    Summary

    New York City, 1936. A thousand dollars in cash slides under the door of private investigator Ben Reilly's office along with a folder of photographs and an instruction to shadow Duke Ellington's piano work for three weeks at the Congo Room. By the end of the first week, Sergeant Jefferson Davis Morales of the Twenty-Eighth Precinct is dead in the doorway, an assassin in a white suit has stepped through a hole in the air, and a fifteen-year-old boy named Miles Morales has walked up four flights of stairs to ask the Spider, though he does not yet know that is who he is asking, to find his father's killer.

    Summary

    The Hail Mary is on its way to Erid when an asteroid field appears from nowhere and destroys the port thruster. Ryland Grace is fairly certain he hallucinated the space whales. Rocky is fairly certain Grace needs to sleep more. On the other side of a hyperspace jump, The Mandalorian and his son are about to find out that the Force has opinions about where you go next. In the space between galaxies, two ships find each other. Stranded spacefarers' shenanigans ensue.

    Meanwhile, Bo-Katan Kryze is going to find her husband and son and shoot anyone who gets in her way.

    Summary

    Skeletor keeps an anonymous blog about the indignities of working at Grayskull Industries: the usurper son of the CEO, the head of security who could bench-press a filing cabinet, and the coworker who will not, under any threat or treaty, stop leaving him love notes. The blog gets popular. Popular enough that the scam bots find it. They are, Skeletor notes, the only suitors he has ever found tolerable, because at least they want his money and not his heart.

    An aromantic, asexual menace addresses the void, and discovers the void has been reading him this whole time.

    Set in a modern, no-magic AU of the 2026 film. Skeletor is aromantic and asexual, and that is load-bearing, not incidental. Written for the writing prompt: an aro character whose blog gets popular enough to attract scam bots.

    Summary

    Two months after The Quiet Between Us. The courtship is slow, deliberate, conducted in council rooms and palace rooftops, and one quiet supper that went longer than either of them had planned. Then the road calls again: a rumor of Adora in the east, necromantic trouble in the Marrowback borderlands, and a detour north to see an old woman who knew Adam before he knew himself. Four weeks. The same shape as before, only closer.

    Sequel to The Quiet Between Us.

    Summary

    Ner Dar'yaim is Mando'a for "my safe harbor." It is what the people of Mandalore name the city that grows, across five centuries, from a single foundling, the man who chose to keep him, and the woman who re-united Mandalore’s clans. Din Grogu of Clan Nite Mudhorn would live longer still - long enough to bury his parents, raise a city's worth of children, fight a war, and become the kind of permanent, patient thing that whole generations measure themselves against. A story told in centuries: how a child became a patriarch, how a patriarch became a legend, and how a legend finally came home.

    Summary

    Din Djarin missed a check-in. That is the only reason Bo-Katan Kryze, Lady of Kalevala and reigning Mand'alor, ends up dropping into the gladiator pit of a Shakari crime lord with the Darksaber lit and a very pointed remark about communication discipline ready on her tongue. The fight should have been routine. The ancient device Crime Lord Janu throws into the sand before he runs is not. Thirty-two years in the past, the arena of Geonosis is about to be reshaped by four people who never belonged there.

    Summary

    A detour through the mountain town of Veldtmark brings the party face to face with an old wizard who begs a favor, a young witch who hides more than she shows, and a tome full of the most impractical and quietly miraculous spells Frieren has ever read. Our heroic trio meets the wizened old Wizard Rigoberto and his quiet apprentice, Sofia, who only knows one spell, "Fix It." It turns out that is more than enough.

    Summary

    Bo-Katan Kryze had six shots in her. Two were Corellian whiskey, nursed slowly over the course of an evening spent sitting on the cabin's front step watching the Nevarro sky bruise from amber to violet. Three were bacta, administered by Din's steady hands after the Concordia mission, their healing warmth still faintly detectable beneath the new skin that had knitted itself over her forearm. And one was a memory; old, jagged, buried so deep beneath layers of armor and duty and years that she had almost convinced herself it had calcified into something inert.

    On a night like this, she was feeling all of them.

    Summary

    A companion piece to "Half-Lives." Snapshots from the years the main story did not have time to hold: the small talk that happened in the dark after Eva and Ryland were done with the bigger things, the years Eva spent in a French cell with only memory for warmth, the first quiet months when Grace tried to explain Eva to Rocky in the long transit after the Taumeba, and the afternoon Eva sat down at sixty-eight years old to write a letter to a man she would never see again. Note: there is one chapter with smut.

    Must read "Half-Lives" first.

    Summary

    In the weeks after Mandalore is reclaimed, Bo-Katan Kryze is buried under the weight of a planet she has only just learned how to lead. Din Djarin pulls her off-world on a bounty job that should be simple. Hoth, of course, is never simple. Forced into the close dark of an ice cave, then into the customs of a matriarchal scavenger covert who assume rather a lot about them, Din and Bo learn that the long way home is sometimes the only way home. A/N: Inspired by a Tumblr prompt by @Jupiter-Awakens.

    Summary

    The thing about Eva Stratt is that she does not pretend, and that is the closest thing to tenderness Ryland Grace has ever known. The thing about Rocky is that he cannot pretend, and that is closer to love than Grace had thought himself capable of holding.

    Two friendships, two species, two kinds of quiet. Set during the pre-launch years and the long resident decades on Erid. Inspired by Project Hail Mary (2026) film.

    Summary

    Peter Parker has a new family, a new home, and senses sharp enough to hear every heartbeat in the house. Most of the time, that's a comfort. Sometimes, it's a reminder of everything he's lost.

    Title from "Heartbeat on My Mind" by Johnny Knox, a must-listen!
