the better son.

Summary:

Organa flexes his hands.

“I promised him I would not give away his location,” he says. “Even to other jedi.”

“He’s alive,” Quinlan says.

“I don’t know. The last contact we had was years ago.”

“Don’t lie to me, Senator.”

“I am not lying,” Organa says.

“You’d throw your favorite knight to the wind?” Quinlan asks.

“It was his decision,” Organa says, “I’ve offered him refuge countless times, but as I am sure you are aware, he is the most stubborn man I’ve ever met.”

Well, yes. That’s exactly why Quinlan can’t get enough of him.

(Quinlan's lived a lot of life since Order 66; he's moved a lot of people, found and lost love, and ultimately fallen into a rut. Unsure how to move forward, he encounters a force-signature to leads him to the wastelands of Tatooine.)

  1. 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.)

  2. Summary

    Obi-Wan is nothing if he is not a human sheepdog for children. Anakin finds him after he’s rounded up all the padawans on board the Negotiator and stuffed them into a supply hold. He hasn’t started any games with them; he’s not offering instruction. He simply must have the youth in his sights at all times or else he will go into cardiac arrest.

    (Senior Negotiator Anakin Skywalker is trying to win this war by whatever means necessary when a wrench crashes into his plans in the shape of his childhood rival, Crèchemaster Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan, meanwhile, intends to do everything in his power to keep Anakin away from his kids, war or no war.)

    Summary

    Anthology containing:

    too few for the coffin

    “I found a sith,” Qui-Gon says over the crackle of the vessel's comms.
    There is silence.
    “A sith?” Plo repeats.
    “Correct.”
    “What kind of sith?”
    Qui-Gon pauses again; this time, Plo can imagine him looking thoughtfully over his broad shoulder.
    “A little one,” he finally answers.

    (AU where Qui-Gon brings both Obi-Wan and a young Maul back with him from Bandomeer, and Master Plo Koon trips and falls into taking on an unexpected apprentice.)


    thunderlined boots

    “Whatever you think you know about the sith, you should divest yourself of now,” Maul says to the craft’s domed windshield. “What they crave is power and getting it from the ribs of a mouse or the heart of a man makes no difference in that addiction.”

    Wolffe cocks a hip. He’s not sure what it is about Maul’s presence that makes him feel so bold to cop an attitude like this, but it’s a little heady and very relaxing.

    “We’ll be sure to shove you out in front then,” he says. “Don’t zabraks have two hearts?”

    (Jedi Maul AU - Maul joins the war effort to hunt down the Sith who destroyed his family. Plo, out of the kindness of his heart, introduces him to Commander Wolffe who becomes his unhappy conspirator in the quest to bring down Darth Sidious--but first they have to find him.)


    the sound of knocking reverberated

    There are troopers and guards everywhere in the Galactic City, and Plo is regrettably a celebrity among the general populace now. Getting out of the Temple unseen is not difficult when one is friends with a man unafraid to pull a fire alarm lever but getting across the city to the GAR base proves to be a much greater obstacle.

    Thankfully, there are people like Jackal, who see him coming from a mile away and who call their brothers over.

    They give Plo a helmet.

    He is very tall for a clone trooper.

    (Maul vanishes in the wake of the Chancellor's death. Plo sets out to find him to demand answers and, he hopes with all his heart, to bring him back home.)

  4. Summary

    “When the cottage is done, if you want to go home, we will tell the Council that you want to,” Qui-Gon says at the inn's ceiling. “But you have to promise me that you will try some Stewjoni things. They will want to see that you’ve tried to participate in the culture, Obi-Wan.”

    “I don’t want to," Obi-Wan snaps.

    (As part of their mutual probation period after Melida/Daan, the council sends Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to the town of Coan-Connach on Stewjon, so that Obi-Wan can decide if he wants to continue with on the path to become a jedi or if he would like to return to his family. Coan-Connach, however, is a small town struggling to keep up its idyllic facade).

  5. Summary

    “They must receive an allowance from the Order,” Kote said.

    “How much, then?” Rex asked up at him.

    Kote tipped his head and just stared into Rex’s eyes endlessly, the way he did when people asked him questions that made him want to swallow them whole with their own ignorance.

    “No way of knowing without intrusive measures,” he determined.

    “We gotta ask one,” Bly translated for Rex.

    (The troopers make a discovery of the fiscal variety, which causes them to realize that they may have more in common with the jedi than they previously thought.)
