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.

Gah so lovely. "They had never been talkers."

The unspoken words are so striking too, because Katniss' thoughts are so non-romantic and Gale's are so romantic. Quite fitting. Sigh.

Thanks so much! Your icon is great, BTW.

Thanks! I made it and feel free to snerch if you like.

Kara/Lee is my obsessive eternal OTP (really my only other fandom besides THG) and I saw sooo many parallels to these two couples when I first read The Hunger Games. In fact a friend and I actually started a comm [livejournal.com profile] good_hunting_hq for fans of both series (though it's mostly BSG fans who like the Hunger Games). I saw tons of moments in Mockingjay that reminded me of BSG also.
