Before Star Wars: The Force Awakens, I considered myself a casual Star Wars fan. I had seen all of the movies and really enjoyed them, but never really engaged in the fandom. However, that movie did what Disney wanted it to and brought me into the fandom. Unlike most people, I immediately jumped on the Rey/Finn/Poe bandwagon and wrote Like An Exposed Nerve in 2018. I also saw Rogue One and to this day, that's my Star Wars movie and I adore it. I got the idea for That Which Is Lost By Not Trying mere weeks after seeing the film, but it wasn't until the Fanfic Frenzy of 2020 that it finally got written. Then, I came up with a way to connect my two sequel trilogy fics with my Rogue One AU and we went from there. Following the release of the last sequel trilogy film, I also added a one-shot after the events of Like An Exposed Nerve. I've had an idea for a fifth story in this series for a long time, but it has felt too similar to previous entries, and I worry no one would be interested. Three out of the four fics are multi-chapters and 25k+ with one one-shot with the total for series being 102,501 words. The three multi-chapter fics are R/M for Mature while the one-shot is NC-17/E for Explicit.

Summary: After the events of Scarif, the Rogue One team have been dishonorably discharged from the Alliance to set an example and prevent any other soldiers from going rogue. They don't have any allies left but they still want to fight but they have to fight another way to do it; from the shadows. They have blood on their hands, they aren't the heroes the Alliance can rally behind, but that doesn't mean they don't have a part to play in this war.
