    Summary

    “Great, you’re in,” the Jedi says. “Welcome to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Mrs. Lars. Your quarters and uniform will be assigned to you shortly. Padawan Skeft will be here to escort you, please wait on the other side of this door.”
    Shmi stands and nearly tumbles over herself.
    “That’s it?” She asks, straightening her dress and bag.
    The Jedi sniffs.
    “That’s it,” they says. “You can—“
    “I thought it would be more difficult to persuade you,” Shmi says.
    “Ma’am,” the Jedi sighs, “We are an equal opportunity employer. Through the door, please.”

    (Shmi Skywalker is assaulted by too-real visions of her grandson in pain in the future. She gets a job at the Jedi Temple in order to prevent that from happening and soon after finds herself on a warship.)

    Summary

    High Republic time-travel crossover with Clone Wars. Takes place during “The Rising Storm.”

    When an overzealous scholar presenting his project at the Republic Fair on Valo attempts to show off his latest breakthrough—the ability to look forward through time—he accidentally pulls soldiers and Jedi from over 200 years in the future out of the battlefield and back through time.

    (Not very canon compliant to the Clone Wars TV show)

    Summary

    Lani slid the mocha to Dormé, then picked up her own mug, a gift that Thorn had managed to procure despite their ‘non-pay’ status. It’s Hard Being This Brew-tiful. She smiled at it, allowing the warmth of his affection to overcome her disgust for Dormé’s shitty boyfriend.

    Dormé chuckled faintly. “That would be a sight. By the way, did they ever catch the sleemo who left that pile of dead womp rats at your door?”

    In which a determined cafe owner's strong opinions on the treatment of sentients reaches all the right ears.

    Summary

    “I—,” Brigitte stuttered, feeling Anran’s fingers rubbing back and forth against the landscape of her waist. “We shouldn’t,” she said quietly, in a borderline gasp as Anran slid two fingers underneath the elastic band of the woman's fire pants. In the locker room of their station? It was foolish at best and catastrophically stupid at worst. Anran, still cradling her jaw, gently tilted Brigitte’s head downwards to make up for the height gap.

    “I know,” the paler woman sighed, pushing herself up on the balls of her heels. She brushed her lips against Brigitte’s, inhaling her scent—she smelled like metal, cinnamon, and smoke.

    “But I just don’t care.”

    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?
