  1. Summary

    Apro le mie mani per riceverti (ma un pensiero mi porta via), mentre tu le chiudi per difenderti (la tua paura è anche un po' la mia). Forse noi dobbiamo ancora crescere (forse è un alibi, è una bugia). Se ti cerco ti nascondi, poi ritorni.
    Fermati un istante, parla chiaro, metti gli occhi dentro i miei. Come ti vorrei.

    Summary

    Once upon a time she derided herself for imagining they were a done deal on a collision course straight to her bedroom. But that's all over now and he's gone, hasn't been back since he walked off her roof and disappeared into the night air. It's not all bad though. She has friends, she has work and tonight she even has cause to celebrate. It is, after all, her birthday and there's a chance the universe will be kind. It's just a chance though. And not a very good one.

    Sequel to You're a ghost town (and maybe I'm a ghost) and As days go by, the night's on fire

    Summary

    Karen Page might not be sure about much: where her home is, what her heart wants, or why she’s on a ship headed back to New York when two years ago she vowed to leave it behind forever.

    But she is sure that monsters aren’t real, that myths are just stories and that dead men don’t roam the high seas looking for vengeance. But when disaster strikes during her voyage, she realises she is going to need to rethink a lot of things.

    Summary

    He had the kind of face you saw everywhere, and nowhere at the same time – so unremarkably average that it was almost suspicious. But he knew how to wear it, knew how to be a thousand different things; whatever the mission required. Though he often disappeared into whatever role he was assigned, sometimes she saw glimmers of an emotion she couldn’t read ripple over those strangely common features, and knew it had no place in a liar’s arsenal of masks.

    Sad eyes, she thought, shivering. He can’t hide those.

    Summary

    Cassian has been undercover as an Imperial officer for the Rebellion for so long, it may not even be a cover anymore. He had always been perfect for the job, cold and charming at the same time. But as much as he clings to his cause, he must ask himself what he is willing to sacrifice to maintain his disguise, and whether that makes himself any better than what he is pretending to be. Jyn, meanwhile, never asked to be a part of this fight. It is her last favor to the man who raised her that she donned Imperial armor and was assigned to Captain Andor's flight crew. She will lie her way to freedom, even if it means leaving herself behind. That doesn't mean she can't hate her new captain, though. Not when he embodies the Empire she hates.

    (This isn't at all an excuse to write the Rogue One crew as Imperials and Jyn as Cassian's bodyguard, not at all.)
