    Summary

    Post-TLJ, the Force bond won’t close. Rey and Kylo Ren remain connected across the galaxy, and despite everything, they can’t stop talking to each other. About war. About right and wrong. About each other. The arguments should push them apart—they pull them closer instead.

    Then she’s ambushed on Nar Shaddaa, and Rey learns exactly how far the Supreme Leader will go to get her back.

    Some decisions dirty your hands. Some choices have no right answers. And some monsters will burn the galaxy down before they let you die.

    A canon divergence story exploring moral complexity, the cost of war, and what happens when enemies fall in love across battle lines.

    Summary

    Rey landed a job caring for the daughter of the enigmatic ocean conservationist, Ben Solo. The lifestyle of the rich is crazy, and it’s almost enough to distract from other things, like how the estate manager Hux goes away on the full moon, the sweet housekeeper Rose sometimes smells like blood… and the seals on the shore go mad when Ben gets near.
    But the most mysterious thing of all is that she and Ben strike up an unlikely friendship.

    A Jane Eyre/paranormal AU. Enjoy!

    P.S. This is a fairly soft Ben Solo; he's got some trauma, but he's been dealing with it and is (more or less) ready for a healthier relationship.

    Summary

    Seventeen-year-old Rey Niima moves to the small mountain town of Red Hollow, West Virginia, after losing both her parents and being forced to live with her hostile stepfather, Unker. Trying to survive her junior year unnoticed, Rey becomes fast friends with Rose Tico—one of the only bright spots in her new life.

    But everything changes the day she bumps into Mr. Solo, the school’s strict, intimidating, and undeniably magnetic history teacher. He is cold, unreadable, and surrounded by rumors—and yet Rey senses something else beneath the surface.

    As a string of murders spreads fear through the town—each victim a teenage girl who looks eerily similar to Rey—strange things begin happening in the forests that border Red Hollow. Mr. Solo seems to know far more than he should. He watches Rey, protects her, avoids her… and is haunted by something he refuses to name.

    Drawn into a world of danger, secrecy, and forbidden connection, Rey begins to wonder:
    Is Mr. Solo the only one who can save her—
    or the one she should be running from?

    Summary

    “There’s no shame in it, by the way,” Ben murmurs over his shoulder, the barest hit of teasing creeping back in along the edges of his low voice. An unmistakable downward dip of his eyes that she does not understand nor wish to analyse.

    “What?” Rey mutters quietly, feeling as though all the fight has left her mind and body.

    “Not knowing certain things… and needing a teacher.”

     

    (In which Rey tries to navigate her new life on the Resistance’s base while the newly-defected Ben Solo makes himself the bane of her existence)
