    Summary

    “I know I said I was up for anything--” he told Hogarth carefully, trying to surreptitiously slide the files back onto her desk.

    She slapped a hand on them and pushed them back towards him.

    “Mr. Nelson, you are one of the best lawyers on staff, and I am seriously considering the pros and cons of a potential partnership here,” she told him, staring up at him without moving her face or hand. Somehow, the files continued to dig into the meat of his palm.

    “--but it turns out,” he valiantly carried on, “I am actually and suddenly extremely busy with the destruction Jessica will cause in approximately twenty minutes, which will have nothing to do with me or any favors or bribes or anything like that—” 

    (Someone brings Team Red's (and the Punisher's) loved ones back from the dead to torture them for information on their vigilantes. Hogarth coerces Foggy to handle the resulting legal fallout and he is both the worst and best person for the job.)

    Summary

    There is no way to tell which memory is her first. If she had to choose, she would pick the eyes; they were so bright, so mesmerizing. Or perhaps the pain; the overwhelming, nauseating pain in her abdomen. Or maybe the cold…

    Sage, she’d been so cold.

    When Jiraiya catches Orochimaru with an infant girl from one of his experiments, Orochimaru does what he does best: lies.

    (Or: that fic where Orochimaru fakes a redemption arc.)

    Summary

    It was a widely known fact within the Temple, that the Temple Guards stationed at the Coruscant Temple were experiencing a ‘shortage’ at the moment. Seeing as Knights were sent out to complete missions and went on protective details, they were also the Corp that was responsible for the Temple Guards.
    -

    “I may have an issue.”

    “What is it?”

    The boy was alone. No one else was around despite it being the middle of the night. Just the boy who made a bee-line for Obi-Wan. He was way too young to be out at this time let alone out here all alone. It was the boy’s training armour that tipped Obi-wan off that this was more than just a lost child.

    “I have a youngling in front of me. There is no one else around and I am pretty sure he’s Mandalorian.”

    Quinlan paused, then asked, “...Come again?”

    Obi-Wan peered down at the child tugging at his arm. “Aran, ner echoy'la.”

    Kriff. “Correction, I have a Mandalorian boy in front of me telling me he’s lost.”
    -

    Or it’s Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi’s turn to be a Temporary Temple Guard and of course one of his past missions comes back to haunt him.

    Summary

    It was supposed to be a simple mission. Investigate a possible gang and protect a minister. Obi-Wan wasn't supposed to find a child that burned like the sun in the force. He definitely wasn't supposed to get kidnapped by the Jedi's ancient enemy. He needs to find a way to get back home and protect Anakin.

    Only the True Mandalorians don't act the way he expects them too. Jaster was kind in a way Qui-Gon wasn't, Arla made him think of his friends, and Jango seemed almost too forgiving towards being stabbed. Not to mention that something was happening in the outer rim and him being on Mandalore might just change the course of the galaxy for the better.

    Maybe he didn't want to go home.
    Maybe him messing up doesn't have to end painfully.
