Summary
When he opens his eyes, his mind syrupy and slow, he finds not one face looking down at him, but two
Iana Pel-Thenior, Thara thinks, is beautiful.
The light is almost gone from the evening, but what remains is a hazy purple and gold, and it settles across Iana’s face, making his honey-eyes glow.
“Oh, Thara,” Iana says, “What hast thou done to thyself?”(Or: Thara's ghoul wound acts up, and Iana steps up)

Summary
Luke watches with rapt attention as Biggs pulls a draw from a cig. The paper sticks to his bottom lip and he smiles around it.
“You can’t tell ma,” he says. “She’ll skin me.”
Luke nods, because he doesn’t want to tell Lady Darklighter that her son is sucking cigs behind the vaporator field. He wants to watch her son suck cigs anywhere in the galaxy. He’s sweaty, his dark hair is slicked back, and the beginnings of a mustache on his upper lip curls around his smile.
Luke is entranced.

Summary
“Serenity,” Csevet says, and his voice is flat and stoney. Maia’s hands feel clammy in his lap. “There’s been an accident at the Istandaärtha Bridge.”
Or: One accident, one flower, one kiss. Not in that order.

Summary
“Beshelar, please come here.”
Csethiro hesitates. And then stops hesitating, because she has long prided herself on being a woman of action. Cowardice is for other people.
“I am Csethiro Drazharan Zhasan,” she states in Maia’s lovely voice, and is gratified when the lieutenant startles and his eyes go wide. “And you must find my husband.”Or: Bodyswap, with soft feels. That's it, that's the fic.

Summary
“I’ve been hired by your wife,” Obi-Wan says, because he was raised from infancy in the Qui-Gon Jinn style of diplomacy and negotiations, which is to say, go in straight and run fast. “She is concerned you’re under threat because of your political work.”
“Breha,” Bail says, in that sighing way that people do when they actually love the person they’re speaking of. Then he heaves a breath. “She is probably not wrong."

Summary
She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would.
"To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”
Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;
“Sister— he is.”

Summary
It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.
And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.
Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?
