Summary
After dying on the Death Star, Obi-Wan Kenobi expects to; well, die. Instead, he wakes up in the initiate dorms at the Coruscant Temple. The Force has sent him back in time, given him a second chance, and he knows what he needs to do. At twelve years old, his life is at a crossroads. Does he apprentice to Qui-Gon Jinn or does he join the AgriCorps. He knows the fate of the galaxy if he chooses the former and so he dedicates himself to the latter.
Only, the Force works in mysterious ways. When a third option is presented, becoming Yan Dooku's Padawan, Obi-Wan has to make a decision.
With a new master and a new chance, Obi-Wan is determined to save the galaxy from Sidious's plans for it.

Full of Mettle by Thornback

Summary
‘‘I used to think Fullmetal was a crude nod at your prosthetics…’’
Roy Mustang’s words were laced with a thoughtful hum, and Edward tried not to feel hurt by the misassumption. Many heard his title and assumed it came down to his automail arm and leg. Ed had just hoped the Colonel – after everything – would’ve been different; that Mustang would’ve looked past Edward’s ill-fitting uniform and cripplingly-heavy automail and only see him as a person.
‘‘But,’’ Mustang continued, pensive, ‘‘I think they spelled your title wrong. You’re not Fullmetal, you should be Fullmettle. As in, you are full of mettle.’’
Edward blinked, utterly baffled.
‘‘Mettle, kid. M-E-T-T-L-E.’’
Mustang spelled it out for him. Literally. A genuine smile tugged at the Colonel’s lips as he rumbled out a fleeting chuckle, affectionately sweeping a hand over the top of Edward's golden crown. The boy's throat constricted as an annoying warm blur suddenly invaded his vision. He had experienced more kind words and actions under this man’s brief command than he had experienced in a long, long time.
It was just a shame that it was only a temporary arrangement.

Summary
Jinshi paid for the whole night, but the reason why is far more innocent than Maomao expects. Jinshi's reason might be innocent, but as soon as he meets the brilliant and beautiful woman he quickly starts to fall head over heels. He might be able to convince her to assist with his investigation, but can he convince her to trust him with her heart?
A fic that draws on elements of canon, but is not actually canon. An AU where Maomao is a courtesan at Verdigris House. The palace is plagued with mysterious deaths, and Jinshi suspects poison. He's told of a courtesan that has knowledge of medicine and poison, and seeks her out with the intention of requesting her assistance with the investigation.

Maomao has a habit of saying the wrong thing at the right time. Or is it the right thing at the wrong time? Either way, Jinshi keeps turning red and it's definitely not due to illness. She’s an apothecary, after all, she’d know. Right?
Or: 5 times Maomao unintentionally made Jinshi blush (And 1 time she did it on purpose)

Summary
When he nearly tripped over the hem of the rug, she sighed, briskly setting her work aside.
She reached out — catching him by the forearms before he faceplanted at her feet.The moment her hands touched him, Jinshi froze.
His eyes, unfocused but intent, dropped to where her fingers gripped his sleeves. His mouth worked soundlessly for a moment before he muttered, deeply wounded,
"My wife... wouldn’t like you touching me like that..."
Maomao blinked slowly.
"I am your wife," she said, voice dry as the desert.
There was a long pause.
A heartbeat of pure, stunned silence.Or: Jinshi's drunk, stupid and in love.

Summary
“Xbalanque, are you sure about this?”
Still lying on his back, Xbalanque opens his eyes. He knows he shouldn't be smiling, not when Och-Kan, with his pure, beautiful, and noble heart, is genuinely worried that their idea–his, as Och-Kan repeatedly claimed–may become nothing more than another burn scar on his face and body.
But he can't help himself. Seeing Och-Kan’s face over his, worry practically dripping from his eyes like this invites a tickling sensation to bloom in his stomach.
Xbalanque, Och-Kan, a little experiment with Liquid Phlogiston, and another one of Xbalanque's attempts at testing their boundaries.
