    Summary

    Time-travel fix-it: Din Djarin wakes up days before the Clone Wars begin, and embarks on a quest to save his child, find his allies, and figure out what the hell he's supposed to do with this stupid lasersword that ended up coming with him. If it's convenient, he figures he might as well try to save his people, maybe the Jedi, and probably the galaxy. With the help of his friends, it might just be within reach.

    Summary

    The thing is, Sheila is sorry. She made a mistake, a very big mistake, but it's not like he doesn't have any responsibility in it, either. And really, how many times must she apologize before he understands she's really trying here? He's lucky, really, to get a second chance at having a mother, after losing the first. What would Bruce and Dick think, if they knew he was wasting this opportunity and being ungrateful? She saved his life, after all. So why can't he get past it?
    Jason's trying, he really is. But it would be so much easier, if only she would stop smoking.

    Summary

    Once upon a time, on a faraway planetoid (or maybe moon, or possibly asteroid – the tales disagreed), there was a man. Some versions of the story said “soldier,” others “leader,” and one or two went as far as “king.” Regardless, this leader, and some of (a few of, many of, hundreds of) his followers were there, asleep. Waiting. In the galaxy’s darkest hour, when all hope was lost, they would wake from their slumber and return, defeating all evil that threatened the galaxy.

     

    Rex never intended to become part of a fairy tale. But with Order 66 happening around them and all the troopers of the 332nd about to kill them, Rex and Ahsoka are willing to do whatever it takes to keep everyone alive. A slightly different trajectory through space leads to a very different landing for the 332nd, and a very different trajectory for Ahsoka, Rex, and the galaxy.

    Summary

    “You want one of us to just volunteer to get tortured by you for who knows how long in order for us to get our troopers back?” Skywalker asks incredulously.

     

    “In essence, yes,” Raschek answers with total unconcern.

    Skywalker is opening his mouth, no doubt to yell at Raschek more, but Rex preempts him.

    “I’ll do it. I’ll take your bargain and trade myself for them, and you’ll give them back to us alive.”

    ---

    A single moment of compassion has far greater consequences than anyone could have predicted.
