April showers/Drabbles: The Hunger Games (1/5)

[keep_counting]

So, I recently participated in day_by_drabble, who were hosting a monthly drabble shower, from April the eight to May the ninth. Which means that I've managed to write 32 drabbles in about as many days. I feel really productive! It's been a great ride, both to write and read all the other's brilliant work and I really look forward to future events. Anywho, here's a list of everything I've written this time around (in different posts by fandom and with the number of the prompt as a completely useless detail for you) because... I should be studying. And I really don't want to. Though this is a really poor excuse. Anyway... here we go with the first batch:



Title: Bird of Prey (4)

Characters: Katniss Everdeen, President Snow
Genre: Angst
Rating & Warnings: R+, for blood and guts and death. Very AUish, so it doesn't spoil anything or really keeps with what happens in the books. Not even sure when it's set. Oh well. Pretend it's a dream
Word Count: 379
Summary: Katniss is dying

A/N: 'Histrion' or 'histrionic' is a real term; in ancient Rome it meant; 'a poor (bad) actor' or 'a jester'. The term has changed in modern times however - feel free to interpret both meanings into the text as you wish.
