    Summary

    When Cody chooses to trust and protect Anakin over Obi-Wan, this leads to a cascade of change among the clones and the Jedi. Bonds are formed, things change, and a new path has opened up through the war.

    In the meantime, Sidious works to keep the control he has so long maintained on the galaxy to see his ultimate goal through. As a direct result of the fallout between Obi-Wan and Cody, he leads the galaxy on a darker path, but that doesn't mean there isn't hope.

    Summary

    Part of her might die that day, crushed into nothingness, but she lives nonetheless, continuing to draw breath after breath as her vitals stabilize.

    There is a tiny, stubborn spark insides her, a minuscule flame of will which refuses to dim and be blown away. It is this very spark which fueled her during her darkest times, making her continue to fight in the Senate for causes she already knew were lost, deep down. It is this very spark she ends up clinging to, thinking: no.

    No, she can’t go like that, a broken woman swept away by the current of fates, dying of a broken heart while the love of her life stood and destroyed everything she had ever believed in and fought for.

     

    Or wherein Padmé Amidala survives childbirth, thinks, cuts her losses and gathers her Handmaidens past and present around her to found a Rebellion. And if she weaponizes the hell out of Naboo's custom of using decoys and gives Imperial Intelligence fits while doing so, well, so much the better for her.

    Summary

    Erik is reflecting on how easy it would be to touch Charles, and how utterly unfair it is, really, that the mind-reading only goes one way here, and how he'd told Charles "Stay out of my head" while shouting in his mind No, come in, and he's reaching to clear the chess set away (all in one graceful sweep, pieces going back into their compartments and folding board packing everything away) when Charles catches his hand.

    Summary

    Tony can't get himself back from Siberia, and it takes the night for him to be rescued. While waiting to see if he'll die of hypothermia, he realises something for the first time. It wasn't that he failed because he hadn't tried hard enough. He had failed because he had tried too hard. His so-called team-mates had formed the habit of blaming Tony for everything because he had let them. He had shouldered the blame, let them attack him without consequence, and cleaned up after their mess, all so they could continue to feel self-righteous in peace. But it wasn't just him they were attacking, and saving the world didn't give them a free pass to be the very bullies that Steve claimed to fight against.

    Tony woke up in hospital, still sustained by the relief of his realisation. Things sucked, but they would get better. He was Tony Stark, and no challenge was too much for him. It was odd how much easier it was to plot when he actually did intend ways to manipulate the ex-Avengers into falling in line. And since that was what they seemed convinced he was doing all along, they didn't deserve a warning that it would now be true.
