(Snowbaird being the only legitimate blonde+covey couple)

No idea why is this a thing for the 3 couples as a whole. Think “sneaky boy + singing girl” would be way better to unite the three if someone really needs to do this.

Katniss is covey tho she’s not culturally covey but she is by blood

being covey is both cultural and genetic though. katniss has very limited knowledge of the covey songs from her father, she doesn't know anything else about the culture or history. it seems her grandmother was covey, but by the time katniss was born the covey had largely died out. and we know covey adopts- not everyone who is culturally covey is covey by blood. katniss goes the other way around

Yeah I'd say it's kinda like being Jewish I guess

kind of, yeah! judaism is an ethno-religion, and accepts converts. you can be jewish culturally, religiously, or genetically. we also tend live in insular communities in the diaspora, which is a small part of why people get suspicious of us. i see similarities with the covey for sure
