/ (...Yay! Slash Fanfic Recs.)

I thought I'd post some Hunger Games slash recs; it seemed topical since in my film class we started talking about the oddity that is slash fan fiction (the oddity being that it's generally written by girls. Fangirls.) So, yes, Yaoi goodness in the form of Hunger Games characters. Like femmeslash, it's not too big in THG compared to het pairings, but considering fanfiction's track record with fandoms like Harry Potter, I expect as the fandom grows slash will have more of a readership (and writer-ship?). I have to say, I was really was actually surprised how hard it was to find good slash fics; you can't just google "hunger games slash" or even stuff like "Haymitch/Chaff" and expect heaps of results to come up.

Here's a few that I liked not only for these author's takes on these pairings, but for the fact that they are well written.

Blinding Desire by Sunset Songbird

Ship: Gale/Peeta

Summary: Peeta never expected to see Gale on the Victory Tour. He especially didn't plan on sharing a room with him. The real quesion is, can they get along, or will they end up killing each other?

Obsession by Princess Alyra

Ship: Peeta/Cinna

Summary: He still loves her, but he loves Cinna more. And that isn't going to change.

*I've recc'd this previously, but I think it deserves to be in this post too.

15 Pairings (Drabbles 007 and 011.) by aimmyarrowshigh

Ships: Haymitch/Brutus and Haymitch/Chaff

Summary: None given.

you let your grace enrapture by eudaimon

Ship: Cinna/Finnick

Summary: Before he was a stylist, Cinna met a victor at a party. The rest isn't quite history.

Two Shots Too Many by Mithrigil

Ship: Haymitch/Chaff

Summary: “Tell you what,” Haymitch groans, more because it’s annoying than because Chaff is taking too damn long to get Haymitch’s pants open with one hand. “Next one to mention the Games doesn’t get off.”

I'm probably missing some major everyone-reads-this-fic because I don't read any slash (I'm more of a femmeslash reader), so if you're like o_O why haven't you listed such-and-such?! leave the fic's name and/or link in a comment :)

Weekly Fan's Fic Rec: The Final Defense of The Dying (Peeta-centric)

Good morning all of our terrific fellow tributes! Here's this week's Weekly Fan's Fic Rec, which comes from a quaint person who titled themselves Anonymous.

Title: The Final Defense of the Dying
Author: Silver Tongued Wonder
Summary: Peeta Mellark's thoughts on pain, loss, and life. Oh, and frosting, too. 
Why Anonymous loved this fic: "It's a really great portrayal of Peeta. I love him, and I love this fic!"

PS. In the spirit of Peeta love, I would just like to add how impressed I am with Josh Hutcherson and his Peeta-smexiness. Fanfiction should be written about those muscles!

Little Miss Mionie's Recs: Rare Pairings!!

Hai guyz. Sooo....I was thinking, "What type of rec should I post before I go back to university and get swamped by school work and socialising for the next two weeks or so? What type of rec will be memorable?"

And then it clicked.

Rare pairings! Yes, LMM, that's a great idea! I thought it would be a fun idea since I'm such a canon-whore. So, I googled a bunch of pairings (ships) that I thought were pretty out-of-the-blue, blatantly wishful thinking, a little creepy, or pretty much unheard of. Here's a few of the great fanfics I found....

(Please note that the content of some of these fics is mature.)

To The Victor, The Spoil by annakovsky

Pairing: Katniss/Haymitch

No berries, no mockingjay, no rebellion. Katniss killed Peeta in the arena, and now she has to live with herself like every other victor.

Obsession by Princess Alyra

Pairing: Cinna/Peeta

He still loves her, but he loves Cinna more. And that isn't going to change.

Sweet Surrender by Janine

Pairing: Katniss/Johanna

Sometimes one can find comfort and companionship in the strangest of places with the most unlikely of people.

snow white by koalakoala

Pairing: Prim/Peeta

AU. "You look like her, you know," he says dismissively. She sighs, because she wishes she did. For the Starvation forum's monthly oneshot challenge, home.

Have fun sailing these unusual (yet awesome) ships!!

PS. I would like to finally list the ships I tried to find, but unfortunately couldn't: 

President Snow/Katniss, Effie/Peeta, Mrs. Everdeen/Haymitch. 

Get writing, fanfiction aficionados!
