’s willing to sacrifice her life for, and basically what I’m getting at is that Johanna Mason is, in my mind, a junkie fuckup whose “LET’S GET NAKED!” tendencies come from a long history of sexual abuse and who resents Katniss not just because Man, girls suck, huh? That’s why I only have guy friends! but because Katniss represents another thing she’s had stolen from her.

And this, for some reason, is the face I have in my head when I write Johanna fic and now you know and SORRY IF THAT MAKES ME RACIST, Y’ALL, I DON’T KNOW WHY I SUBCONSCIOUSLY CHOSE HER BUT I DID.
