    Summary

    As agreed, McCoy waits to have his breakdown on the curb outside the diner until Jim is settling the bill.

    Jim finds him curled up over his knees making animalistic sounds and gives him a nudge with his shoe. "Are you any less of a miserable bastard once you’re not hungover?”

    “No.”

    Jim can respect that. “There’s a shuttleport in Iowa City. You need a lift?”

    [Jim misses a fight. Bones misses a shuttle. They don't miss Riverside at all].

    Summary

    The Enterprise's first mission is a boring one. Luckily, the ship more or less makes its own trouble, including: stills, toilet paper, lighting issues, awkward crewmembers, lunchroom seating politics, and, of course, the Admiralty.

    Or: How Jim Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Chain Of Command.

    Summary

    Barely a handful of months into the war, a dozen of the 501st who have noticed their general’s tendency to tinker come to him with a request.
     
    “General,” they ask, still nervous at the idea of making a request of a Jedi, “is there any chance you could get us some droid poppers with a little more… oomph?”

    ---

    Commander Appo receives the order to march on the Temple, and things go a little bit sideways. The Coruscant Guard couldn’t be more grateful.

    Summary

    “May Hades strike you for your disrespect,” mutters Zagreus. He has hardly any breath left, the world dimming. He tries to reach for his spear, but his fingers merely twitch.

    He didn’t intend the words as a summons. Would never, even now, knowingly call on the lord of Hades for help.

    But that is who appears in a foul cloud of brimstone shot through with bright sparks.

    OR: Hades may not esteem his son, but that doesn't mean he'll permit anyone else to disrespect him.

    Summary

    Captain Rex has been gathering evidence against his Jedi General for a year: casualty numbers, disobeyed orders, falsified reports. When he presents his case before the Jedi Council they are obligated to act, regardless of the fallout to the war effort or to those in Skywalker's orbit. Absent of better options, Obi-Wan assumes command of the 501st in addition to his own unit. He and Rex must lean on their families--and on each other--through what follows.
