Summary: Life doesn't always turn out the way you planned it.
Author's notes: This was written for RemixRedux 2014. The story it's based on is Firewood by purple_cube, which is a Johanna Mason character study that ends with her and Gale together. It's a lovely fic and I started picturing this remix of it the moment I read it. And then I started getting worried as I wrote this one, because I'd been so off for so long because of my recent health issues. Well, to make a long story short, I started writing it late and then it kept getting longer and longer without dovetailing with PC's fic, but I think it turned out pretty okay in the end. Enjoy!
The Hunger Games played in the corner of the main room on the Hawthorne family’s battered old television.
