Summary
The stranger moved his hand to his staff. "Yer not gonna bite my fingers off if I untie ya, right?"
"… Did you tie me up because you thought I was going to eat you?"
"Kinda."
Pfft, that's hilarious. "Wow, and here I thought you were cool." Rudo mocks, because an amused voice is about as close to laughing as he's ever been able to get.- or - Regto gets taken by the apostles, causing Rudo to be left all alone at 8 and eventually thrown in the pit at 10 instead of 15. This changes nothing and everything.
- or - Enjin tries to take in one kid named Zanka, not knowing the kid is a tragic orphan magnet. Now he's a single father of five.

Summary
What if Rudo hadn't been 15 years old when he was send down into the pit, but was only a small 10-year-old instead? This story follows the main story, making changes along the way. Everyone else is the same age. What would this little fact change? What would stay the same?

Summary
Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano are captured by the Mandalorian Empire on a mission to protect Padme Amidala. The good news is: they all succesfully hide their identities so they easily escape the Integration centre, they get forced into, which was not adapted to keep Jedi trapped. The bad news: none of them are very good at keeping a low profile. At all.
“Barriss Offee is one of Ahsoka’s new classmates.”
“Is she…?”
“...integrated?” Ahsoka finished his question. “Yes but she still promised she wouldn’t tell on us being here.”
“Could she be lying?”
“Sure, but what could we do about it?”
“I got promoted,” Anakin tried to hide his enthusiasm. “I am now allowed to repair beskar'gam for the palace guard.”
Padme rubbed her eyes. “Well talking about promotions… I guess I am now the president of the parent teacher association of Ahsoka's school.”
Obi-Wan sighed. “How did every single one of us managed to make our situation even worse than it already was?”
Anakin looked at him with narrowed eyes. “Every single one of us?”
Obi-Wan closed his eyes, took a deep breath and answered. “I slept with the Mand’alor’s son.”

Summary
“You’re working with cops,” the kid said. It wasn’t a question. Pure judgment and distain wrapped into four words. More opinionated on the police system than Peter was comfortable with for a kid barely out of elementary school.
Neal crossed his arms. “I am.”
“B hates cops.”
“B hates a lot of things.”
“He hates cops especially.”“If I wasn’t allowed to do half the things B hated, I’d be unemployed,” Neal replied, voice drier than Peter had ever heard. “And a Monk.”

Summary
This is little moments from the movie where I want, ‘wow I wonder how Juds alluded to previous life impacts how he thinks and feels in these scenes. It must really suck’ and then I wrote all that down.
—————
Jud feels the fist of Monsignor Wicks collide with his stomach.
“You’re angry, you should be. It’d be dangerois if you weren’t,”
The Monsignor is speaking to him. He knows that, but it’s not just the Monsignor’s fist he feels. It’s his first fight in the ring, and it’s the fist of his father, and it’s the fist of the man he killed in the ring. It’s hard to keep straight whose fist it is because in the moment Jud’s mind remembers a hundred punches just like this one.
