    Summary

    Harry assumes the weight of a Legacy long forgotten and, with the help of an unlikely ally, conquers both time and (a truly astounding number of) Machiavellian plots to get the training and knowledge he needs to win a war.

    Certain adult wizards think they have everything planned out, but Fate and Destiny aren't matters one can manipulate to their own ends. Fate is forged; her warriors rise above and beyond all-- including mundane things like expectations.

    (And also Physics. The Laws of Reality and Rules of Magic were meant to be broken. Shattered. Semantics.)

    Summary

    Detective Brian O’Conner was an oddity among UC operatives.

    And for a simple, but also complex reason:

    The best UCs were rootless.

    They had no ties, no responsibilities or connections outside of their work to bog them down or trouble their minds during an operation.

    The best UCs could let everything else go and sink into their roles for however long was required to take down their targets.

    Of course, this also had a side-effect of risking the best UCs to going “native” or sinking so far into their roles that they turn from excellent officers of the law into the most frustrating criminals to catch as they end up creating the bonds that they lack outside of the job with the same targets they’re supposed to be spying on and gathering evidence to lock away.

    Brian O’Conner was an oddity in that not only was he one of the best UCs in the Los Angeles Police Department’s stable of officers, but he also had not only ties to life outside his work but potentially the strongest ones around:

    Brian O’Conner was soulmarked.
    And not merely once but five times.

    Summary

    This series explores two intertwined narratives: the adventures of time-traveling Obi-Wan and the reactions from the core, particularly the Jedi. It presents a Jedi-positive perspective but challenges the traditional notion of Jedi training. The series questions the importance of time in training versus the impact of experiences on a Jedi's potency. Drawing on examples from Legends, canon, and games, I posit that the skills of a Jedi could be taught to adults/teenagers in a relatively short time. It’s the mastery of self that would take the most time, and ultimately why the late-modern Republic’s Jedi training started with children.

    "To be sure. Lord Leyton's locked atop his tower with the Mad Maid, consulting books of spells. Might be he'll raise an army from the deeps." ~ Feast of Crows

    Summary

    The fact that Ronnel Arryn and his brother Jonos were so alike Tommen and Joffrey Lannister that there were several moments Sansa nearly slipped up and accidentally called her husband and goodbrother by the wrong names.
    Waking up nearly three centuries in the past has been a shock. Waking up nearly three centuries in the past married to a grown-up version of Tommen Baratheon even more shocking. After she escaped Jonos Arryn, the Joffrey-esque vermin scheming to toss her and the other Sansa Stark's children out the Moon Door, she would probably have to do something about the Others, the dragons, and traitors.
