Yvraine does as well.Might as well w(h)ine about it together.

"Why is there a raven on my desk?"
Guilliman peers across the room at the bird, perched on a stack of reports. Lieutenant Corvan does not reply, his gaze dropping to the ground.

Summary
Princess Ochako had some reservations about her newly assigned bodyguard, Knight Midoriya.
Well...
She had reservations at sixteen.
She had feelings at eighteen.
She had... significantly more than feelings at twenty...
Knight Midoriya? Well... He claimed he was simply doing his duty.
~*~*~*~
Knight Midoriya fixed her with those sharp emerald eyes and said, “My duty is to your safety and honor.” He waited just a moment, “Your Highness.” Like he momentarily forgot, caught up in his own thoughts, or perhaps almost about to say something else before thinking better.“Is that all?” She found herself asking.
He kept looking at her, and she found herself wondering if she hoped he’d say something else.

He has no brother he can trust, ask for advice, or even to share time in the presence of. He has no counsel, no equal, no fellow he may bow his head and share his grief, his concerns, his worries with.
It is only him.
And work must be done.

Summary
Five years into his self imposed exile on Tattooine, Obi-Wan Kenobi is gifted the chance to go back and bring hope back to the galaxy.
With hindsight on his side, he fully intends to save his master, save his padawan, make some new and old friends again, prepare the Jedi for a war they’ll hopefully never see and begin to pull apart all the many tangled threads of the Sith Lord’s plans.
Should be relatively easy. Right?

A wonderful time travel rewrite of Episode I, with Obi-wan being the perfect balance of "Hang on- I've got this" and "Oh shit, I did what now?"

Summary
The artifact glowed in Kenobi’s hands, consuming his entire body in a brilliant crystal blue. Dooku watched—half horrified, half entranced—as the box split open, the brush of the unifying force breathing in sync with the living. "A single touch from a single soul creates an unimaginable shift in the force," the descriptions of the artifact had uttered. The words couldn’t even begin to describe the shift in the air, the impenetrable tick of gears turning. And then, almost as soon as it began, the swirling blue light tucked itself back into the artifact with a soft hiss, leaving behind a man who was nothing like the general Dooku knew.
Standing in front of him was a young Jedi Knight who looked very much afraid.
“Grandmaster?” Obi-Wan whispered.
Or in other words: During the late Clone Wars, Obi-Wan accidentally touches an ancient Jedi artifact, which transports his grieving Post-Naboo self into the future to take his place. Somehow this saves the galaxy.
