Summary
A hunter baits a trap along the path, his unwary prey oblivious to the danger. It is hidden, discrete, and springs immediately. Unfortunately for Xehanort, his trap relies on the element of surprise - which unbeknownst to him, has long since been lost.
Yen Sid claims Xehanort is a genius tactician; let’s see how he reacts when his trap catches not prey, but a spanner instead.

Summary
What was once a quest of destruction has become one of salvation; lies that once clouded the world have been cleared. In one timeline, Sora and co. would’ve been entirely focused on eliminating the Organization. In this one, well. This one is quite different.
The skipping stone has already been thrown, the ripples ever widening. A hurricane grows, borne on a butterfly’s wings.

Summary
Xehanort. One of the greatest villains Kingdom Hearts would ever see, erased by a transmigrater’s first breath. But just because Xehanort no longer exists doesn’t mean the Master of Masters and Xigbar are screwed out of their plans. They’ll find another way, another victim - the one thing they have is time, and plenty of it. Or so they think.
They’re used to operating in shadows and secrecy, their pawns ignorant puppets dancing to their tune. And then there’s me, pushed out from behind the curtain. They’re not the ones with all the pieces: I am. And most importantly of all, I know when and where the Master of Masters and Xehanort canonically cross paths.
I have one chance to stop this, to stop him. And you bet I’m going to take hold of it with everything I have.
(Even if it means killing a man in cold blood.)

Once in a Blue Moon by Pikabolt, thylasupial
Fandom: Kingdom Hearts (Video Games), Original Work
28 Nov 2025
Summary
Tell me, what do you believe in? That destiny is written in stone? That you can't stop the river of fate from taking its course?
Some people believe that. That destiny is set in stone and cannot be changed, that what was foreordained is what will be. And if certain people had their way then that would be the end of it. But they're wrong. Our fates are written by every choice, every action taken, every chance occurrence. The Book of Prophecies alone proves that.
And besides, if destiny was set in stone, then I wouldn't be here, now would I?

Summary
Ob’ika was excited. The incoming jetii apparently having written several papers on how changes in saber styles were reflected in different armor designs. If nothing else, putting up with some stuffy old grump was worth his bu’ad’s happiness.
The ramp lowered, hydraulics hissing steam and obscuring the figure that began their slow descent down.
Jaster expected a lot of things when he was told a jetii was coming to Keldabe. He expected a stuffy, possibly cantankerous, old being wrapped in jetii mystique and beige robes.
He didn’t expect big green eyes, or shaggy blonde hair.
He didn’t expect the being that was a couple of inches taller than him, gangly limbs wrapped up in an oversized cardigan.
He didn’t expect Feemor.
Meshla jetii. His heart murmured, and Jaster couldn’t help but agree.
Or
After being gifted the dark saber, Jaster figured that he’d be able to get his adorable bu’ad to restore the weapon.
What follows is a beautiful jedi artisan, a semi-sentient weapon, and a besotted Mand’alor.
