    Summary

    It's been about a year since the barrier fell, and a lot has changed - though not in very surprising ways. People are still jerks to anyone new and different, you're still freaked out by the idea of getting serious with anyone, your job is still weird and awesome. Oh, and your cat still has seriously no chill.
    Also there is skeleton dong and small corporate politics.
    "But it's too long!" You say. That's exactly the sort of attitude that stops me from making boxed mac and cheez when EasyMac's right there. Don't be like me. If you're going to indulge in trash, commit to it, man.
    I mean also eventually the plotting gets so tight you could bounce a quarter off it.

    Summary

    They buy the 200 fucking pound fountain. It is infuriatingly cheap, and unspeakably difficult to maneuver into any space without removing paint from said space. Rex has to come out and help them hoist it into the garage and several hours pass around the kitchen table, drinking scalding hot mint tea and plotting. Plotting. Plotting.

    They’re going to have to bolt the thing down somehow or else people are going to just steal it right from the center of the roundabout. Cody has about twenty bags of unused cement in his garage and some bolts big enough to get through it if need be.

    He looks at Wolffe. Wolffe looks at Rex.

    (Retired Commander Cody moves into a new neighborhood and becomes furious at the way a nearby roundabout is treated as a dumpsite. He installs a giant Jedi Crest fountain dead in the center of it and accidentally creates a safe place for the diasporic Jedi community to worship.)

    Summary

    “When the cottage is done, if you want to go home, we will tell the Council that you want to,” Qui-Gon says at the inn's ceiling. “But you have to promise me that you will try some Stewjoni things. They will want to see that you’ve tried to participate in the culture, Obi-Wan.”

    “I don’t want to," Obi-Wan snaps.

    (As part of their mutual probation period after Melida/Daan, the council sends Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to the town of Coan-Connach on Stewjon, so that Obi-Wan can decide if he wants to continue with on the path to become a jedi or if he would like to return to his family. Coan-Connach, however, is a small town struggling to keep up its idyllic facade).

    Summary

    Just before his eleventh birthday, Harry is found in a dark London alleyway. He is subsequently taken to stay in the home of one Severus Snape until he begins Hogwarts. Harry isn't quite sure what possessed him to agree to this arrangement, and Severus has no intention of allowing Potter's unfortunate progeny to get under his skin, but this is a Severitus fic, we all know how it ends.

    Summary

    While Mando’a is undoubtedly the conlang with the most extensive vocabulary, it is not the soundest Star Wars conlang from a linguistic perspective. That honor belongs to the version of the Sith conlang that was later amended and developed by Ben Grossblatt. The Sith Code, as we know it, was developed by David Gaider in 2003 for the game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Grossblatt’s conlang was created seven years later in 2010.

    When you consider this, Grossblatt had two options when creating his conlang and translation of the Code. He could translate the Code from English into Sith, or he could pretend the English (or “Basic”) version of the Code resulted from a translation from Sith.

    TLDR: I took a look at the English version of the Sith Code and decided it doesn't quite pick up all the nuances the text has in the Sith conlang and proceeded to write 3.000 words analyzing it.
