    Summary

    What if the boy with the bread spoke to Katniss before the 74th Hunger Games. And what if only one of them ended up reaped.

    In an alternate District 12, a sudden schedule change forces a starving Katniss into an advanced art class she has no hope of passing. Her unlikely lifeline? Peeta Mellark. They strike a reluctant deal: he will teach her how to shade with charcoal, and she will teach him the business math he needs to inherit the bakery.

    But a simple tutoring arrangement turns into a treasonous alliance when Peeta asks Katniss for a highly illegal favor to save a desperate classmate. Bound by shared secrets and dangerous black-market runs, the rigid walls between the Seam and the Town begin to blur. As the 74th Hunger Games loom on the horizon, Katniss finds herself caught in a tangled web: navigating Gale's growing jealousy, surviving Capitol scrutiny, and fighting her terrifying, undeniable affection for the baker's son. A story of what could have been if two star-crossed tributes had the chance to fall in love before the reaping.

    Summary

    "I'm sorry," I tell him, barely getting the words out. I'm sorry because I did this to him. Because I would do anything to change this. "You'll come back," I verify against his chest, my voice fragile. "Promise me you'll come back," I demand. Peeta stares at me for a second, the hopelessness still tattooed across his features. "I'll try," he says. Catching Fire AU

    Summary

    After being dumped by her fiancé two weeks before her wedding, Katniss Everdeen went into rebounding mode with a very handsome Detective for what she thought would be a one night stand. Little did she knew that that strangers was no one but his ailing father’s protégé, and that she will quickly develop deep and intense feelings for this man, who had a very complicated past and a lot of baggage, and that would change their lives forever.

    Summary

    It's been almost 6 months since the end of the war. Katniss and Peeta have managed to regain the friendship they'd thought they lost, but Katniss is unsure if Peeta is ready to face his old feelings and pursue something more between them. Katniss herself worries that she may not be mentally prepared for what a relationship might entail. The problem is, that hunger she felt for him on the beach in the Quell won't relent, and it only grows stronger when they resume their previous sleeping arrangements.

    In an attempt to stave off the hunger she feels for Peeta without putting pressure on him to label what exactly he feels for her, she suggests a simple proposition—that they become friends with benefits.

    But friends with benefits is never as simple as it sounds, especially not with a history like theirs.

    Summary

    When the world fractures around her, Katniss Everdeen is torn from the life she fought to rebuild, the family she protected, the friends who steadied her, and the boy she was finally learning to love. Taken by the Capitol, she becomes a prisoner in Snow’s hands, enduring his cruelty as he tries to break the very spark that once defied him.

    Back in the ruins of District 13, Peeta Mellark refuses to accept a world where Katniss is lost to the Capitol. As the rebellion rises, he clings to the hope that she’s still fighting, still surviving, still waiting for a chance to come home.

    A sequel to The Mockingjay Isn’t Singing. Mockingjay AU where Katniss is the captive one, and Peeta is the one forced to fight without her. Where love becomes the rebellion’s quiet but unshakable anchor.

    Summary

    Peeta Mellark has been rescued from the Capitol, but he's not the same boy with the bread Katniss once knew. His hijacked mind has opened his eyes to the real Katniss Everdeen. She's selfish, surly, and indifferent towards him. And he hates her for it.

    Late one night, he gets a visitor in his hospital room in District Thirteen. Someone who tells him they can give him something impossible: A second chance. He has nothing in this timeline. No family, no friends, not even memories he can trust. So he accepts.

    Peeta finds himself in District Twelve on Reaping Day of the Seventy-Fourth Hunger Games. This time, He vows to do it differently. This time, there will only be one Victor, and it won't be Katniss Everdeen.

    As he struggles to survive the 74th Games for the second time, he finds that some things can be fixed, but some things are just inevitable. As if no matter what he does to change it, this would've happened anyway.

    Summary

    Katniss would’ve never thought that she might make money out of her voice, the idea of anyone in Twelve paying for something as unnecessary as a song seems ridiculous but as it turns out, music is something everyone needs a little of.

    With her dad’s old guitar, a few dusty dresses that apparently belonged to some of his cousins and aunts and the songs seared into her memory, Katniss starts unknowingly stepping into the shoes of long forgotten performers and singers whilst also constantly running into her Boy with the Bread making cake deliveries and awakening something in her.

    Her discovery of her Covey heritage also gets her involved with the Revolution, becoming a voice for the people of all Districts… and the ghosts Snow thought long buried.

    Katniss accidentally becomes a Covey Girl (and we know Covey Girls love harder than anyone else) and the Mockingjay (songbird edition)

    Summary

    My stomach growled eventually. I looked around to find a bush of berries. I picked a few and then sat down to eat them. As I looked at them, I remembered the berries that had saved Peeta and I. I remembered the way we had fully committed to death. We'd spit them out in time. Foxface hadn't. My stomach turned. I threw the berries away. I didn't want them anymore. I shoved the images of the dead tributes out of my head.
    -----
    After the first Games, Katniss has some difficult trauma-induced mental health issues that she needs to work through. What would happen if she would've been a little more open and honest with Peeta? And herself, about if there was something real there?

    My take on a more realistic Catching Fire. Starts just after the first Games. Continues through the end of Mockingjay. Some changes to plot as well.

    Summary

    For Prompts in Panem farewell tour Day 2: What if? What if Peeta and Prim hadn't been reaped? Inspired by the canon line ‘this would have happened anyway’.

    (Contains lines directly lifted from, and paraphrased from, The Hunger Games trilogy, as well as scenes from the books reenvisioned. 'cause that's kind of what fanfiction is. Thanks Susanne Collins.)

    Trigger warning: child abuse, canon-typical violence. Rated M.

    Summary

    As the districts struggle to rekindle a flame once thought extinguished two years ago, Peeta Mellark fights to survive—not only the Capitol, but the fragile crown of victory.
    When rebellion ignites at last, Peeta and the other victors will be forced to stand at the edge of a war meant to free the districts from their chains. In the chaos, the young baker will uncover truths long buried—secrets sharp enough to shatter the world he thought he knew. And he will come to understand that nothing was ever as it seemed.
    Meanwhile, a question lingers in the haze and silence:
    What happened to Katniss?

    Summary

    Katniss has been confined to District 12 after the war, and is more depressed than ever. When she finds out that she has a chance to go back in time and fix the things that have broken her heart, she has to take it. She has one shot to get it right. Will she change history forever?

    Hello to everyone who has read this story or is just discovering it. I tried to stay true to canon but also explore something entirely different. I hope you enjoy this alternate version of THG! Happy reading!

    To celebrate the first anniversary of Take Me Back to the Start, I'll be releasing a companion story, From the Start, as part of The Start Collection. It'll follow Peeta's perspective through the moments Katniss never saw.

    I can't wait to share it with you. ❤️

    Summary

    Just as Effie Trinket’s hand reached for the slips, a slight gust of wind stirred the air, and a spirit tinkled a wind chime—its ringing whispering a different fate into the breeze.

    In District 12, the Games never came for Katniss Everdeen.
    As the Capitol tightens its grip and rebellion begins to stir, Katniss is left to reckon with who she is, what she believes in—and whether love is something she can afford in a world where survival is never promised.

    (AU — Never Reaped. This would have happened anyway.)

    Summary

    If the star crossed lovers from district 12 never went into the games, if they were never pitted against each other, doomed to fight and kill each other, if their stars weren’t crossed at all, what would have happened anyway?

    Keeping Katniss's family fed without tesserae is not easy and Peeta's parents are pushing him to marry a merchant girl as soon as possible. The best way to escape starvation and a prison of a marriage is to marry each other, but that would require Katniss to let go of a promise she made to herself a long time ago, to never marry anyone.
