  1. Summary

    Seandainya kita tidak disentuh kekuatan semesta maka tiada perang, tiada cinta, tiada katastrofe. Teatrikal itu tidak akan punya arti, hanya sandiwara semata. Tidak akan ada kapitulasi dalam fabulanya. Namun mereka disentuh, dipeluk, dibelenggu—oh, betapa semesta menyayangi mereka, anak-anak para dewa, yang dianugerahi berbagai macam jalan untuk tiba di akhir yang sama. Para entitas ilahi uang mencintai mereka tetapi tidak punya cukup keinginan untuk menyelamatkan mereka.
    Sayangnya Rin tidak pernah menunggu untuk diselamatkan.

    Sebuah seri fanfiksi dari trilogi Perang Opium karya R.F Kuang

    Rin mendapatkan kejutan tak terduga sebagai hadiah ulang tahunnya yang ke-21. Segudang memori yang dipercayainya sebagai kehidupan masa lalu; di mana dia adalah seorang pejuang, seorang penyintas, seorang pahlawan, seorang monster. Tiada hal yang mudah bagi Rin termasuk pada kehidupan ini. Gadis itu harus mengecap gema penderitaan lalu di setiap langkah masa depannya sembari berjuang untuk hidup dan menghadapi kenyataan setelah mengetahui apa yang telah diperbuatnya.

    Summary

    Sensing her unease, Kusuo’s lips pulled into a smirk. ‘Scared? Having a change of heart already?’

    It would be a lie to say that she wasn’t afraid of him, like one was taught to be afraid of hurricanes and earthquakes. But he didn’t strike her with the same kind of raw, tangible fear as her brother did. Makoto had no apparent powers, but when he walked into a room and glanced in her direction, Kokomi wanted to tear off her own skin. Kusuo, even with all his abilities, did not affect her in the same way.

    “No.” Kokomi answered, an unexpected roughness tinging her voice. “There are worse people out there.”

    The smirk slipped away from Kusuo’s face. It was a strange sensation, to not be regarded as the monster in the story this time.

    Then, what was he?

    In which Kusuo is fine playing a pretend villain and just wants to be left alone. Too bad the pesky runaway princess won’t let him be.

    Summary

    The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
    The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.

    Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
    This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
    It’s time to scheme.

    Summary

    Let us consider the fact that the Jedi Order is a monastic religious organization based out of a temple, with five basic tenets of faith.

    Ch 1: Death, yet the Force (meeting Anakin)
    Ch 2: Chaos, yet Harmony (teaching Anakin)
    Ch 3: Passion, yet Serenity (teaching a teenaged Anakin, good grief)
    Ch 4: Ignorance, yet Knowledge (Anakin is a Knight now, why is he still Obi-Wan’s problem?)
    Ch 5: Heresy, yet Orthodoxy (actual plot? Ie, Clones and Sith)
    Ch 6: Emotion, yet Peace (epilog)

    Ch 7: extras / deleted scenes

    Summary

    What goes up must come down. And rise and fall and rise and fall, again and again. Leia's not sure if she's up yet or still in the middle of a down, but it's terrifying to realize how far she has left to fall. And who she'll bring with her.

    Summary

    Three AUs into one.
    -Anakin is found by the Sith before the Jedi
    -The Empire rises into power far before it does in Canon
    -Darth Vader falls in love with Padme, Senator Amidala's handmaiden.

     

    “I am the master of all.” His master hissed in his ear while he clutched at his arm, not daring to utter a sound. “The senate, their planets, the very stars they encircle are mine. There is no place you could go, no place you could escape from me, my apprentice. Do not forget your purpose, for I have no use for that which does not serve me. Do you serve me?”
    “Yes, my master.”
    “Then do not disobey me again.”
