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.

Stunning.

Some of the description in this is just amazing. Even if I wasn't at all acquainted with the fandom, I'd love this, just because of lines like "scrawl of nets" and "beautifully chaotic" and sdhfbdsg guh.

Then there's the emotion and everything is terribly heartbreaking but it's so true. Wonderful. :D

five things about finnick odair (and annie cresta in every way)



i.

Finnick does not say please simply because he doesn’t have to.

(Fact: the face pretty much says it all. Really.)


ii.

Finnick is to Annie as Finnick is to pretty. He will hold her with his arms around her waist and his skin draped in her scent - but we all know who does the supporting.

(Fiction: Finnick does not think he needs anyone.)


iii.

Finnick will say don’t let me go because Annie is Annie, and she controls the strings to his heart, as clichéd as it sounds. She controls the strings to his heart and a pragmatist might say it all comes down to his survival.

(Fact: this is something of the truth.)


iv.

Finnick is passionate, Finnick is strong, Finnick is everything all at once when it comes to Annie.

(Fiction: Finnick has no weaknesses.)


v.

Finnick will hold Annie in his arms and on the days where she is not Annie, but the merest slip of someone he once knew, he will want to cry - but Finnick doesn’t. Finnick isn’t weak like that.

Finnick will run his fingers through her hair, Finnick will relax against her, Finnick will let Annie hold him.

He will say Annie and what he means is I desperately need you.

(Fact: where there is Finnick Odair, there is Annie Cresta.)



notes: this is really weird. it might be because its midnight almost and i’m procrastinating from studying. i apologise if anyone gets weirded out :)

(Fiction: Finnick has no weaknesses.)
