    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

    He rounded the corner towards the square right in front of the Temple– it was different than before because there had never been a square in front of the Temple.

    Obi-Wan froze in place the moment he looked up. His eyes observed the large statues one by one.

    Plo Koon, Mace Windu, Kit Fisto– they were all Councillors during the War.

    Obi-Wan stood in front of the statues as tears welled up in his eyes. He hadn’t seen them in a long time and these statues looked exactly like them. From facial features and expression down to the way they were seated– as if they were in a regular Council meeting.

    “Look Uncle Ben! It’s–” Obi-Wan leaped to Luke and covered his mouth before he could say anything else.

    “Yes, I see, it’s General Kenobi.” He hoped the beings whose attention was drawn towards them would move on quickly. “But try not to shout, Luke, alright?”

    His eyes left the boy to observe the statue of himself.

    Summary

    When Eddie’s bassist breaks his wrist right before Corroded Coffin’s first big tour he’s forced to turn to desperate measures. Namely: hiring Steve Harrington, a former industry golden boy who’s since fallen from grace, stopped recording, and vanished from the limelight entirely. Eddie’s never met Steve, but he knows he’ll hate him. He’s heard all the rumors about the guy. He knows Steve’s type — preppy, arrogant, nepo-baby asshole.

    Doesn't he?

    OR: The not-quite-famous-yet rock-tour enemies-to-lovers AU no one asked for.

    Summary

    October 4th 2023 Update: The end of two arcs

    NOTE: This fic is a reinvention of ASoIaF/GoT (we pretend the S7/S8 disasters never happened). We pick up where the Arya/Faceless storyline left off in tWoW prologue, then merge into the universe of the TV Show, then this world. The fic will end with the ending of the Game of Thrones, and beyond.

    A girl completes her training to become a faceless one. On the other side of the Narrow Sea, a man struggles not to fall in love with a memory. The two will meet again, this time as comrades-in-arms on a deadly mission. Other reunions are also inevitable, for Arya Stark has found a way to serve the Many-Faced God without surrendering her identity. How will the last of the Starks react to one of their own being an assassin? Meanwhile, Daenerys Targaryen moves on Westeros, a new King rises in the North, and everyone is still playing a Game no one can win...

    Summary

    One green flash, and the next thing Harry sees is a town sign: Welcome to Hawkins. Consequently, the more she adapts to her climate, the more suspicious she becomes of the town activity, particularly a little girl with wide eyes and a number tattooed onto her wrist.

    Something must be done to fix this endlessly strange town. She just needs those two boys to stop distracting her.
