see me if you can

At the peak of my 13-year-oldness, I wrote a Hunger Games fic in which a former tribute (who won, obviously) had to watch her two kids being reaped the same year, and for extra drama, the organizer made her their mentor. The fic alternated between flashbacks to her own Games with the allies she made and saw die, and the fact that eventually she would have to choose which of her kids to save (or just straight up abandon both to the arena).

So far so good right?

Except the year was 2012. It was a songfic.

And the song I chose? The chorus to Nicky Minaj’s STARSHIPS.

"Starships" being the name her group of allies was given by the viewers. "Let’s do this one more time" was unironically the saddest line in the fic.

OP where is the fic

facts, ladies & gentlemen
