    We Must Be Killers: Tales from District 2 by

    Fandom: Hunger Games (2012), Hunger Games Series - All Media Types, Hunger Games Trilogy - Suzanne Collins

    06 Sep 2024

    Summary

    Tributes, victors, mentors, people who love them. Their lives, their deaths; who remembers, who doesn't.

    Character exploration, missing scenes and backstory for canon and original characters: how the District 2 Career Centre makes its tributes, how they win their Games and how their mentors put them back together. How some rebel, some don't and some never get the chance.

    We grew up in golden light
    Every chance to get it right
    What did we do with it?

    It’s gone, what I had back then is gone
    Can’t get it back again

    Sorry for the things we should have done
    Sorry for the kids we pushed too far
    Sorry now for all the lonely hearts who can’t move on because

    We waited

    For love, for dreams in the night
    For days to come when we’d be all right
    I can’t remember why I did the things I did
    I was just a kid

    All the lines we knew back then, they now are faded
    All the laws we once obeyed, they have betrayed us
    People that I used to hate, I hardly remember
    Forgive the children we once were
    - Delta Rae

    Summary

    Oliver huffs. “Would they actually let me die if I jumped?”

    Alana snorts. “Nah, kid. You'd just bounce right back up here. I tried. Didn't work."

    Oliver hums. How grim. “Do you hate me, Alana?”

    Alana pauses. “Wow, you really don't fuck around, huh. Just straight to the point.”

    Oliver doesn't look away from her. “Yes.

    Alana laughs again, but it's bitter. "Okay, kid. Okay. No, I don't hate you.”

    "Really? Your open hostility towards me sends an entirely different message," Oliver says.

    "I don't hate you. I just hate what your being here means.”

    Oliver frowns, confused. She doesn't say anything else on it, but her gaze shifts past him.Oliver turns to follow it, and it lands on Finnick.

    He's inside the apartment, watching them intently through glass doors. He doesn’t flinch away when he gets caught. Instead some sort of pained look crosses his face just for a moment, then he walks out of sight.

    Oliver's toes and fingers grow numb again, his heart flutters anxiously like a caged bird in his chest.

    Summary

    They won. They played everyone: Panem, the Capitol and the rules. They battled death together and came out as victors.

    …And actually thought that everything would change. But Lucy Gray, who many years ago believed in Coriolanus’s promises and agreed to tie her life with him, suddenly realized that she is now trapped in a golden cage, where she is nothing but a little songbird for the amusement for the public.

    Now, as the Hunger Games carry on, it is the turn of the Snow children to see the Arena in all its glory...

    Summary

    Twenty-four tributes. Four points of view. One arena that can’t sit still.

    In the 68th Hunger Games, the arena cycles through the seasons in brutal succession. Snow melts to flood. Flood burns to ash. Ash gives way to green—and then it begins again. Tannen Holt was supposed to age out. Viatrix Ford never expected to be picked. Elodia Voss didn’t plan to care. And Oren Briar is just trying to hold onto the person who meant the most before the Capitol rewrites him.

    Summary

    196 years in, and the Hunger Games have never been more popular, at least in the ratings that matter. With entire dynasties of victors, record breaking performances, and the most unique and exciting arenas ever, the Capitol spends every summer enthralled. Victors stand at the height of celebrity, beholden to the whims of the public. The districts are left to live with the Games however they can.

    A career dreams of being a hero and champion for his district. A legacy must survive the consequences for the decisions of victors who came before her. A caretaker cannot allow her dying mother or loving girlfriend to see her give up. A victor is tasked with keeping his first tribute alive while still learning to cope with his own survival.

    24 tributes will enter the arena. 24 mentors will guide them. 24 families will watch and hope they come home. In the end, only one can survive.

     

    This is not an NSFW fic, but it does deal with mature themes surrounding the way those in the spotlight are abused.

    Summary

    Catching Fire Pregnant Katniss Everdeen. New CF Arena.

    I look up at him, surprised by the pain in his voice.

    “Do you miss it?” I ask. I think of the lingering touches, the meaningless kisses, the arena. Part of me is consumed with guilt and another, much smaller part, is reminiscent.

    “I cannot say I miss the lies,” Peeta whispers.

    He does not miss the fighting, the death, or my kisses.

    I attempt to stand, hating his answer, but one of my knees buckles. Peeta rushes forward, steadying me.

    “I should take you home,” he says.

    Summary

    “On the seventy-fifth anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that the strongest among them were left to make the most difficult decisions, the male and female tributes will be chosen by their district’s pool of Victors. This year, there will be no volunteers.”

    or

    One mentor nearly tasted back-to-back victories. Now she’s prepared to restore her district to glory.

    Another pulled a Victor from the arena last year. She’s ready to repeat the feat, and prove that her kids are true contenders.

    One Victor survived a Quarter Quell at thirteen. This year, she’s mentoring in a second one at thirty-eight.

    A fourth mentor wants his daughter to enter the ring. He knows that she is the secret to breaking the drought of Victors from their home.

    Yet another will do anything to pull a Victor. She’s choosing someone who can come out, without leaving the best parts of themselves behind in the arena.

    And the sixth? Well, he’ll be glad when his chosen tribute dies, and there is nothing left for him to care about.

    The Seventy-fifth Games are upon us, and the twist and the playing field are entirely different. In a year where Victors select their tributes, anything goes.

    Summary

    My imagining of if Annie Cresta got her own prequel like Sunrise.

    Nobody likes a mad woman. And certainly, nobody could ever love one.
    When the reaping begins for the Seventieth Hunger Games, Annie Cresta volunteers. She's trained for this her whole life. She made the decision herself. It should be easy.
    But as the arena draws closer, Annie finds herself caught in a net. It's not just her reasons for volunteering threatening to unravel, but the impossible feelings growing for her mentor, Finnick Odair. Once, he called her a mermaid. Now he wants her to become one, at least in the eyes of the Capitol.
    Yet nothing can prepare her for what it means to watch children die up close, or what it takes to survive them. As Annie's grip on reality begins to fracture under the weight of Capitol spectacle, torture, and a rebellion that may or may not exist, she finds solace in the one person who will tell her what's real.
    Even if he's drowning in secrets of his own.

     

    - a slow-burn pre-canon Annie x Finnick prequel. Canon-compliant but inspired by ABOSAS and SOTR, things are open for different interpretation and explained by unreliable narration and Capitol propaganda in the trilogy.

    Summary

    When Sienah was younger, she never understood why some tributes left their platforms early. Surely, they must know by now that there are mines underneath. Now, as she looks at the haunting timer slowly changing its numbers, she understands it all too well, and it takes all her might to remain on the stand to stop herself from taking the shortcut home.

    Summary: Sienah Willows only wants to back home to her family, but the moment she notices her fellow tribute, she realizes that she probably won't be able to. How could she ever kill such a child? A kid. Barely twelve years of age. And he's not the only child that's about to compete in a match of life and death.

    She'll protect them. Sienah will gladly shield them from the death and gore at the cost of her own life. But mercy has its own cost as well, and Sienah is about to find out.

    Summary

    First, it had been Juniper and Dylan. Those in District 7 stood with their mouths gaped open in shock as they watched the two teenagers get reaped for the 66th Hunger Games. Out of fear and denial, they tried to chalk it up to chance. After all, there was no way those kids had been picked.

    But when Cynthia and Jasper were reaped the following year the people could no longer deny it. This had nothing to do with chance. It was all by design. They were being chosen for a very specific purpose—to send a message to the district.

    By the time Willow and Finley had been reaped, everyone had come to expect it. The only consolation was that most families didn’t have to worry about their children getting sent to their deaths. They weren’t on what had been deemed the list.

    And so, by the time the 69th Hunger Games came around, Halle Croft knew she was next.

    Because she was the only one left.

    “When you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you’re only telling the world you fear what he might say.” - George R.R. Martin, A Clash of Kings
