I think I am in a different time zone then you guys because I don't have to be up at ridiculously time to answer questions, I just get around to it when I have a minute to look at it. Also if you notice I usually don't answer for hours after the question is posted, as Casey will post at random times, when she has time to.
OrangeI love how orange is the color for danger in this series.
The physical description she gives of Peeta (or at least her view right when she wakes up) is "haggard, pale face of a boy". This is after she thinks that it is her mother waking her up not Peeta.The way that Peeta is acting, Katniss believes that Peeta is not angry about her tricking him, drugging him, and running off to the feast. Or it could just be the fact that she is too beat-up and he is just being gentle at that time waiting for her to be stronger.

I know, right? It's doubly interesting since it is also Peeta's favorite color."
The only reason I realized that orange was linked to danger in this series is because of this trivia game. There was a question about the color of danger in Mockingjay and that was orange (because of the paving stones) and then the last question about the monkeys.
That is actually an interesting point that Peeta's favorite color is orange, could that be connected to the fact that Peeta was always sort of a threat to Katniss. In Hunger Games, he is her competition, as only one tribute can be crowned as victor, and in a regular Hunger Games, Peeta or Katniss would not have both been crowned victors. In Catching Fire, I can't really think of a time where he is a threat (there probably is one). But in Mockingjay, after he is hijacked he is pretty much one of the most dangerous things for Katniss.
(Again, more of my lovely stream of consciousness/rants)
Fake flowers...I remember answering another question about this urn, or I could just be crazy. Also, wow that was a fast update.

If you want to get a better idea about this "trivia game," you can check out the previous discussion it was in:
Catching Fire Questions"
(I have to say this was sure dumb luck that I logged on and Casey had just updated the questions)1. Dress material for Prim, thick blue cotton cloth.
2. Two (ha the answer is the same as the question number.)
3. Pollux
Is it Rue? I feel like this was the part where they were at the training center and he was working at the camouflage station.
Oops that was the movie, in the book she is preoccupied with watching the boy from District 2 send a spear through a dummy's heart from fifteen yards.
3 hours? Sorry, I don't have the book so I'm not totally sure.

a peachI don't remember having to answer this one but this may have been a question from before I actually joined the game.
I would say Nightlock berries, just a guess there.
Ok nevermind on that answer it's the back of Peeta's jacket, which is when they were in the hovercraft after they are pulled out of the arena. Not being pulled out of the arena like I previously thought.
the mockingjay pin? i'm not sure!
Well the man from District 5 was the drunk from the training center who threw up on the sword-fighting floor. Upon being struck by Finnick's trident he sinks to the floor, dead, and Finnick pulls his trident from the man's chest.

Sitting on the floor in front of the kitchen cabinets
She is gathering stuff to take back to her mother, she sits on the floor in front of the kitchen cabinets and starts packing ceramic jars and glass bottles into a box, placing clean cotton bandages between them to prevent them from breaking, she wraps up a bunch of dried flowers.
Weapons mankind no longer has at its disposal: high-flying planes, military satellites, cell disintegration, drones, biological weapons with expiration dates.I was actually going to comment last time on the fact that after she was done packing, that Gale and her had that conversation. Poor Gale :(
I'm just never on time to answer these!
The sky going black and a chorus of frogs begin to sing.
This is really scary that I check this site at the time that the question is posted.

If you are looking for the first time they actually mention a force field, it's when Peeta and Katniss are watching the 2nd Quarter Quell, the Hunger Games that Haymitch won, in Catching Fire. As they watch they see that Haymitch wins by throwing his ax off a cliff only for it the fly back over the ledge and land in the other tributes head. At this point Peeta says "That force field at the bottom of the cliff, it was like the one on the roof of the Training Center. The one that throws you back if you try to jump off and commit suicide."
