    Summary

    Mace Windu was many things, but a morning person was not one of them. Nevertheless, the Force had deemed the ass-end of dawn to be an appropriate time to drag him out of bed and into the gardens. Not that he didn’t enjoy the scenery, but after returning from a grueling diplomatic endeavour-turned hostage negotiation not even three hours ago, he’d rather enjoy the pitch-black setting of his room.

    Still, he was a Jedi and, as such, Mace’s duty would always be to follow the will of the Force. Today, it decided to lead him towards the forested areas where two younglings were huddled together at the base of a large tree, sleeping.

    Mace tended not to spend a lot of time in the creche, but he recognized the Kiffar child as his friend Tholme's unconventional Padawan. Quinlan Vos, he believed his name was. The other boy was a scrawny redhead with deeper bags under his eyes than most grown adults and the Force drew his attention to this boy in particular.

    (In which Knight Windu meets five-year-old Kenobi and six-year-old Vos and, while some things stay the same, everything changes.)

    Summary

    It all starts with Qui-Gon Jinn not dying on Naboo, but his mistakes are not so easily forgotten and forgiven when he's still alive. Obi-Wan has to figure out how to be a knight, Anakin has to figure out how to be a Padawan, a bunch of original characters have their own story arcs and Yoda has way too much to do.

    Summary

    The Council had had less than three full days’ notice that Initiate Kenobi had been demanded back by his parents before the date their “emmisaries” were going to arrive to claim him. Three days hadn’t been much, not nearly long enough, but they’d tried.

    Three days went by—more than enough time to reach Stewjon from Coruscant, even with the hazards in the densely populated Deep Core... Yaddle started to feel a sense of disquiet, of unease.

    Something had gone wrong.

    -

    Sure, keeping the Jetii’adiik really would be a bit dini’la, but… Well, Jango had always wanted to be the ori’vod, for once.

    “You want to… adopt me,” Obi-Wan said slowly, blinking at Jaster.

    -

    No, Ben thought, this hadn’t gone quite to plan, but looking at his new family (sweet Force), Ben was more than satisfied with the outcome.

    -

    An expansion from the one-shot collection, because I have zero self control and all of you lovely readers are enablers! XD

    Title comes from the song "False Confidence" by Noah Kahan
