    Summary

    The Sith Lord Darth Vader lived his life. He probably didn't live it well, but he lived it as well as he knew how. At the end there, he'd even managed to woman up and kill Sidious. But he was dying, and at peace with the past.

    The past wasn't at peace with him.

    Summary

    It’s supposed to be an easy, if annoying, mission - escort some senators to a planet for relief aid and a few photo-ops. It leads to pirates, kidnappings, and infiltrating Count Dooku’s palace on Serenno. It leads to the end of the war and the start of a relationship Cody never knew he could want, let alone have.

    Summary

    What would happen if all the Jedi loved their friends, family, spouses, or troops too deeply to accept the horrific losses in the Clone Wars? They would all Fall. And if all the Jedi Generals are actually Sith, Order 66 would not work as planned.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A wonderful AU in which pretty much all the Jedi Order fall. This is one of those stories that is crack, but at the same time extremely moving and poignant. The author is clearly a genius.
    Things that stuck in my head last time I read this:
    * Another story with a moveable Temple
    * This is the one where Anakin has parasitic vines in his mindscape representative of some of the damage Palpatine had done to him

    Summary

    Anakin has a weird feeling in his stomach as he walks away from the Chancellor’s office.

    Who would have thought that Chancellor Palpatine would be a student of the Sith? Only to know how to keep the Republic safe from them, of course. All those priceless artifacts and holocrons that he’s collected to keep safe, hidden in his private rooms.

    It’s a good thing that he isn’t Force-sensitive, Anakin thinks with a small laugh, because the energy coming from all those things would have driven the poor man mad in a day. He only spent maybe twenty minutes in the room, just long enough to look at the piece the Chancellor thought might be of use to him, and his head was still spinning.

    What if Anakin went to Obi-Wan with honesty after the Chancellor made his play?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Instead of fighting Anakin, Obi-Wan has a nervous breakdown on Mustafar. Anakin, unsurprisingly, takes excessive measures in response. Chaos, and a brighter future, ensue.
