Summary
Eleven years ago, Toji Fushiguro went missing.
Eleven years later, when Kenjaku’s vessel was a hairbreadth away from sealing Satoru Gojo within the Prison Realm, something went wrong. It wasn’t empty. No one could have known. Not even Gojo and his divine amalgamation of Six Eyes and Limitless saw it coming, when the bastardized reanimation of Riko Amanai’s corpse uttered ‘kaimon’ and the gates opened to reveal Toji Fushiguro.
Suguru alive, Fushiguro a harbinger of death. Satoru Gojo, Six Eyes blinded by something he never could have imagined. -

Summary
“I mean, get your ass back down there and sleep, or you’ll never step foot out here till your brain is butter, or they dump your ashes in the ocean,” Mansk hisses. His ears flatten involuntarily. The chivalry is gone from his tone, and the warning finally clicks in Spider’s mind. He notices the rifle cradled patiently in Mansk’s arms for the first time.
He’s being offered a second chance.
“Why would I trust you?” Spider counters. Mansk shrugs.
“You shouldn’t. You start trusting people out here, people you think you know, then it all goes to shit.” There’s something else behind his words that Spider doesn’t quite understand.
Spider has to fight to keep his head above water for fear of losing himself. Hundreds of miles away, Lo'ak wrestles with the guilt of being forced to run.

Summary
The Na’vi is tall. As Jake’s eyes flit from the bow slung over her shoulders to the knife as long as his arm that she clutches in her four-fingered hand, he understands instantly at that moment that it was not out of the kindness of her heart that she intervened.
‘Thank you’ sits in his mouth, but he dares not break the heavy silence between them, and all confidence that he had dissipates the second she stands to her full height and towers over him.
Stranded, injured and alone in the jungles of Pandora, Jake is left behind. Neytiri won't make that same mistake.

Summary
Jango Fett has always pictured his cause of death to be amid the heat of battle, an honourable last stand fitting of a true Mandalorian.
Instead, he finds himself falling, falling, falling— surrounded by shards of glass and the mutilated bodies of his vod’e… his brothers. It’s almost pathetic, considering the circumstances at hand.
It could be worse, he thinks, as he plummets to the depths of Coruscant’s underworld. His head aches. The bacta patch plastered to his skull is a gutting reminder of his failure, but he would rather be damned than succumb to the idea that his enemy has already won. He still clings to a fraying thread of hope that his transmission is received before he meets his end, and with each second that passes, his fate draws nearer.
Coruscant is burning.

Summary
Altruism: Unselfish concern for the welfare of others.
He knows how much his father has sacrificed for his people— and despite the pacifist movements in Sundari waning on his patience led by those who constantly bid him to lay down arms and seek “peaceful” resolution even though they are being actively attacked, he’s remained headstrong and set on his goal; to unite Mandalore, all Mandalorians.
A selfish feeling dawns on Cody, that even though he knows what’s at stake, for his people, for Mandalore as a whole, he doesn’t care. He aches for the time when he could spend time with his father and brothers without fear of whatever follows him. He’s tired of being fully armoured and relentlessly waiting for a fight to show up on his doorstep, and now he’s being forced to run.
Tasked with protecting the Duke of Mandalore's heirs from Death Watch assassins, a young padawan on the road to knighthood embarks on a mission that will cost him everything— strength, courage, and perhaps even his status as a Jedi— in order to restore peace to a war-ridden planet... and clarity to the turmoil in his heart.

Summary
It starts with Yuuji, because just about everything starts with that idiot. They find him passed out on the couch with Gojo-Sensei, of all people, Saturday morning and well past sunrise.
Ever since, she’s seen something familiar on Gojo’s face- something she knows, deeply and intimately, but which she can’t put a name to. It’s on the tip of her tongue, balancing on soft muscle and teetering dangerously, precariously unreachable as it wobbles.
It’s been driving her insane.

Summary
Toji had been given a reset button. A mulligan. He didn't know why. He didn't know if it was a cruel joke or a clerical error in the afterlife. Maybe he was still in Shibuya, bleeding out, and this was the dying hallucination of a brain starved of oxygen. But the rag was wet in his hand. The floor was hard against his spine. The kid was warm against his leg.
If this was a dream, it was too vivid. If it was a second chance, it was a heavy one.
His gaze returned to the mountain of trash bags. It was a monument to his life: piled up, rotting, ignored, and uselessly stinking up the place. He’d treated his existence like a hand of cards he was waiting to fold.
"Alright," he whispered to the empty, filthy room. "Fine."
