    Summary

    Annie and her family had not prepared a token to be taken with her so she boarded the train with a stiff cord that her brother used to tie his own hair back away from his face. It was a short piece that couldn’t be used for anything else so it was allowed. Finnick had halved the cord and wrapped it around Annie’s wrist, securing it with his favorite sailor’s breastplate, seizing the knot so it would remain securely in place but still decorative.

     

    At the time, Annie had traced the knot with her finger and smiled to herself. When Finnick had asked her what was so amusing she only shook her head and told him it reminded her of something her papa had told her once.

     

    He wondered if it was similar to what his own father had told him, about how after the Dark Days for most fishermen there was only rope available to display unions of marriage. They would take cords and use basket weaving knots to decorate their brides’ wrists.

    Summary

    *From the 65th Hunger Games through the Revolution - Finnick's point of view.*

    To win the game, he has to play.

    Summary

    They Shook Hands tells the overplot of the Harry Potter series using the Slytherin characters. I couldn’t find the sort of story I wanted to read. I still haven’t found anything that comes close. Canon events still happen, just not in the same manner. I do not introduce wildly out of place elements to the plot. I don’t suddenly send the plot spiralling off into strange new directions. There will be no new systems of magic, mages, elementals, Lordships, harems, or Tolkien elves. I have tried to write a realistic, canonesque story. My characters are not Junior Death Eaters. Every canon incident of their bad behaviour is present here. They are bullies. They are mean. But they’re not evil.
    The functional POD is that the Malfoys have a child before Draco, and their development is slightly different. By the time Draco meets Harry, he's realised the value of friendship and is more open of a person. The POD for Harry is when he meets Draco in Madam Malkin's. In TSH, unlike canon, he introduces himself to Draco. They shake hands and decide to be friends. The story is distinct from other Harry-in-Slytherin fics because it doesn't turn on Harry being sorted to Slytherin but rather on Harry becoming friends with Draco.
