Summary
“I’ve heard your kind were hardly better than feral dogs,” the cultist seethes with something like a wry smile on his cracked and swollen lips, “but I have to admit, you’ve managed to surprise me.”
His eyes wander over the Torchbearer’s piecemeal armor, his tattered green tunic caked in mud so that the embroidered symbology is barely visible, his bloodied hands that never seem to wash clean these days. But the prisoner’s gaze seems to linger longest on the handle of the battleaxe that the Torchbearer carries on his back.
Still faintly smiling, he asks, “Have you also come to offer me absolution, or are you my vengeful executioner here to relieve me of my head?”
“You’re still breathing, aren’t you?”

Summary
“So then why?” Simon demands. “Why am I still in here?”
Ava doesn’t even bother reprimanding him for interrupting again. She takes a deep breath as if steeling herself for what she’s about to say. “We tried to pull you out.”
Simon’s heart freezes. “W-What?”
“We tried to pull you out,” Ava repeats, the words shaky and uncertain for once. “And we couldn’t."
(Or: 5 things the ocean takes from Simon and 1 thing Simon refuses to let go of)

Summary
He focuses on her voice over the pain and rapidly dwindling oxygen. It sounds like she’s walking as she speaks—he can hear her footsteps. She says he’s earned his freedom. More than that, he’s a hero. She tells him it’s a good day: for humanity, for him. He wants to believe her.
The footsteps stop. A moment of silence, and then—“Why isn’t he out yet?”
OR
Simon gets the data. True her word, Ava pulls him out. It’s not necessarily over after that.

Summary
“C’mon, Cody. It was just a mistake. I’m sure you’ve made mistakes, haven’t we all?” General Skywalker asks.
CO Cody’s lip twitches in disgust at the very thought. Captain Gregor takes the pad as it is handed to him. Rex jumps to his feet and starts spewing platitudes before General Skywalker understands that he’s about to get his ass whooped in front of two separate units.
(Itty bitty AU where clones get equality during the war, and Jesse accidentally sets Obi-Wan's beard ablaze.)
