AU Where the Victors of the Hunger Games are not given a home in Victor’s Village or earnings for winning. But, are sent to the Capitol for a chance at a better life. Forced to leave their families and district behind. Victors in the Capitol must work to survive, those who make enough money, popular, and ‘well behaved’, are allowed to send a fraction of their earnings home.

Katniss has a talent that destines her for success. Her voice. More precious that gold and rubies to her listeners. While singing is sentimental to Katniss, often reminding her of her father, she has no other option. Prim and her mother would starve if they did not receive the money.

Peeta paints. His favorite pieces are of memories from District 12. His most popular pieces are of his games—which he is still traumatized and uses his talent as an outlet. The Capitol people eat this up and buy entire collections. He has tried to send money back to his family, but they adamantly refuse it.

In this AU: Peeta is older than Katniss by two years. Both from District 12. Peeta is not a popular victor, other than his looks and charisma, he won by coincidence in the final three. When two other tributes fought to the death. Katniss—on the other hand—was very popular. She was fierce, determined to win. Even if she couldn’t go back to Twelve, she had to find a way to ensure the survival of her mother and sister.

Katniss performs in operas and plays. Though she tried, she wasn’t made for acting. One night, Peeta obtains a ticket to the opera. Only to be mesmerized by the lead woman. He remembers her from school. How she could sing then too.

This came to me in the car, driving home, listening to Memory from Cats. LMAO.

Surely someone must have written the Everlark Gilmore Girls AU right? Because like -

Fiercely independent single mother Katniss Everdeen raising her sweet, intelligent daughter Prim (who is so close in age they’re practically sisters), and friends with the bakery/café owner Peeta who keeps her fed in cheese buns and bread, and sees her everyday while quietly and patiently pining.

FT: Best friend Madge who Katniss later opens a business with. Grumpy town eccentric Haymitch. Flamboyant dance studio owner and gossip Effie. Prim's best friend Rue who Katniss also ends up mothering because that's who she is. Estranged mother Mrs Everdeen who Katniss felt abandoned by but adores Prim. Local fashion designer Cinna who took Katniss in when she first arrived. And then Prim’s father and Katniss’s teenage sweetheart Gale comes back around periodically wanting another chance but doesn’t realise they’ve changed too much to ever be together.

[thesweetnessofspring]

An Everlark Miss Congeniality AU where everyone in the FBI is like "what agent can we send into this mission at the beauty pageant?" and Agent Peeta says, "um, isn't it obvious Katniss is gorgeous and is the obvious fit for this assignment?" And at first she's like, "wtf? Shut up Peeta, I can't be in a beauty pageant!" And she thinks that he hates her for getting her put on this assignment, but he's just flustered by her because he thinks she's really smart and cool and pretty. Cinna gives her a makeover and Haymitch is her coach, who is a disgraced ex-pageant coach due to his alcoholism, but is smart and knows how to work the contest. Peeta is assigned to be her handler in the case and she realizes that she might have a teensy crush on him, which over the course of the fic turns into a deep deep need to kiss him senseless.

Please share all your thoughts for Frankenstein AU.. Thank you 😊

@curiousnonny

OKAY YES!! several people asked me in the tags but I wanted an ask to answer so thank you nonny ❤️

Anyway, here are my thoughts:

I started thinking about this because it's approaching Halloween season. I was like "would he be a werewolf? A vampire? A ghost?" And then I had my genius epiphany. NO. He would NOT be any of those things. You know what he is? He's a fucking Frankenstein. (Nobody better get on me about "Frankenstein is the scientist" I will BLOCK YOU)

The whole thing of Frankenstein is feeling rejected by your creator. Feeling unwanted. Feeling like a burden, a mistake, a stupid creature. Who feels like that? Our boy Peeta

To make up for people always ignoring/ forgetting he's disabled, I have decided to make him more disabled. So not only does he have a missing leg, but he also has severe chronic pain.

I think for the purposes of this story, he was created by Dr. Gaul. For no other reason than she seems like the type to do that tbh. But! At the time the story takes place, she is long dead, kind of like in Edward Scissorhands.

So Peeta sort of has free reign over this castle, but he was conditioned into submission for so long that he stays in his old habits, like sleeping in a closet in the basement.

Also because of how big he is, he was essentially trained to fear pain instead of retaliating. Otherwise, he definitely could have snapped Gaul in half and run away.

He did try to run away! And his leg was taken away as punishment.

Anyway, on to how he meets Katniss.

He can't stay in the castle forever, and so will venture out into the woods. He'll catch things like rats and eat them raw, since his food has long run out. He does feel bad about it though.

So one rainy day he's in the woods, and so is a beautiful young huntress. But she slips on some rocks and hits her head! (Or falls from a slippery tree, whichever you prefer) And he rescues her. Takes her back to the castle, tries to help her but doesn't really know how, so he just kind of sits there until she wakes up

And when she does. Well. Obviously she is very freaked out. Starts throwing things at this huge intimidating guy in a strange castle. But instead of fighting back, he gets upset and covers his head

So like, she soon realizes that this dude is incapable of hurting a fly. He's just very fucked up

But anyway, that's really all I have. Obviously they fall in love. She teaches him more things about the world. He quickly gets attached to her, feeling things he's never felt before. Then there's the question if his feelings are even real, if he's even real, etcetera.

They're just really sweet. And he's just a gentle giant. And I love it.

OKAY HEAR ME OUT NOW FOR A SECOND.

I’m literally obsessed with this pair at the moment and I don’t even know what’s going on between them. I didn’t even know who that man was… I still don’t have a clue

BUT I’m pretty confident that this could be easily turned into an Everlark AU.

Katniss is the singer, obviously because she can sing, and Peeta is the athlete because yes.

She doesn’t even like sport, but Prim does, and begs her to find someone that could make them go. Katniss is a famous singer so it doesn’t take much effort, but she really doesn’t want to go because she hates being stopped in public or being filmed when she isn’t aware of it. At the end she does go because she doesn’t want to hear Prim complain (and also because we need to make Katniss and Peeta meet).

I don’t really know what happens after a match, but Prim is obsessed with a specific player, and guess who it is? I think you guessed it right. Now they are being escorted out, but Prim asks Katniss to please make her meet him because he is her idol.

They meet him when he is leaving the locker room and well…

Peeta recognizes her, not just because she’s mad famous but because he is literally obsessed with her voice from the first moment he heard her debut song on the radio. He doesn’t know what to do, because he doesn’t want to appear like a creep but he is also staring at her like she is the most beautiful women in the world (he thinks that she is)

He would like to say something but he’s the same Peeta that didn’t say a word to her for eleven years or so in hunger games, so he just gives them a weird smile and an autograph on Prim’s shirt without saying anything.

For the rest you’ll have to wait for someone to actually write this :)

part one: “katniss everdeen is the music industry.”

katniss everdeen (born may 8th, 1989) is a singer-songwriter. her discography spans multiple genres, and her songwriting—often inspired by her personal life—has received critical praise and wide media coverage. born in district 12, everdeen moved to district 2 at age 16 with her songwriting partner, peeta mellark, to become a country artist before eventually shifting to pop and indie. having sold over 200 million records globally, everdeen is one of the best-selling musicians in history. her music is credited with influencing a generation of singer-songwriters.

[vampirehizzies]

everlark x the good place au in which katniss is eleanor because her dire circumstances (neglect from her mother, the need to protect prim) made her quick to act in defense of her own interests and she's generally rash and unlikeable and unafraid to say what she's thinking even if it's hurtful. then peeta who is the antithesis of katniss - kind and loyal and appreciating the beauty of the world, who dedicates his life to his passion of philosophy and believes in innate goodness - and by all means should be in the good place... he "teaches" her goodness but realises that katniss is already virtuous and empathetic and kind in her own way and doesn't need to be made into a more palatable version of herself because that would take away from all the traits that make her her. katniss finally receives the external love and support that she's been craving, and peeta's bond with her helps him overcome his own shortcomings.

naturally, haymitch is michael - because of course he would be the demon torturing them only to form a deeply profound connection with them and want to help them find a life for themselves in the real good place. and maybe even achieve redemption for himself as well.

How I imagine Peeta Mellark in an Everlark hockey romance AU:

[stardust948]

Everlark Borrower AU

Katniss and her family are borrowers who live in the Mellark bakery. After Katniss' father dies, she becomes the main provider for the family and venters into the bakery for food. Peeta sees her once but doesn't say anything least to run her off and leaves scraps of food around for her. Katniss thinks it's a trap and doesn't trust him until she's almost caught by Peeta's mom. Peeta distracts her, giving Katniss enough time to escape, but receives a beating for it. Katniss is confused why a human would go through so much trouble for her and decides to give him a chance.

Trick or treat 🎃🧙🏻‍♀️

If you feel like a prompt: Katniss and Peeta both massively crushing on each other during Halloween, and they’re both clueless that the other one feels the same way

This prompt was so good I kinda ended up writing 4k words on it...oops. Since it's so long I've posted it onto ao3 first, but I've included a little intro after your Halloween song!

(Not a) Couples Costume by thesweetnessofspring

Rated: M

“This is…surprisingly a good costume,” Katniss said as she looked at the picture of a plastic smile model with a Princess Leia costume up against the vinyl bag. When Johanna said she had a costume for Katniss to wear to Delly’s party tonight, Katniss had assumed there would be less of it. Slave-Leia instead of A New Hope -Leia. 

“Just avoid the obnoxious Star Wars fanboys,” Johanna warned. “Unless you enjoy three hours of regurgitated Twitter discourse.”

People wanting long conversations with her had never been a problem for Katniss, so she figured the costume would be safe. Katniss moved into the bathroom to change and Johanna scoffed, ��You can’t even strip in front of your oldest friend, how are you ever going to lose your virginity?”

“Shut up Jo!” Katniss shouted from behind the bathroom door. She’s only eighteen and less than six months out of high school. It’s not weird she hadn’t let some random guy from her job at the pool over summer near her vagina. Her RN mother had been sure to lay out all the risks with being sexually active and prep her with two forms of birth control since she was sixteen. And she was secure in her decision to be selective about what she let inside or near her body.

Of course, that didn’t mean…after a few dates at least…

Oh hell, who was she kidding? There was a guy and maybe Katniss wouldn’t be ready for everything yet, but during Professor Wiress’s lectures she’d wondered more than once what it would feel like to have his hand between her legs. 

Katniss observed in her underwear-clad form in the mirror. She might have small breasts and narrow hips, but she’d never been worried about her appearance before. No, unfortunately, Katniss knew the real reason this guy would never want to see her naked was because of how odd and unsociable she’d always been. It hadn’t bothered her brief summer fling or her equally unsocial ex-boyfriend, but Peeta Mellark was different. 

They’d been in the same year growing up, but while Katniss skirted to the edges, avoiding any sports or clubs, Peeta’s been at the center of them all: football, wrestling, student body treasurer, art club, Key Club. She’d notice him observing her sometimes, though she noted it probably had to do with him pitying her.

They shouldn’t have ever interacted, even. Peeta had been recruited to play football across the country on a scholarship and Katniss planned on taking community college classes while she figured out the next steps. But then Peeta broke his leg the last game of the season, lost his scholarship, and wound up in the same biology class as Katniss at the end of August.

That alone hadn’t been a guarantee they’d ever speak, and Katniss knew Peeta would have continued to not notice her if Professor Wiress hadn’t instructed them to make groups of four for their experiments and projects. Johanna was one of Katniss’s few friends, and she’d started dating Delly over the summer, who was Peeta’s friend. That’s how they’d all ended up in an odd collection of two sapphics, an All-American boy in the twenty-first century, and the girl who never knew what to say to anyone.

Katniss velcroed the collar of the long white Princess Leia dress around her neck and took a deep breath. There’s no need for her stomach to feel like a whirlwind of leaves across the sidewalk. She reminded herself again that it was biological. She was in her prime childbearing years according to her body (though she swore it’d be at least ten years before popping out any of her own) and the procreative imperative was strong. She’d be a fool not to recognize Peeta as an ideal mating partner. Yes, he was handsome and strong, but he was also incredibly giving and kind and creative and could create social connections where Katniss was only met with silence. She could, she would , crush this crush into nothing. She had to when she had nothing to offer to Peeta in exchange that any other girl didn’t have herself.

DYING to know about the 11th hour AU 😬

Okay SO. essentially this is a vaguely medieval royalty au. Katniss and Peeta were betrothed at the age of 5 years old and became good childhood friends, with Peeta visiting her family at their countryside castle every summer for 7 years, until Katniss' father was killed in the woods and a war broke out between their two nations. Jump to 5 years later, the war is over and as a show of peace and unity, their betrothal is back on! Except Katniss hates him now.

Blah blah blah, all this middle stuff, they become friends again and start falling in love. Then a secret plot is revealed, then another secret plot that sort of ruins the other secret plot, and if anyone finds out that they know, they're dead. So they make plans to escape together come spring, but Katniss "can't lie to save her life" of Everdeen accidentally lets on that they plan to leave. So they have to escape in the dead of night in the middle of winter. They're pursued, Peeta sacrifices himself so she can get away, kills a royal soldier in the process, and is captured.

Since this is medieval times, the punishment for trying to run away is his leg being sawn off. Yeowch. But since he killed a soldier, he is set to be executed. And then, well, the drawing happens.
