    Summary

    “I will not apologize for speaking the truth,” the child says. “However, I regret if that truth has offended you.”

    “Jesus Christ, kid,” Jim mutters.

    “I am not offended,” Spock responds, as blandly as he is able. “I was remiss in casting such hasty judgment upon your guardian.”

    ”Father,” she corrects.

    ”Your father,” he agrees.

    *****

    An academy AU + Tarsus aftermath fic in which James T. Kirk ends up accidentally parentally bonded to an orphaned Vulcan child. When the father/daughter duo enroll in Star Fleet, hijinks ensue (mostly at the expense of Spock’s previously immaculate but quickly deteriorating self-control).

    Winner of the 2025 Philon Award for a novel-length fic (!!!)

    Summary

    “I need to tell you something,” Ben turned to look at Anakin. “I haven’t been entirely truthful with you.”

    Panic shot through Anakin’s gut and he rolled onto his side to face Ben. “Ok?”
    -
    Anakin never believed that demons were real. Confronted with the truth, he has to make a choice - to live a normal life, or to pursue love.

    Summary

    Obi-Wan starts to hide his braid in the tenth month since the birth of the Empire. He pins it behind the ear every morning, because he can't stand the pitiful looks the newcomers throw his way.
    It's understandable.
    They think his Master is dead. They think he mourns, clings to a promise that would never be fulfilled. They think he is just one of the many padawans, orphaned in this devastating massacre.
    He sometimes wishes it was the truth.

    His Master, however, is not dead. His Master is alive and he is the Sith that started it all.
    But Obi-Wan can't bring himself to denounce him even after holding the cold corpses of his younger brothers and sisters.
    Anakin Skywalker was once everything to him. And Obi-Wan is ashamed to admit that he still is.

    Summary

    With traitorously shaking hands, he reaches out and turns Vader onto his back. The helmet falls from his face completely now, and lying within is the whole, hale, unblemished, beautiful, radiant-

    The face of Anakin Skywalker.

     

    (OR, it is the Will of the Force to heal Vader's body. Unfortunately, it seems that Will doesn't extend to his mind. At least, so assumes the hollowed-out shell of a former Jedi in desperate need of a new hope. A fix-it fic, of a sort.)

    Summary

    Considering that he had picked up what was probably a Sith artifact, promptly passed out in the middle of a war zone, and apparently woken up twenty years in the future with Obi-Wan having taken up residence in his head, Anakin thought he was entitled to have a few questions.
