    Summary

    Cody fumbles his helmet off and tucks it under one arm, hovering mid-air in front of the tower’s balcony. He’s a professional, he reminds himself.

    “Hi, I’m Cody,” he says, keeping his hands and shoulders relaxed; some of the captured royals can be a little skittish at first. “I’m here to rescue you.”

    The man in the tower just laughs, and the sound is as delightful as his singing had been.

    “Oh, that’s very kind,” the prince says, his madder blue eyes twinkling. “But I’m quite alright, thank you. Have a good day.”

    Or, Commander Cody and Star Wars’ actual Disney princess.

    Summary

    "You say the Warhorse showed up last night," Sam said in tones of profound doubt.

    "Yeah," Steve replied.

    "The Warhorse. The Warhorse of legend. Daelland's Warhorse."

    "The same as the one on the back of the transit card, yes."

    "And he appeared in your living room?"

    Steve eyed the Warhorse, very large and very black and giving him a dubious look out of his strange grey eyes. "He's standing in it right now."

    "Uh huh," Sam said.

    "Hey, I'm not any happier about it than you are."

    * * *

    Steve's mom had left Daelland long before he was born, following her heart to New York, but she'd raised him on stories of its famous Warhorse. Before she died, he'd promised he'd go back and learn the country she'd come from.

    That was why he was in Daelland. Not so Daelland's legendary Warhorse could appear in his living room. But planned or not that's what had happened—now Steve had to figure out what to do about it.

    Summary

    It is a truth all Jedi are forced to acknowledge at one point or other, that a knight in good possession of the proper flimsiwork and a tenuous grip on their sanity, will be expected to add to the lineage lest they be confronted with the terrible and horrifying consequences of a master in want of a grandpadawan.

    Summary

    When Obi-Wan Kenobi was twelve, he was told he was too angry to ever be a Jedi. He wasn’t good enough.

    Only weeks later, he offered up his life in exchange for hundreds of others and Qui-Gon Jinn found him worthy.

    When Obi-Wan was thirteen, he chose the war-torn streets of Melida/Daan over the orders of Master Jinn, and he ceased being a padawan of the Jedi Order. He resolved the conflict there and then, unsure where else to go, sought out his family on Tatooine.

    It was clear he couldn’t fit himself back into a life he was taken from as a small child. So, just shy of his fourteenth birthday, Ben Lars presented himself to the AgriCorps.

    OR, the one where AgriCorps Specialist Ben Lars is recruited to assist in the settlement of the clone troopers after the war ends.

Her students number in the hundreds of thousands and soon will number in the millions.

    But she is committed to this assignment, and the boys here need her. She learns how very much that is true as each new month spent on the planet revels new horrors and abuses.

    Summary

    Wei Ying lets the oars rest and leans back, tilting his head to look at Lan Wangji. “Did you find what you’re looking for? On the docks today?”

    Lan Wangji wants to turn away from his gaze. He isn’t used to being seen. “No,” he says, because he doesn’t know how to explain what he’s looking for in the first place.

    Wei Ying props his chin on his fist. “Can I guess?” Without waiting for an answer, he continues, “You’ve fallen in love with a pirate girl, and you’re waiting for her to steal you away to be the glittering jewel of her collection, so you can live on the open ocean together.” Lan Wangji narrows his eyes at him and Wei Ying bursts into laughter. "Ah well," he says. "I'll get it right next time."

    Summary

    Summary

    Like a snowy mountain top in spring the residents of the Burial Mounds trickled down the mountain and joined the flow of society.

    “I went to the Burial Mounds,” Lan WangJi said.

    “Ah, yeah… I’m sorry Lan Zhan,” replied Wei WuXian, “I hadn’t thought anyone would come to visit. I am still not sure how it happened; I brought A-Yuan to Yiling to play by the river and then ended up somehow teaching a bunch of children swimming and writing along with him.”

    Summary

    A time travel fix-it. Mixes novel timeline with CQL Stygian Iron as it is a pretty convincing plot device.

    An older, calmer, wiser Wei Wuxian is dropped back into the past. He will use whatever means possible to save all those he cares for even if that means redeeming those who should not be given a chance and changing the entire timeline.

    Not much of a plot but a descriptive what-if.

    (Gist: Wei Wuxian reforms Wen Ruohan and civil servants his way to family, happiness, and life.)

    Summary

    “Pardon me,” a low voice said from behind them.

     

    Almost as one, the Wen all turned and Wei Wuxian had to crane his neck to get a look at the speaker. Through the sweat and pain stinging his eyes, he could still say the man was probably the handsomest he'd ever seen. A cultivator, then, but not one Wei Wuxian would ever associate with one of the established sects.

     

    "You are disturbing my mother," he said.

    Summary

    G'raha Tia could count on one hand a number of memorable kisses he recalls with his Warrior of Light. For each kiss, he realizes he's fallen more and more in love. Here, at memory’s end, he promises to confess that love.

    This work is a love story told from G’raha Tia’s point-of-view through the use of five kisses as a literary frame. It chronicles his experiences with my own Warrior of Light, an Ishgardian elezen mage, from ARR, through Shadowbringers, and through the end of Endwalker. Extremely fluffy slow-burn, mutual pining, nerds in love.

    Part of my "Promises Kept" wolgraha fic series.

    Summary

    Enterprise is safe to fly another day. All thanks to Captain James T. Kirk's sacrifice. He's made peace with his death, even though it breaks his heart one final time to see the hurt in Spock's eyes. Still, the last thing he gets to see is the face of one of his dearest friends... until his eyes snap back open. Not in a hospital. In a shuttle as it lands at the Academy.

    “Once you exit the shuttle you are free to return to your dorms. Those of you who are new, you’ll follow me to registration and physicals,” a vaguely familiar-looking officer says, and Jim’s heart stops in his chest. Surprising, considering it shouldn’t be beating at all.

    Summary

    First Officer Spock of the USS Enterprise is part of the away team that discovers the survivors of Tarsus IV. Captain Pike assigns him to the curious case of James Tiberius Kirk, who steals one of Spock's sweaters. There were no sufficient Vulcan poetics to describe the emptiness of the colony as it was found on the morning of stardate 2249.43. The fully-completed residential sector was neither ugly nor beautiful but simply remote; a hollow landscape of metal alloys and sensible architecture, with determined vegetation growing alongside the support beams. They did not flower.

    Summary

    When Spock chose Starfleet over the Vulcan Science Academy, he had not anticipated cohabiting with the most illogical, irrational, emotional human he ever met.

    On the flip side, Jim never asked for a Vulcan chaperone, especially one as snotty as Spock, son of Sarek.

    A Starfleet Academy AU in which Spock adapts to human life, Jim learns very, very quickly never to play a prank on a Vulcan, and there are far too many people after Jim Kirk's life.

    “Sizhui!” Wei Wuxian cries desperately, sliding the door open with a snap.

    His eyes scan the patrons who look at him with annoyance before he finds Lan Sizhui and Lan Jingyi sitting together, drinking warm tea.

    “Senior Wei?” Lan Sizhui, always so kind, stands up and walks over to Wei Wuxian with a worried look on his face.

    “Here, take this!” Wei Wuxian pushes the basket into Lan Sizhui’s chest.

    “What—”

    “Oh, dear! Oh, Heavens!” Wei Wuxian exclaims, taking a step back. “I can’t believe I just did that—fuck!

    Lan Jingyi joins them, standing next to Lan Sizhui. He beams as he looks into the basket. “Puppies!”

    Summary

    Just some random AU I'm forming in my head. Don't know how many works there will be, or how long they will be.

    The title is a direct translation of the title of the song I was listening to as I was trying to name this. So don't read into that, unless you want to. But feel free to listen to the song: Med ögon känsliga för grönt by Barbro Hörberg.
