If that meant Din was occasionally stuck trying to imitate animal calls for the enjoyment and edification of a delighted and indefatigable one-person audience ( Read more... )

The Child and his Mandalorian by deebainwonderland It has been a very long time since the Mandalorian has truly known that he is loved. This is a series of short one shots regarding the relationship between the Mandalorian and his Child (aka the green bean or baby yoda :-)), all delightful and often revealing.

The Parent by DistantStorm He says he is not the child’s anything. He is a man, righting a wrong. Nothing more. (He is wrong.)

Nature & Nurture by earlgreytea68 The British Government accidentally clones Sherlock Holmes. Which brings a baby to 221B Baker Street. I very much enjoyed this, which surprised me somewhat as I've never been a great fan of baby/kidfics, but the summary caught me and so I read. There's a roller coaster of emotions in the story, and a great deal of ( Read more... )

The Naming of Hobbits by Margo_Kim There's a certain point where you can no longer ask someone what their name is. Thorin isn't sure exactly when that point is, but he knows that it's probably some time before the person in question saves your life. On the far side of the Misty Mountains, Thorin realizes that he never quite caught the first ( Read more... )

On a Pale Horse by Hyliian When Dumbledore tried to summon a hero from another world to deal with their Dark Lord problem, this probably wasn't what he had in mind.
