Summary
In the aftermath of Pharloom's functional collapse, a few remnants of the old kingdom linger. Some more hostile than others.
Hornet learns the hard way that the one responsible for her arrival in Pharloom was not the only one with a distinct interest in her, and that, though she has seen the breadth and depths of this kingdom's cruelty, having witnessed the remnants of that cruelty inflicted on others does not make her more resistant to its attention turning directly upon her.
Fortunately, she isn't alone in Pharloom. Unfortunately, her allies can do very little for her when they have no idea where she is, and being found by one does not necessarily mean being found by all- nor does one ally's presence make her escape complete.

Summary
Freeing the Hollow Knight from a mad god’s clutches is one thing; freeing them from their own self-imposed chains is entirely another. Particularly when they understand their rescue as no rescue at all, but simply another god taking those chains in hand.
Ghost did not request any of that.
Hornet, having spent the past few centuries desperately believing that all her siblings died in their eggshells, has learned the truth just in time to struggle with how to help a sibling who firmly believes that their own existence as a living thing is the most heinous of crimes.
Oro is not remotely pleased at having been pulled from his perfectly fine hut to help, and is most definitely not unusually invested here, thank you. No attachment whatsoever to someone who, despite being half-dead, still tries to make of themself a living shield. None at all.
(He’s also a bad liar.)
Friends and allies can only get you so far when someone’s greatest battle is against their own mind, and many things in this crumbling ruin of a kingdom are inclined to interfere in the matter. Not all that is dead is willing to stay dead, and the past is not content to remain in the past.
Nor are these the only Void-kin still alive.Series

Summary

The someone should perhaps have thought this over just slightly more.

Summary
Hornet finds herself with a little shadow. Not one she would have expected to see again, and not one she can bring herself to simply walk away from.
A good thing there's a convenient pool of warm water nearby. The little shadow is in dire need of a bath.

Summary
Kryptonians don't have daemons; it's not that they don't have souls, not at all. It's just another curious human thing, intriguing and different.
So that's probably why they send Clark to go face whatever supposed daemonic monster is haunting the streets of Gotham City.

Summary
“I found a sith,” Qui-Gon says over the crackle of the vessel's comms.
There is silence.
“A sith?” Plo repeats.
“Correct.”
“What kind of sith?”
Qui-Gon pauses again; this time, Plo can imagine him looking thoughtfully over his broad shoulder.
“A little one,” he finally answers.(AU where Qui-Gon brings both Obi-Wan and a young Maul back with him from Bandomeer, and Master Plo Koon trips and falls into taking on an unexpected apprentice.)

Summary
“Great, you’re in,” the Jedi says. “Welcome to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Mrs. Lars. Your quarters and uniform will be assigned to you shortly. Padawan Skeft will be here to escort you, please wait on the other side of this door.”
Shmi stands and nearly tumbles over herself.
“That’s it?” She asks, straightening her dress and bag.
The Jedi sniffs.
“That’s it,” they says. “You can—“
“I thought it would be more difficult to persuade you,” Shmi says.
“Ma’am,” the Jedi sighs, “We are an equal opportunity employer. Through the door, please.”(Shmi Skywalker is assaulted by too-real visions of her grandson in pain in the future. She gets a job at the Jedi Temple in order to prevent that from happening and soon after finds herself on a warship.)
