    Summary

    Despite its arid hills, snow-kissed lakes and glacial winds, some individuals would still describe Nod Krai as a land of warmth. Only this warmth is found within the hearts of its people, in the love shared between them. It is ever present in their lives, keeping them safe from the otherwise deadly and isolating cold.

    Even when this love is more akin to a dance between two souls where neither dare to touch the other lest they scald themselves. Or so Lumine’s friends would say after watching the way the youngest of the Harbingers’ trails after her in quiet awe. Someday, perhaps she’ll be convinced to turn around.

    Or the five times someone noticed Childe was in love with Lumine (and the one time she did).

    Summary

    In a strange sort of way, this is the story of how, in the final days of the Clone Wars, Mace Windu saved the galaxy by taking a nap.

    With sleep had come peace, and with peace had come clarity: Mace volunteered to find General Grievous himself because, unless Obi-Wan Kenobi stayed on Coruscant, a calamity would ensue beyond anything they had ever seen before.

    Which was how Anakin Skywalker found himself in his current predicament: falling a thousand stories to who-knows-where in the depths of Coruscant's lower levels.

    Sure, Palpatine had betrayed him to a extent that he was only beginning to understand, there were three murdered Jedi in the Chancellor's office, he didn't know if Padmé was going to be alright, and it was completely possible that he was going to end up as a bloody smear across the windshield of a speeder, but the fact remained that he and Obi-Wan had just spent the last ten minutes shrieking at one another like a pair of younglings to such a degree that they forgot about the Sith Lord in the room.

    Summary

    When Obi-wan doesn’t follow Padmé to Mustafar, she’s able to convince Anakin to run away from everything with her. But this doesn't prevent his nightmares from coming true, and he's left alone in a hostile galaxy with the infants she begged him to protect.

    “Master Anakin,” Threepio says, still hovering in the doorway. “Might I suggest bouncing the children?”

    Anakin stops pacing around with the twins, head swiveling to look at Threepio. He doesn’t have to ask what the fuck Threepio is talking about; Artoo does it for him.

    Threepio seems to draw himself up as straight as he can. “I have conducted extensive research on the subject of human childrearing in anticipation of Mistress Padmé giving birth. Holding an infant and gently bouncing them in the parent’s arms is thought to be an excellent calming method.”

    “Oh,” Anakin says. “I thought you meant… bouncing them on the floor or something.”
