Summary
“Are you okay?”
“No,” you faintly reply, words muffled from speaking into his chest, “but I’m pretty good at faking it, so let’s just go with that.”
Something that might have been a snort of modulated laughter eclipses the roaring in your ears.
“It’s my fault. Shouldn’t have pulled you up so fast.”
Buddy, there are so many ‘shouldn’ts’ going on right now that you shouldn’t even try to count.
The beskar’s reassuring solidity against your brow helps slow the spinning in your head, and you shift to rest your cheek on its cool, glassy surface. Ordinarily you wouldn’t dream of invading someone's space, but between the asthma attack, the nosebleed, and this science fiction clusterfuck, any semblance of sanity was long gone.
The realization his posture has gone rigid, and you’ve all but tucked your head under his chin rapidly clears the cobwebs, however. You twist out of his grip, blurting out an apology as you hastily step back to a safe arm’s length away. Of all the strangers in the galaxy to cuddle up to, you pick a Mandalorian?
An over-educated, underpaid millennial finally gets to go on her first adventure.Series

Summary
Eleanor, a millennial who’s found herself in the GFFA, has been tagging along with Mando as he searches for the Covert. For reasons that make much more sense if you’ve read the main fic, she’s just woken up after intentionally keeping herself awake for several days in order to avoid falling asleep, due to experiencing very severe nightmares.
(A silly one-shot from 'Short Debts Make Long Friends')

Summary
“Why are you looking at me like that?” you ask defensively, noticing Din's scrutiny.
He wordlessly unholsters his blaster and aims it at the shopkeeper.
“What did you do to her?"
“This is a respectable establishment, sir!” the man exclaims, affronted, as if he isn’t staring down the barrel of an IB-94 blaster pistol. “Kindly put your weapon away!"
“He can’t,” you pipe up, “He’s covered in them.”
“What,” Din repeats, now speaking through clenched teeth, “Did you do to her?”
“Nothing, other than offer hydration and gainful employment,” the man huffs.
“Hey, guys,” you interject, “could y’all use quieter words? My juice is trying to sleep.” You point to the glass bottle sitting out on the counter — the hydration, Din surmises. It is half-empty and filled with a pale pink liquid.
The sinking feeling in his stomach sends a jaunty wave over its good old friend, dread.
Eleanor, Mando's favorite millennial, is lost and then found.
A one-shot from Short Debts Make Long Friends that started out as total silliness and ended in oh-so-scrumptious angst.
