    Summary

    It was a widely known fact within the Temple, that the Temple Guards stationed at the Coruscant Temple were experiencing a ‘shortage’ at the moment. Seeing as Knights were sent out to complete missions and went on protective details, they were also the Corp that was responsible for the Temple Guards.

    “I may have an issue.”

    “What is it?”

    The boy was alone. No one else was around despite it being the middle of the night. Just the boy who made a bee-line for Obi-Wan. He was way too young to be out at this time let alone out here all alone. It was the boy’s training armour that tipped Obi-wan off that this was more than just a lost child.

    “I have a youngling in front of me. There is no one else around and I am pretty sure he’s Mandalorian.”

    Quinlan paused, then asked, “...Come again?”

    Obi-Wan peered down at the child tugging at his arm. “Aran, ner echoy'la.”

    Kriff. “Correction, I have a Mandalorian boy in front of me telling me he’s lost.”
    -

    Or it’s Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi’s turn to be a Temporary Temple Guard and of course one of his past missions comes back to haunt him.

    Summary

    Jon had jinxed it.

    In the middle of the kriffing night, he had shot awake with the intense urge to go, the Force apparently having decided he was rested enough. He was up and in the cockpit of his small ship before he even registered moving.

    Summary

    The last thing Carlton expected was for the Chief to inform him that he would be taking the person he's been dating for the past four months to a law enforcement retreat. This wasn't how he had anticipated introducing his significant other to his coworkers at the station. Especially because he wasn't dating anyone.

    Thankfully, there's Shawn Spencer, barista and psychic(??), to the rescue.

    Summary

    Dying is, of course, incredibly tragic. It is also the most wonderful opportunity.

    Alternately:

    [“Oh, there’s no point.” Said Pat bitterly, “Julian already told me about Italia ’90. He’s ruined that as well.”

    Alison took a breath. “Pat,” She said gently, “It’s a compilation of an entire decade. Even Julian can’t spoil a whole decade.”

    “Oh yes I can! Party conference, ’88, Anne Widdecombe told me I’d ruined her whole month but I’d barely gotten the engine running, only asked -in the spirit of charity- if she fancied popping round the back by which I mean-”

    And finally she could hold it no longer. In a glorious moment completely devoid of thought Alison reached out and fulfilled the desire of her last fifty years on earth.

    She cuffed Julian upside the back of the head.]
