    Summary

    Yes Again: I don’t like this, Fives.

    A Five Is Speaking: Relax, it’ll be fine.

    A Five Is Speaking: What’s the worst that could happen?

    In one universe, a squad of rookies get assigned to a listening post in the middle of nowhere, get caught in the crossfire of a major enemy incursion, and only two make it out alive to fight another day... for a while.

    This is not that universe. In this universe a squad of rookies get assigned to a listening post in the middle of nowhere, decide to take on some radical and perhaps ill-advised challenges, try to take the hologaming industry by storm, find a mad scientist lab in the basement, and then, unbelievably, everything goes even further off the rails.

    All O'Niner knows is, he's not paid enough to deal with any of this.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I'm always amazed at how sometimes an author can get *so much across* to the reader in an all-dialogue fic. This one is ASTOUNDING. I laughed my shebs off. I bawled my eyes out. We're not even DONE yet and I'm reccing this to any and everyone I know.

    Summary

    His General is here, in this city. He can feel it.

    They will come together. And if the General does not remember their time spent in space, in battle, in stifling layers of shells and fabric that felt natural in that other galaxy, then that will be okay, still.

    As long as Cody can see him; as long as he can take his pale, freckled hand in his and feel the coolness of the skin, he will be satisfied with himself and this city. He will no longer feel the yawning hollowness of an unoccupied sunlit room.

    (Cody searches for Obi-Wan in another life.)

    Summary

    Ben Kenobi had lived a long live. He had known love and joy, sadness and loss. He had survived the genocide of his people. Fought the man whom he loved like a brother, despite feeling his heart break. He watched helplessly as the Galaxy fell into the hands of the Sith, as the few who dared to object disappeared. He made peace with this and with himself. It was a good live. Now, having cognized the Force at the highest level, he could guide young Luke Skywalker as a spirit.

    CC-2224's life was harsh and tough. Not everyone can handle such rhythm, but CC-2224 had no other choice. He was born to serve the Republic and then the Empire. He did so dutifully even though he disagreed with Empire's methods and policy. He watched the legacy of his template die, an era of terror and fear take over the Galaxy. Chaos engulfed all living things. But finally, his time has come. His brothers were waiting for him. He can finally rest.

    But the Force, it seemed, had other plans.
