    Summary

    Before, Lao Beifong would have never considered bringing Toph with him to Ba Sing Se. It just wasn't safe.

    It turns out that your daughter having her own personal bodyguard changes things.

    Summary

    When A'Sharad gives Anakin an ultimatum - inform the Council about his massacre of the Tuskens or A'Sharad will do it instead - it's meant to put an end to an unpleasant stretch of indecision, to finally bring truths to light. A'Sharad doesn't expect a Sith Lord to decide that he's suddenly too great a threat to be allowed to live.

    Tatooine is a strange place, though, with a will of its own. A'Sharad isn't going to be allowed to die so easily.

    Summary

    What goes up must come down. And rise and fall and rise and fall, again and again. Leia's not sure if she's up yet or still in the middle of a down, but it's terrifying to realize how far she has left to fall. And who she'll bring with her.

    Summary

    [“Right,” Hakoda manages. “An honor.”

    “Once we will endeavor to meet with equal honor in return,” the Fire Lord says so quickly he starts almost before Hakoda gets out the last syllable.

    “Sure.” Hakoda has to forcibly unclench his teeth to grind out, “We’re happy to welcome the delegation.” As if they had any choice in it.

    Fuck, but it would have been a lot easier to say no if the Fire Lord weren’t dating his son.]

    Or,

    Zuko is nervous about making a good impression on his first visit South as Fire Lord, which certainly has nothing to do with meeting Sokka’s father.

    Sokka is excited to see his boyfriend after months apart, and is absolutely totally fine with not being involved in the week’s political negotiations. Totally.

    Hakoda already has a headache just thinking about how exactly he’s supposed to interact with a fellow world leader who is also a teenager, and also dating his son, and wait--Sokka’s old enough for dating now? When did that happen?

    Summary

    [Title Scrawl]
    A Galaxy in Tumult!

    Following the presumed death of the evil Emperor and his hulking henchman Darth Vader, the fledging Alliance stands on the verge of victory! But as they press their advantage against a destabilized Empire and manifest from the seeds of Rebel resistance, can this new government survive their own instability?

    Among the scattered Imperial forces of the second Death Star, Darth Vader's disapparence is not so final as they would hope. Worse yet, the Rebel Hero Luke Skywalker has gone missing!

    Alone and disadvantaged, what will Anakin Skywalker do to find his son? Will he walk the razor's edge of tentative alliance with the Rebel Forces, or succumb to the draw of Imperial power? Free from all Masters, can Anakin Skywalker learn who he wants to be, at last?

    Princess Leia Organa must navigate this minefield of clashing obligations and dripping grudges, all the while attempting to understand a heritage she hates, a brother she loves, and a mysterious mother she cannot understand.

    so good
    ch31 the one where vader is a lil scarf-wrapped greasemonkey dude who's been collected by leia
    approved!
    vader continues to interact with the rebel alliance. someone has asked him to teach her saber katas. he is scoping out his neighboring ship berth engineer's project for a functioning hyperdrive and getting antsy about luke. leia is getting a little pissy.
    he just took his flight test and the rebellion population knows he's vader now
    wedge sees some interesting similarities between vader and luke......hmm......I wonder why that could be the case....
    el oh el the assassination attempt
    project accepted. holos found of anakin
