    Summary

    I found the room in the facility easily enough. It was one of many. Identical little cells with a bed pushed against one wall and hygiene equipment against the other.

    There was no one else being held here. I made sure. Leaving some poor fuck here to die of starvation or run out of power was not something I intended to do. It could hold maybe twenty-five in total, but it honestly looked like it was on its way to being decommissioned.

    That was probably why they'd stashed Gurathin here. They didn't think that Preservation Alliance would even know where to look.

    Luckily, Preservation Alliance had me.

     

    Written in response to the mention in Network Effect of drugged augmented humans, and subsequent discussions in New Tideland.

    Summary

    An offer to join them at Summerhall seems like all Dunk had ever dreamed of, yet he can't help but feel trepidation thanks to his desire to be a hedge knight and the discomfort between him and Maeker. Despite his better judgement, Dunk agrees, only to find the man who was ready to have his head as his reluctant trainer.

    Or, an AU where everyone lives, Dunk agrees to go to Summerhall and he finds love with my favorite grumpy Targeryen.

    Summary

    Their planetary survey turns deadly when Preservation's team discovers they're being hunted. Stranded with their transport destroyed and their SecUnit critically damaged, they must survive corporate conspiracies and combat units while racing against time. As their protector burns itself out keeping them alive, the crew begins to see it—him—in a new light. But someone wants them dead, and their SecUnit might not survive long enough to find out who.

    Summary

    This is not the best case scenario. But it could have been worse.

    A series of standalone fics taking place in a world where Murderbot did not get its memories back and ended up going to Preservation with six sad humans, a couple days worth of traumatic life experience, and very confused organic parts.

    Summary

    A collection of my works where Gurathin has more augments than the two mentioned in the books concealed under a counter-scanning implant from his time in the Corporation Rim. Loosely non-sequential, can be read in any order.

    An unfortunate error caused PreservationAux to start their survey late, and Murderbot found itself rented by a different survey crew. It ended up on the same shitty planet anyway.

    Summary

    Piett may have been the Admiral of the largest and most fearsome fleet of warships the galaxy had ever seen, but he was only one man. And one man could not change the fate of the galaxy.

    No matter how many chances the galaxy gave him.

     

    (Or, Piett and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad Battle of Endor.)

    Summary

    NOT ABANDONED. I'm just struggling with inspiration at the moment!

    Anakin Skywalker never left Tatooine. Qui-Gon Jinn never died. Padme and Obi-Wan never met Anakin. The Clone Wars began anyway.

    This is the story of a wildly Force sensitive Anakin who wants nothing to do with the Jedi and who is immediately assumed to be a Sith. This is the story of a slavery hating Padme who has to choose between the Republic and what's right. This is the story of a conflicted Obi-Wan who comes head to head with the Jedi Order's flaws and mistakes. This is the story of a living Qui-Gon Jinn who has to come to grips with his part in all that has gone wrong.

    This is the story of how the Clone Wars end.

    Rated M only because of violence and mature themes (noted in the tags or in chapter notes).

    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.)

    This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work". While I've included the actual coding in bold and italic once you click "Hide Creator's Style", there's a more detailed explanation here.

    EDIT 6/28/17: The third chapter now shows how to use anchor links as an index/table of contents.

    Summary

    It's raining Mandalorians?

    At least that's what goes through Feemor's head when he, rather unexpectedly, finds himself with an armful of mandalorian child during one of his routine patrols around the Temple entrance's perimeter.

    In which Feemor saves a mandalorian child's life rather on accident, but now he seems to have earned the unwavering interest (and loyalty?) of three curious little shadows. The other Temple Guards think it's adorable, Cin Drallig is concerned for their internal security and the adult Mandalorians are having... mixed feelings about this all, to say the least.

    Summary

    Fox dies.

    Except he doesn’t, because as soon as the creepy Sith ritual drains the last of the blood from his body, he wakes up…somewhere. Somewhere else, where, for once, he can’t feel the Emperor’s claws digging into his head every hour of the cycle.

    Unfortunately, this somewhere else is so deep in the middle of nowhere that he gets picked up by a mandalorian—some asshole called Montross who quickly proves that he’d be more helpful dead, especially once Fox finds out that this shabuir wants to sell him off to the Kyr’tsad. In a final bid for freedom, Fox disposes of his would-be captor, commandeers his ship, and goes on the run from the man’s terrorist Kyr’tsad friends and his weird Haat Mando’ad coworkers.

    …until the weird coworkers finally catch up to Fox.

    Or: upon his death, Fox is thrown several decades into the past, lands in Mandalore’s backyard, gets himself adopted, and (mostly intentionally) alters the course of the galaxy.

    Oh, and he isn’t the only vod to get tossed through time and space.

    Summary

    Obi-Wan is a delta. He made his peace with that a long time ago. There’s still plenty of good he can do as part of the Intelligence Corps. Even if that good brings more than his fair share of the bad with it. He’s content, as content as he can be, with his lot in life.

    Then the RID assigns him to post on one of the GAR’s flagships. He’s never been around so many people, been so close to a pack ever in his life. So close to what he wants. What he’ll never be allowed to have.

    Summary

    Maul dies on Tatooine and wakes up over 40 years in the past. He quickly seizes the opportunity to change his fate and free himself from his Master, to save his brothers, including the one he doesn't yet know he has, and plot a new revenge against Darth Sidious with the advantages of time, foreknowledge and a surprisingly familiar Mandalorian face. It isn't only his own destiny that Maul's actions will change for the better, but that of Jango Fett and the entire Mandalorian people.

    As far as the Force and the Ka'ra are concerned, healing hearts through the power of family and friendship will just be a nice side effect of saving the galaxy from its terrible future.

    Summary

    Pale gold eyes watch him quietly, but there’s no sneering malice, no delighted calculation. If anything, he looks… tired. Preoccupied. As if Jango is more of a trial to pass than a helpless prisoner to toy with.
