    Summary

    Maul dies on Tatooine and wakes up over 40 years in the past. He quickly seizes the opportunity to change his fate and free himself from his Master, to save his brothers, including the one he doesn't yet know he has, and plot a new revenge against Darth Sidious with the advantages of time, foreknowledge and a surprisingly familiar Mandalorian face. It isn't only his own destiny that Maul's actions will change for the better, but that of Jango Fett and the entire Mandalorian people.

    As far as the Force and the Ka'ra are concerned, healing hearts through the power of family and friendship will just be a nice side effect of saving the galaxy from its terrible future.

    Summary

    Since the days of Old Valyria, the blood of the dragon has been man and beast in one. Since conquering the Seven Kingdoms they have grown fruitful and multiplied - but it is not natural for so many dragons to flock in one territory. Even without human politics, it could not have gone on forever. Eventually the dragons will dance, and die.

    Or, House of the Dragon if everyone was a dragon. Not a fix-it fic, just a "playing around with small changes" fic.

    Targaryens are dragons in the shape of men, or have been since magic went out of the world. Before that they were something more. Yet magic has not gone entirely, and it takes only a little of it to save a man's life.

    Summary

    “Nah, it’s fine,” Tazmin waved him off. With his visual field now unobstructed, Rala felt there was something different about his battle-brother (fuck-brother, tunes-brother, buzzed-brother) as well.

    “Is your forehead bigger?” he asked, dubious about this.

    “Now who’s being a petty bitch,” Tazmin replied, but he held up his hand to cover his hairline which meant that Rala was right.

    “It’s because you keep pulling your ponytail back too tightly,” he said knowledgeably. “She-who-thirsts thinks you must want to go for one of those cone-skull kind of looks.”

    “Only idiots who obsess over practicing one sword-strike six-million times think that’s in fashion. And that’s not what I’m going for.”

    Summary

    After a mission gone wrong Cassian Andor stumbles onto information that could help the Rebellion to bring down the second most powerful man in the galaxy - Darth Vader. Intending to kill him during a visit to Jedha, he is stopped by the will of the Force - and two Guardians of the Whills. The only option is to take Vader prisoner, and work out what the Rebellion can possibly do with him from there.

    Rewriting for Andor Season 2 compliance and possibly actually continuing this fic?

    Trazyn has been invited to attend a conference of his... peers? No, Trazyn has no peers. On the other hand it wouldn't do to arrive unprepared to vigorously debate his academic rivals. Time to get in some practice.

    Summary

    Zhou Zishu probably doesn't realise how big an impact his arrival in Ghost Valley had on the people around him. For some, it's the difference between a living death and a new life. You can't blame them for falling a bit in love. Pity he already has a soulmate.

    Companion piece to Qi Ding Gui from a certain xiao-Yu's point of view. You probably do need to read Qi Ding Gui, the previous series fic, to understand what's going on here.

    Summary

    “Why don’t we dig up the graves of his victims and gather their ghosts to fight with him?” Wei Ying grinned, seeming to take delight in the shocked expression on Lan Qiren’s face and the disapproving gasps of everyone else in the room.

    I like his boldness, Aituan said, with the sharpness of a saber’s laugh. But I don’t think he’s ever done what he’s talking about. I don’t taste resentment on him.

    For a moment Huaisang had half-wondered if perhaps QingheNie weren’t as alone in their cultivation methods as they had always thought and perhaps YunmengJiang also had unorthodox secrets, but Aituan was right. This was idle speculation, not informed knowledge.

    “Spiritual energy is energy, resentful energy is energy,” Wei Ying was saying, trying to defend his idea, ducking away from having a scroll case thrown at his head. “Why can’t resentful energy be used by humans?” He really ought to stop talking. The Lan clan was too bound up in their rules and ideas about what was correct and thus righteous to be open to the path of demonic cultivation.

    -

    Or, what if the Nie sect's saber cultivation was demonic cultivation all along.

    Summary

    “What have I just done?” the ghost whispered to itself. “Why did I do that? I’m not like that. That isn’t me. These people haven’t done anything to me to deserve…” It looked across the room at the bodies and at Mo Xuanyu, who hadn’t dared to move yet himself. Its eyes were blood red, stark against the pale white face and ink-black hair.

    The ghost looked, Mo Xuanyu thought, not that different to his own reflection. He knew what people said he looked like. Who he looked like.

    “Yi… Yiling Laozu?” he asked, having to lick his lips several times to gather enough spit to actually speak.
