Summary
For the last few weeks, Bennett Morrison and his friends have been trapped in the Abyss, an endless expense of nothingness doted with small islands of life. Surrounded on all sides by mystery and danger, they've survived thanks to their connections with Wills--godlike beings whom have granted them incredible power, at the cost of fusing their souls.
Bennett has become keenly aware of this fusion since he arrived in the Abyss. How could he not, when his body continues to change by the day? How could he, when the face he sees in the mirror looks nothing like the one he grew up with, when he has increasingly become her?
It's a confusing, terrifying existence, but its one Bennett has become used to--and, perhaps, even started to enjoy, in part.
But what does he do when, suddenly, it stops? What does it mean when he wakes up back home, like nothing has changed? What does it mean when everyone else returns to normal? No powers, no Wills, no changes...
Except for him.

Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp

Summary
The central paradox of Ryloth centered around the constant abuse of its people. Certainly, the Twi'lek were one of the most common races in the galaxy, due primarily to their regular capture and sale as dancing girls. The planet had a representative in the galactic republic, though it sat on the edge of wild space. Exotic spices were mined and exported to the wealthy, with almost none of that wealth trickling down to the lekku-bearing natives. Ryloth was an important part of the greater galactic culture, not because of what it gave, but because of what was taken from it.
Vista knows absolutely none of this. All she knows is that she's woken up on an alien world and has essentially no idea how to get back to Earth Bet.
Still, she might as well make the best of things while she's here!
