Summary
After joining the rebellion, Kallus’ life changed for the better. On Yavin, he found a cause truly worth fighting for, people he cared about, and a position inside Intelligence where his skills were put to good use. Things were good. He had no desire to change any of it.
Only, it seemed that change had simply been waiting for him.
Strange things began to happen around Kallus. Things that didn’t make sense. Things that shouldn’t be possible. But as there were more important things to focus on, he rationalized it all away and pushed it out of his mind. This held true until the moment he watched Zeb about to die at the hands of the Empire, prompting Kallus to somehow do the impossible - and without meaning to, taking his first stumbling steps down a path he never would have believed was meant for a man like him.
He had a bad feeling about this.
Complete story. New chapter every Saturday.

Summary
“I get that you're difficult by nature,” Akuna says, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor of Cal's cell next to him like they're not interrogator and prisoner, but just casual acquaintances hanging out. He cracks open his own bottle of water and takes a sip, then continues, “or Lank wouldn't be losing more of his hair trying to break you. But when I tell you to drink, you gotta drink, Kestis.”
Cal snorts. “What,” he croaks, “I have to get better so you can be the one to break me instead?”
Akuna pauses for a moment, then shrugs and nods. “Pretty much.”
-
Cal’s been stuck in ISB custody for a while now and he refuses to give them any information on Cere's location. Agent Akuna’s been tasked with fixing that.

Summary
Adult Badass Cal Kestis travels back in time to the Clone Wars and causes absolute chaos.
The thing is, when you slow something enough, eventually it stops.
Then it reverses.
Combine that with the most powerful teleportation spell the galaxy had ever seen.
Well, the Force didn’t know why they were so surprised they got the results they did.
Maybe this time balance would be found. Maybe the Force’s new champion was a better selection than last time. One can always hope.

Summary
Some would call it terrible timing. Some would call it providence. It really all depended on who you asked. And who was to say it couldn’t be both, from a certain point of view?
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away when Luke Skywalker is found by his father, the course of his life changes forever and so does the galaxy. Vader knows his son will never be safe as long as Palpatine sits on the throne, so thus it begins, and all is as the Force wills with a new adventure of forging alliances, a secret rebellion, and finding family in even the strangest of times. And it begins something like this, a story about a boy with stars in his eyes who was meant to kill his father, a girl with red gold hair who was meant to never know family or love, and a man in a mask who thought he had become the monster.
Updates on Fridays!

Summary
“As for the whereabouts of the Chancellor’s assassins, no official statement from the Jedi Council has been released except that any information regarding these two individuals be reported immediately to the authorities.”
Two grainy images of their faces appear: Cal, sporting a new lightsaber burn across his face and Vos with his dreads flying loose and wild. They must have been taken from the Senate security footage.
“Did we make things worse? I think we made them worse.” Cal drags his knees up to his torso and hugs his arms around them. He continues to intently watch the Coruscant newsfeed.
“…and now, we now go to Reporter Delshie on Naboo, where protests have broken out across the planet…."
Vos just takes another swig of his Corellian whisky.
Two psychometric Jedi receive an assortment of items from the Force. Each object contains echoes, or memories, that tell of a future to come. And it is a very dark future indeed…

Summary
In the horrifying wake of the Temple sacking, Obi-Wan finds four terrified younglings still alive, and flings himself into the Force on a wish and a prayer, hoping to find a place of safety for them all. He finds a better one than he could have dreamed of, an oasis of kindness in a galaxy gone Dark and mad. But this oasis has its own strangeness and secrets. If Obi-wan and the children can adapt, they may have a safe place to rest, heal, and even restart the Order. But adapting means Obi-wan must face some hard truths about himself, Anakin, and the Order as they knew it. The results will change the fate of the galaxy, forever.
Fic is finished and will update Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Summary
He heard Satine gasp, and she shot forward in the air. Time slowed to a crawl as he saw Maul raise the darksaber.
In this moment, many things happened at once. Maul grinned widely. Satine's eyes widened and her mouth dropped open in shock and fear. The force screamed bloody murder at Obi-Wan, pleading, begging him to act. Obi-Wan reached for his love.
A blood-curdling scream echoed from beyond the throne room. "NO!" Shattered glass suddenly showered the throne room.
And all hell broke loose.

Summary
The Force naturally seeks Balance. Light and Dark cannot exist without the other, but leaning too heavily into one side can destroy the other, latching on like a leech. So much like an immune system, it needs to send white blood cells sometimes to fight infection.
So when the Force feels a heavy disturbance in a galaxy far, far away, it sends a response. Just not in the way anyone could have predicted.
I.E. Or: The Force sends one of the few Light-Side focused Sith in Galactic History to settle an extra-planar genocide in it's backyard. Violently.

Bacara's mandatory enforced leave takes him to Coruscant, where, desperate to outrun some ghosts, he pesters Fox into finding him something to do. Chasing Fox's own ghost wasn't exactly what he expected.
Ending up on the lowest levels of Coruscant with an increasingly erratic Fox was somehow even less expected.
The only way out now is up.

Summary
Sajuan Ka is eternal. Or so all her acquaintances think.
She follows one calling only, protecting and examining everything in the great Library of the Architects, the Library of Time. For her, she has been at work for roughly fifteen years. For the rest of the galaxy, she's been around for 3000.
Stationed next to an unstable black hole, the library of the ancient builders eats away years in the real world while Sajuan moves outside of it, safe with the library. But with the costs come great gifts, the mastery of forgotten and powerful skills, the greatest collection of now antiquities items ever created, and secrets unknown to the galaxy.
She is the Bendu. And change is calling.
Emerging at the height of the Clone Wars, on the precipice of a new age, Sajuan is confronted with a rising unbalance in the Force.
To fulfill her duty as the Bendu, she must walk the fraying tightrope between light and dark on the journey back to peace.Series

In the clouds of Bespin, the wind always answered him.
On the Finalizer, the stale air only whispers of lost things.
Hidden within the First Order’s machinery, he writes to the Resistance in code and silence, each message a plea into the void.General Hux calls him efficient.
Mitaka calls it survival.Neither of them admits what their relationship is starting to become.
Because every secret leaves a trace, and in the corridors of the Finalizer, even vapor trails can linger longer than intended.----------------------------------------------------------------
TL;DR: Mitaka is a force-sensitive spy for the Resistance. Shenanigans ensue.

Summary
"You're a space wizard, Murderbot. You'll hate it. It'll be great." - The Force, probably
If Murderbot ever proves the Force is sentient, it will plot to murder the shit out of the Force.
So maybe I should’ve noticed I had bullshit magic powers sooner, but in my defense I didn’t think magic was real. Most sane people would insist magic isn’t real.
Wait, whoops, the ghosts would claim it’s not magic. It’s “the Force” (in case you’re wondering, yes, you can hear the capitalization), and I’m a “Force-sensitive” which means I’m able to manipulate the mysterious, supernatural (but definitely not magical) force that a bunch of old dead monks decided to name the Force. (Not that I’m making fun of their naming sense. It’s apt even if it must’ve gotten confusing sometimes.)

Summary
A missing padawan, a masked Sith, a failing Republic, and the missing link that connects it all.
In which Anakin Skywalker is kidnapped and brainwashed by the Sith as a Padawan, and it changes everything.
...
Vader had a plan: destroy Sidious, seize power, and finally rule the galaxy. Easy.
What he didn’t plan on:
– Babysitting a snippy Padawan
– Being emotionally blackmailed by her grief-stricken Jedi master
– Catching feelings for a stubborn (and strangely attractive???) Naboo senator who insists there's still "good in him" - whatever that meansBut when fragments of a life he doesn't remember start to resurface, and his new "allies" won't stop dragging his ass toward the light, Darth Vader starts to wonder who he really is beneath the mask.
Because, sometimes, the real power is the friends you definitely didn’t plan on making.
…And seriously, who the hell is Anakin Skywalker?
