    Summary

    People would be lining up to see a Gentleman Conjurer, expecting something special.
    Trouble was Stede wasn’t.
    Lucius had worked around people with the gift before. Most of them were complete tossers who thought the sun shone out their arse because they could singe their handkerchief with their fingertips. Yeah, there were different levels of it. Best of the best were the ones sitting in Parliament or working in the many places the Queen ruled over, making sure to keep it that way.
    Stede… wasn’t.
    He wasn’t anything, really.

    Summary

    Ten years after the Mand'alor takes Coruscant with his clone army, the Jedi Order is scattered and in hiding. On the urban planet of Taris, Agen is trying his best to keep his head down and care for his two wards, but the arrival of a new Mandalorian commander to oversee the planet's reforms throws even their tentative safety into doubt.

    Fox, for his part, intends to do his job, fix Taris's problems, and get the hell out of the Outer Rim. He doesn't expect to meet a single father in the city's depths, or trip over an attraction he can't shake and definitely can't afford.

    Summary

    His words trailed off when the cabin door swung silently inwards, untouched by any hand. The candlelight wavered and danced and with the silver of the quarter moon behind him, Blackbeard’s face was lost in shadow except the glowing pits of his eyes. “Oh God!” The man recoiled, his arm jerking against Izzy’s hand. “What kind of devilry is this?”
    Blackbeard lifted one hand into the light, curling a finger in invitation. “Come here.”
    The man whimpered, trying to pull back, but Izzy pushed him in, putting his weight behind him, step by step.
    Blackbeard unfurled like smoke from the chair, looming over them and fuck, Izzy’s heart always went a bit faster when he did that, no matter how many times he saw it. The prisoner wailed in panic.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian gets caught sneaking into Cloud Recesses.

    But since he can't tell the truth - that he's just here to deliver his teacher's most recent love letter to her soulmate who's stuck in a cave - he tells a lie instead. He says that he's a Jiang disciple that had arrived late and so had snuck in through the gates. He hadn't expected the lie to work, sure that it would unravel as soon as they found a Jiang to verify it, but instead Jiang Yanli backs up his story, and even adds to it.

    Which is how he ends up masquerading as the first disciple of Lotus Pier while trying to figure out how to get out of Cloud Recesses without anyone discovering that he's the disciple of Baoshan Sanren.
