Summary
Jyn wakes up on Yavin with severe injuries - the cause of which is as much a mystery as how they survived Scarif. As Cassian and Jyn try to heal their bodies and souls amid the aftermath of the Death Star's destruction and the Alliance's slow evacuation, another surprise finds them when B2-EMO arrives at Base One with a strange child and devastating news.
As Cassian struggles with his newfound fatherhood, Jyn wonders if there is a place for her in this small family.
And what does this all mean for their future in the Rebellion?
Somewhere between the sand and the stardust,
through every collapse and creation,
there is a pulse that echoes of you and I.- Lang Leav, Memories

After the fall of Eregion, the elves find refuge and safety in Imladris. Except Galadriel - still haunted by the Shadow. Can she place her pride and stubbornness aside to let Elrond heal her injury?
And can her dearest friend heal her heart as well?

its fish, and followed me.

Summary
She dies on the beach, in his arms. It isn’t the first time. It isn’t even the second. “We’re trapped,” she tells him, blood bubbling up between her lips. His fingers spasm on her wound and he shushes her, his voice shaking. She draws a shuddering breath that rattles in her lungs. “It’s my turn, but it’ll be yours, next. We’re trapped here.”
Or: Jyn has to keep reliving Scarif until she gets it right.

Summary
It started with Armitage Hux proposing an idea that she was sure was the worst anyone had ever had.
The whole “pretending to be engaged to her former rival turned business partner” — thing.
And it's all wound down to this: her, in the passenger seat of the pickup truck she spent a year and a half restoring, petrified by the the Laura-fucking-Ingalls style driving snow as Hux white-knuckles the steering wheel.

(Stranded in a little camper on the side of the highway, reluctant business partners Hux and Rose figure out a way to keep warm.)
