Summary
Two years ago Pearl and Grian moved to the capital looking for work and a safe haven where they could be themselves. Clubs where Grian could go dancing in a dress, if he wanted to, and spaces where Pearl could speak her mind and be listened to regardless of her gender and hybrid nature. But life has a cruel humor, and the recession hit not even a week after they arrived. Struggling to survive between odd jobs and completely disillusioned, Pearl and Grian take it upon themselves to protect their city and the people it doesn't seem to care for as the vigilantes Moonfly and Sunrise, when the absolute worst thing that ever happened to Pearl comes back to haunt her 13 years later.
___
The setting is heavily inspired by early 1930s Berlin because that's what I know, but it is a made-up world with worldbuilding happening in the background. Still, as tagged, this fic will touch on themes of discrimination both personal and structural against queer people, women, and ethnic minorities (here mainly represented by the various hybrids). It is a dark time in their world as it was in ours, but their world's fate might not be as grim.

Summary
Jango and Obi-Wan hijack a freighter and go on a galactic road trip to kill a man.
or;
Montross is a little cleverer on Korda VI. Jango ends up tossed into the cargo hold of 'The Stryker', a slaver freighter taking him to parts unknown and well out of Montross's way. Melida/Daan, weakened by its infighting and the Young suffering catastrophic losses, are raided by opportunistic slavers, resulting in Obi-Wan captured as a prize to be sold to a 'special' client - Force sensitive slaves are, after all, valuable cargo (and there is a dark shadow in the galaxy always on the look out for forgotten, powerful Force sensitives).
By sheer luck - or maybe the Force - they're locked in cages beside each other. They plan, they escape... and the future shifts.

Summary
“What the fuck are you doing here?” Angel spat. The last thing he wanted to see, leaving the studio after a grueling 16 hours was his brother. How long had it been since he’d seen Arackniss? It wasn’t since his first decade or so in Hell. Arackniss dying young in a gunfight, even if not nearly as young as Angel.
