    Summary

    "Obviously, her responsibilities meant that by the time Mirabel was 7, she was spending her days alone in a big, sentient house with whom she alone could simply and clearly bilaterally communicate. Over time small things built up."

    In other universes, some part of the family takes over as guardians if Julietta and Agustine drop the ball. But... What if Mirabel only had the house, would it be enough?

    Summary

    Tributes, victors, mentors, people who love them. Their lives, their deaths; who remembers, who doesn't.

    Character exploration, missing scenes and backstory for canon and original characters: how the District 2 Career Centre makes its tributes, how they win their Games and how their mentors put them back together. How some rebel, some don't and some never get the chance.

    We grew up in golden light
    Every chance to get it right
    What did we do with it?

    It’s gone, what I had back then is gone
    Can’t get it back again

    Sorry for the things we should have done
    Sorry for the kids we pushed too far
    Sorry now for all the lonely hearts who can’t move on because

    We waited

    For love, for dreams in the night
    For days to come when we’d be all right
    I can’t remember why I did the things I did
    I was just a kid

    All the lines we knew back then, they now are faded
    All the laws we once obeyed, they have betrayed us
    People that I used to hate, I hardly remember
    Forgive the children we once were

    Summary

    "But what good came of it at last?"
    [...]
    "Why, that I cannot tell," said he;
    "But 't was a famous victory."

    sorrow found me when I was young; sorrow waited, sorrow won
    19 named victors in the Hunger Games trilogy, and not a one escaped unscathed.

    COMPLETE.

    Summary

    Katniss Everdeen-Mellark goes to the woods surrounding New Appalachia, a.k.a the former District Twelve, on the morning of the fiftieth anniversary of the final Reaping of the Hunger Games. There, she is literally waylaid by her own past, and wakes in the past, six weeks before Primrose was first Reaped. Alone, grieving, terrified, and without a clue on how she got there (and then), she realizes that it will be impossible for her- on every level- to simply live through events as they transpired in her personal future. With no way to return her to that future, she is nevertheless determined to get back to her own party - hopefully with a lot less damage and fewer crucial casualties along the way.

    Now, the Mockingjay faces the greatest challenge of her long life... Turning the odds forever and perpetually in her, and Panem's favor, without giving herself away.
