Summary
"In war as in love, to bring things to a close, you must get close together." — Napoleon Bonaparte
AU: Arihnda Pryce meets Thrawn in a hotel, not a diner, when she needs advice on Higher Skies. As a stone in still water propagates ripples, one change begets others. It turns out that an ambitious political climber and and an ambitious military commander have a great deal to offer each other.
(Warnings apply to chs 9, 10)

Summary
Big things come in threes. Christmas brought one: two more to go. (I highly recommend starting at the first work in the series if you haven't read it yet, or this will be awfully nonsensical.)

Summary
"He looks around, around / He sees angels in the architecture / Spinning in infinity." Or: Eli Vanto makes an offhand comment after visiting Yinchom, and it gives Thrawn a bright idea that he takes much, much, much too far. Everything's got fallout.
Series
- Part 1 of my traveling companion

Sometimes it takes a minute for our decisions to catch up to us. (That doesn't mean they're bad.)

Summary
Life unfolds in moments, like photographs. (Or: the last six months of 2018 are extremely busy for Arihnda Pryce, though mostly not in the way she would have expected. A sequel to Snapshot, written around the prompts for the Thryce Discord Advent Drabble Challenge.)

Summary
Who knew getting a present could be such a drama? Imperial Paranoia is a helluva drug.
(Set about two and a half years into the future of A Dealer in Hope, if you're reading that.) -
The Last Bite by ap_trash_compactor

Summary
Getting what you want from someone is usually about making them comfortable. Sharing a meal is one way to do it. AU Thryce fic where all your faves are Rebels. Don't worry, it should explain itself along the way -- if not entirely in the first post. (Rated to give me possible leeway for later chapters.)

Summary
What if the timeline of events at the Ascension Week party at the Alisandre had been a little different? Cue: Lights. Camera. Disaster.

Summary
On Coruscant, everyone's usually playing some kind of game. (Fluff for the Thryce Discord.)

Careful what you wish for. (And if you get it, don't let it get you down.)

Summary
Mitth'raw'nuruodo would prefer not to be parted from his work. Arihnda Pryce would prefer to succeed at hers. Sometimes things work out to the benefit only of a few. (I just wanted A/B/O Thryce fic, so here we are.) (There's no sex on screen tho which is kinda different lol)
NOTE (on the tin where you can see it): The archive warning is for implied/off-screen events that do not happen directly to any of our main characters (unless you really squint), but I still felt it was appropriate given how integral state-sponsored sexual violence is to the setting. There is also off-screen character death (of minor characters), and a canon-compliant death of a character who is major in Rebels but not in the 2017 novel, but because it's canon-compliant and off-screen I didn't use a warning. Finally, there are several mentions of very gross violence, but none of it is depicted on the page in detail. However, all those things set the vibe of this 'verse. These are very dark people, living in a very dark world, doing very dark things... and they're all (kinda uncomfortably) comfortable there.

Summary
Taking portrait shots of Higher Skies Public Relations' clients isn't what Arihnda Pryce expected to be doing for a living. Her latest portrait subject isn't want she expects, either.

Summary
ScotSwap prompt: Lymond spying behind enemy lines.
But of course -- spies don't exist in a void. Somewhere on the homefront, they have people. Ones who need their reports, ones who fret for their safety, ones who know their faces and their names... Lymond spying behind enemy lines, but not from Lymond's point of view.

Summary
Arihnda's life is a series of shatterpoints, and none is more terrible than her visit to Batonn. I can think of at least five ways events might have been less terrible for everyone around her — and even a few ways they might have been less terrible for her.
