Any fics where katniss is indigenous?
Hello Anon!
I've compiled a small list of fics I could find through AO3 that may fit the prompt (I used multiple prompts so I cannot guarantee that they all actually fit as I have not read them)! Hopefully, some are new to you! Happy reading!
Captive of The Seam-IzzySamson (ao3) Summary: The old woman laid her gnarled hands on his head, looked to the sky, and chanted some words, and the girls sang along. Katniss was not as enthusiastic as the other two, but she sang dutifully. Even naïve Peeta knew that this was some sort of ceremony…but its purpose was unknown. They could have been preparing to slit his throat and sacrifice him to some heathen god for all he knew. Sae gave him a toothless, loving smile, and said, “My son.” He felt a little sense of relief; he would not be killed, at least not today. Dominion-atetheredmind (ao3) Summary: “Killing me would be a waste when you could leverage something much more useful out of me.“ Captain Peeta Mellark strikes a deal with his captor, the Empress Katniss Everdeen. The Heirs-basilique (ao3) Summary: I don’t have any friends left over from my childhood, and I don’t have any friends with any childhood left in them. I like it that way. It was a clean cut. It made a clean line. When you break a bone, it heals stronger. When a person is stripped of everything she knows, her skin gets thicker. The Sacking of Persia-therebelliondies (ao3) Summary: Peeta is a lonely, damaged soldier in Alexander the Great’s army and they are a day away from taking the Persian city of Persepolis. How much can his life change when he meets the young native girl, Katniss, during the army’s pillaging of the great city? when it comes to be my turn, could you shine it down here for her?-amoebaesque (ao3) Summary: a study of hair and the loss of a sister. or katniss mourns her sister in seven acts. you’re on your own, kid (you always have been)-revelationinthelightofday (ao3) Summary: Now Katniss is nineteen years old and abandoned in a place that echoes with names branded onto her soul, and thousands more whose names she never learnt but whose weight she carries all the same. There is blood on her hands — blood of children, blood of men, blood of tyrants. She is a shell of herself, left out in the sun to rot, left out in the valley plains to be picked clean by buzzards, left out in a grave to be buried alive. There is nobody left to care for her but drunks and pitying veterans, because Katniss Everdeen saved a nation and yet her mother will never speak to her again. The grief of losing Prim stretches out between them, unspoken, a song that can never be heard but the rhythm is felt just the same.
I’ll be adding this to future masterlist topics! If anyone knows of any, please let me know and I’ll add it here.
As always, if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please feel free to shoot me an ask!

Outside Chance-katnissdoesnotfollowback (ao3) Summary: Katniss has a shot at doing something no one else has done -- bringing home an Olympic medal to the USA in the winter biathlon. But it's only a slim chance. When her training falls below expectations, her coach orders her to find her heart and the will to compete rather than focusing on the precision that's gotten her this far.
Thank you @toastbaby for the addition!
