I have the weirdest feeling like I've already read this (did you write it for a ficathon or something?). ANYWHO, it's gorgeous and I love it. Break my heart all over again why don't you? <3

Yeah I did write this for a ficathon but I don't know what the ficathon was, and I found this in the depths of my hard drive. Thanks!

Ugh, this hurts me.

It’s funny the way time passes. Fifteen years gone, fifteen years of new people, new girls to learn but he still feels her the most. It took a lot of him to learn her the way he did - countless hours spent crouching in the brush, a good amount of desperation and starvation. It was a miracle, really. He’ll never know any girl like he knows her.

Y-E-S, this is so sharp and true ... for him and I'm sure for her. Poor kids.

Thank you! I just really feel like no one understands each other like the two of them, and I guess that kind of love appeals to me a lot more than the romanticized Peeta stuff.

Thanks! Gale is my absolute favorite, along with Johanna, and I feel like his life is so interesting post-Mockingjay. I'm glad you thought I did well with him.
