The Resistance Chronicles, Part 1: The Occupation of Kashyyyk by DarthMydinsky

Summary
Welcome to the Resistance Chronicles. This nine-part series depicts the events between my Star Wars, Episode VII fix-it fic, covering nine months of cold conflict between the co-opted Republic Government and Leia Organa's fledgling Resistance.
This series began as a set of notes that I used to establish the plot of my fix-it fic for Star Wars, Episode VIII. As I began writing the notes out, I became increasingly interested in fleshing out the story in a similar fashion to the Clone Wars animated television series.
This series also gives characters like Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Ackbar, Madine, Mara Jade, Din Djarin, Sabine Wren, the Armorer, Jacen Syndulla, Hera Syndulla, and Ben Solo more space to breathe before the chaotic whirlwind of Episode VIII. It also offered more space to focus on original characters, including Jax, Kit Antilles, Kira Palpatine, Veryx, Specks, Bolsko, Ferrer Melso, the Prime Jedi, Zhey'la Vendez, Aven Bryton, and Akeyla Ismaren.
Once I post the entirety of the Resistance Chronicles, I will move to posting Episodes VIII and IX.
Thanks for reading!

Summary
Unter den fallenden Blüten der Kirschbäume Kyōtos nimmt eine Revolution leise Gestalt an.
Shinta nun bekannt als Himura Kenshin schliesst sich mit unerschütterlicher Entschlossenheit den Ishin Shishi an, fest entschlossen, den Weg in eine sanftere Zukunft zu ebnen. Im Zentrum dieser Bewegung steht Katsura Kogorō: Ein Mann mit Weitblick, strategischem Verstand und einer stillen, gefährlichen Güte.
Was als blosse Loyalität beginnt, entwickelt sich zu etwas, das keiner von beiden auszusprechen wagt.
Zwischen Blutvergiessen, politischen Intrigen und der Last ihrer Ideale ringt Kenshin mit den Schatten der Leben, die er genommen hat ohne zu erkennen, dass Katsura in ihm keinen blossen Kämpfer sieht, sondern jemanden, der es wert ist, gerettet zu werden.
In einer Welt, in der Pflicht Opfer verlangt und Liebe ein Risiko ist, das sich keiner leisten kann, bleibt nur eine Frage:
Kann etwas so Zerbrechliches wie Liebe im Schatten einer Revolution bestehen?

Summary
Under the falling petals of Kyoto's cherry blossoms, a revolution is quietly taking shape.
Shinta now known as Himura Kenshin joins the Ishin Shishi with unwavering resolve, determined to carve a path toward a gentler future. At the heart of the movement stands Katsura Kogorō: a man of vision, of strategy, and of quiet, dangerous kindness.
What begins as loyalty soon deepens into something neither of them dares to name.
Amid bloodshed, political intrigue, and the weight of their ideals, Kenshin struggles with the ghosts of every life he has taken:
Blind to the fact that Katsura sees him not as a weapon, but as someone worth saving.In a world where duty demands sacrifice, and love is a risk neither can afford, the question remains:
Can something as fragile as love survive beneath the shadow of revolution?

Summary
A dark political crossover of Harry Potter and The Princess Diaries, where crowns protect their own—until they cannot.
When a medical crisis forces the Prince of Genovia's daughter Mia Thermopolis into the public eye, she is thrust into royal protocol, wizarding politics, and the private war surrounding Voldemort’s return. Features Severus Snape as the Prince of Genovia (yes, it can be done. It's crack treated very seriously).
France wants Severus as an asset. The Malfoys want influence. And one personal scandal threatens to become a geopolitical crisis. Starts YA, turns darker after chapter 16...
Note: The Rating has now been updated to E, given the intimacy between Charity/Severus Chapters 19 onwards. This is still a political thriller, not a smut fic, but hey, I think all espionage stories should have some sexytimes. It's practically a rite of passage :P

Summary
Draco Malfoy’s execution is meant to close the final chapter of the war. Hermione Granger’s attendance is a formality — a duty she never wanted, for a boy she once knew.
But when the moment comes, nothing goes to plan.
In the aftermath of the execution, Harry Potter scrambles to uncover what happened, but the Ministry wants the truth buried — and it will go to any lengths to ensure that it is.
This work is fully complete and will be undated on a regular basis-though life might get in the way so I apologies in advance. As always comments and Kudos encourage me to update faster.

Summary
In the heart of the Reign of Terror, staunch revolutionary Marie-Jeanne Robespierre is tasked with the interrogation of the fallen King Louis XVI. Confined to the Temple prison, the king and his jailer engage in a battle of wits and ideologies. But as the weeks turn into months, their heated debates give way to forbidden dialogues and dangerous intimacy. Trapped between her loyalty to the revolution and her undeniable passion for the man she should despise, Marie-Jeanne finds herself succumbing to a profound case of Stockholm Syndrome. With the shadow of the guillotine looming over their every encounter, they steal moments of fierce passion and tender connection, knowing their time together is brutally finite. This is the story of a king who captured his captor's heart and a revolutionary who betrayed her cause for love in the most unlikely of places.

Summary
Sense and Übel should be opposites: pacifist scholar and intuitive killer, noblewoman and street rat, order and chaos. Forced to protect the city of Kobalt from beasts and conspiracy, they move from enemies to allies, from allies to something neither can name, while their pasts, hunger, trauma and desire surface.
Methode and Länge join the main plot in Ch.30; Marcille and Milliarde enter it from Ch.62 after earlier Elsewhere scenes. Fate will also bring Land, Falsch, Kanne and Lawine to Kobalt - driven by curiosity, unfinished business, old feelings, emotions they want to explore and the hope if being helpful.
Spicy scenes to expect. If you are interested why Aura is tagged, look at Ch55 ;-)

Summary
I've aimed to write a story that is half political intrigue and half romance with a considerable amount of magical world building compatible with but beyond the HP universe. I hope this will appeal to both Dramione readers and general HP fic readers.
Hermione Granger is in her forties, and long gone are the day she felt the need to prove anything to anyone. Her children are grown and she's at the peak of a career defined by ethical approaches to magical trauma healing. She's spent decades helping heal and rebuild a world that failed to break her more than once.
When a new magical framework begins quietly reshaping behavior within the Ministry, a political push for 'stability' becomes anything but and a system designed to prevent harm threatens to undermine everything Hermione has worked to create.
Draco Malfoy has spent his life in the shadows of wizarding society, avoiding public attention, and learning systems the way Hermione understands principles.
Together they form an unlikely duo. The closer they get to understanding the Ministry’s design, the more they rely on each other to navigate a political crisis of escalating proportions.

Summary
Marcus Tilman followed the red line because someone wanted him to. Nick Valentine followed it because someone else was watching them do it. The Railroad doesn’t recruit with riddles. It recruits by deciding whether you should be alive by the end of the day. But in the end, everything is about the choices you make…including who you keep choosing over and over again.
