you said i could have anything i wanted

living proof. the 100. clarke. clarke/bellamy. post-2x04.

They’ve been here for long enough to almost get used to the acid fogs and the night watches and the strange, tough meat of the Earth, but she’s never going to get used to the absence of machine hums. She prefers this, of course, the ability to hear far beyond the confines of anything. She doesn’t have confines anymore.

The Softest Bullet Ever Shot (1/2)
The Hunger Games. Katniss. Katniss/Gale, Katniss/Peeta.
Catching Fire AU: For the 75th hunger games, Tributes will be reaped from the ages of 18 to 25.
Note: All the thanks in the world to Statler, who has some sort of editing witchcraft we should bottle and sell to science. Title is from The Flaming Lips' "The Spark That Bled (The Softest Bullet Ever Shot)". Many thanks to Harlan also, for putting this idea in my head in the first place. Also, as a trigger warning, there is one particular reference of Katniss scratching herself up (unconsciously, but), and one scene where she has a nightmare and scratches up a table, so her hands bleed quite a bit. If these could be triggering for you, I am happy to pass along an alternative copy of this fic with those scenes edited out. Just let me know.

“I’ll burn them to the ground,” she finds herself saying, albeit without an ounce of fire in her. It’s just a cold dead fact in the world. They are going to take Gale from her and she’ll put an arrow through Snow’s throat for it.

come and find me lying in the bed i made
katniss' mom. before, through and immediately post-the hunger games (book)
featuring many, many textual liberties. title from anaïs mitchell's Flowers (Eurydice's Song). for the THG comment ficathon, but I realized I made a couple errors after people had commented, so immediate repost it is.
Katniss scolds her and tells her to keep it together. Katniss has never been the forgiving sort. Or maybe Penelope has just never deserved it.

a strange fate with wandering limbs (1/2)
Gossip Girl. Dan. Dan/Blair. Rated R.
“You have a very heteronormative notion of intercourse, you know,” he says, pulling down her stockings anyway. | Miscommunications, make-outs, and the first thirty-three days of dating Blair Waldorf.
Notes: Post-5x17 with very, very loose speculation based on the promo for 5x18. Will inevitably be AU once the episode airs. This is also the most collaborative project to ever, and would have been absolutely impossible without the help of aragons, miss_mishi, and jeynebesterling. Title from Kimbra's "Wandering Limbs"

Easy
(Blueverse) Olivia. Lincoln/Olivia, Peter/Olivia.
Emptiness without Peter wasn’t any better or worse than emptiness with him. It was just different. "I was happy without you,” she says.
Contains references through 3x03

( Easy )



Concrit forever welcome

i'll be re-posting some fics from the at the close ficathon over the next couple of days so i can keep them organized. :)

we're not ones for busting through walls
lavender brown, post-war. for the at the close ficathon. title from kate bush's 'suspended in gaffa'
There are patterns, of course.

A Tree in a Storm (Or: Eight things that never happened to Ginny Weasley)
Harry Potter. Ginny. Neville/Ginny, Harry/Ginny.
For the Personal Canon meme on Tumblr.
It is a very quiet year when Ron goes to Hogwarts. Above all things, Ginny is used to him, used to the noise of a brother in this too-large, crumbling house.

( A Tree in a Storm )

Stay
Parks and Rec. Ben/Leslie.
Sort of spoilers through Harvest Fest. Many thanks to miss_mishi for the beta.
As might be obvious by now, Ben’s a simple guy. Go to work, crunch the numbers, try not to put too many people out of a job while recognizing that some people have to go. Go from work to the motel to the takeout menus in the drawer next to the fridge.

( Stay )

a fight so old
lilah morgan. wesley/lilah.
for eleusis_walks at the what-if ficathon, prompt: "Lilah is Angel's liaison to the Senior Partners."
Lilah freezes. She's not very good at advice. "Play it out," she says after a moment. "That's all you can do."
a/n: needless to say, this is an AU for AtS s5.

( a fight so old its body complains )

just noting while i'm here that my lee adama personal canon is going to be large enough to fill volumes. i've had to divide it up by season. season three might have to be divided by half season. why do i make these choices.

anyway. mostly i'm posting this because calikalie made me a cho icon and i wanted to use it. :)



a glass cage heart or: six facts you didn't know about cho chang.
resposted from tumblr.
Cho sits in the kitchen for the next two hours with a cup of tea that soon goes cold, trying to think about the next move. Her first step.
