Summary
“Someone on my ship needs medical aid more than we're capable of. We can offer our services and information in return,” the man said. “Oh, and I'm Cal –”
“ –Kestis?” Ezra looked to Kanan, who was frozen in shock. Disbelief and something like hope leaked through their Force bond. “...Cal Kestis?”
The man's gaze snapped over to Kanan with confusion. “What've you heard –?” His eyes narrowed and he leaned forward. That, and the way he cocked his head looked familiar to Ezra, but he couldn't place why. A small warm pulse in the Force further befuddled him. The man's eyes widened slowly. “...Caleb?”
~~~
Ezra and the Ghost crew get to meet a friend Kanan never thought he'd see again. And Kanan gains a new perspective on love and attachment.

Summary
The Z-Team didn’t like Robert.
They were villains. They were fuck ups. They each had a giant chip on their shoulders that barely let them stand next to each other on a good day. As soon as his voice first came on the group call, they had to give him shit. If they didn’t start harassing him, the Blonde Boss Lady would have benched them thinking they were being mind controlled.
Every handler thought they could “handle” the Phoenix team. Tame them, make them palatable, water them down. Turn them good. So they didn’t like Robert.
But they did like his voice.

Summary
“It’s not a real kid, Chase.”
Chase is technically underage, he’s a year away from being able to drink but the bartender didn’t bother to check his ID. Chase has always looked a little older than he was, it works in his favor now.
Nobody at a hero bar like this would assume he was so young.
“How the fuck do you think that?” Chase asks, spits. His hands still shake with the memory of it. The beer in his hand shakes with the tremors of his hands. “How the fuck do you do it?”
Mechaman sighs, deep, disappointed. He leans back, taking his whiskey with him.
The rest of the Brave Brigade was downstairs, drinking in victory, dancing with the other heroes, celebrating.
“It’s the Astral Pulse.”
