    Summary

    In an another version of Panem, everyone is born with a part of their consciousness, their soul, if you will, on the outside in animal form. A daemon.
    Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, a person's daemon settles on the animal form it will keep for the rest of their life.

    A daemon settling tells a person something about who they are, because the animal form reflects a part of themselves. When Vivian settles, the moment is mandatory viewing for the entire nation. Because Vivian settled the moment she and Finnick Odair were pulled from the Hunger Games Arena.

    Summary

    Haymitch, from the execution of his mother, brother, and girlfriend through the 51st Games.

    I have an apostrophe problem. According to the metal gates that guard my house, I live in Victors’ Village. It is supposed to belong to more than one victor. I grab a wrench and climb up the gates. They are decorated with metal vines that act as footholds. I cannot get an angle to knock down the apostrophe exclusively, so I end up bending the S as I lever the punctuation out of place. That does not matter. I wedge the wrought-iron apostrophe where it belongs, right after the R.

    I live in Victor’s Village.

    Alone.

    Note: This fic was written before SOTR, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that carries on two rather specific major thematic elements of SOTR (details in endnote). It does not contain SOTR spoilers.

    Summary

    At age fourteen, Finnick is being sold to Snow's close associates in secret, knowing that any failure to comply will result in his family's deaths. After a horrifying first appointment, Finnick finds himself unable to stop resisting his clients. Haymitch tries to help him gain control, without doing more damage.

     "I was brought to the home of my first client. There was…a degree of violence that is never allowed. After that, I couldn’t stop resisting, even though I knew what the consequences would be. I was fighting real clients on real appointments. That’s why it was my tutor’s job to get me to a place where I could tolerate what was being done to me without triggering Snow’s punishment, and to get me there as quickly as possible."

    Summary

    No rebellion. No Mockingjay. Just a girl who won the Games, a boy who never said a word, and a world that moved on without them. Peeta Mellark has lost everything. Katniss Everdeen has everything she never wanted. When she offers him a place to stay, neither of them expects it to last. But between cold mornings and half-baked apologies, something shifts. Because maybe survival isn’t just about what you endure, but who you endure it with.
