#everlark nonsense

[ginger-bread-is-good]

Time for another random fic idea for Everlark, today it is Hunter!Katniss X Vegan or non human eating!Wendigo!Peeta

In Panem AU but no games

Basically Peeta is a Wendigo but a nice one 🥰, in myth I believe they crave human flesh but I'm unsure if they become full fledged carnivores, if they do I'm gonna retcon that fact. Anyways Peeta becomes a Wendigo after his mother attacks him leaving him fatally wounded, one of the ways someone can become a Wendigo is through intense conditions so I'm gonna assume this counts.

The general idea that Katniss notices Peeta is missing, girlie would unintentionally watch him throughout school and notice he wasn't there, during a hunting expedition Kat hears the wendigos screech, now Katniss would only recognise this from when her father taught her this when she was really young so it isn't until later that night that she remember his lesson. She returns the next day only to find nothing out of sorts, however another clique spawns and a storm approaches, she is forced to stay at the cabin beside the lake which is already being used by Peeta, once she gets there she notices the markings of someone using it recently but realises she doesn't have much of a choice with the storm.

Peeta comes back after he tried hunting for food but being raised in a bakery didn't leave time for foraging tips, when he gets there Katniss is already asleep but she wakes up from her sleeping in an unknown location, Katniss would react in composed hysteria while Peeta would try to calm her down, he would change back into his human form confusing her even more. The result being Katniss wondering how the sweet baker turned into a flesh eating monster, where she then learns from Peeta the details of what happened and how Peeta keeps stating that he refuses to eat human flesh.

Throughout the night they echange stories and get to know eachother, after the storm passes Katniss helps hunt for her and Peeta so he doesn't starve to death, the ensuring agreement being that Katniss helps teach him to hunt while she in return gets a Wendigo bestfriend. Once Katniss understand her feelings for him I would assume she would be hesitant to say anything but from some goading from Prim who only knows she has a crush on someone she finally tells him her true feelings.

Once they become a couple I would like to think that Peeta becomes slightly more possessive of her than he would normally be, not in the sense that he would stop her but that others trying to flirt or be with her ignites his possessive side easily, this is due in part from him practically being part animal. Katniss would also like to introduce Peeta back into D12 by saying that he hid out in the forest where he hunted for food and fell in love with her, but some people especially the few hunters would be sceptical of him, especially with the screeching that is sometimes heard.

Now the ending, Katniss and Peeta probably marry eachother now that his life is known again, potentially someone like Gale might figure out he is a Wendigo and try to kill Peeta to 'save' Katniss, because from his point of view Peeta is a monster. This could either be resolved quietly with Katniss explaining things to Gale or have Gale tell the town and have Katniss force them to kill her along side Peeta if they wish to hurt him, forcing them to listen to her. In the end they renovate the log cabin at the lake and as the lack of birth control options is apparent in Panem they would have children early on, maybe around age 19 or higher, but regardless they love their child and the future ones to come and live happily ever after mwah.

Katniss & Peeta: Toastbaby Discipline

Curious what ya'll think - how would they ground their children if necessary? A couple of things I think WON'T happen: 1.) Hitting or Yelling - I could see Peeta having to unlearn instinctive reactions at first, having grown up in a verbally and physically abusive household. But I think if he did it even ONCE it would horrify him and he would absolutely put his foot down on that being the way anyone in his family ever treats each other. 2.) Food Control - They are NEVER sending their kids to bed without supper. Hunger is not something they'll ever use as a punishment, even lightly. Katniss especially would NEVER let her children go to sleep hungry for something they did. (I like the idea of having to help Haymitch with some task or spending time with Auntie Johanna on her wilderness treks. She'll pick them up and just be like, "hey kid, what the fuck?" but then fistbump them when their parents turn their backs.)

The Hunger Games + The Onion: "Things to Never Say to Someone That Just Came Out"

I'm thinking of doing another round of Hunger Games and satire article titles before the release of Songbirds and Snakes. But this was begging to be done.

Runner-up for Finnick was "Are you queerbaiting me?"

Runner-up for Peeta was "Your mother and I still love you."

Was Mr. Mellark the Gale to Mr and Mrs Everdeen?

I wrote a fic with Effie and Peeta really getting into crafting and Haymitch and Katniss sometimes trying to get involved because they love Effie and Peeta but neither of them have the patience so Effie and Peeta gently tell them to go and do something more useful. And now I can’t stop thinking of Haymitch and Katniss just sitting at the table with them and like trying to mix colours or decorate something or trying to thread a needle annoying each other and being competitive whilst also being like HOW THE FU- and of course Effie and Peeta saying it’s going to be hard you’ve only just started but at the same time struggling to keep a straight face

Sometimes I get so soft because I firmly believe that even without taking into consideration the games Katniss and Peeta ended up in a home better than the ones they grew up in. Peeta helps take the responsibility off of her and makes her smile! Katniss is safer and more caring towards Peeta even when she’s grumpy! I really do love the “I know this would’ve happened anyway” because I do really believe they give each other something nobody else can. This may be the shipper goggles but they seemed more like best friends to me than any other relationship in the books.

it is so lovely to think of them giving each other the life that they deserve.

i’m firmly with you that peeta takes the burden off of katniss in terms of being responsible for her family’s survival. i’ve spoken about this before but it would be so healing for her to not have that constant weight on her shoulders, worrying where the next meal on the table is going to come from. knowing that there’s no pressure to bring in a haul from the woods, or to make good trades in the hob. their fridge is always stocked, and they can buy whatever they need when they need it.

likewise, katniss gets to give peeta all the love that he didn’t have growing up. she shows it in a million different ways, cutting his hair for him and waiting up for him at night when he wants to paint out all of his bad thoughts. even on her bad days, she never makes him feel unwanted or shut out. even if she can’t speak, she’ll find other ways to remind him that she still loves him more than anything. he doesn’t need the constant reassurances, he’s a big boy after all, but it is nice.

also sometimes i just think about the “i know this would have happened anyway” thing and short circuit because… miss katniss girl…. that is so much packed into a teeny tiny little statement. like, she knows she would’ve ended up with peeta. it feels like after everything she is finally admitting to herself, and to the reader what she’s (and we’ve) known for a long time. on the point you made about them giving each other something no one else can, she pretty much says as much when she says only peeta can give her what she needs (which is lovely in itself, too).

You reblogged that we could send you silly things, and here I am! What is your funniest headcannon for the Haymitch-Katniss-Peeta dynamic post war? Bonus points if you somehow include buttercup into the mix 😆

Not what you asked for, but what you’re getting anyways…

Okay, so this is one of my favorite Katniss anecdotes

Then when this crazy lynx started following me around the woods looking for handouts, it became his official nickname for me. I finally had to kill the lynx because he scared off game. I almost regretted it because he wasn’t bad company. But I got a decent price for his pelt.

Twelve year old Katniss had two friends until one day she had one friend and a nice pelt.

I don’t know, I’ve been entertaining myself thinking about Katniss running into another Lynx in the woods. She said ‘he wasn’t bad company’ and I love the idea of her bearing her soul and sharing her lunch with this big cat in the woods.

One day the lynx follows her all the way home. Katniss and Peeta agree to ‘not feed the stray’ but then both sneak around and feed her anyways - Katniss leaving out the entrails of her kills and Peeta sneaking scraps of dinner out with the compost.

Bonus points, because It’s the thing that finally convinces Haymitch to pen in his damn geese. He eventually appreciates that it’s presence keeps other predators away.

The big cat becomes both of their best fiends (Katniss is a little jealous of both Peeta and the cat when they begin bonding) because Katniss and Peeta are absolutely the kind of pet owners who talk to their animals like they’re human. The stories this cat could tell.

And just - Imagine being one of the kids in town and having to make a delivery to ‘the Mockingjay’ only to be greeted by the biggest cat you’ve ever seen as you enter Victors Village. It’s Haymitch’s favorite show.

This is a bit over the place but the TDLR is that Peeta isn't hijacked in the sense that he thinks Katniss is a mutt, he simply has PTSD flashbacks to his torture and from him sometimes not knowing what memories are real, but he has systems in place to help him when the time comes.

I feel like a lot of people misconstrue Peeta getting better from the hijacking. He does not get 100% better, but he still is the same person he was before, just with more scars. He wasn't even a different person. Initially, he was just scared and tormented by the images in his head. When Peeta comes back to D12, he is himself. He still suffers ptsd flashbacks, but that is not him being hijacked. That is a direct result of a traumatic event.

I understand the saying "he won't be the same" but he is still Peeta. The first thing he did when he got back was planting flowers for prim and Katniss, you can not tell me that Peeta isn't there any more.

His flashbacks don't make him hijacked. He doesn't think Katniss is a mutt he just has small relapses when triggered, just like ptsd.

Katniss prefers crunchy peanut butter and drinks orange juice with pulp.

Peeta is absolutely fucking HORRIFIED at this.

things to never say to someone who just came out

[thesweetnessofspring]

"Peeta coerced Katniss into a relationship" - He literally said that he liked her, she had no idea who he was until the Reaping, and got in with the Careers to protect her so they wouldn't have to interact much in the actual Games. In his mind, the most she would have to do is answer questions after she won about how she felt about him. Maybe say some nice things about him and wistfully say she wished they'd gotten a chance to know each other. Then go home and live her life however she could after. Even Katniss admits that Peeta made her memorable and secured her sponsors, which gave her burn cream and food. Peeta manipulated the Capitol and never even came clean to Katniss that he'd really, actually liked her for a long time until the cave--after she had risked her life to save him. Prior to that, there is an understanding between both of them that they're acting to save both of their lives. Look me in the eye and tell me that all of this was a grand plan for Peeta to lock Katniss down. Haymitch even says it--"he wanted it to be real." Like you think Peeta fantasized this is how he would first get to know Katniss? That was Plan A? That he knew the Capitol would "let" two victors win? Or, that when the audience wasn't looking, he was forcing and guilting her into being in love with him for real?

"Peeta made Katniss feel bad about not liking him back" - This traumatized sixteen-year-old amputee who just got back from hell didn't perfectly respond to thinking someone who was willing to die with him rather than live in a world without him actually wasn't sure of her feelings. The horror. Hang him for being upset and hurt! And how absolutely awful of him to apologize for being hurt and offering to be friends! Other than Katniss knowing he loved her and she wasn't sure how she cared for him, what did he do to make her feel bad? What did he do on purpose to bring out those feelings in her?

"Peeta was the Capitol's choice, not Katniss's" - Right, because I'm sure the Capitol absolutely loved the fact that the two of them outsmarted the Gamemakers and starting the rebellion with those berries--they wanted that and NOT the highly emotional, dramatic death of one of them, the reminder that humanity is evil and must be controlled. Snow just loved that so much, he thanked Seneca Crane by killing him.

"Peeta didn't know Katniss" - ok, and? That's like, literally most of the human population who don't know each other from birth? They had known each other for a year prior to Snow holding Peeta hostage. Then they had their unspecified amount of time where they "grow back together."

"They're only together because of the shared trauma of the Games" - Suzanne made it abundantly clear that these two get along really well and have a connection before the Games. Even without the bread (although that is a cornerstone of their relationship forming) the way they both silently agree to take care of Haymitch instead of call an attendant, the way they sell each other's strengths to Haymitch, the way they flirt during the Opening Ceremonies, and just about everything else points to them having a natural chemistry and interest in one another. And also, literally, what do you think make relationships stronger? Everything going perfectly, or having someone help you through a hard time, proving you can trust them to keep you safe? With this anti-shared-trauma mindset, no one in this world can love anyone else because they all have shared trauma of their oppression. Only Capitol/District matches here, people! Hayffie shippers only.

Featuring: A Case of the Honeymoons

Summary: Yep. Haymitch cursed us. I'm sure of it. He stepped on my wedding dress train and since then, Peeta and I can't catch a break. One awkward thing after another keeps happening. Is it too much to ask for a chance at one time, just ONE! uneventful time having sex with my husband? No?

Everlark through the years... with a bad case of Honeymoon-itis

Rating: E for explicit sexual content, explicit language, explicit consent, awkward sexual situations, second-hand embarrassment, fluff and smut, shameless smut, a LOT of smut. Did I mention the smut?

A/N: What can I say? I draw a lot of inspiration from prompts that people send me, and this story is the result of several. And honestly, who am I to pass up an opportunity to write happily married Everlark getting their freak on as often as possible?

The link below leads to the series, which includes a seven chapter fic, and one supplemental chapter.

Smooches! kdnfb

Because of the couple of animal themed fic ideas I'm imaging my own (shout out to the zookeeper Peeta fic idea as the image of him holding a beaver by his side is adorable)

Basically it's Peeta being a veterinarian who Katniss has to go to as Buttercup decided to eat to much random stuff around the house, and even with the expense Katniss can't stomach the idea of prims face if Buttercup died.

So I'm not too sure on the specifics apart from that but I can imagine Peeta being a bumbling idiot who tries to sort of flirt with Katniss while they talk and Kat just doesn't understand. I'd imagine it would end with Peeta either blurting if she wants to go out on a date, or someone like Johanna who is taking her dog in for a check-up just screams at her that he has the hots for her.

I saw a post about using the film director as proof for Katniss asexuality…

Guys, whatever Katniss sexually is , anyone who isn’t the book writer says is just a headcanon.

When Suzanne reveals is that the case, fine. But meanwhile it is just a fan opinion like any other.

And that OP should stop read Hunger Games illegal edition. Katniss and Gale didn’t have sex d2 or in any occasion. And we don’t know if Katniss and Peeta were still teenagers when they had their first time (what for me isn’t a problem, teens do have active sexual life, the problem is the media exploiting this).
