If possible could I request dating headcannons with Finnick Odair? Please and thank u so much 🙏🙏
man thank you for requesting headcanons
- Finnick Odair never planned on falling in love
- It would never be in the cards for him, or so he supposed
- The two of you didn’t even start dating for love, more as a publicity stunt to keep you safe
- Here was Finnick, the shiny, new, perfectly packaged Victor no one saw coming, and here you were, everyone’s favorite from last year
- Getting with you was his best means of protection from late nights with Capitol dwellers who leer at him wherever he goes
- Finnick has always been a particularly beautiful liar, and the Capitol romantics just ate up the idea that their beloved District Four Victors would end up together
- He messed up, though, he fell in love when he wasn’t supposed to
- Maybe he was just too good at playing the game, maybe that was why Finnick stopped caring when the cameras were on and off and started just loving you every moment of every day
- You had a way of looking at him that Finnick hadn’t experienced in a long time, like you were seeing past the skin and bone to whoever was made up of his heart and mind
- He sits with you by the water, watches the sun set, and thinks maybe it wouldn’t be the worst to live the rest of his life with someone after all
- No one bats an eye when you move into his house, when Finnick slips and refers to himself by your last name instead of his, when the only thing either of you fear is the other being taken from you
- Finnick fears weakness, he fears dependency, but he never feels anything but strong when he’s with you
- After a while, he asks you to give up the ruse and love him for real
- You could never say anything but yes :))
