Why This Must Be Read:

Part of what I love most about Johanna/Finnick is their friendship-with-benefits vibe. The way they genuinely care for each other and help each other through what the Capitol does to them. This is that fic.

Excerpt:
They met for the first time on her Victory Tour. He acted as her escort at the dinner in her honor in District 4, outwardly appearing to be everything that she'd seen of Finnick Odair on television over the years. It was the way that he acted when no one else was watching that made her like him. The jokes whispered at the expense of the other guests, how he pointed out the people to avoid and rescued her when she wasn't able to get away on her own.

Why This Must Be Read: Johanna and Finnick flirt with rebellion, and learn that the Capitol has teeth. Oh, my god. This fic is so well written, and the premise gives you chills but you can't look away. It enraptures you. Johanna gets called for the so-called "duty" that Snow foists upon her after she becomes a victor, and the friendship that springs up with Finnick is wonderful and deep and honest, and my personal canon. It isn't a true romance/pairing fic, because Finnick and Johanna truly see each other as just best friends. But the way the Capital tugs and pulls at them - oh, just read it. It's really good.
