"I've never rebelled or stood up and yelled or even just held my head high. And all of the feelings unspoken, all of the truths unsaid, they're all that remain of the life I never led." Alan Menken, Sister Act. A story in which Madge Undersee and Gale Hawthorne are Reaped for the 74th Hunger Games. Partially inspired by great The Last Reaping in District 12 by RoryFaller. Enjoy.

Katniss returns home after her mom died. She finds a picture of Peeta Mellark, a younger man (only 10 years older than Katniss), with whom her mother had a short affair ... A series of letters chronicling the love story of Katniss and Peeta as they try to resolve their stalled relationship. This fic is complete, and I'll be updating it at least weekly.

Enjoy the most wonderful time of the year with the Mellark family as they celebrate a quiet Christmas in District 12. Disclaimer: I do not own the Hunger Games.

"Katniss peers at him curiously. She bites her lip. "How…. how will you know?" "What?" "… When you like a person enough to marry them?" He shrugs. My mother just says you are certain." He frowns. "And… I suppose it would feel like…" "Like what?" ... "Swooping feeling?" They both freeze, Peeta gazing at Katniss intently. "Yeah. I…. imagine it would feel like that."

In an alternate universe where a special portion of population of Panem can grow lovemarks on their skin for anyone precious to them Katniss Everdeen struggles with making sure no other flowers sprout on her skin except the primroses around her wrist for her baby sister. However, going into the Hunger Games with Peeta Mellark might make that difficult.

It takes her ten years, but eventually Cashmere realizes that death is a kinder fate than the life of a victor. Or five times Cashmere wished she could have saved her tribute, and the one time she was thankful she couldn’t.

Peeta Mellark is a regular patient of Katniss's mother and sister. Overtime, the Seam huntress falls in love with her family's patient. "She holds the compact, circular tin out to Peeta now, making sure to look him in his….. entrancing blue eyes…. as she does so. She is flustered by how Peeta gazes right back, and she feels his hand grasp the tin. Electricity shoots up her skin."

"No matter how far Panem progresses, at the end of the day, it's always the same." Fifteen years and thirteen Career Victors, the Games have becomes a slave to repetition. And the Capitol wants it that way. Let's hope they get their wishes for the 94th Anniversary of a war that was never worth fighting. [On Hiatus.]

Stop there and let me correct it, I wanna live life from a new perspective... When a virus breaks out, bringing District 2 to its knees, Panem enters an unprecedented era. District 2 hasn't managed to produce a volunteer for three years, crumbling beneath the weight of the Golden Flames. Will the titan District manage to regain their rightful throne? Or will despair prevail?

This year the Tributes will be split into teams. A whole team can win if they all survive but can they survive the Arena the Gamemakers have planned for them? Or will they slowly turn on each other? SYOT/SYOC OPEN

In another world, Katniss Everdeen might have volunteered for young Primrose, but the baker's daughter beat her to it. Jaydah might have stood a chance against the other tributes, too, had her brother's name not been drawn and all reservations for her own life were thrown out the window. [Cato/OC]

These are the Behind the Scenes drabbles and deleted scenes from The Lady of the Lake, as requested by reviewers. Including stories from Finnick, Cato, Katniss, Deccia, Peeta and many more.

Who would run for President for District 12?

(Sequel to Burning Bright & Blazing Free.) After most survived the journey to freedom, our remaining group of victors and family members must deal with the fallout of their choices and those they lost. There's a rebellion stirring, President Snow is out for blood, and everyone wants our heroes to choose sides.*Trigger warning, torture, suicidal thoughts, etc Also on AO3.

What if Katniss took the beating for Gale?

Eran dos adolescentes en una cueva… Katniss era tímida y Peeta apenas se estaba recuperándose luego de que las medicinas del Capitolio hicieran efecto, pero eran jóvenes, hormonales, compartiendo el reducido espacio que suponía aquella cueva y aquel saco de dormir. Necesitaban patrocinadores que creyeran en la historia de los trágicos amantes de Doce, ¿Verdad?

I wrote Darius/Katniss before extensively, years ago. I wanted to take another stab at it. "Later, outside on the front porch, while Gale is being tended to by her mother and Prim on their kitchen table, Katniss takes Darius's face in her hands and, in gratitude, gives him the kiss he once asked for. It is only their second, and the first one initiated by her. He's earned it."

I expanded a off-shoot storyline from None Of It Matters. Plus, I don't think it's a pairing that has been done before, but it is a compelling one. Delly/Gale. "As Delly stands on the front porch, hearing the sounds of childish screams and chaos inside, she smiles to herself. If this works out, she will have to find a way to thank Katniss one day – and perhaps for more than just la

Katniss and Peeta become mentors in the 73rd Hunger Games. There was on uprising because the siblings Finnick and Aquamarine won their games. How do Katniss and Peeta adjust to the new world of being Victors? Cato won his games and married Aquamarine. How does Katniss learn to work together with the careers she hates? Can she see their good side? Will they get free from Snow?

A "Hunger Games" take on "The Twelve Days Of Christmas" in which the gifts relate to each district's main industry.

Arda Welk is a scrappy 13 year old from District 12 and she is drafted for the 72nd Hunger Games, she doesn't win, but she doesn't die either...

Katniss Everdeen's Christmas Eve goes awry when she makes a last minute visit to a department store.

"When Peeta suddenly takes a deliberate step into her, she doesn't shy away. She is trembling, though, even as she solemnly raises her eyes to his. She tilts her head back the slightest bit, almost in challenge. Gale would be furious, if he saw how passionately, languorously, she is kissing this man. Katniss doesn't care. Capitol, Victor, Townie, Seam – none of it matters."

"Someone lightly taps her shoulder. She opens her eyes. It's one of the cameramen. His hands are now furiously cutting through the air, with motions that are too deliberate to be involuntary. It's like he's conducting a symphony. Katniss sees beauty and music in whatever he is trying to express. The cameraman has massive hands. She marvels at how such large hands can be so prec

He's the perfect Career: athletic, heartless, and trained to kill. She's a nameless District 8 orphan; weak, starving, yet stunningly clever. When the two tributes are inescapably linked through the Gamemakers' newest twist in the Games, their strategies fly out the window. Will Rochelle and August find a way to survive this new twist, or will they be lost to history?
