Summary
“- I heard she’s dying.”
Obi-Wan's ears catch the words from the group of initiates. Intrigued, he leans a bit closer to the gossiping group.
“Dying?”
“I heard she collapsed and there was blood coming out of her nose and her eyes and her ears-”
“There was not!"
Far away, a ship on a scientific mission crashes under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind a final message bearing warning and a bizarre theory of what caused the crash. The Jedi are asked to investigate and send a young but talented knight to the wreckage, to determine the veracity of the messenger's claims. She finds more than any of them bargained for.
And she brings something back with her.

Summary
“Hello, brother,” Thor’s voice says. Loki opens his eyes. His breath catches in his throat. Thor stands above him, gazing down at him. The Grandmaster doesn’t notice a thing. As Loki looks closer, he realizes he can see through Thor. His brother’s form is not quite opaque; Loki can see the garish curtains through his head.
“Oh,” he says quietly. “You’re not really here, are you?”
“No,” Thor says clearly. “I’m not.”
“Shit.”
Loki is knocked from the bifrost by Hela and falls to a glittering, maddening cage.
Or: what happened on Sakaar.

Summary
“Could,” the mechanic says. “Could be on your way in one, two hours. But if it’s not fixed now, engine might fail worse, and faster. I know this ship, she’s a sturdy one, yes, but you can’t push them forever. Greez knows.”
Cere turns to Greez. “Captain.”
“Cere.” A moment of awkward tension between them. “Look, we’re not taking risks with the ship. He says he needs a day, he needs a day. Come on, guys, it will be fine. Fun even! You remember fun, right?” Greez looks around at the stony expressions on the rest of their faces. “Ok, maybe not.”
Six weeks post-Nur, the still-recovering crew of the Mantis find themselves stranded in a luxury hotel with a dark secret. And Cal has a unique - and vivid - window into its violent past.
Fun!
