Summary
He curls his toes on the floor and clenches his hands, aware of his messy hair and the dark circles under his eyes. Cobb's shoulders fall and he sighs, as though he found what he was looking for in the mandalorian.

Summary
Decades of work led to this moment. Bolaire smiled as he settled into his office, finally the role of the Head Curator was his. Yes, he recognized that he was only overseeing the Lloy Wing of the Archanade, but it was the most important wing in the museum, in his opinion. His collection was artifacts from the Shaper's War, artifacts of the gods and celestials, and he loved it. There were plenty who would question why he—an elf who had been blessed by Sylandri by virtue of being an elf—would study the Shaper's War so intently, but he didn't care. It was important work, and he knew that there were secrets about the gods that could help the world around them.

Bolaire is used to odd guests at all hours of the night. But none of those guests are Halandil Fang, with Thjazi Fang’s sword strapped to his back, looking as if he’s two seconds from breaking down sobbing.
(Or, Hal needs someone to talk to in the middle of the night. As Bolaire gives him someone to lean on, the world around them begins to shift.)

Summary
“When the cottage is done, if you want to go home, we will tell the Council that you want to,” Qui-Gon says at the inn's ceiling. “But you have to promise me that you will try some Stewjoni things. They will want to see that you’ve tried to participate in the culture, Obi-Wan.”
“I don’t want to," Obi-Wan snaps.
(As part of their mutual probation period after Melida/Daan, the council sends Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to the town of Coan-Connach on Stewjon, so that Obi-Wan can decide if he wants to continue with on the path to become a jedi or if he would like to return to his family. Coan-Connach, however, is a small town struggling to keep up its idyllic facade).

“I will ask you questions of a person unnamed,” Commander Cody says. “And afterwards you can tell me if any of these behaviors are in need of professional support.”
Kix’s stomach yearns to become a farmer. Oh, the cheese it could make. It decides to practice curdling while this conversation continues.
(Kix ends up learning way more than he asked to about a most scandalous affair occurring at very top of the 212th Attack Battalion.)

Summary
They buy the 200 fucking pound fountain. It is infuriatingly cheap, and unspeakably difficult to maneuver into any space without removing paint from said space. Rex has to come out and help them hoist it into the garage and several hours pass around the kitchen table, drinking scalding hot mint tea and plotting. Plotting. Plotting.
They’re going to have to bolt the thing down somehow or else people are going to just steal it right from the center of the roundabout. Cody has about twenty bags of unused cement in his garage and some bolts big enough to get through it if need be.
He looks at Wolffe. Wolffe looks at Rex.
(Retired Commander Cody moves into a new neighborhood and becomes furious at the way a nearby roundabout is treated as a dumpsite. He installs a giant Jedi Crest fountain dead in the center of it and accidentally creates a safe place for the diasporic Jedi community to worship.)

Summary
Obi-Wan is nothing if he is not a human sheepdog for children. Anakin finds him after he’s rounded up all the padawans on board the Negotiator and stuffed them into a supply hold. He hasn’t started any games with them; he’s not offering instruction. He simply must have the youth in his sights at all times or else he will go into cardiac arrest.
(Senior Negotiator Anakin Skywalker is trying to win this war by whatever means necessary when a wrench crashes into his plans in the shape of his childhood rival, Crèchemaster Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan, meanwhile, intends to do everything in his power to keep Anakin away from his kids, war or no war.)

Summary
Organa flexes his hands.
“I promised him I would not give away his location,” he says. “Even to other jedi.”
“He’s alive,” Quinlan says.
“I don’t know. The last contact we had was years ago.”
“Don’t lie to me, Senator.”
“I am not lying,” Organa says.
“You’d throw your favorite knight to the wind?” Quinlan asks.
“It was his decision,” Organa says, “I’ve offered him refuge countless times, but as I am sure you are aware, he is the most stubborn man I’ve ever met.”
Well, yes. That’s exactly why Quinlan can’t get enough of him.
(Quinlan's lived a lot of life since Order 66; he's moved a lot of people, found and lost love, and ultimately fallen into a rut. Unsure how to move forward, he encounters a force-signature to leads him to the wastelands of Tatooine.)

Summary
When Obi-Wan dies by Anakin's hand, he expects that to be the end.
It is not.
When he opens his eyes again, all of thirteen but with forty extra years of experience, not even the dust, dread, and death on Melidaan can stand in his way. Obi-Wan had seen the worst that the galaxy had to offer twice over - he'll be damned if he lets everything happen the same way for the second time.
Enter one Jedi Master Yan Dooku, the lynchpin to so many of the galaxy's darkest turns in the future-that-was. Torn between a Master who doesn't seem to want him and a man wearing the face of the Sith who had once tortured him, Obi-Wan makes a choice.
Everything changes.

Summary
“The water is not talking to you, Obi-Wan,” Feemor says without chastisement in his tone. “That’s the force you’re feeling, from the trees maybe.” The clippers turn back on. “Or a fish.”
“Bones,” Obi-Wan says.
The clippers turn off again.
“Bones,” Obi-Wan repeats. “I want to be bones.”
“You’re already bones. Where’d you get that idea?”
Qui-Gon steps quietly closer to the door.
“You’re scaring me, O’Ben,” Feemor says softly.(Obi-Wan suffers from a genetic and force-based condition that makes him want to drown himself in a bog. And sometimes that bog is the shape of a sink.)

Funerary practices? Master Ti writes back. I’m not sure what you mean, Master Kenobi. Used biomass is the property of Kamino and thus is recycled into the cloning process.
So that’s how the revolution begins—with dead brothers, but not the way you might expect.

Summary
This is how two years of calm, steady companionship and gentle, conspiratorial glances break apart:
Obi-Wan tugs at the army-standard grey uniform that Cody keeps neatly uncreased, and his hand is on Cody’s neck and then his fingers brush against short dark hair, and Obi-Wan doesn't know which of them closes the distance so thoroughly. He pulls, but Cody lets himself fall; and then their mouths are on one another’s, and Cody’s nose is cold against Obi-Wan’s.
Or: Cody and Obi-Wan find comfort in each other during the war. Right after Obi-Wan realises that, on his part, there are feelings involved, Cody pulls away without explanation. And this, Obi-Wan decides, is fine, except for all the ways it isn't fine.
