Summary
For years he was like a comet, orbiting her atmosphere.
Never drawing too close, never going too far. They shared the same solar system and observed each other fleetingly from afar, but had no reason to speak to the other.
He was a legend, a force that drew spectators far and wide, awe-struck at his being. She felt like dust carried on the wind, trying and trying to pull herself together into something strong and wonderful, something others could look upon in that same breathless wonder. Yet no matter how hard she tried, she found herself blown away, strewn across the darkness of space.
Osha thought it would always be like this.
Had no reason to think otherwise.
But where Osha saw space dust, Qimir saw the forming of a star.

Summary
Halbrand laughs against her lips. “We can’t — mm, I have to —“
Galadriel swallows the words whole.
Stay, is what she wants to say.
“I don’t want to go yet,” he murmurs.
“If they catch us — “
He brushes a loose strand of golden hair behind her ear. “It wouldn’t be the first time.”
---
These days, she just wants to be consumed.
or: Galadriel and Halbrand were bad at this in high school. Now, as adults, they might be even worse.

Summary
"Once upon a time there was a soldier, a great warrior of the elves. The youngest child and only daughter of a mighty family. And there was… what am I in this story? The monster, the king?”
In trying to convince Halbrand to leave Númenor and take his place as king of the Southlands, Galadriel swears an oath to stand by him no matter what his past holds. This changes the history of Middle-earth for many centuries to come.
[This is linked to the other stories in this collection - it's an expansion of one of the scenarios in the 5+1 story 'Five times Halbrand's secret got revealed' - but it's a standalone fic that should make sense by itself.]

Summary
"What did she say?" The Darkling asked. The red and gold silk fan covered her mouth, so that he could not make out her words. Only her eyes were visible, curious and searching.
The attendant at her side cast him an appraising look. "The Sun Empress was wondering why you do not bow."

Summary
Alina Starkov expected to wake up on a ship sailing across the True Sea, one that would take her far from Ravka, far from the Darkling and his mad crusade. Instead, she awoke in Os Alta to a devastating truth: the war was won nearly a century ago, her first love was dead, and she remembered nothing.
Not even that, as part of her surrender, she agreed to a political marriage.

Summary
I’m crammed into a burrow so small that my knees are up around my ears and the boom mike keeps slamming into my head, inhaling the potent scent of toffee-apple brandy and trying to drink a talking mouse under the table.

Summary
The prompt was: "Regency/Victorian AU, Ben sees Rey's stockinged ankle by accident, Rey notices this and challenges him more in public by showing a bit more leg, wearing lower necklines, etc. Being the gentleman that he is, Ben refuses to touch Rey unless she agrees to marry him. Can end in any way that the writer wants."
My only excuse for what follows is that I was exposed to Victorian pornographic fiction at a young and impressionable age.

Summary
In the end, she has to hand it to him— he'd always been an expert in taking her by surprise, and it would appear that he's chosen not to shake the habit even in death.
"Rey Skywalker?" There's a vaguely sardonic twist to the corner of his mouth. "Does that make you my cousin now?"
"It seemed like a fitting tribute," she says in wooden tones. Be it dream or vision, she might as well play along— draw this out until reality comes crashing back. Who knows when he'll come to her again as solid and as vibrant as this?
"I see." Suddenly he's leaning into her, their faces so close together. "Tell me," he murmurs, his lips almost brushing against hers, "have you ever heard of the term kissing cousins?"
She registers the smell of alcohol on his breath at the same time that his eyes flutter shut and he slumps face-down into her lap, snoring softly. You're alive, is all she can think at first, staring down at his head of lush black hair.
Ben Solo is alive.
Alive and very, very drunk.
