Summary
She grew up knowing her senses were much more acute than those of her peers, that she was likely to notice their presence before they noticed hers, that she was more naturally aware of the local wildlife.
But this was different. Ever since she woke up in her Master’s arms on Mortis it had been different.
She had been different.
(Some musings as the trio leave Mortis. Ahsoka adjusts and Anakin worries.)

Summary
It has been almost a decade since former Jedi Investigator Harry Du Bois woke up on a dirty floor with amnesia, met Detective Kitsuragi, rediscovered how to be a Jedi, got sober, and saved the Princess of Alderaan from kidnapping (not necessarily in that order).
Unfortunately, the Empire has not stood still and while Harry has gotten better the Galaxy has gotten much, much worse.
(or, AU where Obi-Wan refused to leave Tatooine to rescue Leia during Kenobi and the task fell to a reliable Alderaani detective and the only other Jedi whose number Bail had)

Summary
"The Dai Bendu language was spoken by the members of the ancient Order of Dai Bendu on the frozen planet of Ando Prime. The name of the Je'daii Order was forged in that language."
"Every language is like a one-of-a-kind species. It captures unique conceptualizations of the world and has its own ways of constructing words, phrases and sentences for communicating ideas. As we compare the words and structures of various languages, we come to a greater understanding of our world. (...) Language captures how we perceive the world around us and how we relate to one another, it defines who we are. The Mother tongue language we grow up with is the one used to express what is in our hearts; our heart language."
"Studying language is invaluable for learning about other cultures and mapping their respective developments, histories, myths, customs, etc. Linguistics also helps us understand and document geographical /environmental influences, periods of migration/diaspora, origin of certain spiritual beliefs, etc. through the study of things like cognates, shared myths between cultures, language families, and tracking differences in word usage and dialects over a long period of time."

Summary
An AU in which the New Mandalorians are the Borg and the Jinn-Kenobi mission to Mandalore went very, very differently. Roughly a year after his initial assimilation, Obi-Wan is finally liberated from the Collective. However, his time as a Borg drone will have a lasting impact beyond just some remaining cybernetics.
(No knowledge of Star Trek required. My Borg originated entirely within the gffa and have no narrative connection to the Trek universe, though I try to keep them fairly accurate to their Trek counterparts in terms of function and inner-workings).

Summary
Because you do love Harry. You love him as much as a brother, far more than you love yourself. Perhaps more than anyone else loves Harry Du Bois, because Harry Du Bois does not even love himself.
Because even Harry knows loving him is a losing affair. Has known as much since Dora left him. He is incapable of love much like you, but not for the same reason. His ability to love was broken by life; yours was broken from birth.

Summary
01
The beginning of the series "The Revachol Case Files"A man returns. This is not remarkable – men return to places all the time. They return to apartments, to jobs, to mistakes they swore they'd left behind. But this man returns to a precinct that carries his damage in its walls, and on the morning he walks back through the door, he finds another returning man in the basement.
That one didn't make it.
Something is missing from the files of Precinct 41. Pages torn. Connections severed. A pattern erased so carefully it looks like nothing was ever there – unless you're the kind of person who notices the shape of absence. Gaël Bronson was that kind of person. It cost him everything.
Now Harry Du Bois is sitting at the dead man's desk, reading the dead man's notes, chasing the dead man's ghost through decades of institutional silence. He has a partner who carries a flashlight and a binder. He has a captain who shuffled him this case like a grenade with the pin half-pulled. He has nineteen days of sobriety and a thought taking shape in his skull that he can't yet name.
Something is rotting in the walls of Precinct 41, and it has learned to clean up after itself.Series
