    Summary

    Cobb can’t help smiling wryly and wondering if the Mandalorian has been looking for someone to take home who his mama would approve of.

    He wonders if the Mandalorian’s knees went weak in the face of Boba Fett’s endless list of successful bounties. He wonders if he stammers when he tries to talk to him.

    It would be cute if so.

    Cobb’s jaw has been aching for the last two days.

    (Cobb Vanth is called down to Anchorhead to investigate a case on behalf of a Tatooine historical society. He leaves having just learned that the Mandalorian he's been opening his heart to has been opening his heart to someone else.)

    Summary

    “What’re you making?”

    Master Dooku is gesturing at Qui asking why the remains of some long-perished vermin is parked in the middle of the caf table, but Qui cannot explain through gestures alone that this is a creative hobby, not a red flag.

    “A windchime,” Xana says tightly.

    Obi-Wan peers at the table for a long time.

    “Out of those?” he asks, pointing at the bones.

     

    (Xanatos comes home and Qui-Gon ends up with two padawans at the same time at wildly different stages of life. The lineage comes together to try to help both get settled, and of course it can't be straightforward.)

    Summary

    When Helix had first found out about Melidaan, a lot of his General's habits slotted neatly into place. Like a broken bone that healed wrong, he'd called it. All he could do was try and mitigate the damage.

    (And if he'd wished, sometimes, that he could have been there earlier, so he could have done something, so he could have helped, well-)

    Now, there is a child in his medbay, looking up at him with wary eyes. Carefully, gently, he crouches, so as not to loom. Offers him a smile.

    "Hi, Ben."

    Or:

    It's hard to ignore your trauma when it's staring you in the face, isn't it?

    Or:

    In which Helix accidentally-on-purpose adopts a kid, Ben reckons with the future, and Qui-Gon is trying to figure out how he managed to piss off an army.

    Summary

    “We were wrong about the pollen from Cetus II not affecting him,” Bones says in an undertone. “He didn’t get his senses tangled up like the others, though. It targeted his psionic abilities.”

     

    or, Spock's telepathy gets screwed up on an away mission. Laying hands on his crewmates to train his senses back to normal is the only cure. Jim is happy to help—even if there are some feelings he'd rather keep to himself.

    Summary

    “I’m an activist, Mr. Morgan,” Merlin explains.

    “I see that,” Knight Gwaine says.

    “I want this place to exist here forever. Forever and ever and ever.”

    “You mean until King Arthur climbs out of it?”

    “Yes,” Merlin says. “But after that, too, since I’m not like, 100% positive that he’s going to know what a fish ladder is. I figure we’ve got to do some work on that and probably his English before we let him go off into the wild.”

    “Right. Obviously, the English. But what happens if someone tries to put another body in the lake while you’re here?”

    Merlin doesn’t have an answer to that.

    (Three women's bodies are dumped into a lake, and detective Gwaine Morgan is assigned the case. He does not anticipate said lake to be guarded by a local 12 year-old and is even less prepared for what happens when the 12 year-old becomes his murderer's next target.)

    Summary

    After the events on Bandomeer, Qui-Gon reiterates that he cannot train Obi-Wan, but he tells Obi-Wan he deserves to be a Jedi. Obi-Wan follows Qui-Gon back to the Temple, becomes the padawan of Councilor Mace Windu, and dedicates himself to being a padawan worthy of a master who sits on the Council and invented his own lightaber form. Along the way, he bonds with his lineage sister, Depa Billaba, gets into mischief with his best friend Quinlan, and meets the Mand'alor, Jaster Mereel.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi, unwanted child and then unwanted initiate finds himself a family that spans cultures and the galaxy. And when darkness rises up to threaten it, he defends his family with all the lessons and tricks the Force has taught him.

    What if:
    Obi-Wan Kenobi joined the Agricorps
    Jaster Mereel survived Korda VI
    Count Dooku died a few years early
    Jango Fett reached out for help to save his clones from their fate

    And then things just snowballed from there, to eventually bring us to:
    A revitalized Mandalore, possibly reviving the Mandalorian empire?
    A Jedi Order that addresses all the problems it had even before the Clone Wars get started
    Happy clones leading happy lives
    Everyone hates slavers

    The Republic sends a combat photographer to be attached to the 212th until further notice, citing the need for a morale boost. The clones make up a fake clone, citing the absolute fact that it is very funny.
    Somehow, these two things save the galaxy.

    Summary

    Dith bristled, as did old Vhriin, who sat on the table just next to them. The eyes of the old, battle marked Twi’lek flitted over to the jetiise for a second and then back to his food, but from his stiffened posture Dith knew his attention was now on them. Not that she could fault him, those children seemed… skittish, in a way that rubbed her the wrong way. Tray in hand she hovered closer, wiping off some empty tables on the side. She watched as the adult jetii, seemingly a female Cerean, sharply put down the pad with the menu on it.

    Summary

    Barely a handful of months into the war, a dozen of the 501st who have noticed their general’s tendency to tinker come to him with a request.
     
    “General,” they ask, still nervous at the idea of making a request of a Jedi, “is there any chance you could get us some droid poppers with a little more… oomph?”

    Summary

    This remarkable letter of unknown provenance surfaced recently in the cuneiform collection of the University of West Wessex. Addressed to Azirapil from a Mr. “Crawly,” it appears to be begging for the other’s return to Ur from a western journey with another individual, Abiraham. The relationship between the two (brothers? business partners? friends?) is unknown.

    There's far too much divinity in Percy Jackson. It oozes from him, to the point where he's sometimes mistaken for Poseidon. Percy doesn't know this yet. All he knows is that this nereid is asking to borrow five drachmas.

    “I think he may benefit from some cultural education with you,” Jaro explains. “He appears to have become afflicted with the ‘tweens.’”
    “Has he now?” Master Kenobi rasps.
    “He has. The hinges on our doors have never seen the likes of this.”
    “No. Cal? Really?”
    “He attempted, in the early hours yesterday morning, to liberate one of the living room floor panels from its brethren.”
    “With his hands?”
    “With his hands.

    Una traced the edges of the eagle's head with fascinated fingers. She had Honoria's eyes, a deep soft brown like well-oiled leather. He thought he could see Caol in her as well, but that might just be the eyes of a lovestruck fool playing tricks.

    "Your father loves you, I swear. He just can't bear looking at you right now. We thought we were done burying our friends, that's why it hurts so much." He sighed. "I wish I could fight the grief for him: ambush it in a mountain pass, trap it in a narrow valley, rout its infantry and trap its cavalry in a muddy river bank. But I can't. There's no army big enough for that."

    Shmi Skywalker's six-year-old son finds a man frozen in carbonite at the junkyard.
    ---

     

    Ani tugged at her sleeve. "Mom! Mom, we have to help him!"
    Shmi made a face. Carbonite was expensive. There were only two types of beings that ended up in it: dangerous captives, or criminals. On Tatooine? Most likely the latter.
    Ani looked at her with huge, sad eyes. "Moooom, you always say we ought to help each other."
    She sighed. This was what she got for trying to bring her boy up right.
