Summary
James Blackthorn has done the impossible: he's been through two sets of Hunger Games and has lived to tell the tale. But now, he's been captured by the Capitol for saving Peeta and Katniss. Even if he were to escape, he still has a timer on his back from the disease that has yet to be cured.
With snakes on both sides and a game of lies that could end in execution, how much time does Jem really have left?

Summary
My opps (beloved mutuals) on Tumblr forced (politely requested) me to post this, so blame them if it's trash 😁
This steamy fic is starring my OC's Zero and Five, who aren't even canonically in a relationship, but I ship. Don't question that alright, I don't control them. Even authors write fanfiction about their stories 🤷

Bloody Hands are Kind by ThatUselessHuman

Summary
James Blackthorn, 17 year old Victor of the 72nd Hunger Games, thought he was safe from the arena. He thought that because he had already bloodied his hands and left the arena, he'd never have to see another arena through anything but the TV screen. He was wrong, of course. Snow was a liar, always had been.
Now, with promises broken and Jem's time running out to find a cure for the disease slowly killing him, what will happen?

Summary
The wind blew past, but I couldn't feel it, even in my short sleeve t-shirt. I knew, logically, how cold it was outside; how I would most likely be sick if I stood on the edge of the bridge overlooking the small river for too long. There wasn't a soul on the bridge, as it was too cold and too windy and too late for human beings.

Summary
"The Victory Tour was a tradition that started in the early years of the Hunger Games and was made to present the newest Victor to the entirety of Panem. The tradition was loved by those in the Capitol, as any screen time of their newest toy was good. Jem personally thought it was bullshit."

Summary
14 year old James Blackthorn is dying. The disease ravaging his body has no cure, especially in his home district of Six, and it kills all who it touches by 20 years old. Now, is that what inspired him to volunteer for the 72nd Hunger Games and save the sorry sob who would've been chosen? We can't really say. What we can say, however, is that the country of Panem made a mistake when they let him step into that arena.
