Summary
“Right,” Fili said. “We need to all stay alive, then. That shouldn’t be too hard.”
“You try it,” Bilbo muttered. “See how well you do.”
~
By a curse or a blessing from the Valar, Bilbo finds himself repeating the same horrific day of war outside of Erebor again and again. His repeats are always triggered when someone from the company falls. He suffers days and days on his own before the others begin to repeat the day with him.
One would think that with the whole company, an elf king, and a bowman all knowing what was to come, Bilbo would have an easier time getting them all through the day alive.
One would think that, wouldn't they.

Double Agent Vader by Fialleril
Fandom Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy
06 Dec 2017
Summary
The one where Vader turned double agent for the Rebellion about three years after ROTS, and Leia is now his primary contact with the Rebellion.
This is a collection of oneshots that all fit into the same universe, but posted in no particular order. Updated when the muse strikes me.
Alternate summary, according to TV Tropes: A man attempts to escape slavery by turning into one of his culture heroes, teaching his daughter how to do magic, killing people, and flower arranging.

Summary
Kel sat and thought about it all through the long summer-- thought about joining the Riders when she turned sixteen, or going back to the Yamani Isles with her parents, or running away to become an unlawful bandit hunter. She drank tea with her mother and accepted her quiet sympathy. She wondered what was going to happen to Peachblossom. She did her morning glaive practice dances in the heady air of the tiny courtyard garden of her parents' townhouse, where the cook grew herbs and spices in big overflowing boxes.
Summer rolled on. She sat, and she thought, and she did not tell her thoughts to anyone. On the first day of what would have been her second year of page training, she woke before the sun and had a quiet breakfast with her father, and then she jogged up the big dusty hill to the palace.
When the pages trailed out to the practice yards with dubious enthusiasm, she was waiting just outside their ground. Her chin was high, her shoulders loose while her hands gripped her weighted staff.
"Probationer," Wyldon barked out her, when one of the boys went to fetch him. "Was I unclear in the spring?"
Kel stared him down, fingers white on her staff, and said, "I'm not a probationer anymore."

Summary
“My help?” She asks blankly. “Why would you need my help?”
He answers her without missing a beat.
"You're the bravest mortal I know." Maui coughs hurriedly, avoiding her eyes. He swings his fishhook onto his shoulders, adding hastily. "I mean, I figure you could make great bait again."
For a moment Moana simply stares at him, arms folded with a frown lacing her features.
"Maui, demigod of the wind and sea," she says slowly. "are you inviting me to come with you on a quest?"
He rolls his eyes.
"Don't make this into a thing, kid."
Moana grins at him.
"I missed you too, you know."

Summary
So there was a prompt on tumblr for, "After gaining the ability to see everyone’s red strings of fate tying soul mates to each other. You realize your string extends past the sky,' and I've never liked the red strings of fate thing so I scrolled past it, but then I wondered and went back, and apparently I have a lot of feelings about that particular myth.
Your string may lead you into the sky. But you're mostly interested in seeing where everyone else's strings take them.

After Kel breaks orders and invades Scanra to rescue her Haven civilians in Lady Knight, she is found guilty of treason in wartime.
She escapes with the help of friends and does the only thing Kel could ever conceive of doing in that instance-- she keeps fighting Tortall's war.

Summary
He writes the book as a coping mechanism. The Adventures of Star-Lord isn't a best seller, but it does help Gregg Quill get over the loss of his daughter, his grandson: helps him pick back up and keep on living.
He doesn't expect, almost thirty years later, to find that his little Star-Lord has grown into the galaxy's Star-Lord.
He doesn't expect to have the story come to life before him, in the flesh: with a few crucial revisions.
He certainly doesn't expect Peter to come back home.
