Summary
“Neil,” Andrew says through the darkness. His voice is ragged and exhausted. It’s the closest thing Neil has ever heard him utter to the word please.
It’s this that forces Neil to bow and rest his forehead against his knees. He exhales, unable to believe what he’s about to agree to.
“Alright,” he says eventually. His voice is hoarse from gasping. “I’ll do it.”
Andrew’s grip on the back of his neck tightens. “Do what?”
“Dobson. I’ll go and see her,” he says, looking up.Neil goes to therapy.

Summary
“Do you really think your art is that meaningless?” Neil asks him incredulously. “I chose them. You put them on me. They make me different from everybody else. They’re permanent. They make me feel-,” he almost laughs at himself as he says it, but doesn’t, “-Permanent.”
Andrew doesn’t reply. He flicks the end of his cigarette over the side of the roof. Neil watches it fall, then asks quietly, “If you think your work is worthless, why do you keep putting it on me?”
Andrew turns to face him. Their eyes meet, and Andrew says, “You’re interesting.” Before Neil can respond to this rather substantial admittance from Andrew, he keeps speaking. “Mildly. You’re 1% interesting, which is more than I can say for every other fool that steps foot in that shop.”
AU. Andrew is a tattoo artist. Neil is searching for something to make him permanent.

Summary
“I don’t know why you chose me,” she says after a pause, and her face is inches away from Roman’s, who is breathing raggedly, “I don’t know what it is you see in me. But thank you.” She closes her eyes, drowning out every part of her brain that is telling her she’s making a mistake.
Oh, fuck. Oh. God.
Oh.
Filling in the gaps of Gerri and Roman's love story. Set from 2x05 - 3x09.

Summary
“Don’t-,” his throat is horribly tight. “Yeah, no. I’m fuckin’ fine. Like, it was a lot, but nothing I can’t deal with. I’m not a nutcase, or whatever, I’m not gonna have a fuckin’ ptsd fuelled panic attack everytime someone starts speaking Turkish or some shit.”
“Of course,” she says carefully. They’re quiet again. Then -
“But-,” she clears her throat, “just, hypothetically speaking, if you weren’t alright. You know that, I’m - that you can - talk to me, right?”After Roman returns from Turkey, he struggles. He and Gerri talk.

Summary
“Maybe I'd think that, too, Caesar,” says Peeta bitterly, “if it weren't for the baby.”
As the bomb explodes, it sends accusations of injustice and barbarism and cruelty flying out in every direction. Even the most Capitol Loving, Games-hungry, bloodthirsty person out there can't ignore, at least for a moment, how horrific the whole thing is.
I am pregnant.Peeta drops the baby bomb - but this time, it's true.
