"They'd passed each other in the rain, a chance encounter on a lonely beach. And Katniss wondered how anyone could have a look in their eye as tortured as Peeta Mellark's and still be alive." When their wounded pasts lead them to restart their lives in a small town, both Katniss Everdeen & Peeta Mellark discover that sometimes healing comes from the last place you'd expect it to.

Post-war, Katniss and Peeta learn to live and love again. Post-Mockingjay. Alternating POV. Canon compliant. Rated M for later chapters. (Trigger warnings: there's some violence and smut in here, though not together)

In an alternate universe in which Prim was never reaped, Katniss married Gale at the age of 18, as a good Seam girl should. 12 years later, she has two children with him.

Lover. Mutt. Who is Katniss Everdeen?

"I've been waiting for you." Peeta's voice wasn't accusatory or blunt; it was just a simple statement, a fact. A submission for Prompts in Panem, March 2014. Day 6.

"The air between us seems to vibrate. "What exactly are you doing, Katniss?" I don't answer, because I don't know what the answer to his question is, so instead I reach out one hand and trace his spine with a finger, from his neck down to his boxers. Then my hand falls away, down to the bed." Yes, it's another Everlark first time fic. I've done it before, but this time it's canon.

He thought they made an odd pair, the two of them. The oddness, he thought sadly, surely rested with him. Katniss thought they were perfect. He was perfect. Modern day AU.

A tender post-Mockingjay fic, ever so slightly (and affectionately) based on The Sound of Music. Not an AU, though original characters will crop up here and there.

Katniss/Peeta - post epilogue one-shot. Eighteen years after the Capitol fell, it's reclaiming its hold on Peeta. How much are his memories worth?

For so many years, we've lain side by side, fighting our nightmares, comforting each other, loving each other.
