    Summary

    There’s probably a reasonable explanation as to why Mara keeps ending up in Luke’s orbit. It’s fine – really. But even she has to admit the Force seems unusually invested in her sleeping arrangements.

    Maybe it’s time she starts listening to it.

    Or: Five times Luke and Mara share a bed, and the one time they don’t.

    Summary

    "The Dai Bendu language was spoken by the members of the ancient Order of Dai Bendu on the frozen planet of Ando Prime. The name of the Je'daii Order was forged in that language."

    "Every language is like a one-of-a-kind species. It captures unique conceptualizations of the world and has its own ways of constructing words, phrases and sentences for communicating ideas. As we compare the words and structures of various languages, we come to a greater understanding of our world. (...) Language captures how we perceive the world around us and how we relate to one another, it defines who we are. The Mother tongue language we grow up with is the one used to express what is in our hearts; our heart language."

    "Studying language is invaluable for learning about other cultures and mapping their respective developments, histories, myths, customs, etc. Linguistics also helps us understand and document geographical /environmental influences, periods of migration/diaspora, origin of certain spiritual beliefs, etc. through the study of things like cognates, shared myths between cultures, language families, and tracking differences in word usage and dialects over a long period of time."

    Anthology containing:

    Heart Language by aroacejoot & ghostwriterofthemachine & loosingletters

    Notes on the Jedi Conlang Dai Bendu developed by Yours Truly for the sake of incorporating linguistics into Star Wars.
    Includes grammar, meta essays on the language and translations of canon dialogues.

    An Imprecise Translation {ben} by ghostwriterofthemachine

    Dai Bendu is the language of the Jedi.

    Here are four times Obi-Wan Kenobi has heard the word ben.

    A Befitting Title {kanan} by loosingletters

    Dai Bendu is the language of the Jedi.

    Here are four times Caleb Dume heard the word kanan.

    Levels of Sincerity {cahshee, ankai'a} by loosingletters

    In which Ahsoka Tano has the most embarrassing Masters in at least two languages.

    Terms of endearment, Disaster Lineage Style.

    Connotations {orhma, Anohrah} by ghostwriterofthemachine

    Anakin’s Padawan is strong and brave and fierce and he has every faith in her abilities. He’s known from the beginning that she would fight her way back to him, Trandoshans or no. He’s known from the beginning, on some level, that he would see her again.


    Or, the aftermath of the Padawan Lost arc, but Anakin and Ahsoka have more words to speak in.

    Acceptance {padawanir, jaieh'ir} by loosingletters

    As a Jedi, you had to formally accept your new apprentice and your new Master.

    Obi-Wan, Anakin and Ahsoka from the beginning of their apprenticeships to their ends.

    Insult and Injury {imkai'an} by ghostwriterofthemachine & loosingletters

    The worst thing you can call someone in Mando’a is coward. The worst insult to the Jedi is one they dare not speak often.

    Five times Anakin Skywalker heard it regardless.

    Reassurance {enoji brei ormah} by loosingletters

    There are days where Ahsoka Tano is the Commander of the 501st battalion, and then there are days where she is Anakin Skywalker's fourteen-year-old Padawan, stuck in the aftermath of a bloody battle, surrounded by the dead.

    Or, Anakin sings to Ahsoka.

    Purest Expression of Grief {haj dai} by ghostwriterofthemachine

    Order 66 happens.

    Cal goes quiet, Kanan thinks too much, and Ahsoka can never go back.

    (Or; three children and a dying language, after they've seen their people die.)

    immersion theory {oola} by ghostwriterofthemachine & loosingletters

    Immersion Theory: When it comes to language learning, immersion usually means learning a new language in the most natural way possible – in practice, being in a situation where the language is spoken.

    Or, five times the Clones stumble over Dai Bendu and one time they don’t.

    A Discussion of the Coruscant Centralization in the light of delo anohrah by loosingletters

    In order to lessen the chance of a Sith resurgence, the Order began training children from birth. In addition, the training of Padawans was centralized on Coruscant, to remove the danger of unsupervised students delving into forbidden Sith knowledge. - Wookiepedia on the Ruusan Reformation

    When asked to abandon their temples and move to Coruscant, many Jedi protest. The essay "A Discussions of the Coruscant Centralization in the light of delo anohrah" became well-known for advocating in favor of the Coruscant Centralization.

    [Or, in-universe essay on the Ruusan Reformation from the perspective of a Jedi Master.]

    Snapshots {ibli nev zahlah} by aroacejoot & ghostwriterofthemachine & loosingletters

    Snapshots in the life of the Jedi, centered around certain words in their language.

    Retranslation of the Sith Code from a Linguistic Perspective by loosingletters

    While Mando’a is undoubtedly the conlang with the most extensive vocabulary, it is not the soundest Star Wars conlang from a linguistic perspective. That honor belongs to the version of the Sith conlang that was later amended and developed by Ben Grossblatt. The Sith Code, as we know it, was developed by David Gaider in 2003 for the game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Grossblatt’s conlang was created seven years later in 2010.

    When you consider this, Grossblatt had two options when creating his conlang and translation of the Code. He could translate the Code from English into Sith, or he could pretend the English (or “Basic”) version of the Code resulted from a translation from Sith.

    TLDR: I took a look at the English version of the Sith Code and decided it doesn't quite pick up all the nuances the text has in the Sith conlang and proceeded to write 3.000 words analyzing it.

    Summary

    Once upon a time, I started writing a time travel AU in which Anakin Skywalker ended up in 51 ABY, met his grandchildren, and dealt with his own dark legacy while helping the remaining Jedi in their struggle against a new Sith Empire. It was supposed to just be that one story - and then my brain decided to do a thing, and oops, look at that, I have a whole 'verse now.

    These stories do not need to be read in any particular order, and I like to think you can start with any of them. They're currently listed in the order they were posted.

    There's a bit of everything here: drama, action, angst (okay, more than a bit of angst), romance (often dark, but not always), horror (mostly of the psychological variety), introspection, and even some humor. There are also a fair number of original characters, but that's sort of necessary when you're operating 50-60 years after ANH. Hopefully you'll find something to enjoy, and maybe even come back for more. ;)

    (If you're interested in the various AUs of this 'verse, including the one where Anakin didn't turn to the dark side, see my sister series, Enter!verse AUs)

    Anthology containing:

    Enter the Foreign

    Just before his fateful turn to the dark side, Anakin Skywalker is transported 70 years into the future, where he meets the ragtag remainder of the Jedi Order and becomes engulfed in their struggle against the new Sith Empire. Leading this fractured band of Jedi is Anakin’s grandson, Ben Skywalker, a young Knight still haunted by the deaths of his loved ones and by the betrayal of his former master, Darth Caedus.

    But the One Sith have not been idle in the years following the defeat of Caedus. Previously hidden in the shadows, they now stand on the brink of galactic domination, led there by the powerful and enigmatic Darth Krayt. As the two sides hurtle toward a final confrontation, will Anakin be able to separate himself from the shadow of Darth Vader? Or is it simply a matter of destiny – perhaps even the will of the Force – that the Chosen One and his scions should fall…?

    Timeframe: 51 ABY

    The Lands of the Dead

    When two brothers are kidnapped by the Sith, they fight to survive and eventually come to a grim realization: their old lives are gone, the bright fields of day forever past. There are no Jedi here.

    Alternate universe, 43-49 ABY. POV original character, descent into darkness. Features Sith OCs & Jacen Solo (Darth Caedus).

    Prequel to Enter the Foreign, but can be read as a standalone.

    Where the Waves Shatter

    Feelings are hard, especially for a not-quite-former Sith Lord.

    Or,
    Darth Festus and Allana Djo Solo face off in combat for the first time since Vjun.

    Alternate universe, 54 ABY, one-shot, angst, unrequited love, POV original character.

    Inspired by Pablo Neruda's Sonnet IX

    What If This Storm Ends?

    Five times Darth Festus definitely wasn’t in love with a Jedi princess, and one time she definitely wasn’t in love with him.

    Alternate universe, 43-61 ABY, one-shot, angst, denial of feelings, mostly unrequited love.

    Here There Be Monsters

    Several months after earning a place among the Sith initiates, fourteen-year-old Dorian Starskip encounters monsters on the grave world of Korriban. One tries to eat him, one is possibly mentoring him, and a few just really hate his guts. Which of these is most to be feared?

    Alternate universe, 47 ABY, one-shot, introspection, angst, action, descent into darkness. POV original character & POV Jacen Solo.

    HK-47 and the Super Evil Chaos Twins of Evil

    Darth Ferrus asks his brother to buy a maintenance droid for their ship, but Darth Festus has a slightly different idea. Snark, hilarity, and attempted murder ensue.

    Alternate universe, approx. 52-53 ABY, one-shot, humor, brothers being brothers, HK-47 being amazing. POV original character.

    Somewhat of a crack!fic done for amusement and as a challenge response.

    Forces of Gravity

    No matter how hard you fight it, gravity always wins.

    Or,
    Allana Djo Solo is supposed to protect a guy, and Darth Festus is supposed to kill him. This is probably not going to end well.

    Alternate universe, 55 ABY, one-shot, drama, introspection, unrequited love, action, angst.

    In Dreams We Dwell

    After finishing up an assignment on the idyllic planet Kurin, Jedi Knight Allana Djo finds herself attending a lavish masquerade ball… and dealing with a dangerous uninvited guest.

    Alternate universe, 59 ABY, romance, drama, denial of feelings, ust.

    a vignette/ficlet/drabble collection written in response to the JCF 2021 Fanfic Olympics

    Thunderbolt and Lightning

    A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, there lived a pair of twins. Nope, not those twins. Or those ones either.

    a vignette/ficlet/drabble collection written in response to the JCF 2021 Fanfic Olympics

    Our Weakness Is the Same

    She can't escape his orbit, and he can't escape hers.

    Or,
    Allana Djo Solo and Darth Festus spend ten years trying to kill each other and/or falling in love, maybe.

    alternate universe, 43-61 ABY

    a vignette/ficlet/drabble collection written in response to the JCF 2021 Fanfic Olympics

    Turn Ourselves Into These Ashes

    In the wake of their humiliating defeat on Vjun, Darth Festus and Darth Ferrus lead a surprise attack on a hidden Jedi enclave.

    Alternate universe, 51 ABY, one-shot, angst, introspection, some psychological horror. Missing moment from Enter the Foreign.

    Metamorphosis

    Jacen Solo has had plenty of time to think.

    He thinks about being a student. About being a teacher.

    Being a Jedi, and a Sith, and a traitor.

    Most of all, though, he thinks about being a shadowmoth.

    *alternate universe, 47 ABY, Jacen, Vergere, introspection, one-shot*

    Beneath the Gods of the Bright Sky

    Problem child, worthless Jedi brat, dumb brute… Veeran Starskip has been called a lot of things in his life, but there's one name he'll make sure they never forget.

    alternate universe, 41-49 ABY, drama, coming-of-age, descent into darkness; features Sith OCs and Jacen Solo (Darth Caedus)

    Lover, Hunter, Friend, and Enemy

    Nothing's fair in love and war.

    alternate universes, 43-61 ABY, romance, angst, drama

    Summary

    Our fourth anthology is a collection of romantic, trope-heavy Drarry fanfics written for Valentine’s Day. Since we believe there can never be too much romance in the world, this time we let ourselves get inspired by the spirit of Valentine’s Day. With this holiday’s romantic vibe as our guide, and boosted by a hefty list of common and much-loved Drarry tropes, we’ve created a brand new anthology intended to warm your hearts on this love-crazed weekend.

    We give you seven one-shots filled with love and romance, fluff, hurt/comfort, and, yeah, a bit of angst too (because some of us just can’t help themselves) — forced proximity, only one bed, 5+1, fake dating, blind dating, bets and wagers, deities, soulmates, party games, intoxication, fantasy fulfilment — this anthology has it all.

    Anthology containing:

    5 + 1 | Promise I’ll Be the Cure by Janieohio

    Through the years, Harry finds himself growing closer to Draco, eventually becoming friends. If only Harry could figure out why every time he needs somebody, Draco’s the one who's there.

    -or-

    Five times Draco takes care of Harry, and the one time Harry figures out why.

    Only One Bed | Plants, Pastries, and Potter by EvAEleanor

    Draco is sure that not much can go wrong with him helping Neville out. It’s only for three days, after all. Then, he hadn’t thought to bring Neville’s gorgeous neighbour into the calculation.

    Secret Admirer | Lover In the Dream by susabei

    Draco works at a museum cultivating highly ancient pieces of art with Pansy, ex-girlfriend and best friend. Newly unearthed treasures are sent to them both in their little lab where they clean up the manuscripts, slates, and statues of old gods and old religions. It’s a good job, if not lonely at times.

    And then Draco starts to dream about one of the gods: Harry.

    Soulmates | Two Sides Of The Same Soul by Ladderofyears

    Draco's magic and lifeforce is slowly draining away, the result of his denied bond with colleague Harry Potter, and when Draco is hit with a Crucio it nearly proves fatal. With Draco in a coma at St Mungo's, can Auror Harry Potter save Draco's life once more?

    Party Games | There's No I In Team by Drarrymadhatter

    It’s the Ministry’s Interdepartmental Team Building Day, and Harry Potter finds himself in a team with Draco Malfoy. They’re forced to participate in team-building exercises, where they learn about each other’s demons and how to care for someone you thought you hated.

    Intoxication | Comfort Rekindled by JessicaDoom

    Draco couldn't think of a more pathetic way to be spending Valentine's Day than suffering through a blind date. Okay, perhaps there were worse ways — spending it alone, fist-deep in a box of discount chocolates, for one — but for Draco, this was an all-time low. Especially after coming so close to having something real and permanent the year before.

    Not that he was thinking about that any longer….

    It's been nine months since Draco Malfoy broke things off with Harry Potter, which is certainly long enough to move on, right? But in order to do so, he'd have to actually want to get over Potter and what they used to have.

    This work is a sequel to the fic Herbology | Cultivated Comfort. It is suggested that they be read in order for maximum enjoyment.

    Fake Dating | The Malfoy Crash Course in Dating Excellence by Drarrelie

    Harry sucks at dating. Malfoy is a dating whizz. Hermione suggests the perfect solution.

    Or, how Harry Potter finally learned how to date like a pro.

    Summary

    Anthology containing:

    Play Crack the Sky

    Excerpt from “Hale Pulls the Plug on the Future of Rock,” Rolling Stone, Issue 1203 – Oct. 2014
    “Fans and music industry vets alike are left reeling in the wake of bassist Derek Hale’s sudden departure from Smokes for Harris. At a time when the foursome from Beacon Hills, California seems to be on the cusp of rock superstardom after just one double platinum record, Smokes has everything to lose.”

    Excerpt from “Smokes for Harris: Gladiator,” SPIN.com – Feb. 2015
    “Smokes for Harris gives in a little to the pop punk of yesteryear in their sophomore effort, but rather than pandering to fans of a lost era they elevate the genre in a way that hasn’t been seen in quite some time. Frontman Stiles Stilinski works double duty as singer and primary songwriter and proves that he can handle the task even without former bassist Derek Hale."

    Inches and Falling

    She smiles at Scott just like she smiles at everyone else, but Scott’s the only one on the tour bus who can’t breathe right for minutes afterward. Probably. Most likely.

    Sowing Season

    Just a bunch of kids doing teenage stuff: starting bands and terrorizing teachers and hurting like hell and falling for each other. The usual.

    Summary

    Stories about the 4 Robins - Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian - and their brotherly (gen) love.

    Anthology containing:

    Bird by Bird by laceymcbain

    Bullets, knives, a three story fall, even a fucking crowbar hadn't managed to keep Jason down permanently, but Dick Grayson (and the rest of his "family") was going to kill him with kindness.

    Incident, Coincidence, Pattern by laceymcbain & reena_jenkins

    "If once is an incident, twice is coincidence, and three times is a pattern, what's four?" Tim asked.

    "A mistake," Jason said between clenched teeth. "A big mistake."

    Five Times Jason Todd Saved His Brothers, and One Time They Saved Him by laceymcbain & reena_jenkins

    “Did you know I was in here, or did you just blow up the place for fun?”

    Damian didn't need to see Todd's face to know he was grinning under the helmet.

    “It's not really a rescue unless something blows up. But if Bats asks, it was completely necessary."
