District 9 has a long and infamous history of never making it past the bloodbath in The Hunger Games, with their sole Victor being an aged man who lost his mind in his own games and never recovered it. It's hardly a shock that when you're from District 9, being reaped is a death sentence. You're going to be overlooked by the Capitol; no one is going to waste money betting or sponsoring a known lost cause. But when Cornelia Flax, the daughter of District 9's Capitol-loving lap dog of a Mayor, is reaped for the 72nd Hunger Games, she refuses to go out in the bloodbath. She will use every ounce of charm and showmanship she possesses to beat the odds set out in front of her.

Fan Con Short Story
He's not the star of the show. She's not looking for a hook up. What happens when a fangirl meets a character from her favorite television program at a fan convention? This started out as a quick little one shot, but it wrote itself into a short story very quickly. It has been in my mind for a while, and I thought I would be able to write it in one chapter. It just seemed to need more details. It's based on Walker Stalker Con, but I tried to keep it generic enough that it could really be applied to almost any fandom. My characters are original. None of the characters have names. If you feel you recognize someone... you may be right. Or maybe not. Contains mature language and smut. Stop right here if you might be offended.Complete
