Chapter 16
Apparently Jade is Scorpia’s sister. They start preparing a Feast. I look around, it's crazy. We get different clothes too.
I walk with Kit. Around us Bone reavers are Dancing.
J: That’s different. No stupid gowns. We can be us.
She smiles and grabs my Hand. We go and Stand by a Tree. when Boorman steps next to us.
B: You were ok with me getting Killed ?
J: Oh, please. The look on her face told me she wouldn’t Kill you. Maybe hurt you but kill you ? Nah. You have some sort of backstory.
B: I told you, everything would be all right. I have a plan.
S: Slaves of Galladoorn, conscripts of Nockmaar, outlaws of the Wildwood.
They start Cheering.
S: All we have ever wanted is our Freedom. That our Children would not live in Fear. They’d serve no master, Daikini or Troll or Crone. We have no Barrier to hide behind, no Army to defend us. All we have is the fear that our masks evoke, the determination to survive and Each other.
She grabs Jade's hand. I smile.
S: Today after Two hundred Moons, my sister has come Home.
They cheer for her.
S: She grew up in Tir Asleen, was fed lies about us and about herself.
Ok that makes me kinda sad
S: But tonight she is reborn bathed in the Love of her Family and the Values that we still fight for. Freedom, rebellion, passion, and Joy. To the break of Dawn !
They cheer. Then they give around Bowls with something inside. I look at Scorpia who nods.
K: What is it ?
B: I don’t know. Delicious-looking Fruit. Live a little.
He eats his and walks off. I look at Kit shrug and we both eat ours. It really tastes Weird.
J: That’s interesting.
We both laugh. The bone reavers start dancing. I start a drinking battle with one of the Bone reavers and when he falls off his Chair I win. The others cheer and Kit hugs me from behind. When I see Graydon without a beard I start Laughing.
J: Hey Baby face looking good.
He looks away Embarrassed. Me and Kit start dancing. My hand on her Waist, hers around my Neck. I see Jade on the side and pull Kit with me to her.
J: Hey.
K: How you feeling ?
Ja: Weird, but good. What about you ?
J: Also, weird.
Ja: That's Truth plums for you, I guess.
K: Those are what Plums ?
Ja: The truth plums.
J: Those fruits that were given to us ?
Ja: Once you eat them, it’s Impossible to be anything but totally honest.
K: Oh, right. We didn’t know that.
J: Guess now we do.
We nod.
K: So now you’re a …
Ja: Yeah. I guess. Still can’t quite believe it.
We chuckle.
Ja: Why did Sorsha lie to me ?
K: Maybe she thought she was protecting you.
Ja: Did you know ?
J,K: No.
K: But I suspected.
Ja: And you didn’t tell me.
J: Or me ?
K: Well, what was I supposed to say ? That I have a funny feeling that you might, in fact, be the very thing you vowed to destroy ? At best you would’ve thought I was Crazy and at worst it would’ve broken your heart.
Ja: Well, you’re certainly the expert on breaking hearts.
She walks off.
K: Jade, wait.
J: Why didn’t you tell me ?
K: You would have sentenced me Mad.
J: You’re right. I’ll be right back ok ?
She nods.
K: I need to think anyway.
J: Come to me when you’re finished Ok ?
She nods. I give her a kiss and walk after Jade.
J: Jade.
Ja: Don’t ..
J: I won’t protect her about that. She hurt your feelings.
Ja: Did you think that too ?
J: No. I knew you were Different yes. But … That no. I’m happy for you.
She hugs me.
J: She’ll apologise.
Ja: Hopefully not now.
J: Nah. She lets you be angry for a time. She’ll come around.
She nods.
J: Wanna be alone ?
Ja: Yep.
I nod and go sit down. Someone sits down next to me. Toth.
J: Hi.
He hands me a beer.
T: You’re a feisty one.
I chuckle and take a sip.
J: Nah I’m just protecting what's mine.
T: ‘S the princess your Wife ?
J: Not yet.
T: What are you waiting for ? She’s already Pregnant.
J: I dunno. The Right moment. ‘S not like we have many options out here.
T: You are here. And we throw mad Parties.
I look at him.
J: You would …
S: We have a Officiant.
I flinch and look at Scorpia.
J: Uh … I would in a Second but not Today. Todays about Jade.
She smiles.
S: You’re good friends.
J: It’s also not up to me.
I take a look around for Kit. Who is currently talking to Jade. I smile.
T: What are you waiting for ?
S: Ask her. The worst thing she can do is say No. But considering how you look at each other.
I look in my Cup. Drain the rest and get up.
J: Ok I can do that.
I start walking then turn around.
J: Nope.
Toth puts a hand on my shoulder.
T: Do it Kiddo or I will carry you to her.
I start walking again. Kit and Jade look at me.
J: Hi. You good again ?
Jade nods.
J: Good.
I turn to Kit.
J: Can we talk ?
She nods.
J: Alone.
Jade gets the message and leaves.
K: Is something wrong ?
J: No. God no. Uh … wow that is harder than I thought …
K: Jane ?
She lays a hand on my shoulder.
J: Will you Marry me ?
She looks at me confused.
K: Uh … you already asked me that ?
J: I mean tomorrow ? Like officially. Here.
She raises her eyebrows.
J: It’s Ok if you say No. I mean we’re in a Hurry and it’s not the best Timing and …
She kisses me. Then she leans her forehead against mine.
K: Yes.
I look at her.
J: Really ?
K: Yes Really.
I kiss her again. After a few hours. In which we danced, ate and had fun. The first retreat to their tents. Kit Yawns.
B: Tired already ?
She nods.
S: I’ll show you your Tent.
We stand up and follow her.
S: This one’s yours. Sleep well.
J: You too.

Compliment a Fanfiction Writer
For all the authors and kind readers out there
I was recently inspired by a post that @everybirdfellsilent reblogged recently. Here’s the link. But to sum up the post, its a call out to people in the fandom who simply consume content and never provide encouraging feedback to writers, other than to spam their inbox to ask when the next update is, when the sequel is coming out, and to constantly ask for more, more, more, content without acknowledging the time and effort that goes into creating stories, art, and other media.
So I’d like to get into the habit of promoting a positive and encouraging atmosphere within the community, by proactively starting a new thing where any writer or reader can send some good vibes and encouragement to the content creators in the fandom.
But I would like to emphasize that these inbox asks should be complimentary, should not include requests for more stories, or updates, and should be focused on simply giving back to creators in the spirit of acknowledging their hard work.
So this week, pick a writer, or several. Pick your favorite story that they have written. List multiple reasons why that story is your favorite. Send this list to them, and thank them for all their hard work.
You never know, all this positively could be really good for your fave writers, and might even encourage them to write even more!
I’d like to kick off this thing by tagging a few people to get the ball rolling.
@dandelionlovesyou, @pitualba2015, @broken-everlark, @endlessnightlock, @peeta-pocket, @pookieh, @lovely-tothe-bone, @andretries, @am2c, @sommmee, @shewakesupwiththesun, @oakfarmer, @mega-aulover, @sausage-sizzle-grace,

Saying Yes - Part 6 - SSS
Hello everyone!
This iittle snippet from Part 6 of my long neglected fic Saying Yes, is especially for @little-lynx and @lovely-tothe-bone.
Thank you ladies, for your encouragement and enthusiasm.

“How did you end up with a girl like Glimmer, anyway?” Katniss asked, her curiosity getting the better of her. The Peeta she knew back in high school would never have dated someone like Glimmer. But it was too late to take it back,so she avoided looking at him, distracting herself by blowing into her first pumpkin spice latte of the season.
“When I wasn’t in class, I was working every hour I could. I was lucky, I found a job that was a perfect fit for me at a bakery downtown. Buddy’s Bakery is famous for it’s elaborate customised cakes. You might have heard of it?”
Katniss nodded, “yeah, I’ve seen that place on TV. It’s amazing. Prim visited one time, she still talks about their cannolis.”
Peeta smiled. “It truly is amazing. They hired me as a cake decorator and for a while it was the perfect balance of baking and art. It was a fun place to work.”
“One day Glimmer came into the store to commission a cake for a charity event she was throwing at her sorority house on Halloween. The boss was impressed by the work I’d done on some of the wedding cake orders, so he asked me to sit in on the consultation. I ended up designing the whole thing, this huge hollow carriage slash pumpkin cake-”
“Hollow? Why hollow?”
Peeta chuckled. “Glimmer likes to make an impression. Her idea was to make a grand entrance to the event in this carriage and then have it turn into a pumpkin at midnight. I spent weeks working with her on all the elements of the design, and then delivered the cake to the event. That night, she asked me to stay for the party. So that’s basically how we met.”
“Wow,” Katniss remarked taking a sip of her latte. “It must be nice to live like a real life Disney Princess.”

Meow, Katniss.
