THE HUNGER GAMES DRABBLE MEME

With the release of the finale book of The Hunger Games Trilogy imminent, it seems like an excellent time for a comment meme to whet fandom's appetite. (Plus I just finished my third reread of the first two books and yet still want more!)

So I present.....


THE HUNGER GAMES DRABBLE MEME

How To Play
1. Place a prompt as a comment.
2. Comment with as many prompts as you want. Seriously. Don’t be shy.
3. Reply to a prompt comment with corresponding story! This is a “drabble meme,” so no pressure to write anything more than 500 words. But I doubt any lucky OP would receive an unexpected epic with anger, right? So write whatsha want.
4. Feel free to pimp out this meme to all the communities you can think of + your flist! The more the merrier!

Prompt Examples
A lyric or quote! Katniss/Peeta, "Lend me a helping hand ‘cause I’ve been treating your heaven like a one night stand."
A word! Gale, patient.
A kink! Madge/Katniss, blindfold.
A bit of dialogue! Finnick/Annie, "I just miss you when you're gone."
An action! Prim, mending clothes.
A situation! Johanna/Haymitch, killing time at the Capital.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Oh, this is exactly what I wanted! Something very them, showing the rough edges and the way they're similar. Fantastic job.

Some favorite lines:

She thinks this the ultimate sign of weakness; they've all been through the exact same thing. Anyone who can't mask their remorse didn't deserve to win at all.

She bites, but her voice isn't quite as reprimanding as she wanted it to be, and, okay, she might be smiling a little. Somewhere there is a line between horrible and hilarious and she lost sight of it a long time ago.

Neither of them have ever taken a tribute home with them, and it's beginning to wear them out.

Awww.
