    Summary

    “No!” He protests, too loud for the soft moment and making his brother freeze in where he was about to abandon him to the sheets, “Please-” he begs, eyes burning but no tears to be shed as his voice drops back down into a hoarse whisper, “Let me have this… please?”

    “Tommy-”

    “I just-” he shudders around his own words, “Just this once? Before you go?”

    Techno chuffs softly, “I’m not leaving, Runt,” he assures, even though he doesn’t know it's a lie, “I’m not leaving, okay?”

    “You will...” Tommy’s eyes flutter shut again, exhaustion dragging him down as he longs to whisper more, “You will… You all do… you all will…”

     

    (Where Tommy dies in prison and ends up in the past with all the trauma to fuck it up again... and his scars keep appearing? What the hell?)

    Summary

    the chronological compilation of all the 'do or do not' snippets and ficlets

    Summary:

    When Obi-Wan dies by Anakin's hand, he expects that to be the end.

    It is not.

    When he opens his eyes again, all of thirteen but with forty extra years of experience, not even the dust, dread, and death on Melidaan can stand in his way. Obi-Wan had seen the worst that the galaxy had to offer twice over - he'll be damned if he lets everything happen the same way for the second time.

    Enter one Jedi Master Yan Dooku, the lynchpin to so many of the galaxy's darkest turns in the future-that-was. Torn between a Master who doesn't seem to want him and a man wearing the face of the Sith who had once tortured him, Obi-Wan makes a choice.

    Everything changes.

    Summary

    A small indulgence now and again never hurt anyone, Zhongli maintains. Though in retrospect, perhaps he had allowed himself a few too many of them. It's regrettable that he had only realized his error when it had come knocking at his door, presenting him with an expense record that would make anyone quail — even the God of Wealth himself.

    “Your expense record this year is nearly ten times your yearly income,” the civil servant tells him. “Could you declare the source of funds for your purchases?”

    After minting a small fortune for the purchase of antiques, Zhongli gets slapped with tax fraud charges that, due to a poor cover up attempt by an ever helpful Childe, blows up into accusations of money laundering for the Fatui. Yanfei and the adepti are pulled in and court shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    He swayed with the heavy wind buffeting the Liyue cliffside. Another storm was coming, if the thick smell of humidity and the rolling clouds in the direction of Inazuma were anything to go by.

    Guyun stone forest lay before him, a thousand years of harsh winds and acidic rains weathering the ancient stone pillars into rounded mounds. Water levels rising continuously had also done their part in drowning the remnants of an age so far gone even the people of the current time would likely fail to recall it in records.

    ‘People of the current time’.

    As though Teyvat still lived.
