THE HUNGER GAMES MEME



Congratulations, Tribute.

You have been selected to participate in the Hunger Games.

The rules are simple: there can only be one victor.
You have to kill everyone else or die. 

The last one standing wins.
May the odds be in your favour.

⚔

OPTIONS FOR THE SCENARIO-MINDED:

1. ENEMIES: in for the kill
The truth is you've been plotting each other's death for a long time. The only thing different about this situation is that everyone else actually wants you to off each other. Who cares if both of you are probably going to die anyway: no one is taking this bastard down except you.

2. ROMANCE: lovers in a dangerous time 
What do lovers do when they know they're about to die? Last kiss, last words, last fuck? Maybe you're desperately trying to protect each other from the rest. Maybe you're the last two left alive. What sacrifices are you willing to make? How far will you allow each other to go?

3. ALLIES: set your arms down
It's in both of your best interests to stick together. Two together is more deadly than one, and you can pool supplies and weapons. Of course, this arrangement is most definitely temporary. Maybe it'll fall apart tonight, or tomorrow, or next week. Maybe your alliance has already run its course, and it's about to fall apart...right now.

4. TORTURE: death's not the worst
Sure, the point is to kill them. But why leave it at that? Maybe you've always secretly gotten off on this sort of thing, or maybe you've just cracked under the stress. When everyone is going to die, there's no point in sticking to all those rules society laid down for you any more. You've already incapacitated them; there's no way they can fight back. Might as well have some fun, right?

5. VICTORY: the finish line
You've done it. Last one standing. You've chosen to live, and no one but you knows how much that choice cost you, because they're all dead. At this point there's nothing that will stop you from stepping up to claim victory. You killed every other tribute. Or did you?

6. OTHER: write your own story
Anything and everything you can think of. In the arena, there are no rules.

⚔

Let the Games begin.

omg FUCK ROLLING. I got 2 twice and then a 1. WE'RE GOING FOR THREE.

[killarevolution]

[So this is a fucked up AU of Catching Fire where Haymitch got to go hang out with the cool kids and hate his life. And IDK, Finnick and Haymitch are out being the Keepers of The Spile like Canadians, only instead of maple syrup, they're harvesting water.]

No matter how different they make these things every year, it doesn't change a bit.

8( but haymitch/finnick is my otp..... LMFAO

[65]

[So much fun. He's holding the basket he delicately weaved with his magic fingers and letting the tree-water fall in.]

You don't have to participate in them to know that.

Panem hates gay people, okay?

[killarevolution]

But it helps. [S-so sardonic. He glances over his shoulder in the direction of camp and scoffs.] Still think it should've been the boy in here, not me.

[65]

If they're such star-crossed lovers, why didn't he volunteer? [He looks up and gives Haymitch a momentary stare.]

[killarevolution]

Oh, he tried, but then he got something caught in his throat and couldn't get the words out. [Spoiler: It was probably Haymitch's fist, because God forbid, he let Princess Katniss not have her way.]

[65]

How devastating. [Since Mags volunteered in place of Annie, there's something ... commendable about it??? Old people are so sweet. :') On that note, he can relate to Princess Katniss's hard life.] But then, it's probably better that way.

[killarevolution]

[He twists the spile out of the tree.] Katniss can keep her head on straight if he's safe. That's what matters. [That may sound casual and not at all reeking of conspiracychans, but it totally is. The Capitol has no idea and Haymitch enjoys... Being a two-faced bastard.] But I'm more use to her from where Peeta's sitting.

[65]

I think it's terribly romantic, the self-sacrificial-ness of it all. If Katniss comes out on top, she can go back into the arms of her husband-to-be.

[killarevolution]

[You are so gay right now, Finnick. He scoffs and straightens up, rolling his eyes.] I'm surrounded by romantic fools.

[65]

[Silly Haymitch. Finnick is always so gay. He's a ~romantic~.] You're the one who helped foster their budding romance. [He takes a sip of the tree-water out of the basket to make sure it's ... idk not poison or something.]

[killarevolution]

Guess that makes me the biggest romantic fool of all. [He throws a hand up in the air like he just don't care and starts walking back to the camp. Bring the water, Ariel.]

[65]

[Don't worry, he has the water. It's all good.] If that doesn't grab the hearts of all of Panem [ie rake in the sponsors], I don't know what will.

[killarevolution]

Not all of us still have our looks. [Meaning WHY DON'T YOU TAKE YOUR SHIRT OFF OR SOMETHING. Jesus, Finnick. They'd probably get a mansion in Beverly Hills for that.]

[65]

I don't know what I'd do without mine. [CHEESY SEXY GRIN. Just watch the cameras eat that up.]

[killarevolution]

Oh, I'm sure you'd survive just as well as the rest of us. [Spoiler: Mediocre at best. He hopes this fucking banter is what Peeta needs to get them something good from the sponsors. ...And he hopes they're not the same sponsors he's traumatized over the years. That would suck.]

[65]

[It's okay, they've still got Finnick's sponsors. The ones who ... rented him for sex against his will repeatedly. .o. They're sure to come through!] We'd still have a better chance than most. What with the girl on fire on our side and all.

[killarevolution]

[IT'S OKAY. THEY HAVE THE SUPPORT OF FINNICK'S RAPISTS.

IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.]

Who's still very pregnant, but she's got the support of strong men and two of the brightest minds of District 3, so the odds are ever in her favor. [Dripping with sarcasm there, Haymitch. SOMEONE NEEDS AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE.

...And to not accidentally call Johanna a dude.]

[65]

[Y E P.]

I hope Johanna's not within hearing range; she'll be absolutely rabid.

[killarevolution]

Wouldn't make much of a change.

[BOOOONG.

...By the way... That's a clock sound. In case you're wondering.]

[65]

[OH SHIT. He looks to the sky like he expects ... idk more acid rain or evil mockingjays or generally horrible things.]

[killarevolution]

[And because I like making you work and I'm a terrible person, and you don't get to RP Finnick's Annie-boner very often, IT'S TIME FOR HOT JABBERJAY ACTION. Haymitch is immune, because like Johanna, the Capitol fucking killed everyone he loved. And logic dictates that Katniss and Peeta are fine. So basically, you be boned, Finnick.]

Finnick... [Yes, this is Haymitch's warning tone. DO NOT GET YO' CRAZY ALL OVER HIM.]

[65]

[Wow Haymitch you seem to have vastly overestimated Finnick's mental stability. When the jabberyjays start doing their Annie screams, he drops the basket full of tree-water, drops to his knees, and covers his ears with his palms as tightly as he can, fingers digging into the sides of his head. HE IS THE BEST MOST USEFUL TEAMMATE EVER.]

[killarevolution]

[GOD, WHY ARE YOU SUCH A WUSS, FINNICK. Well, Haymitch has no qualms grabbing you by the scruff of your neck... Or the back of your shirt- whatever, close enough- like an angry mama lion and DRAGGING YOUR ASS AWAY FROM THE DEVIL-BIRDS.] Keep moving.

[65]

[OMG HE JUST HAS A LOT OF FEELINGS IN HIS HEART, OKAY. Haymitch seems to have snapped him out of his momentary psychosis and got him to ... stagger along with being dragged. He knows it's just the fucking jabberjays, but it still sounds like his beautiful precious Annie. Every time one starts up, he looks like he wants to cry, throw up, or both.] I am.

[killarevolution]

[Drag. Drag. Drag through the jungle. Jabberjays are freeeaks. Hatefully, hatefully, hatefully- the hunger games stiiiink. /musical interlude.] It's not her. She's with Peeta and the other mentors. Ought to be worried about Peeta deciding she's a better catch than Katniss.
