    Summary

    The Stone Gryphon is a sprawling Spare Oom story of war, espionage, immoral acts done in service of moral ends, natural history, dinosaurs, Alice in Wonderland, cunning corvids, tequila, D-Day, theology, spirituality, love and sex. If the Dawn Treader can be on the wall of a spare bedroom in Impington, Narnia can be found in other places, too. The Friends of Narnia just have to learn where to look. And upon returning from Narnia, the Pevensies probably didn't just sit around waiting to die in a fiery train wreck.

    "No, no! The adventures first," said the Gryphon in an impatient tone: "explanations take such a dreadful time."
    L. Carroll, The Adventures of Alice In Wonderland

    "Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible."
    Francis of Assisi

    "But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
    "Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
    "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
    "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
    L. Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

    Summary

    “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.

    Summary

    obi-wan takes both twins to tatooine, rex and ahsoka start a rebellion, and along the way, many things turn out better than they might have in another universe.

    alternatively, a self-indulgent fix it series of (mostly) standalones including but not limited to: extensive family dynamics, what it means to wear mandalorian armor, world building, clones finding their place in the galaxy, long conversations about legacy, redemption, the many different kinds of love, and stories.

    (and despite what you may believe, this story is far sadder and far happier than you think.)

    Summary

    Apprentices, Pritchard has found, were like stray cats. From the day you open your door to your first, you're doomed to take in every one that comes your way.

     

    Exiled from Araulen on falsified charges, Pritchard arrives in Dun Kilty in search of a respectable job and a place to grow old in peace. A cabin at the edge of the woods, a woodkeeper's job with an occasional band of bandits to send home — what better place for a retired ex-Ranger?

    Except the dark and dangerous eyes of the Crown Prince of Clonmel never seem to leave him alone, and Pritchard grows determined to see beyond their shadows.

     

    Apprentices. What made him think it was a good idea?

    Summary

    Maul dies on Tatooine and wakes up over 40 years in the past. He quickly seizes the opportunity to change his fate and free himself from his Master, to save his brothers, including the one he doesn't yet know he has, and plot a new revenge against Darth Sidious with the advantages of time, foreknowledge and a surprisingly familiar Mandalorian face. It isn't only his own destiny that Maul's actions will change for the better, but that of Jango Fett and the entire Mandalorian people.

    As far as the Force and the Ka'ra are concerned, healing hearts through the power of family and friendship will just be a nice side effect of saving the galaxy from its terrible future.

    Summary

    Chief Charlie Burns can't sleep, the weight of raising young Cody without a mother weighing on him. Trying to explain why a young boy needs a mother when he has such a kind father to Chase, the pair stumble on an interesting revelation about what it is about a mother that a child needs. No romance, except a reference to Kade/Haley, but lots of discussion of gender roles.

    CC has amnesia. The only clue to who he used to be is the tattoo repeated on his wrists and ankles. CC-2224.
    However, the longer CC stays with Master Feemor and the crew of the Pearl, the less he cares.
    He'll remember eventually anyways.
    Probably.
    Or: Feemor finds a wayward clone.

    Summary

    It was silly, Ray thought. Praying to a dead stranger he'd only known for five minutes. But Rose led him to this, and Ray was going to listen to her signs because he didn't know what else to do. “Please. Please, Reggie. Help Julie.”

    Reggie freaks out when he finds Julie's dad praying to him. There's no way Julie's dad was the guy Reggie gave his Orpheum tickets to twenty-five years ago. Unless...it was?

    Reggie and Ray relight the spark of friendship through prayers and ghostly advices, but when Ray comes to discover that one of Julie's new band members is Reggie, their relationship evolves from one-sided to two. Ray grapples with the fact that he views his old friend Reggie as a son, and Reggie struggles to know and own his worth. Unfinished business and ghostly offers threaten to tear apart Ray and Reggie's newfound father-son relationship, and everything they hold dear.
