Summary
Dr. Liu,
Got your final report yesterday on Project LV-426. I'm amazed. Great work all around. It's been forwarded to the Chair, our friends at the Pentagon, the Defense Appropriations Committee, and DARPA. The acid-resistant armor is something that should really catch their eye.
We're expecting some big grant money from this.
Burke
Burke,
Did you read even the executive summary of my report? There are some interesting biomaterials that we could work with, but I stressed, multiple times, that this creature is far too dangerous to even consider using in military research projects. It's aggressive, stupid, vicious, aggressive, impossible to train, and did I mention aggressive?
. . .their limbs work on hydraulic principles and operate under pressure, which is why they splurt like a popped water balloon when they get hit in those Marine camera feeds we saw. A slight wound to a limb takes them right the hell out of commission, and now your troops have to deal with an insanely aggressive and stupid xenomorphic K-9 unit that oh by the way IS BLEEDING ACID.

Summary
It was just supposed to be a drink or two at Dean's Christmas party to mollify her sister, but soon Amy was seeing stars and getting kicked out of her house. Unfortunately, both rent and booze were expensive, so Amy finally gave in and decided to charge for healing — and modifications. And when Amy stumbled upon an injured newbie hero on her way home one cold January night, neither of them were prepared for the royal disaster their lives would become. After all, it made sense at the time...

Summary
By an old Republic law, all members of the Jedi High Council are senators in the Galactic Senate, and can thus be voted in as chancellor. A Senator from a less prominent planet has had enough of Chancellor Palpatine's incompetence and calls for a Vote of No-Confidence and the installation of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi as Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic.
This one action becomes the catalyst that changes the direction of the galaxy.
or “Obi-Wan’s Life Gets Worse (Though It’s Not As Bad As It Could’ve Been)”.

Summary
“Doctor! It’s spiking again.”
To which, the Cube sparked one more --a much larger spike to the previous.
“What’s that?”
Before Fury could so much as tense, eye on the Cube, it sparked again --for the ground and walls to visibly shake.
It continued to spark some more, bigger each time - to which a beam of energy was suddenly brought forth and -an explosion...Once visual on the platform returned, it was only for Fury to tense further.
Confusion and concern ran through him as he took in the several unknowns now of the platform, each more confusing than the last. In the centre was a dark haired kid - ten or eleven if Fury had to guess - complete with a bloodied sword in his hand. Yet, they were not the oddest thing. That was reserved to the brightest tropical bird he had ever seen, complete with a wide colourful wing span and a long back tail rivalling that of a peacock’s, which flew in suspension above the boy.(Note, 11th July 2021: Story is NOT Abandoned (real life - which includes Post grad thesis - is slowing down my writing) Thank you for all the kudos and comments ppl have left so far)

Summary
Cadet Strife was an unmitigated nightmare of the likes which had never graced Shinra's doorstep either before or after his employment. Sephiroth couldn't shake the overwhelming sensation that Strife was perhaps a little too knowledgeable about the company's inner workings for a cadet only a week into his employment with the company.

Summary
"Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."
Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.
"Really, uncle?"
"Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."
Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?
