    Summary

    For so many years Michelle had never been able to wrap her head around the way Peter grew so accustomed to swinging from such great heights, hurtling through the air at speeds that would make one of Tony Stark’s fancy sports cars weep.

    Michelle hadn’t understood it either, on any of the many occasions Peter had taken her for a swing, had tried to introduce her to this thing that made him feel free, this thing that felt like home.

    But now she spends a third of her nights sitting out here with him, high above the rest of the world and she understands better that when you grow up falling from the sky, standing on a ledge is something like nostalgia.

    Anyone living in this here and now, the world at the end of itself, Michelle thinks they all understand a little bit better these days, what it’s like to become who you are while falling from the sky.

    OR: It’s Avengers: Endgame, except Peter Parker is twenty-nine years old and the clock is ticking.

    Summary

    Fortune smiles upon her newest amusement. It is not kind, nor warm, nor comforting, as smiles should be. Her smiles are all cold mirth and cruel promises. She prods him curiously, like a child poking a bruise. To her delighted surprise, he's willing to entertain her whims. Oh, she's going to have fun with this one, and she'll start with the death of his father.
    ~Or~
    The definitive work on the life and times of Blaise Zabini: the good, the bad, and especially the ugly. He's no hero, and he's no saint, but that's why he's perfectly suited to the path before him. If he can avoid trouble, excellence, and keep the skeletons in his closet far from prying eyes, he might make it out alive with none the wiser.

    Summary

    It isn’t that Ahsoka isn’t grateful, exactly, it’s just that… she’s tired. She’s been running and hiding and fighting for so long that when Ana - when Darth Vader plunged his lightsaber into her heart, it was almost like relief.

    It isn’t that Rex was planning to die on Endor. It’s just that - once he stops screaming in his head - he can’t help but feel vaguely disappointed. He had died fighting, as a clone should, fighting to give the galaxy a peace that he had only found in death.

    Now that’s been snatched away, like everything else. She’s fourteen years old with lekku that tickle her shoulders and her legs ache with the promise of a growth spurt; he’s ten-slash-twenty again and his joints don’t ache and there’s a chip in his head that can make him kill his Jedi.
