A story chronicling the life of Finnick Odair, Panem's golden boy and the youngest victor in the history of the Hunger Games

"Sink me in the river, at dawn; send me away with the words of a love song." A shattered Panem rests on the shoulders of a faltering poet, while a betrothed sews an invisible plan, and all the while the Games go on and on. Nobody knows it, but things are about to change. (SYOT Closed!)

Direct Variation: a mathematical term for the equation y kx, in which "k" is a constant, 23 in our case, and "x" is a variable, standing for the number of Games, of course. It's a perfect equation, but unexplainably, there are inconsistencies. And if they have their way, there will be more.

Twenty-four Games and 552 bodies dead on the ground. The Capitol now expects more than senseless killing, craving a show that ends with a star. Head Gamemaker Coriolanus Snow has kept them entertained thus far, and with a new trick up his sleeve, he'll dazzle them once more. This is the year he establishes himself as king. Welcome to the First Quarter Quell.

The night of Prim's safe return, Katniss goes to Peeta in his bed. Overcome by gratitude and no longer repulsed by the burns on his face, she kisses him. When she feels him kiss her back, she impulsively straddles him and they make awkward love. She cums for him, despite herself. When she glimpses his penis coated in her virginal blood and cum, she takes him deep into her throat.

Coriolanus Snow has a plan to destroy the Star-Crossed Lovers from District 12. But as the Quell begins and romance blossoms between a tribute and a mentor, Snow realises that there's another pair of Star-Crossed Lovers he has to watch out for. But this pair might be Snow's only hope to stop the rebellion. He just has to ensure they support him, by any means necessary…

The day after aging out of the Reaping, Katniss crosses paths with Peeta. She thanks him for the bread and to her surprise, a tentative friendship begins. I have chapters 1-22 complete and will be finishing up the rest of them soon, but I'm only going to move the chapters over here a few at a time. Thanks for reading. Mild sexual content.

Clove and Cato are childhood friends and it’s only years later when they go to the 74 Th. Hunger games. Only the thing is that Clove is Pregnant and guess who the father is... you guessed right, Cato

Over the course of 75 years, 75 teenagers survived the arena. The best and brightest of Panem, these teenagers made it through what could only be described as a horror. These are their stories.

Victor. Mentor. Pawn. These are identities Ceres Rhythe, Victor of the 68th annual Hunger Games, has familiarized herself with in order to survive. But something is changing, a flame rises where there were once bones. From ashes begins conversion. Let the 74th annual Hunger Games begin. Finnick/OC, mild Seneca/OC

This is a parody SYOT of The Hunger Games.

"May your survival be long, and your death be swift."

"We hold these truths to be self evident that we believe all men and women, all boys and girls, in all the districts are endowed to certain inalienable rights. Freedom to live, freedom to die, and the pursuit of mortality. We give you your personal declaration of death." Signed, the 2nd Hunger Games {SYOT CLOSED}

The 'Flower of Panem' or 'Angel of Mercy', Seraphine Reza is the jewel and pride of Panem. One of their most treasured victors in the history of the Hunger Games and a favorite of President Snow. While she smiles, comforts and plays her part every time the games start again, in her mind, her own game never ended. She keeps her enemies close and plays the part of the perfect victor.

As the 74th Hunger Games approach, the idea of a free Panem is mere wishful thinking, but there are some who wonder how a country can recover from so many years of brutal dictatorship. Sooner than they ever dared to hope, they will turn their plans into reality and put a regime on trial, but the path to getting justice for an entire nation will be long and difficult. IPOAL prequel.

We might call ourselves civilized, but deep inside, we're nothing more than beasts. Anyone who enters will have to make the choice between leaving with their life or their humanity. Let the 95th Annual Hunger Games begin. Rated T because it's the Hunger Games. (SYOT closed. Thanks to everyone who submitted a tribute!) (BLOODBATH OUT!)

After the events of the failed Second Rebellion, President Snow famously declared that the 75th Hunger Games would be recreated for the 150th Games to make up for the failed Games. Since that day, the Victors of Panem have dreaded the day they would have to re-enter the Arena. That day has finally arrived. What will it take to outmatch Panem's most dangerous killers?

My tears have subsided for the moment, all that's left are the sporadic, leftover whimpering sniffles. "Whatever lies before us Katniss, we'll figure it out together, okay? As long as I have you, everything else is just details."

President Snow is young, dashing, and wholeheartedly convinced that his first Hunger Games are going to be the most refined to the date. [SYOT Open!]

A Victor's child is probably the most prestigious title anyone could have in the Capitol's opinion. But the reality wasn't as great as they made it look. Dove Ogilvy, the youngest out of the three adoptive children of Librae Ogilvy, came to realise at a very young age. However, President Coriolanus Snow had other plans for her. Plans that involved Finnick Odair in them.

The caged bird doesn't sing: it weeps. For a gilded cage is still a cage, no matter how beautiful it is. Welcome to the 88th Hunger Games. SYOT closed, readers always welcome :)

Everyone knows that the Hunger Games are about violence, but real fans know the truth: they're also romantic. The blood, the roses, the tension, the fashion, the dreams of money and fame. The Hunger Games are the union of violence and romance, and these tributes are about to go on their honeymoon. (OPEN SYOT, readers can sponsor). My 3rd SYOT!
