Unto the Labyrinth: Chapter 7

Soon, the plate beneath Maze’s feet began rising, taking her with it. The tunnel plunged Maze into darkness, and she gulped, nausea clenching her stomach.

This was it.

Thirty seconds later — which felt like an eternity to Maze; the launch room must have been deep underground— she emerged into bright light. She blinked a few times, before taking in the sight of the arena before her.

Graphic Depictions of Violence, Major Character Death

Relationships: OC & OC, Beetee Latier & OC

Summary: “Maze Donahue always thought she would be lonely forever. No one wanted to be friends with a troublesome orphan with a penchant for pranks. But when the unthinkable happens and she is Reaped for the 57th Hunger Games, she is shocked to find people taking an interest in her for the first time ever - the Capitol, her mentor Beetee, and even other tributes. She must deal with the impermanence of this social support, including the deaths of her allies, and try to survive the horrors of the Hunger Games and all that comes afterwards.

But no matter what, she won’t ever be alone again.”

🍰👮‍♀️🧠 - for the fic writer ask!

I just now saw this in my inbox 😭

🍰: Name one of your fave comfort fics (doesn’t have to be your all time fave).

It has to be Cells At Work: Realisations by Corvus_Albus on AO3! That fic is so fluffy I could die and I’ve reread it at least five times at this point ❤️

👮: If one of your fics was going to get you arrested, which one and why?

Back in like 2013 I wrote this fic called “Autumn White and the Five Strange Wizards” where an 11-12 year old girl was in an implied relationship with an ancient timeless man in the body of an 11-12 year old boy, so…yeah. It was also not a very good fic, as the titular character was very much a Mary Sue and I made my Warrior Cats self-insert OC randomly appear in the fic for no reason.

If you want the displeasure of reading this fic, here is the link to when I cross posted it to AO3 a few years back, albeit edited for ease of reading and without the usage of ableist slurs, and here’s the original FFN link in its full unedited glory

🧠: What’s an idea you have that you can’t quite call a WIP yet?

I’ve been wanting to write another SPY x Family fic for a while, a longer one where Anya gets kidnapped by the scientists who experimented on her and Loid and Yor have to rescue her and they all find out their secret identities and it’s angsty and dramatic but also fluffy
