It was a quick agreement making Madge's head spin slightly. She had thought talking him into their lunch table would take a lot more work and convincing. It wasn't like the royal we were anymore appealing as moldy bread. But things were worse than fake friends in district twelve. She didn't know what it was too starve, but she also didn't close her eyes. People in brightly lit places could rarely see in the dark. But she was trying. How he had busted his knee like this was beyond her understanding though she was always more delicate boned herself. She was glad he hadn't asked how a mayor's daughter knew healing so well. She knew Katniss's mother was pretty good, but going to learn seemed out of her element or her role. Fantasizing about Gale was already enough of a foil. A slightly wet laugh. "If you insist on a peace offering of bread, I can't stop you I suppose, but it is not required." she countered. Hospitable was something most couldn't afford in 12 though it made her heart beat easier. "Your telling me that you don't take all your girlfriends to the seamstress? I'm kidding though the idea of you being sat into a corner with knitting needles is an interest take." Before he could overly brace, she pulled the fabric tight against his skin whispering a silent apology.

If she had been given options, she would have wanted to be a healer. It did her heart good to be able to help Peeta. To do something. To have someone let her do something. She needed a true friend. The mellark boy was worthy regardless. Still, she tried a wet smile. The pale blue dress was something she enjoyed, but it wasn’t worth causing anyone to continue to hurt themselves. Madge wished that it was another color as it became dotted with crimson. Punitive was something she wasn’t. She’d read some stories about fairies who couldn’t do any kindness without receiving something equal. That world seemed to be one that would burn. the sound had been jarring as well as his facial expression. Pain must have been causing him to jolt like that. She almost felt bad about that or calling him peeta without asking first even if he hadn’t seemed to care. didn’t he have sisters? “If you must repay me, join us for lunch at school tomorrow, but you don’t need too.” she says evenly. though her eyes don’t lift to see whatever pity he might hold for such a request. “Stop selling yourself short. Clothes are replaceable. People- sadly- are not. And your doing fine. I just want to tie it to staunch the bleeding and promote healing. It might pull slightly. And i’d rather not be kicked in the face.”

Tumblr media
book three in the LC series by Marissa Meyer- feel free to edit quotes or change pronouns for rp purposes
“I promise, I will not let you die without being kissed.”
“Don’t tell me it took you two whole days to realize that you are in love with me. I must be losing my touch.”
“You can help me pick out a tiara when we’re done saving the world.”
“Right. I’m sure that poor etiquette is the number one reason for most failed revolutions.”
 "I know you can hear me. I'm sorry my friend is such a wing nut. You can just ignore him."
"Do you think it was destiny that brought us together?"
"It starts with kidnapping the groom."
"The sky is gorgeous, intense blue color."
“Have you given any thought to your wedding vows?”
“Delete anything that has to do with love, respect, or joy, and I’ll sign on the dotted line.”
“I believe it is the mark of a great leader to question the decisions that came before him.”
“It turns out you are worth a lot of money on the black market.”
"Do you ever think before you speak?"
“Maybe great, epic romances don't just happen. We have to make them ourselves.”
“Wow, when you research, you really research, don't you?”
“So I’m going there, and I’m going to start a revolution.”
“If you honestly believe that then you really don't recognize true value when you see it.”
"Oh. Um. In a constellation, the brightest star is called the alpha. I thought maybe you meant that she's
like
your brightest star.
“Maybe there isn’t such a thing as fate. Maybe it’s just the opportunities we’re given, and what we do with them. I’m beginning to think that maybe great, epic romances don’t just happen. We have to make them ourselves.”
“You know, when I was a kid, I was tricked into thinking that princesses wore tiaras and hosted tea parties. Now that I've met a real princess, I must say, I'm kind of disappointed.”
"Is she blushing? She sounds like she's blushing."
"That is the best idea ever. Count me in.”
"Can we get back to these soldiers that are being rounded up, please?"
“Could you describe all those threats again because I feel like I missed something.”
"Very wanted criminal of me too.”
"Are you having a mental breakdown right now?”
"Maybe there's a little bit of a hero in me after all. But
 really. Only a little.”
“Yeah, hold that thought while I go disable the speaker system.”
“Oh, for all the stars."
“Never underestimate the stealth of a criminal mastermind.”
"I prefer damsel in distress,"
“You’re not looking.”
“We are experiencing a level-one security breach and all elevators have been temporarily shut down. Please enjoy a hot cup of tea while we wait for clearance.”
“Oh, yeah, she’s great. I mean, half the people in the world want to kill her and the other half want to chain her to a throne on the moon, which is just what she’s always wanted. So she’s fantastic.”
“You know, if it was a bad kiss, you can just say so.”
“Everyone is trying to impress everyone else. Trying to make themselves out to be smarter or more confident than they actually are.”
I hate to break this to you, but I am sweaty and itchy and haven't brush my teeth in two days. This just isn't a good time for romance.”
“I like to maintain an air of mystery.”
“That’s not at all what I 
 Wait. Did you think it was a bad kiss?”
“We were going to die, you know.”
“Because the palace walls have been bleeding for years, and no one else sees it.”
“Don't try to push your swoony psychodrama on me.”
“It would be like those epic love affairs that exploded into existence and burned white hot for all eternity. The type of love that time and distance and death couldn't seperate”
“All right, damsel. Send over those coordinates.”
"I think I am in love with you."
“Maybe there isn’t such a thing as fate. Maybe it’s just the opportunities we’re given, and what we do with them.”
“We are obviously soul mates. Now please, stand up.”
“You’ve probably told lots of girls you loved them.”
“Well, yeah, but I would have reconsidered if I’d known you were going to hold it against me.”
“It was kind of nice to know that they were both wrong."
“For my next trick, I will win a staring contest with the moron in orange sunglasses.”
“Good. Because I need you. And those are not words that I throw around every day.”
“Although. . . somehow, I always pictured the princess . . . I don't know. In a dress.”
“She was a girl. A living girl, smart and sweet and awkward and unusual, and she was worth far more than they could ever realize.”
“I serve my princess. No one else.”
“I am not happy with this turn of events."
“Well, it’s annoying and we’re running out of time. Come on.”
"You'd rather take your chances with her?"
“Then stop going comatose on me!”
“He’s just gone inside to be heroic. I’m sure he’ll be glad to know you’re here. I believe he’s under the impression that you’re out in space somewhere.”
“It always came back to love. More than freedom, more than acceptance—love. True love, like they sang about in the second era. The kind that filled up a person's soul. The kind that lent itself to dramatic gestures and sacrifices. The kind that was irresistible and all-encompassing.”
“I just needed some time to figure out who I was 
 am.”
"Because if I'd ruined that for you, I was going to feel like such a cad.”
“I can’t let anyone else die,”
“What do you suggest? You clearly know all about this political revolution stuff, so please enlighten me, O wrinkled one.”
“The only way through this is to fight.”
“She deserved it, the snake. After keeping my little golden bird locked up in her cage for so long.”
“I just think I’m not the best person to demonstrate all the goodness humanity has to offer. I don’t want you to be too disappointed when you realize that.”
“That you’re lonely, and I’m irresistible?”
“He did, in fact, look like a romance hero, all muscles and edges and chiseled bone structure. He also looked miserable.”
“Our country was built on a foundation of equality and togetherness, not prejudice and hatred.”
“When Rapunzel saw the prince, she fell over him and began to weep, and her tears dropped into his eyes”
No more secrets. I don't know if I can survive any more big reveals from you, so if you have anything else to tell me, out with it. Right now."
this is sweet, but aren’t I the first guy you’ve ever met? Come on, up you go.”
“She would have freedom, and friendships, and purpose. And she would be with him.”
“Because if there was one thing she knew about heroes, it was that they could not resist a damsel in distress. And she was nothing if not in distress.”
“Love. It always came back to love. More than freedom, more than acceptance—love. True love, like they sang about in the second era. The kind that filled up a person’s soul. The kind that lent itself to dramatic gestures and sacrifices. The kind that was irresistible and all-encompassing.”
I'm almost afraid to ask, Your Majesty."
“As it turned out, being human was every bit as much fun as she'd always thought it would be.”

Jeremiah had known Cameron since they were kids. She had a certain way about her that made you want to join in her orbit. Her sun kissed blonde hair all the more inviting as those big doe eyes. He had thought it unrequited. Never had the dark haired boy thrown the first punch. But this man was getting to handsy and his jealous had got the better of him. Guilt and anger pooled in his stomach though he shot a small smile the shorter girl's way. He did his best not to wince at the more than harsh way with which she was helping him with the rag. Not to make her feel any of his guilt or worry unnecessary. "It's not that I don't think your capable. You being capable is the problem. Why did you let him treat you like that. cam?"
OPEN TO : males / nonbinary.
PLOT: cameron cleans up your muses wounds after they get into a scuffle at a party after spotting her dancing with another guy and getting jealous .
POTENTIAL CONNECTIONS: older brothers bestfriend , bestfriend's boyfriend , childhood bestfriend .
Tumblr media
damp linen is held delicately on the others knuckles in attempt to ease their suffering as the pair hide away in the privacy of the bathroom , hoping to avoid anymore drama for the remainder of the evening . bright hues then lift to gaze upon them and offer a somewhat displeased and scornful look . " you had no right to interfere , you know . i'm a big girl . i don't need you constantly looking out for me . "

“Although. . . somehow, I always pictured the princess . . . I don't know. In a dress.”
“She was a girl. A living girl, smart and sweet and awkward and unusual, and she was worth far more than they could ever realize.”
“I serve my princess. No one else.”
“I am not happy with this turn of events."
“Well, it’s annoying and we’re running out of time. Come on.”
"You'd rather take your chances with her?"

“He’s just gone inside to be heroic. I’m sure he’ll be glad to know you’re here. I believe he’s under the impression that you’re out in space somewhere.”
“It always came back to love. More than freedom, more than acceptance—love. True love, like they sang about in the second era. The kind that filled up a person's soul. The kind that lent itself to dramatic gestures and sacrifices. The kind that was irresistible and all-encompassing.”
“I just needed some time to figure out who I was

No more secrets. I don't know if I can survive any more big reveals from you, so if you have anything else to tell me, out with it. Right now."

“She would have freedom, and friendships, and purpose. And she would be with him.”
“Because if there was one thing she knew about heroes, it was that they could not resist a damsel in distress. And she was nothing if not in distress.”
“Love. It always came back to love. More than freedom, more than acceptance—love. True love, like they sang about in the second era. The kind that filled up a person’s soul. The kind that lent itself to dramatic gestures and sacrifices. The kind that was irresistible and all-encompassing.”

If she had been given options, she would have wanted to be a healer. It did her heart good to be able to help Peeta. To do something. To have someone let her do something. She needed a true friend. The mellark boy was worthy regardless. Still, she tried a wet smile. The pale blue dress was something she enjoyed, but it wasn't worth causing anyone to continue to hurt themselves. Madge wished that it was another color as it became dotted with crimson. Punitive was something she wasn't. She'd read some stories about fairies who couldn't do any kindness without receiving something equal. That world seemed to be one that would burn. the sound had been jarring as well as his facial expression. Pain must have been causing him to jolt like that. She almost felt bad about that or calling him peeta without asking first even if he hadn't seemed to care. didn't he have sisters? "If you must repay me, join us for lunch at school tomorrow, but you don't need too." she says evenly. though her eyes don't lift to see whatever pity he might hold for such a request. "Stop selling yourself short. Clothes are replaceable. People- sadly- are not. And your doing fine. I just want to tie it to staunch the bleeding and promote healing. It might pull slightly. And i'd rather not be kicked in the face."

Madge was known to be the sort of princess of district twelve. A puppet for the capitol, but she was more than that. Her heart was open to more people and she found the less fortunate much better companions. Had liked Gale for quite some time since he had brought her strawberries as a young boy. Peeta had been a piece in other people’s games, but a face for her. The blonde needed her. She didn’t want to break his personal bubble though there was little that could hold her back in this moment especially when she had the capabilities. he seemed to have the same training of offering for help instead of taking it. Trying to school her features was harder than normal for the golden haired blonde. 12 was a dog eat dog world. Maybe being the yappy little thing wasn’t helpful though it was who she was. The voice was barely heard though it was all the ascent that she needed. The indecision in those beautiful orbs of his leaving slightly. The redness lingered in her eyes as the left over salt rivers ran down the pale expanses of her cheeks. The blood was sticky as her fingers moved to gently show it to the sun. She tried not to pull the fabric to harshly from its place to cause more pain. It was a pretty dress, but- the sound of ripping filled the air making her wince slightly. The expanse of the end of her dress. It was clean at least and she could use a bit of water with it to clean his cut and wrap it. The dirt already clung to his pants so they weren’t capable of use. “It was a lovely dress.” she agreed not afraid of her girlish love of clothing and beautiful things. “Now, its a bandage. Could you hold still for me, mr. mellark?”

the  look  of  unexpected  horror  when  she  rips  her  dress  takes  over  quicker  than  at  the  pain  coming  from  his  knee,  his  brows  knitted.  he  didn’t  want  her  going  as  far  as  damaging  her  clothing,  not  for  him.  but  it’s  too  late  and  she’s  doing  what  she  wants,  so  it’s  inevitable  to  stop  it.  all  he  can  do  is  muster  up  ways  to  make  up  for  it  later.  ❝  guess  i’ll  be  repaying  you  with  free  cupcakes  or  cheese  buns  for  a  week?  maybe  a  month.  because  you  really  didn’t  have  to  do  that.  ❞  he  can’t  help  but  say  again,  watching  her  hands  work  to  aid  his  knee.  like  his  mother  would  have  that,  but  if  she  finds  out  he’ll  deal  with  the  consequences  later  because  the  mayor’s  daughter  is  more  than  deserving  of  something  free  for  her  help.  ❝  i’ll  try. ❞  he  says  as  a  joke,  but  all  the  moving  around  he’s  doing  it’s  barely  that  until  she  mentions  it  and  he  stays  still  this  time.

Katniss knew better than most that there was no way around Snow's designated story line which could have been why she fought her feelings for Peeta so harshly. Her eyes study his movement. It's more confident than the last time they were on this train. He must have done some training for the swell of his arms is bigger than before. Why had Haymitch left them alone? She absently reached to fix the length of her hair. The braid feeling slightly odd now that it was put up in capitol garb. Peeta was the type of killer like a poison. Underestimated and beautiful. she didn't much like letting it into her bones. Caring put people in danger just like primrose had been used for her. And lord help her if she smiled. He had his own bravery like his sunny blonde hair and the smile lines against the edges of his mouth. A soft scoff. "who's to say I haven't been working on haymitch this whole time? You would kick me out of what you call a home? He might look better in their wedding dress options." But she lingered on the idea that it could have been her. That it might still be her from him. "Who knows, you could have been talking about one of the adoring men and women eager to 'steal you' from me."

Was that cold? She had been more surprised than anything else though Peeta had always been the more compassionate, people person. Cold was the only way to survive. Nursing the glass in her hand felt more important at the moment in this rare silence of this victory tour of theres. This breathing room something she had never been used too as the world around them revolted and crumbled to pieces as if it had ever been whole. Part of her was jealous of the ability to know how to phrase how you feel that way. Poetry of thoughts seemed to be another gifting of his. The everdeen girl had gotten used to reading him and the pain made her own breath catch. Yet outwardly, her face remained unchanged despite a tick in her jaw. Had his eyes always been little pools of fresh ocean water? Had she always liked the closeness of his form? Every exchange of words between Peeta and her seemed like a dance, a step forward, a step back, circling, both of them leading, anticipating, wondering what the next move would be. A slight uptick to her smirk. “So your telling me you just suggested to your future wife that you have a new beau? Maybe we should alert the media.” It’s cold, but a certain ascent.

arm  slumps  against  the  chair  next  to  him,  material  of  his  blazer  rubbing  against  the  cherry  armrest.  sitting  still  for  a  moment.  taking  in  katniss’s  reaction  and  noticing  the  smallest  things,  the  way  her  lips  twitch  in  the  very  slightest.  taking  even  the  smallest  sign  she  isn’t  as  made  of  stone  on  the  inside  as  she  is  the  outside.  of  course  she  isn’t,  she’s  done  too  many  selfless  things  to  prove  that.  it’s  his  fault  for  wearing  his  heart  on  his  sleeve,  he  shouldn’t  had  let  his  feelings  for  her  interfere.  he  gets  that  now,  he  just  has  to  figure  out  a  way  to  get  over  that  part.  the  hurt  of  it.  starcrossed  lovers  or  unrequited  lovers?  he  thinks.   ❝  it’s  okay  if  you’re  jealous. ❞  peeta  replies,  amusement  dripping  off  his  tone  and  in  his  gaze.  ❝  what  would  the  headline  say?  something  like
  i  had  realized  haymitch  is  my  home?  ❞  he  can’t  hold  back  the  sound  of  a  soft  laugh  on  that  one,  it’s  so  ridiculous  it’s  too  hilarious  not  to  laugh  at  it.  just  as  ridiculous  as  him  thinking  of  there  being  someone  else.
