AO3 version of the first few postwar things (Victor consolidation up to Rokia going to Lyme's for the first time), with minor proofread-type edits from what was already posted on here. Because someone on Tumblr asked me to put this stuff up, and in case anyone wants a neater version.

It was really fun to be able to read all of this put together on AO3!
Rokia and Selene (+ sometimes Dash!) kicking it together really does it for me, I've gotta say!

(for some reason Tyde being conciliatory and right really made me laugh)

I really enjoy Selene and Rokia's dynamic! Selene is like "we're gonna be friends now, you're cool" and they do fun things and don't have to talk about ~feelings~~~ and it's good. And Dash is good because he's a pretty non-threatening dude and very friendly but not pushy at all so he rounds out the group well.

(when Sara and Selene become friends everyone's a bit like oh dear they get along way too well)

ETA: I enjoy Finnick being prickly and stubborn because he finally doesn't have to pretend anymore, and Tyde being like "yes okay you're not wrong but let's be nice to our friends shall we?"

It is a pretty great dynamic! (ha ha, oh man, Selene and Sara- I didn't even start to think about that XD;) I had a moment of concern that when Dash came along things might be more difficult in some fashion, but I was happily very wrong <3

I think it was the contrast that did it for me- Finnick can say whatever he wants! But Tyde's like, 'does it have to be that right now?'
