Summary
Obi-Wan narrowed his eyes. "Who are you?" He asked, hoping a direct question would yield answers. The old man seemed adept at side-stepping information when asked a bit more deftly. “I’ve never heard of a Master with your level of talent.”
The old man seemed surprised. “If you’ve never heard of one like me, then what good would my name be? You wouldn’t know it.”
Obi-Wan felt a flare of irritation, and quickly squashed it. The old man blinked, as if he hadn’t expected to feel that, and he smiled, sadly. “My name is Luke,” he said, as if a peace offering.
The force trilled in his ear, and Obi-Wan frowned. "Luke what?" He asked, and the old man, this Luke, smiled wryly.
"Luke Skywalker.”

we are both kneeling begging for forgiveness by Fleetling

Summary
"Fuck you," she says again. "Live with the consequences of your actions, you idiot."
"Always knew you cared," Booker slurs. "You don't need to save everyone, Andy."
Andy takes one breath in, then lets it out. She doesn't dignify Booker with a response. She picks him up instead, one arm beneath his shoulders and the other beneath his knees, avoiding his injuries as much as possible.
Quỳnh struggles to her feet, then takes a step forward.
"You'll hurt yourself more, walking," Andy tells her.
That's how she ends up carrying them both out, both breathing. She's desperate, in a way that she so rarely is. She feels like a wounded prey animal, despite being the only uninjured person here.

Summary
"We are not anything to each other," Quỳnh repeats, three days later.
Andy pauses, still holding out a cup of mango juice. "I know," she says.
"Why, then?" Quỳnh asks. Her face is a little wind-burned, and she looks furious, all of a sudden.
Andy shrugs, because there's nothing else she can do. Her throat feels bare, despite the choker she's taken to wearing against that very feeling. "You're on my team," she says. "I'm not - I'm not saying you're mine. I know you're not."
OR: on the way to rescue the rest of their team, Andy and Quỳnh fall in love again.

Summary
Jerusalem had fallen. Now, on top of the indignity of having to walk - walk! - to Alexandria to avoid getting shot out of the sky, Yusuf al-Kaysani has the double misfortune of being saddled with a filthy, empty-headed, exasperating Frank who doesn't even seem to know what his wings are for.
But after an explosion of temper reveals something about his enemy that Yusuf could never have fathomed in a thousand years, Yusuf finds himself looking at his companion in a whole new light. Suddenly tasked with helping Nicolo achieve a dream, an unexpected spark of compassion is born, that leads to forgiveness, to friendship, to all and more.
Every love story is a kind of dance.
Or - Yusuf and Nicolo live in a world where everyone has wings. It changes a lot about their world, and nothing about them.
