TRICK OR TREAT!! 🍬🦇👻

sooooo i finally got started on the treemina/haysilee/clato oneshot, here's the treech pov part:

one day you'll understand why (everything you touch surely dies)

Three different Games, three boys. Separated across generations, they each stare in dismay at a dying peer (or an ally, a partner, a friend, something more, something less, nothing really, but also somehow everything) with racing hearts beating in denial and rage, frantic thoughts of it's not supposed to be like this running through their minds.

The story ends the same every time.

-

Treech catches fleeting glimpses of Lamina's frizzed unkempt halo of fiery red hair, like a starburst dancing in the corner of his eye, and can't help but think of blood.

He has never seen it in person, at least not on a regular basis, and not in copious amounts. Working weekend shifts at the warehouse, packing and sorting boxes of paper for shipment to the Capitol, put him only at risk of paper cuts, and he's never even had a scraped knee. The Dark Days are so far back in his memory they are almost a fairy tale, and he never even saw a dead body. Blood might not be a familiar sight to him, but he would imagine that he is about to see enough of it in the next few days to last him a lifetime.

A lifetime - he no longer has the luxury of assuming he has any such thing.

Not one to indulge morbid, despairing thoughts, he instead returns his focus to sneaking furtive side glances at the girl seated next to him on the rock. A complete stranger, but she's the only one he's familiar with, the last piece of home Treech has left, and honestly, she's actually quite captivating - in a morose, pitiful way.

Her breaths are noisy and ragged, thick with congestion from her sobbing. Tear tracks flow in rivers down her cheeks, creating smooth lines of pale skin, the water carving little paths of cleanliness that cut through the dirt scattered on her face. Lamina reminds him of a broken bird, and that's not a kind or fair thought to have, but it is the first comparison that comes to mind when he sees her, with her tangled hair and gaunt cheeks and shaking fists.

It isn't as if he judges her to be weak - Treech himself is terrified out of his mind, his fear gathering in his chest in a cloud of smoke and constricting his lungs with a vise grip until inhaling and exhaling becomes a laborious task. He can feel his own heart fighting to stay alive, beating rapidly like a wild animal being hunted. It takes every last remaining semblance of restraint he still has to not reach through the bars of this cage and strangle a Capitolite who got too close, act exactly like the beast they clearly saw him as.

However, isn't it better to at least pretend? To face reality with unflinching stoicism, formulate a logical plan to get back to his family, rather than only fixate on his impending doom?

From Lamina's tremulous sniffles, it is apparent she disagrees. He wonders, out of curiosity, how long she'll last in the Games - the Arena doesn't seem like a place where the weeping Tributes come out winners.

On his eighth side-glance, which he mistakenly believed to be sufficiently well-timed enough to be inconspicuous, she finally faces him, meeting his eyes with her own. He's surprised to find that they are a stunning brown, like the soft foamy soil underneath his feet, or the bark of a healthy young tree. Her gaze sears into him, youthful and innocent and inquisitive, reminiscent of a deer who is aware that it is about to become some predator's meal.

He could tear his eyes away, make the wise decision to ignore her for the rest of their extremely limited and most likely unpleasant time together. Nonetheless, his body inexplicably refuses to force himself away from her.

She looks back, unashamed, and her mouth parts hesitantly, words just cresting over the tip of her tongue and begging to be released, before she seals her lips together and thinks better of it. Treech could ask her what she wanted to say, but he doubts it matters at this point.

He could also indulge the impulse he has to run his thumb along the smudges of thick dust collecting on her face, wipe away this girl's tears and put her back together into something recognizable as joyful and healed, bring her a peace he can't find for himself.

Treech does no such thing.

They stare at one another for the last time as he prepares to abandon her for a larger alliance (his heart and brain and body scream conflicting arguments at him, but he's more inclined to follow whichever act allows him to leave this Arena alive - in summary, brain wins this one even if his heart hurts more than ever before, spasming painfully against his ribs).

He reasons with himself that it is better this way, if only so he can spare himself the fate of going mad with guilt. Because if he allows himself to stay with this strange girl, he'll come dangerously close to caring, and no one won the Games by actually giving a damn about their District partner. Already, she exerts some sort of gravitational pull on him, and he has known her for... a week? If that. Lamina has an uncanny ability to make him want to be closer to her, to know her even just a little more than he does now before he dies, and that simply would not do. These fickle thoughts and wants had no place in the Arena.

She looks visibly wounded, stricken by his betrayal, and he suddenly hates himself for that, but survival has far more appeal, even if it tastes like ashes and regret.

THG Trick or Treat 2024 👻

It's time to get out your candy bags, put on a costume, and get to dropping asks!

How it works: There are THG/TBOSAS bloggers who have put on their porch lights to let the fandom know they are ready to give out treats to those who come into their ask box!

For the trick or treaters: You can leave anything in the ask box. This can be a simple "trick or treat," a seasonal description, or a prompt or request. Please note that any prompt or request is optional for the responder to fulfill.

For the treat-givers: It's completely up to you what you give the trick or treater! It can be a seasonal photo, a joke, a song, a line from a WIP, a doodle, a recipe, a headcanon, a fic rec, a moodboard, a drabble or anything else you want to give.

Blogs who are taking trick or treaters are under the cut below (if you would like to be added or I missed you, please drop a reply and I will add you to the list).
