    Summary

    Jango and Obi-Wan hijack a freighter and go on a galactic road trip to kill a man.

    or;

    Montross is a little cleverer on Korda VI. Jango ends up tossed into the cargo hold of 'The Stryker', a slaver freighter taking him to parts unknown and well out of Montross's way. Melida/Daan, weakened by its infighting and the Young suffering catastrophic losses, are raided by opportunistic slavers, resulting in Obi-Wan captured as a prize to be sold to a 'special' client - Force sensitive slaves are, after all, valuable cargo (and there is a dark shadow in the galaxy always on the look out for forgotten, powerful Force sensitives).

    By sheer luck - or maybe the Force - they're locked in cages beside each other. They plan, they escape... and the future shifts.

    And, there in the doorway, a woman that Dong-sik has never seen before.

    ...but that isn't true, is it?

    Summary

    All in all, he wasn’t all that surprised about the ghost. Maybe he could’ve put a little effort into feeling shocked or afraid, but Zhou Zishu was too old and too tired to bother with something like that. He didn’t have any particular opinion on the existence of ghosts in the past, except that if there was such a thing, Zhou Zishu would be the first to know. Why would the universe wait until the afterlife to torture him for his sins, when it could start now?

    He always expected to be haunted by his actions. He just didn’t predict it would be quite so literal.

    OR; Zhou Zishu moves to an old, rotting house in the middle of nowhere to retire peacefully. He gets harassed by an annoying ghost roommate and a violent feral cat instead, and doesn't hate it half as much as he should.

    Summary

    It was a gradual fading now. Taste, smell, touch, hearing, sight, speech - they were all going to leave him, bit by bit.

     

    Zhou Zishu is losing his senses. Wen Kexing has opinions about that.

    Summary

    When Philippe Gaston virtuously embarked on a quest to the monastery he was raised, nobly (to his mind, at least) sacrificing the company of Isabeau d'Anjou and Etienne de Navarre, he never imagined that an encounter with two old not-quite-friends would leave him in need of a rescue. But magic, it seems, is not done with Etienne and Isabeau any more than it is with Philippe, and it'll take all three of them to get Philippe home.
