Fics like memento mori

In District 4, you learn how to swim before you learn how to walk. Finnick doesn’t remember his first steps. They were never important. He remembers the first time he swam. God, was it beautiful. No one in District 4 remembers their first steps, Finnick is certain. He doesn’t even remember his little sister’s first steps. Ophelia was just as bad as him when it came to the ocean, when it came to being awestruck by it all. Finnick wasn’t a very good influence on her — he encouraged her to sneak out at night with him. To dive into the water, to laugh under the moon. She’d tackle him into the water and he’d let himself sink as far as he could, pulling her down with him until he’d drag both of them back to the surface. They’d both be laughing, giggling, trying to dunk each other, trying to go under again, trying to touch the bottom. Trying to reach out for something they could never begin to hope to reach. (or, finnick odair's life has never been easy, and it's about to get a hell of a lot worse)
