When Katniss and Peeta decide to eat poison berries rather than fight and kill each other, the announcer Claudius Templesmith stops them and announces that they can both be winners after all.

Explain why they did this, and why the Capitol felt it had to stop them. What did this moment show readers about Katniss's and Peeta's characteristics? What theme (moral or message) does this part of the story hint at?

Explain in a paragraph of at least 4 complete sentences.

Answer:

They did it out of love. they loved each other and developed a bond. they had been through so much together that they couldn't even imagine life without each other, so the capitol felt like they had to stop them because they were breaking the rules that they had set for them. the message of this story is to take care of one another and love them as much as you can. your welcome, and hope this makes your day just a little bit better. ;)
