Notes: I am indebted, first and foremost, to Suzanne Collins, whose wonderful young adult series inspired this story. fishandcustard listened very patiently while I ironed out early ideas for this adaptation, and bribed me with macarons; bauble worked clean-up shift and helped fix many of the story's lingering problems. siriaeve knows she is always my first and best soundingboard. And the amazing aesc-artist, writer, and jumpin' Jupiter, road buddy extraordinaire-inspired me with her beautiful work and was invaluable in shaping the final product. Thank you all so much!
