    Summary

    My uncle is the only living Victor in the District; as such, he is one of the few who never goes hungry. But, as I think about the mandatory Game to watch, I'm not envious of him. The Hunger Games is always bloody and horrific.
    But even though Haymitch would have plenty to give, my father never asked him for anything. Which Gale knows very well.
    'His brother' I correct Gale darkly. Whatever the conflict between my father and my uncle, my Dad considers him a full-fledged brother, even though their father is not shared. Which, again, Gale knows very well.

    Or, its a different universe, and Katniss's dad is alive. It helps some things, and some things are...dark as ever.

    He wasn’t prepared for Burdock’s name to be reaped from the bowl.

    Summary

    I clearly learned nothing from Sunrise On The Reaping and the way it broke my heart into a million little pieces which is why I'm writing this purely to break my own heart again. Instead of Peeta volunteering for Haymitch, he...doesn't (read the fic for why). So, surprise, surprise, it's Haymitch going into the arena facing all of his old friends and mentors.

    Summary

    Moving to Italy had been for a change of scenery. Getting involved with the Mafia of all things wasn't in the plan. And what the hell was a Sky anyway?

    Summary

    “I understand you so much better now!” Tim jeered maniacally, not seeming to notice Dick’s attempts to shepherd him back and away. “Oh my god, how do you even think straight?”

    “Timmy, that’s enough, come on—“

    Tim shoved a hand hard against Dick’s sternum, and Jason could see it then, a sharp shift in his mood, attempting to move around him before Dick’s arm caught him at the waist again. “Seriously, not that it’s a competition, I mean, I would win—but I suppose you did claw your way out of a grave whereas I didn’t even reach mine, so, tomayto tomahto—“
