Hi!!! Do you have any pre-reaping fic recs? Preferably canon compliant!
Btw ty for your work on this blog!!!
Hello!
Sorry for the longer wait! Hopefully, these are new fics to you and fit the vibe you were going for! I tried to find Pre-THG works that would have still led to the canon events but they may not exactly fit
He wouldn't do anything-Deb1989 (ao3) Summary: The men of the Mellark family had a cruel fate, at least he and his father: infatuated with women of the Everdeen family. Home sweet… home?-0liveleaf2 (ao3) Summary: My brothers’ curious eyes meet mine before hastily glancing elsewhere. Sometimes, I wish they would intervene, but I can’t blame them, I never intervene either. But this time felt different, as my mother’s fist collides with my eye, an unfamiliar lump forms in my throat and tears prick my eyes. Karaoke-aimmyarrowshigh (ao3) Summary: Karaoke. Three times Peeta heard Katniss sing. Leisure-aimmyarrowshigh (ao3) Summary: Leisure. The whole District gets the day off after the Reaping. Replacements-aimmyarrowshigh (ao3) Summary: Replacements. Katniss and Gale risk being whipped when they exchange goods, but they need to provide for their siblings. Stitches-Theluminousfisheffect (ao3) Summary: Peeta wakes up in the family bakery, surrounded by his brothers with a splitting headache and no idea how it happened. Some Mellark brotherly love. Strike-aimmyarrowshigh (ao3) Summary: Strike. "Those men got what was coming to them," sniffed Peeta's mother. "Lazy Seam bums, refusing to work."
Happy reading!
