* Haymitch's perspective of Thread's actions as the new head Peacekeeper doesn't get too much attention but can feel nerve-wracking. He reflects on the horrible actions of Lucretia Beckett almost 25 years earlier and realizes that Thread may actually be ''worse'' given how he isn't prone to sadistic mind games like Beckett but will just shoot or burn out anyone he feels like hurting without any delay. When Hob denizens Greasy Sae, Wenna, and Claude ask him what advice he has as a survivor of Beckett's reign of terror, Haymitch is helpless to suggest anything besides the CaptainObvious suggestion that they keep their heads down.

* In one of the currently unavailable [=LiveJournal=] stories, Beckett and Cray casually mention that Romulus Thread and his men weren't evacuated from District 12 before Snow firebombed it, and burned alive with the rest of the District. While Thread and most if not all of his subordinates are major {{Asshole Victim}}s, Snow sacrificed dozens if not hundreds of his most fanatically loyal shock troops to such horrible deaths just to avoid giving the district residents a few minutes of warning about his DisproportionateRetribution to the Quell escape. Even more chilling is how thousands more Peacekeepers treat the event so casually and continue to serve the man who had their comrades killed that way.
* Beckett and Cray's deaths in the bombing of [[ElaborateUndergroundBase the Nut]] are a long time coming after the atrocities and cruelties they spent years subjecting District 12 to, but Cray's first-person POV as they are possibly BuriedAlive by a collapsing ceiling can be unnerving.

* Blight makes a deal with tribes of runaways living outside of the districts to attack the tribute trains and liberate the tributes in an effort to stop the Games. However, the raiders are bandits instead of dissidents and try to kill the tributes and rape Effie before Haymitch intervenes, which leads to hours of the District 12 party hiding in a baggage car as bullets fly near them and Haymitch tries to instruct the kids on how to fight back with {{Improvised Weapon}}s if the raiders breach the car. And five other trains go through essentially the same thing.

* One of the missing [=LiveJournal=] stories describes the post-war life of Pollux the Avox. It is mostly an EarnYourHappyEnding story, but it is mentioned that right after the war, he and other Avoxes volunteered for a failed medical experiment to implant new tongues into their bodies so they could talk and taste again. At the time, Pollux was told that his tongue came from a fallen Rebel soldier, but he later learned that it came from a prep team member Coin had executed, and [[TongueTrauma the man may not have been dead yet when they cut his tongue out]].

* Papers from Coin's desk show a long-time obsession with the Hunger Games (even though they weren't mandatory viewing in ''her'' district) and how the Capitol Games were a long-term plan that she invested hours of thought into while planning to keep the Capitol tributes shackled and subjected to worse pre-arena treatment than any other tributes since the 1st Hunger Games.
* District 9 suffers some ugly fighting in both rebellions that hardens its people in ways that give an eerie vibe throughout the war during the few (usually brief) times it is brought up. A TorchesAndPitchforks mob kills the district's long-despised remaining Victors for largely imaginary acts of collaboration with the enemy, and District 9 is the only district whose general populace seems to enthusiastically approve of Coin's bloodthirsty executions and punitive actions against the Capitol and keep rallying to "finish the war once and for all" well after Coin has died and the Capitol has surrendered.

She whips over thirty people and hangs four more (some for very minor offenses) in about a week, openly murders Haymitch's loved ones in brutal manners, forces teenaged boys to have sex with her, puts people in the stocks long enough to cause permanent health problems, and uses sadly successful DivideAndConquer psychological warfare.
