- Notes:
A series of fics where the Melida/Daan civil war ended quite differently and Obi-Wan, sometimes called Ben, never returned to the Jedi. While not all of these fics are related, their one commonality is that the Melida/Daan Arc of the Jedi Apprentice Series has a more hopeful, if not happier, ending.

Summary
SENATOR OF MELIDAAN MAKES A NAME FOR THEMSELVES IN PERMACRETE
Just months after the historic arrival of Melidaan’s senate delegation following a century of isolation, Senator Ben Young has quickly made a name for himself. Having charmed even the most intransigent of his colleagues with his thoughtful approach to issues and his quiet grace, the scarred darling has brought light to one of the galaxy’s most vital issues.
“The stability of our infrastructure and housing remains essential to the continued wellbeing of our citizens,” Senator Young remarked, fresh from a closed door session for the Committee on the Transportation of Construction Materials. “Permacrete is at the heart of that stability. If we cannot secure the transportation of such an important material, how then can we ensure the safety of our people?”
Melidaan, which had recently been plagued by civil-war, has noticeably suffered from their lack of access to reliable building materials. With the spotlight Senator Young has shown on his home planet, questions around their sudden emergence into the galactic arena persist. Why have they decided to return?

Summary
”To the honorable Jedi Council,” the boy began, expression slightly pained, “several months ago, war broke out amongst the three factions that call Melida/Daan home.”
Qui-Gon’s brows furrowed as he continued listening.
“The Melida and Daan Elders joined forces in their attempt to extinguish the third faction, one made up of the children of both Melida and Daan who had hoped to bring an end to the fighting that had plagued our world since before we were born.” His words echoed across the chamber, and Qui-Gon shifted uncomfortably at the looks he received from a few councillors.
Nield was still speaking. ”Our attempts to form a government have been met with hostility…” Nield’s brow was furrowed, “As acting-governor, I would like to request Jedi assistance in mediating this issue.” There was a sour look on his face as he made the request.
Qui-Gon remembered the overly confident boy. Remembered the glint of satisfaction in his eye when he outmaneuvered Qui-Gon on the shores of Lake Weir. Why hadn’t the request come from Obi-Wan?
”We await your response,” Nield concluded, the hologram fading.

Summary
This was his third meeting with the Melida/Daan Delegation, and Senator Bail Antilles felt like he had more questions than when he had first met them. They were still odd, especially with the way their third member had yet to speak in a single meeting. Blue eyes trained on him in such a way he hadn’t even realized the child had been looking at him. Indeed, he probably wouldn’t have noticed a thing if his security attaché hadn’t mentioned it.
But now that it was brought to his attention, Senator Antilles couldn’t help but notice the surreptitious glances shot towards him, and every member of his staff. Most of the meetings were handled by the delegate with brown and red hair, with occasional input from the scruffier member of their party though their own eyes seemed to be tracking something unseen.
Ingress and egress points. Captain Ansorg had said, voice steady even though her eyes were sad. They’re looking for an evac route. What children needed to be so weary?
Or the Melida/Daan Civil War ends differently, leaving Obi-Wan Kenobi—now known as Ben—to try and learn what it means to rebuild a civilization with a bunch of traumatized teens.
But more than that, Ben finds a home.

Summary
A series of outtakes and deleted scenes that I wasn’t able to work in to my fic, A Home for a Padawan
If you haven’t read that, I recommend giving it a quick read as this won’t make much sense otherwise.
“…I…” Obi-Wan began, only to pause, and Nield tightened his hold on the boy. Not to restrain, but to remind him that he was in a safe place. A place that wouldn’t judge him. Wouldn’t make little of his feelings the way that asshat Jinn had.
Obi-Wan was theirs. Their responsibility. Their friend. Their idea of home. They would never judge him. Not now, not in a hundred years.
Belonging to someone shouldn’t mean you were wiling to sacrifice the person you were, to fit an idea.

Summary
“Master Yoda,” Senator Antilles began, face a moue of disdain, “would you care to explain how a thirteen year old padawan came to be abandoned in what—at the time—had been an active war-zone where several substantiated reports confirmed the hunting down and execution of children?”
Yoda sighed, while Mace valiantly struggled to keep the shock off his face because what?!?
“Extenuating circumstances there were,” Yoda started, head tilted in a way Mace knew was intended to make the jedi master appear old and feeble. “Did the best he could, the master did, under the circumstances.”
Using the breathing technique his mind-healer had recommended to curb his aggression, Mace tried to reconcile how Kenobi had been left in a war zone and Yoda kriffing knew about it.
Or the events of A Home for a Padawan from the Order’s perspective, featuring a protective Quinlan and an exhausted Mace.

Summary
“Yet despite all that, Obi-Wan Kenobi is not Master Jinn’s apprentice,” Yaddle said. “Which is why we ask what you think. Do you believe your master can remain impartial and make amends? Do you believe if he does this, that he will be able to do right by you? To honor the commitment he made when he placed a braid in your hair?”
Frustration bled through their bond, Master Jinn’s gaze boring into the side of his head and Bruck found he couldn’t hold Master Yaddle’s kind gaze. Eyes dropping to the floor, he gave the answer his master expected from him. “Yes masters.” He said, voice steady despite his thundering heart. “I believe he can.”
He tried to ignore how the Force seemed to waver at the lie.
Or Bruck and Qui-Gon after the events of Home Behind, Home Ahead, find themselves traveling to Melidaan for some much needed closure. Will they find it?
