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.

[sorry, this is capital-letter free :/ and kind of rushed :/]

she asks him, do you love me because i am not the one who died? her hair is streaming across the pillow. her eyes catch his, and do not let go.

the moonlight is filtering in through the window; it falls silver across her shoulders, across her mouth and her eyelashes. he cannot help thinking that she is something delicate, something to be protected.

of course not, he says. he does not think it is a lie, but these days, he is never sure. i love you because you are you. he thinks, i love you because you survived.

sometimes he thinks he does not know who he is, without the girl on fire. this is not madge undersee's fault; it is something that happened. this is something he does not want to fall to pieces, like everything else he has touched.

he leans forward and presses his mouth to hers.
