    Summary

    “This is Captain Steve Rogers and the Howling Commandos reporting in. The bombs have all been safely detonated, Schmidt is dead, and we’re about to turn this plane towards the nearest airport Stark can secure us. We have the Cube on board.”

    There was no way any of the Howling Commandos could have known. Known about the true purpose of the Cube or known about the turn their lives were about to take. The Tesseract throws the seven men on the Valkyrie through space and spits them out near yet another muddy battlefield. And to think that they had finally beaten HYDRA.

    Jaster Mereel doesn't know who these strange soldiers are, nor where they came from, but he does know that he owes their leader a lifedebt. To repay it, all he has to do is find their homeworld and bring them there. It can't be that hard, right?

    Summary

    Two weeks pass before something changes, and someone new is introduced to Satine and Obi-Wan's routine.

    Unfortunately, the someone new is not Qui-Gon Jinn, here to rescue them.

    Fortunately, the someone new is not a torture specialist or some other horror Death Watch is keeping up their sleeves for when Tor arrives.

    The woman has near a decade on them, and seems meek as a mouse. She is not shoved into the cell like they were, and isn’t even made to wear cuffs. Her clothing is threadbare and stained, but she is… clean and fed, and not carrying any particularly visible bruises.

    When she turns to the closing door, her profile is visible for long enough that Obi-Wan can see the bulge of her stomach.

    Ah.

    Summary

    In every universe, it is a very baffling life to be a rank and file trooper on the Executor. There are Sith temper tantrums, officers who are made near cryptidic by scuttlebutt (did you hear Piett tore out a wookie’s throat with his teeth?), and odd little inconsistencies and behaviors of the ship itself.

    Piett can be seen addressing himself to flickering ceiling lights, Darth Vader is enigmatic and ominous, and Veers has been compared many times to an Arkanian cockroach. All of this is op spec aboard the Executor.

    But even by these standards, this universe is… a bit odd.

    Or:

    Lieutenant Hakal almost slams into General Veers in a darkened hallway at three in the morning. The General's face is lit from below by the datapad in his hands. In the low lighting, his eyes seem to glitter oddly.

    Veers stops and stares at him for a long moment, unblinking.

    “Sir?” Hakal asks tentatively.

    “I think my skin is vibrating,” the General says calmly.

    “...What the kark sir.”

    “I’ve had twelve cups of caf in the last hour.” He’s still staring.
