“No,” Effie disagrees, her chin tucked on her knees that are pulled to her center. She wraps her arms around her legs and brings her eyes to his. “You’ve felt it, haven’t you? A love so wonderful that explodes right here,” she whispers, rubbing a fist in the middle of her chest. “Like something so beautiful it aches.”
Hey, Mitchie, he hears Lila in between his ears, and when he blinks, he sees his girl half-naked in his bed, laughing and crying and reading and everything lovely people do when they’re alive.

Summary
"A good thing,” Haymitch repeated hollowly, wishing he’d choked on his vomit back in his cell. A shaking hand lifted to the screen, as if to caress the bloodied face of Effie Trinket staring back at him.
In District Thirteen, Haymitch burns. In the Capitol, Effie endures. Fate has a different plan, though it is rarely kind to star-crossed lovers.
Note: rating has gone up to E as of chapter 5!!!

Or, a Dick and Jason space road trip au featuring Japanese death poems, Shakespearean tragedies, and Abba's greatest hits.

"That poem you wrote," she said suddenly.
Jason looked up from his fries. "Hmm?"
"In the book. I liked it."
"Oh," Jason said, surprised. "You mean the one about the intergalactic highway?"
Cass smiled. "Yes," she said. "The one about love."
Jason laughed, and the sound tasted unexpected on his tongue. It had Cass smiling wider. He shook his head. "I really missed you, you know?"

Summary
After becoming District 12's escort at the age of twenty-two, Effie Trinket is forced to work alongside Haymitch Abernathy, the embittered sole survivor of the Second Quarter Quell. Both fractured by hidden traumas, their resentment of each other becomes complicated by their mutual longing for human connection.
Canon: The later plot is generally canon-compliant (the Katniss & Peeta arc); however, there is a massive vacuum when it comes to Effie's backstory in canon, and thus I fill in the blanks with my own imagination. I also diverge from Suzanne Collins' claim that Effie & Haymitch were only co-workers - their eventual romantic relationship will be the driving force of this story.
Content: Most pivotal to this story is the theme of trauma. One significant plot point is Effie's backstory as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. This will never be shown graphically - however, allusions will be made to the nature of her abuse & how it continually affects her as an adult. There will be canon-typical violence, substance abuse, disordered eating, self harm, & wartime atrocities. There will also be sexually explicit content.
I also post about this fic on my Tumblr (incubationformadness).

She looks at him, her eyes the same colour as the plants, like she's blue on the inside of her body, a garden growing inside her skull.

Summary
April 27th isn't anyone's favourite date, but it's somehow worse than usual today when Bruce gets his car stolen.
It's nice of Red Hood to come to his rescue.
Even nicer that Jason keeps him company afterwards.

It’s like the boy and his sister and his friend, like the distribution chain working to get a Hyundai to where she needs to be; it’s struggling people struggling to help someone struggle less.
