#im feeling self indulgent today

[maidstew]

as a self-indulgent little treat i am thinking about persephone price meeting finnick odair (inspired by chats with @diiwata)

→ by some stroke of luck, festus creed hasn’t mysteriously died like many of their former classmates. he continues to work closely with coriolanus and as a result, persephone is expected at capitol social events.

→ this includes events related to the hunger games even though the thought makes her slightly ill. especially when there’s a victor for district 4. this year is worse than usual because the victor is a 14 year old boy.

→ persephone watches finnick charm the capitol citizens of his victor party. he’s nothing like mizzen- in looks or personality- but it’s still all she can think about.

→ by another stroke of (bad) luck, he comes to sit in the tucked away area she’s in to get away for a moment.

→ she makes polite conversation and asks him about district 4. it sounds different from the way mizzen described it, too much capitol propaganda. she wonders how mizzen would feel about district 4 now. she wonders if finnick ever collected sea shells like mizzen did.

→ she almost brings mizzen up- but fears someone important overhearing. president snow gets deeply upset at the mention of the 10th hunger games. livia cardew-snow has the bruises to prove it.

→ finnick is the one who brings him up in the end. mentioning that his mentor, mags, had a younger brother that didn’t survive the games and how he was glad he won because his death would have hurt her. he doesn’t know not to bring up things like that. he doesn’t know persephone is the reason mizzen is dead.

→ persephone shifts uncomfortably, she typically avoids mags at all costs. mags has never been hostile towards her, but there’s always a hint of accusation in her eyes when she looks at persephone. persephone knows she deserves it.

→ persephone is glad that mags could save finnick in the way that she couldn’t save mizzen. she finds herself wanting to do more, wanting to actually do something to stop the hunger games. she did nothing when mizzen died or when any other tributes died throughout the years. it just keeps going and she just keeps watching.

→ finnick is eventually stolen away by a woman persephone vaguely recognizes as a stylist. she doesn’t directly speak with him again until right after the 74th hunger games.

Hello! Random whipper snipper! Share a WIP of your work!

ooh, with pleasure. six the musical araleyn fanart? in the year 2k24? more likely than you think xDD

i realize this looks finished, but technically i'm still deciding whether to add a background or not lol. still, for the sake of sharing a proper WIP, here's a line or two from an araleyn brainworm WIP that i started reworking yesterday (mild tw for religious guilt and period-typical internalized homophobia from aragon's pov):

She remembers sharing her bed with Anne at Henry's behest, remembers the nights of tossing and turning and trying not to think about Anne asleep next to her-- remembers waking up to dark hair spilling across her pillow and the press of blood-warm bosoms against her own, softer than sin, as hot as the Devil, remembers lying still as death, mouthing prayers into the heat of Anne's neck like an act of penance.
