Summary: Aspiring baker Katniss Everdeen finally gets her chance when she's chosen for The Great Panem Christmas Bake Off. Too bad, she's already managed to piss off the famous baker and Bake-Off judge, Peeta Mellark.
-------
All I can think about is cookies.
Those goddamn hot chocolate cookies.
Yes, Iāve grown up at a bakery and have had every cookie ever known to man. However, that was a long time ago. I was ten when my father turned our small mom-and-pop bakery into the conglomerate that it is now.
I can still taste the bittersweet chocolate mixed in with the saccharine of the marshmallows. Theyāve opened a hunger inside that I barely recognize. A memory of carob brown cookie dough and freeze-dried marshmallows being folded so carefully by a delicate hand, the bowl being cradled against a full breastā
āPeeta!ā I look up from my computer screen to see Rye, my older brother, bounding into my office like a puppy. He works as our media coordinator and is the reason that Iām actually on the Bake-Off. He thought that it would soften my image. āWhy so serious?ā
Rye walks over to my side of the desk, looking at my screen where our latest numbers are displayed on an excel spreadsheet.
āLooks like weāre still rich,ā he says with a wide grin. āWait, whatās on this tabāā
āNo!ā
I reach for my mouse to close it out but am too late.
āOh, Peetaā¦ā Rye tsks. āLooks like you have a crush on a girl.ā

Card number and prompt: Card 3 - Winter Wonderland
Title: A Christmas Winter Wonderland
Rating: G
Summary: Katniss and Peeta find themselves at France's Capital of Christmas. Set in my unnamed van life!lark universe.
Word count: 526
Authorās notes: Written for @talesofpanem, this little drabble is inspired by the Christmas market photos I've been seeing on here and Instagram, a chat with @shewakesupwiththesun, and by my own limited experiences of European Christmas markets (Strasbourg, the Capital of Christmas, being one of them). As always, a huge thank you to @jhsgf82 for beta-ing<3
Driving around Europe seemed like a pipe dream when they first tinkered with the idea of traveling in a van, but now here they are in Strasbourg, France.
Their family and friends thought their plan was a little absurd - why navigate a continent they donāt know, in a van, during wintertime? But Katniss and Peeta insisted. They wanted to see Europe in its wintry glory. Plus, they had the internet to blame, or to thank, depending on how you look at it. YouTube videos and Instagram posts of the Christmas markets and the holiday decor blanketing the towns won them over.
So thatās how Katniss and Peeta find themselves at Franceās oldest Christmas market and proclaimed ācapital of Christmasā or as the neon lights at the entrance state: āCapitale de Noelā. Itās only fitting that the day theyāre here is when the town is dusted in snow. They stand at the entrance of the market and are mesmerized by the sights, sounds, and smells of the ongoing festivities.
The archway that beckons them is well lit, bright white lights against warm yellow. Stars of varying sizes run along the arc, and two teddy bear shaped figures sit at each end. When they look past the arch, more lights are strung throughout in colors of red, green, blue, yellow, and white. Snowflake lights hang from the trees. Lit angels and gingerbread men hang high above the pathways. The stalls themselves have garlands and warm glows of their own. As Katnissā and Peetaās eyes wander to the picturesque buildings around them, they see garlands and streamers and Santa hats and banners of stars and hearts. A building or two has garlands made of cuddly teddy bears and boxes of presents with little trees at the occasional windowsill.
Excited chatter of children in awe of what they see fills the air; the little ones stretch their arms out attempting to point out the teddy bears or snowflakes or gingerbread men or other visual wonders around. Carolers sing Christmas classics in melodic harmony. Vendors are more than merry to talk to customers about their offerings. Clicks of cameras and shouts of what may be āsay cheeseā in varying languages can be heard throughout. Laughs and joyous vocals are abundant.
In unison, the petite brunette with a French braid hanging over her shoulder and the broad muscular blond with his unruly curls take a deep breath, inhaling the smells that waft its way over. Scents of evergreen, peppermint, and holiday spices tickle their noses.
What lies ahead of them is an absolute Christmas themed winter wonderland. Pictures and videos do not do it justice.
While excited, Katniss canāt help but feel a little overwhelmed, her senses overloaded. She takes another deep breath, readying herself.
Peeta stretches his left arm out to Katniss, and she enthusiastically grabs hold of it with her right. He gives her hand a squeeze which automatically makes her feel better. He looks down at her, eyebrows quirked and a smile on his face. āTogether?ā
Katniss grins back at him. āTogether.ā
Hand in hand, they walk into this Christmas Market wonderland, eager to take in what it has to offer.
@everlarkedalways day 4 a pita baked Christmas creation... So I chose cheese buns... Katniss's favorite treat.
Unfortunately they're never around long enough to share with others. So a small bet arises between Katniss and Peeta. But can Katniss keep away from temptation, given her current predicament?
āDo you like it?ā Katniss asks, holding the folds of her new nightgown up and giving a girlish twirl on the bedroom rug, making the skirt fly out and swish beautifully.
From the bed, Peeta smiles and holds out a hand to draw her closer, kissing her knuckles as she crawls up beside him. āThis is the same fabric as my new pajamas,ā he says with a smile.
Katniss shrugs and tugs thoughtfully at the dark green sleeves as she says, wry and soft, āThe seamstress had some fabric left over ā and I thought we could match, like old times.ā
A fruitcake. No one in District 12 should turn their nose up at a fruitcake, yet some do. Thereās been too much time thatās passed since the district was desperate with hunger. As much as some may oppose this baked Christmas treat, Katniss adores when Peeta creates it. It fills their home with the scents of fruits and spice, yeast and sugar. And it reminds her of another loaf on another day. A loaf packed with fruit and nuts. It reminds her of love and hope. So she eats each slice and kisses Peeta with sugar dusted lips.

Part 1 Here
Part 2 HereĀ
Inspired by The Hunger Games and the Jekyll and Hyde musical. Canon-typical implied violence. Unbetaād.
Katniss wakes to a jolt of pain in her ribs. She pushes herself out of bed, groaning. Slowly, she swings her legs onto the cold floorboards.
She remembers the warmth of Dr. Mellarkās living room, and the way the light of the fire reflected in his eyes. Heād looked at her with a sort of innocence, as if it were she that was the angel. And thatās why heās dangerous.Ā
Katniss dresses in a long-sleeved dress to cover the purple splotches on her skin, and braids her hair as quickly as her tired arms will allow.
She has to skip breakfast because it takes her so long to get ready. When she finally makes it downstairs, the clubās nearly empty, and Spider is in a foul mood.
āYouāre late,ā he snaps, appraising her with his green eyes that always remind her of the scales of a snake. āGet to work.ā
She pulls a face when he turns his back.
She makes round serving drinks, flirting with customers, but when one man tries to pull her on his lap, she canāt stand the pressure of his fingers against the bruises on her hips. How the hell is she going to pull off the evening performance?
āKatniss.ā
Dr. Mellark is striding towards her, and the sight of his broad chest takes her breath away. He is as handsome as ever, but as he approaches, she sees the exhaustion in his eyes.
The hearth crackles like autumn leaves under a brown boot as Katniss sets the family laundry over the fire screen to dry. She smiles quietly to herself as she arranges her embroidered wedding stockings next to Peetaās brown woolen ones. Theyād been thoroughly ruined this afternoon when heād tramped through the dark and the slush into town for butter from his family bakery, but the trip was well worth it, because now the scent of meltingly fluffy biscuits to go with a rich white gravy is wafting from the kitchen and making her mouth water. She can hear her husband humming to himself, an off-key rendition of their hearthsong. With stockings by the fire and song in the kitchen, the cold of winter stops at the doormat and up in the eaves, and though it storms and frosts, it canāt come in.
Katniss mentions that there were quite a few times she resorted to eating pine bark in the past. I think Peeta would want to replace those memories of hollow days with something decadent and fun, so I imagine he would make these cute little cookies for her, and restore the appeal of evergreens to Everdeen.
