    Summary

    The year is 1930, Prohibition and the Depression are both in full swing, and Chicago Police Detective Steve Rogers has his hands full. There's a dead body on the banks of Lake Michigan, the entire city's legal system is corrupt, and the king gangster of the North Side, Tony Stark, has taken more than a passing interest in him.

    Summary

    “Yes, Lord Stark has come to town to help his mother bring out his eldest sister,” Tyrion said, pouring Jaime a glass of wine. “I understand he also plans to take his seat in the House of the Law. His uncle Edmure has been gathering time for him to give his maiden speech.”

    “Yes, yes,” Jaime said irritably. “That’s not what matters and you know it. Well?”

    Tyrion sighed. “He's nineteen, well-favored, and as far as I know, neither demented nor stupid. And not a hint of a betrothal. Sorry.”

    There was very little hope to be found within the Darkmount cell. What there was, Optimus clung to, for as long as he could.

    Summary

    To his unbridled horror, Wei Wuxian sees his face up on the giant screen in real time for the entire stadium to see. Still laughing as his face takes a moment to catch up with the sheer mortification he’s feeling, A-Yuan perched on his shoulders as the Lan Wangji cape drapes over them.

    There’s also commentary.

    “—scenes from the stands here, this dad and his son making for an adorable twosome all decked out in support for local hero Lan Wangji—”

    “—Speaking of, our man seems to have taken a little tumble—”

    Wei Wuxian finds Lan Wangji on the field. The ball is nowhere near him but he seems to have fallen inexplicably backwards, sitting on the grass as he looks up at the giant screen.

    Right up at the footage of him.

    (AU where A-Yuan is professional footballer Lan Wangji's biggest fan, and his babysitter Wei Wuxian wants nothing more than to forget his days as the photographer of their school football team, calling out to the captain from the stands just so he'd look around at him.)

    Summary

    “Are you the Jedi?” the Mandalorian asked, his helmet tilting in assessment. Mandalore’s sun glinted brightly off the beskar, making the armor almost glow. Luke was surprised to realize how well that image complemented the man’s muted Force signature.

    “Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight,” Luke bowed, remembering his manners, “On behalf of the Council, we were honored to receive your invitation.”

    -
    Mandalore requests a teacher for their growing population of Force-sensitives and the Jedi Council sends Luke.
