    Summary

    Loki did not plan for anything after his desperate, last-ditch attempt to thwart Thanos's play for the Tesseract, more than half-convinced that it would result in his death.

    Miraculously, however, he survived. Even more miraculously, he snatched not one but two Infinity Gems from the Titan's grasp. For half a moment, he contemplated returning to Asgard, allowing Thor to chain him and Odin to lock him away. The Realm Eternal was supposedly the safest place in the Nine, the one place the Titan might hesitate to seek him.

    Yet Loki had spent far too long in a cage.

    Loki makes a different decision after the events of The Avengers, and the ripples spread ever outwards.

    Summary

    The Force has started talking to Mace Windu. Normally, that would be a cause for concern. However, it currently just seems to want to talk about its child.

    Mace wants to know since when the Force has a child, and apparently a girlfriend, and also frees some slaves.

    Summary

    When Anakin receives an order from the force for the first time in many years, he rushes to obey and yearns the deep connection he used to have with the force in years past. In the process he learns about his fate, balancing the force, and what exactly it means to be the chosen one.

    Summary

    Had Anakin truly been this thin, this malnourished and sickly, when he first arrived at the Temple? Had his clothes always been so ill-fitting and threadbare, his boots barely holding together?

    And had none of them—not one of their twelve—recognized his circumstances and offered him compassion?

    -----

    One moment, Mace watches in horror as Anakin betrays the Jedi Order and becomes a Sith Lord.

    The next, he finds himself at the Temple a decade before the start of the war, and encounters a half-starved nine-year-old boy in threadbare clothing.

    Or, Mace Windu has a chance to redo the first meeting between himself and Anakin Skywalker and takes the opportunity to make things right.

    Summary

    “Sammy,” his father breathes, the word trembling with horror yet still somehow managing to travel to the other side of the farmhouse, where it burrows deep into Sam’s brain and heart. “Your… your eyes.”

    Sam jerks back in surprise, glancing around until he catches a glimpse of a metal hook, hanging right by his head. He peers at it, trying to make out his warped reflection in the dull meta—

    No.

    Oh, God, no.

    Sam raises a trembling hand to his face, trailing it towards the pools of inky darkness where his eyes should be, shifting and swirling with depth like a nest of shadows. The sight of it is so—so monstrous, so wrong, and Sam can’t even recognise himself in it.

    This can’t—this can’t be real.

    As he stares at the monster wearing his face, not even daring to blink, the darkness leaks out of his eyes, leaving their normal hazel. But even in the absence of that otherworldly blackness, he can still see it, the monster, lurking behind a young face and innocent eyes.


    Sam's powers manifest earlier. John doesn't take too kindly to it.
