Removed "Villain Sue", since it is now a Flame Bait example that should not be allowed; see "Flame Bait" page for more details.

** And the scene where she tells him [[spoiler:how Namer was taken away by the Capitol and begs him not to leave her too.]]
** Francesca and Holland are made of these.
** Marshall's "As long as we're together, everything will be fine." Doubles as a {{Tearjerker}}.

Added DiffLines:

* OneSceneWonder: Notably subverted. While many stories with that number of characters will give only a reaping chapter and ''maybe'' a pre-Games perspective to each, each character gets a reaping of thousands upon thousands of words, and multiple perspective before the beginning of the Games, just in case.

* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: Poor, poor [[spoiler: Sugar the party crasher.]]
** Evon's prep for the chariot ride also counts.
** Ferroh and Faye-Anna find Iilvsea Crane and the CreepyTwins torturing someone to death. That's bad enough, but it gets worse when Iilvsea talks to Ferroh, gets him a bandage for Faye-Anna and tells him to go enjoy the party ''while the poor bastard she's torturing is right there'', and she's as happy as a kid in a candy shop.
** Julian's eye color was changed to blue surgically ''while he was still a fetus''.

* AngstWhatAngst: Most of the tributes are only too ready to angst, but Francesca seems a ''liiiiiiiiiittle'' too happy about the whole thing. But it works.

* HilariousInHindsight: Holland's submission profile asked that if he died, that he would at least get to "fall down a tree or something first", which adds a new layer to his accident with the model tree during his private training session.

* TheWoobie: Most characters have an aspect of this at some point or another, but Sector One sticks out, with Liotta young and helpless and Jason having wings painfully implanted into his back.
