Summary
Anakin Falls on the battlefield, on a small dusty planet in the Mid Rim that’s largely unimportant in the grand scale of the war. His men are dying in scores around him, screaming, spilling their guts onto the pockmarked ground, and something that has been pulling tighter and tighter over the course of the war, over the course of his whole life—between one decapitated droid and the next, something snaps in his chest. He doesn't know it, but he's more than a year early.
Or: Anakin navigates the path from straight up not noticing, to denial, to buying a pair of ugly sunglasses to hide his unfortunate Darksider eye condition, to a number of Sith lords dying in uniquely creative ways. If he reaches acceptance, it just might save the galaxy.

Summary
Darth Vader, the strong arm of the Sith, held loyal to his Order since they took he and his mother from slavery in the deserts of Tatooine. Until he became convinced they killed his wife. He abandoned his Order and disappeared in the chaos of the Clone Wars, presumed dead by all sides.
That young Skywalker is known around town as a widower and homesteader; a Nabooian who emigrated to avoid the trade blockade; a father of overly-energetic twins and warding a Togruta war orphan; a decent mechanic if your farm equipment or maintenance droid is acting up.
Anakin is a paranoid, over-protective hot mess doing his best to raise his weird pack the way Padmé would have wanted. How the hell is he supposed to do that when his kids and not-apprentice make him haul a half-dead Jedi Master home like a lost pet?

Summary
Darth Vader awakens merged with his younger body in the beginning of the clone wars. He has the power of a warrior and knowledge derived from the best minds in the galaxy and now he has the opportunity to change everything. Save for once instead of destroy. But first he has to learn to live again in a world he’d burned down.
Not easy to do with everyone suspicious of him after his collapse.
…………………………………………………………………………….
He didn’t do anything. Rex stood there and watched as one man destroyed an entire army.
He’d never seen anything like it in his life. (And he was surrounded by Jedi.)
Skywalker slaughtered them. Mercilessly. He moved like the lightning that was flashing all around them.
The soldiers didn’t even look in the Clones direction, they were all facing the storm that moved through them like the cotton candy Ahsoka had sneaked them once.
The sky was dark except for the lightning flashes that struck the earth, destroying groups of men at a time, fire was spreading across the ground, and Skywalker moved through it all with a deadly grace that looked well earned. His lightsaber slashing through any resistance.

Summary
On the very eve of the Prequel trilogy (Episode I), amidst Darth Plagueis' most audacious experiment, the chaotic power of the Great Force intervenes. The soul of Darth Revan, legendary Master of both the Light and Dark sides, is violently ripped from death and transplanted into the body of a test subject.
Reborn into a galaxy he barely recognizes, Revan must immediately confront the bitter truth: his ancient enemies, the Jedi and the Sith, have become mere shadows of their former selves. The Jedi are complacent, blind to the darkness gathering under their noses, and the Sith, fewer, yet more insidious, are on the verge of claiming ultimate power.
What side will this resurrected legend take in the brewing conflict? Will he pledge his immense power to the flawed idealism of the Jedi or the cynical machinations of the Sith? Or will Darth Revan forge a terrifying new path, seizing the destiny of the galaxy for himself and proving that some legends never fade?

Summary
COMPLETE!
Five hundred and twenty-seven days after Crait, Rey stands in her quarters on Dantooine and curses the Force.
She felt foolish for allowing herself to believe the sweet words of her bond mate and end up in this situation. She, too, told so many lies that if the truth were to come out, she would lose the family she had created and abandoned by both sides of the galactic war.
Rey thought she had a plan to bring peace between the Resistance and the First Order. She thought she had found a place at Kylo Ren's side, but that was all before the unspoken betrayal tore her heart and her world apart.Series

Summary
You feel so familiar...I must have loved you in more than one lifetime. -N. R. Hart
Days after the Resistance was nearly wiped out at the Battle of Crait, Rey and new Supreme Leader Kylo Ren are forced to realize that the bond between them was not extinguished when they went their separate ways.
As the implications of their connection begin to become clear and they realize that their destinies are entwined, a new threat rises that threatens to destroy them all.
“Whatever this bond is between us, it doesn’t seem to be going away,” Rey hissed through clenched teeth. “We have to deal with that, somehow, but we are still on opposite sides of a war. You chose that.”
“Not much of a war,” he quipped with a nasty smirk. “There is almost nothing left of the Resistance and the First Order’s power still spreads. As for the bond between us,” he glanced pointedly at the spot on his chest where her head had been resting, “you didn’t seem to mind it last night.”

“Maul is Sith,” Eeth said softly, “and a Sith that did not plan on killing his Master. A Sith that likely loved his Master… We have stripped him of an attachment. While we may now be able to properly give Maul closure, to begin getting him to recognize what happened to him was wrong…”
“It will nonetheless take time."
A slow-burn on Slavery, Freedom, and bringing Balance to the Force.

For balance to be achieved, the Force required a union of light and dark. Fortunately for the Galaxy, it accomplished this quite easily. Unfortunately for the scions of light and dark, they didn’t exactly have a choice in the matter.
Or: When Rey finds herself inexplicably pregnant, she has to learn how to deal with morning sickness, an overly doting sort of mother-in-law, and a supremely overprotective baby daddy who would tear down the Galaxy if anyone dared tried to hurt what was his.
