Summary
"'You are so good at protecting others, my dear, that you often forget to look after yourself.' Kenobi hesitates, then briefly, briefly enough that Cody thinks he has imagined it, squeezes Cody’s shoulder. 'I am not keen to leave you in the ice.'"
Or: When a mission to a snow-and-ice-covered planet goes wrong, Cody and Obi-Wan are forced to flee across treacherous terrain with only each other for warmth. Along the way, they confront all the things they have been avoiding -- including their feelings.

Summary
"You're dead."
Kote’s eyes met Obi-Wan’s. He saw, in slow motion, what abject panic looked like on the Jedi’s face. He’d never seen that expression before. It felt intimate, a side that Cody had never been allowed to see. No one had.
Then, Obi-Wan relaxed into Kote’s grip on his cape, his head tilting minutely back against the wall. And he leaned, pressing his throat ever so gently towards the blade, his expression open and wondering and accepting.
“Cody…” he breathed, and he was smiling, crookedly and so wide that it must have hurt.
Kote could have pressed the blade all the way home in that moment.
----
For Obi-Wan Kenobi, the war has been over for ten years.
For Cody, the war has been over for eight months and seventeen standard days.Series

gave you everything, and it's a beautiful crime by writerforlife

Summary
"It clicks in Cody’s mind: Halcard wants attention. He wants a passive audience, and Kenobi and the other diplomats won’t give it to him. He wants to feel more powerful than the systems he exists within. In his silence, Cody has become perfect for Halcard’s musings."
When a visiting diplomat takes an interest in Cody, Cody courts his attention to gain political advantage — even while Cody navigates growing romantic tension with Obi-Wan. As the diplomat's motivations grow sinister, Cody finds his life, selfhood, and connection with Obi-Wan in hanging in the balance.

Summary
“Across bitter cold and ice,” Kenobi said. “Are you ready for that, Commander?”
His voice was low and deep; Cody shivered as if he were already in the tundra. In response, Cody managed to say, “Quite ready. I’m sure we’ll find ways to keep warm.”
__On a strange and unfamiliar planet, Cody finds himself stuck in a time loop where every cycle results in Obi-Wan's death.

Summary
The year is 1998. Australia is fucked to hell and back, but its neighbour New Zealand is doing surprisingly alright. Well, if it wasn't for the supply shortages, persistent earthquakes, and the government's increasing heavy handed attempts at censorship.
Cody, a presenter at Radio Hauraki, is particularly pissed about that last thing. And he knows just what to do about it, too — all they need is a boat. Radio Hauraki started life as pirate radio back in the sixties, what's stopping them from going back on the waves?
Also, if his coworker, Obi-Wan, could stop making his life a living hell that'd be great, but Cody is pretty sure the world will end for real before that happens.

Cody looks at the bombs bursting overhead. It's friendly fire, and he's beneath it. The heat spewing from it is swift and lacks remorse. It'll melt metal through your hands. Meat doesn't mean anything to light. It goes right through.

Summary
Essek Thelyss comes to Soltryce to deliver guest lectures and, on the side, cultivate the brand new Archmage of Domestic Protections. He’s hoping that Caleb Widogast will oblige him by picking up his predecessor’s interest in conspiring to steal Luxon beacons, after so rudely murdering Da’leth mere weeks before the culmination of their schemes.
Essek is prepared for espionage. He is not prepared to find a love that will change the course of his life.

Summary
Beau begins by sighing exasperatedly, which is typically not ideal for selling a pitch, but what the fuck, right? “I wanted to ask you,” she says, carefully now, “If you would maybe be interested in working with the Cobalt Soul. In a more, uh, official capacity. Like with a salary and everything, or whatever.”
There is a silence which is somehow worse than the silence that they were sitting in before. Essek makes a small sound that must be unconscious, sort of like a death rattle. Beau didn’t know such an undignified noise was in his repertoire.

Summary
Caleb looks at him then, despite all of Essek’s frazzled glory – an oversized sweater slipping off one shoulder, one ear torn, mismatched earrings on the other, ink-stained fingertips – and says:
“You are magnificent.”
Essek’s breath catches somewhere between his lungs and his throat, his treacherous heart bruising against the confines of his ribcage. He knows it can’t possibly be true. He’s just Essek, still the same selfish creature. The same lying man with blood on his hands and a tally of crimes to his name. He’s barely anything at all.

Summary
When the Mighty Nein parted ways, they left an important enemy alive, so he might stand trial.
The road to conviction is a long one, fraught with pain, judgment, and the terrifying reality of trying to convince the world to take the word of an assassin-turned-mercenary over one of its most prolific propagandists.
All rise for the trial of Trent Ikithon, former Archmage of Civil Influence.

Summary
It is easily one of the top five most awkward dinners Caleb has ever attended. Everyone realizes very quickly that having the Empire’s Archmage of Civil Influence and the Dynasty’s Shadowhand at the same table means that not overstepping any lines is of crucial importance, and thus the conversation takes a rapid turn for the hilariously banal.
Astrid kills Trent while the Nein are in Aeor. Caleb returns to Rexxentrum to make some peace with his past and make some sense of his future.
There is never a simple way to stop loving someone.

Summary
"It’s a beautiful day at the Soltryce Academy—the sky is vibrant and the trees rustle with the gentlest of winds as Caleb begins his impromptu Transmutation lecture outside. From the building on the edge of the grounds he hears a muffled bell tolling for fifth period. Somewhere in the distance, a student begins to whistle.
At that moment, Caleb feels at peace.
At that moment, a Purple Worm bursts forth from the soil directly in front of him, and all of his plans for a pleasant afternoon are promptly dashed."
---
Caleb and Essek have finally settled down - more or less. While the beloved and somewhat eccentric Professor Widogast is busy inciting small student-scale riots and teaching tiny wizards morals, Essek spends his days lounging around the house, drinking wine and experimenting with the exotic concept of 'cooking his own meals'. They are pretty sure life is great - until two pre-teen assassins crash-land into the middle of the Soltryce Academy and demand the former Shadowhand be surrendered to their custody. What are the two internationally in/famous mages to do? The answer will shock absolutely no one.- Language:
