    Summary

    When asked to discuss his songwriting process, Bradshaw merely cocked his head to the side. “What do you mean?” he clarified, taking a drag of his cigarette as I rephrased the question. “I don’t know man,” he said, “I just write them.” The comment made me wonder if Bradshaw even does write their songs. Hailed as a poetic genius by this very publication previously, I see none of the eloquence found in his lyrics to be present in our conversation.

    If I didn’t know better, I would say that Bradshaw was being difficult on purpose. But, it’s clear that despite his pretty face, he really is just that dumb.

    Summary

    I vow not to fight anymore, if we survive the Great War.

    The question stands: How would the presence of surviving, young Career Victors change the trajectory of the quell and the subsequent rebellion? How would the involvement of the most loyal district's best and youngest shift the tides of a revolution?

    Follows Clove and Cato through exactly that. Their independent Hunger Games wins, the subsequent quell, and a war they never intended to become apart of.

    TL;DR: The original career pack (Glimmer, Marvel, Cato, and Clove), win separately in games prior to the 74th, and their lives change drastically as a result. Clato centric.

    Summary

    Jake, at age 18, knows what's expected of him. If he wants to get ahead in life, he needs to find himself a patron - an older man who will take Jake under his wing and mentor him, in exchange for companionship. Yes, that kind of 'companionship'. But Jake's known for almost his whole life that this is what is expected of him, and so he's determined to find a good patron and get it over with so that he can get a leg up in the world. It's only a four year contract, after all, and Jake can make it four years, right?

    (An au based on the historical fact that in Ancient Rome, there used to be older man/younger man sexual relationships where the older guys mentored and introduced their boy toys to important business contacts and in return got cute boys warming their beds and they seem like they were actually pretty wholesome mentorships and shit)

    (Eventual IceMavJake but it'll probably be a slowish kind of burn because Mav is gonna take care of his boy and doesn't want to force him into anything)
