    Summary

    Choose to do something, Caleb said. Leave it better than it was before. And Essek imagines closing his hands over those scarred wrists and pleading, how?

    He hovers a moment longer. Then he drifts into the kitchen.

    This is ridiculous. This is pathetic. Caleb told him to do something, and he’s chosen baking.

    (In which, if Jester Lavorre asks for cupcakes, you provide cupcakes. Even in the midst of a morality crisis.)

    Summary

    Simon waited.

    Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.

    But that never came.

    Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”

    Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

    Summary

    Obi-Wan meets Cody for the first time when his niece and nephew almost light his house on fire. 

    (Obi-Wan Kenobi and Cody Fett find their way into love slowly but steadily. There's broken bones, too much sooty turnout gear, late hours spent at EMT class, three kids, ten brothers and two adopted siblings, two weddings, and all number of laughs and inside jokes along the way. It's worth it, in the end. Family's always worth it.)

    Summary

    “You told me,” Ben says hoarsely, into the silence. “You told me once that you chose your name because you wanted to make your own kind of glory.”

    There are very few people who know that. Most of them are dead.

    “Glory,” Ben continues. “Kote. Cody. It is you, isn’t it?”

    “You know me,” Cody manages. “How do you know me?”

    Ben reaches up towards his own helmet, very slowly. Cody is helpless as he pulls it off, lets it rest in the space between them, and looks Cody dead in the eye for the first time in six years.

    “You said it yourself,” Obi-Wan Kenobi says. “You killed me.”

    ***

    Glory wants a job. Obi-Wan wants his nephew. Luke wants a bantha. Also, there's a crime syndicate and a love story worked out somewhere in the middle.

    Summary

    All Cody wanted from the Jedi was a competent, fair general; so that he could focus on keeping his men safe, and maybe trying to live up to the name Jango Fett had bestowed on him.

    Nothing could have prepared him for Kenobi save for the experience itself: crashing across the galaxy, from caf-and-stims-fueled battlefield highs down to heady fluorescent ship-side lows.

    But then, he supposes, this war had a habit of exceeding his expectations, in all the best and worst ways. This is that story through Cody's eyes.
