Kinnick

Kinnick is the het ship between Katniss Everdeen and Finnick Odair from The Hunger Games fandom.

Canon
Katniss and Finnick first meet at the opening ceremonies for the Quarter Quell while waiting for the chariots to leave. Finnick approaches Katniss, offering her sugar. Katniss feels a little uncomfortable by how close he gets to her and even more so when Finnick implies people pay him with secrets and asks Katniss if she has any secrets worth his time. However, Katniss doesn't break and simply says she's an open book.

During the 3 days training Finnick continues to be friendly to Katniss when talking to her and even offers to give her an hour of trident lessons in exchange for Katniss giving him an hour of archery instruction.

At the beginning of the 3rd Quarter Quell, Finnick startles Katniss with his proposal for an alliance. She is unsure of how to react, but accepts his offer after she noticed his golden bracelet that she knew came from Haymitch. Still not fully trusting him, Katniss remained wary of his every move. However, he proves himself useful and reliable by reviving Peeta when he accidentally ran into a force field, and saved Peeta in the midst of a fight even though it meant he got wounded himself.

In the beginning of Mockingjay, Finnick was deeply distressed and unable to focus on anything but saving Annie Cresta, who had been kidnapped and was being tortured in the Capitol. One of the ways he kept himself sane was by making knots with a rope, over and over again. He later gave that same rope to Katniss to aid her during the bombing of District 13.

Soon, Katniss mentions the trident Beetee made for him and to put on pants, in wear he jokingly whips his hospital gown off revealing only his underwear and jokes to Katniss if she found it distracting, to which she smiles to, hinting that she was glad that Finnick could at least joke around.

On the mission to President Snow's mansion, the group is attacked by lizard mutations and Finnick was decapitated before he could be rescued. As Finnick dies, Katniss witnesses brief moments of his life, including a silver parachute bearing the trident that won him his Games, Mags' laugh, his life on the seas of District 4, and Annie Cresta's face.
