    Summary

    [Title Scrawl]
    A Galaxy in Tumult!
    Following the presumed death of the evil Emperor and his hulking henchman Darth Vader, the fledging Alliance stands on the verge of victory! But as they press their advantage against a destabilized Empire and manifest from the seeds of Rebel resistance, can this new government survive their own instability?
    Among the scattered Imperial forces of the second Death Star, Darth Vader's disapparence is not so final as they would hope. Worse yet, the Rebel Hero Luke Skywalker has gone missing!
    Alone and disadvantaged, what will Anakin Skywalker do to find his son? Will he walk the razor's edge of tentative alliance with the Rebel Forces, or succumb to the draw of Imperial power? Free from all Masters, can Anakin Skywalker learn who he wants to be, at last?

    .
    This is a story about a man who overcomes self-hatred and despair and is in turn compassionately and violently reminded that the real answer is mutual aid and blowing up fascists.

    Summary

    "In the early days of the war (somewhere between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back), a group of stormtroopers make a rash decision and find them selves face to face with a mysterious couple on the far end of Imperial space." RebelCaptain and Rogue One through other peoples eyes (mostly) and sometimes their own." The Rogue One post-script that started as a one-shot and turned into a multi-generational SWU space opera mostly composed on my phone.

    Summary

    Rex has been fighting with the Rebellion for three years. He’s found a new purpose, a new squad, a new reason for being. And the best part is, no one knows about what happened … before. Then someone from his past reappears and forces him to confront everything he’s been hiding.

    Omega has finally arrived! In the Rebellion! To fight and spy and cruise around in her own shuttle! Then she finds a brother she thought she’d lost forever.

    Rex and Omega hadn’t expected to reunite after all this time. But the Rebellion stops for no one, and they must put their differences aside to infiltrate an Outer Rim trading station and prevent an influential family from aligning with the Empire.

    Part of a series, but can be read as a standalone.

    Summary

    Linked bits, stories, and threads from the AU unexpectedly world-built around my big crazy multi-chapter story "Over the Edge." The story of Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor and lives changed forever by Rogue One. Told across the greater Star Wars universe, and often through other peoples eyes. Linked but will hopefully stand up as snippets on their own. Changing point-of-view narration, time shifting, exile, redemption, healing, true love, hope, angst, crazy aliens, adult themes, wounds that even time cannot heal, heart-breaking aliens, sassy droid narration, unlikely action heroes, the eternal battle of good against evil....it's all probably going to wind up there.

    Zeb wasn’t jealous. Not one bit. He wasn’t ignoring Kallus’ comms or avoiding him in the mess over something so…petty. He was just busy, and their schedules didn’t line up. He definitely wasn’t jealous of Kallus and that new engineer, Farha.

    Summary

    Wedge Antilles can’t seem to shake the attention of the NRI’s notorious Airen Cracken. He keeps wondering what that means, and how worried he should be.

    (Or, essentially, a retelling of the first four X-wing novels if Cracken’s behaviour towards Wedge was interpreted slightly differently.)

    Part 4: Thrawn by

    Fandoms: Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Legends - All Media Types, Star Wars Legends: X-Wing Series - Aaron Allston & Michael Stackpole, Star Wars Legends: Thrawn Trilogy - Timothy Zahn  

    16 Dec 2022

    Summary

    Having re-read the Wraith trilogy during the pandemic (and with a lot of free time), I wondered what the series would look like from the POV of Dorset Konnair - the aggressively fast A-Wing pilot with lots of tattoos. Now it’s getting into the Thrawn trilogy. (Part 3, on the aftermath of Selaggis, ended with a hook about Thrawn and C’Baoth.)

    Part 4 includes my idea of what the Wraiths were doing then, alongside the A-Wing pilots who are expanded from their novel depiction or original characters. The main three each get a bit of romantic subplot in this, but that’s kept in the background compared to the action. There isn’t graphic violence, but the dark nature of the war is an element in this even more than Parts 2-3.

    Since I took a pause after Part 3, this opens with a list of the characters and some “the story so far” details in the first chapters. This whole thing is very niche around the Star Wars stories I enjoy most, and there’ll be some obscure references to the X-Wing books/comics and other Star Wars works as well as callbacks to my own Parts 1-3. I usually explain that in the chapter notes.

    Credit to Aaron Allston, Michael Stackpole, and Timothy Zahn, without whom this wouldn’t exist.

    Summary

    Without putting spoilers here in the open, this is a short story for my idea of how Iella Wessiri would’ve reacted to events in Solo Command - specifically Jussafet IV and Kidriff V, and how they relate to The Krytos Trap. It shouldn’t be read if you haven’t finished the Wraith Squadron trilogy, and there’s also foreshadowing to Starfighters of Adumar. (The story takes place shortly before Chapter 11 in Solo Command.)

    This is not a happy story. But it is hopeful.

    (It's also meant to be a stand-alone piece, but I had an idea for another short one right after Solo Command that I may write while I'm also working on the next phase of my Dorset Konnair series.)
