    Summary

    Laurence desires nothing more than to retire to Tharkay's estate and help Temeraire get to Parliament, for what more could he want than a place in Britain with space enough for a dragon, and the company of a dear friend? But wars rarely end so neatly. Bellicose lords, Bourbon princes, errant heirs and shadowy forces threaten to undermine the very peace that Laurence and Temeraire fought to obtain, and ruin the happiness that Laurence was just beginning to glimpse.

    Summary

    By an old Republic law, all members of the Jedi High Council are senators in the Galactic Senate, and can thus be voted in as chancellor. A Senator from a less prominent planet has had enough of Chancellor Palpatine's incompetence and calls for a Vote of No-Confidence and the installation of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi as Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic.

    This one action becomes the catalyst that changes the direction of the galaxy.

    or “Obi-Wan’s Life Gets Worse (Though It’s Not As Bad As It Could’ve Been)”.

    Summary

    It didn't really take much to convince the Vode to rebel against the Kaminoans.

    And it was only a little more effort for them to organise themselves into a government that would be accepted by the Republic.

    Convincing the newly crowned King Cody to take a Jedi spouse was a different story. However, sometimes you needed to bit the blaster fire and invoke centuries old laws to ensure that the Senate won't stab you and the four million warriors you are responsible for in the back.

    Poor Obi-Wan Kenobi just so happens to be unfortunate enough to be caught in the crossfire.

    ----

    Or

    A universe where Jango Fett actually takes responsibility for his people and acts like the Mandalorian he should.

    And just so happens to mess up all of Palpatine's plans in the process

    Summary

    “I’m gonna give you one chance to get out of here,” Ichigo warns them, voice low and even, heart beating a steady and calm rhythm in his chest.

    He feels like he can breathe again.

    “You’re gonna fuckin' regret that,” one of the thugs snarls, a knife flashing in his hand too.

    “Don’t say I didn’t warn you,” Ichigo shrugs.

    The thug scoffs and seven of his friends laugh even as the eighth continues to whimper over his destroyed arm.

    Ichigo smiles.

    Summary

    Prince William, Duke of Avondale, third son of the Prince of Wales, fourth in the line of succession for the British Crown, has always known how he was meant to lead his life; surrounded by protocol, hounded by media, coddled by the state. And, recently, protected by one Tenzing Tharkay.
