Summary
“You’re too pretty to be a nun,” she—the patient, the charming patient, Ava Silva, 19, no family, paralyzed from the neck down—tells Beatrice when she walks into the room.
Beatrice doesn't know what to say to that. She doesn’t spend much time looking at herself except to smooth out her hair, to make sure there are no stray pieces of lint on her shirt. She definitely hasn’t thought about the word pretty in relation to herself.
“I’m not,” she tells Ava directly.
“Not pretty or not a nun?"

Summary
“What are you doing?” he questions again as I snap two small twigs from the closest tree. Thankfully, the sound does not disturb our sleeping allies.
I walk back to him slowly, eyeing his face to see if he knows what I am up to. It doesn’t seem like it but I have a feeling there are some excited gasps rising up from the crowds watching back home in District 12.
___________________________________An alternate version of the kiss scene on the beach in "Catching Fire," a scenario where Peeta does not make up the wedding lie during his final interview. A toasting fic.

Summary
“Hey, Kat,” Peeta croaked. His voice was thick and achy, like he had a sore throat.
Haymitch’s hand darted down my back to keep me from toppling over, keeping me steady as I shook.
“Say that again,” I whispered, blinking rapidly as I took in the sight of him.
-------------
Peeta is not hijacked when he is rescued from the Capitol and brought to District 13. Katniss advocated for him faster. The reunion we all wanted, including Katniss.

Summary
“Perhaps we are doing her a favor then,” he says, pausing to chew the inside of his cheek before adding in a measured, careful voice. “I wouldn’t want to live without my love, either.”
Arthur whips around in the saddle to stare at him, eyes hard and dark, like the storm clouds building on the distant horizon. “What love? You haven’t got a love,” he snaps, like he’s the sole keeper of all Merlin’s secrets.
