    Summary

    I began writing Reprise in November 2015, after having a hankering for a good time travel AU and then being unable to find one that fit my niche craving. I wrote chapters 1 through 3 as a casual experiment, a kind of character study of Ben Kenobi.

    Half a million words and nearly a decade later, here we are.

    The series consists of four main parts:
    Reprise I
    Reprise II
    Reprise III
    Reprise IV
    Reprise V (COMING SOON)

    As well as a few supplementary entries:
    The Visionary (fanart)
    The Pragmatist (fanart)
    Still Here (oneshot, set between Reprise III and Reprise IV but has spoilers for Reprise IV)

    Have fun reading!

    Summary

    After the end of the war with the Empire, Obi-Wan wakes up in his twelve-year old body. Now all he needs to do is convince everyone he's psychic, trick his Master into taking him on before he's sent to Bandomeer, redeem a few bad guys, and try not to have a nervous breakdown. Pretty easy. It's not like the Sith are lurking on the horizon, waiting to devour the Jedi Order.

    Summary

    Tobirama could map the spread of a poison, trace the arc of a contagion. But this was something else. A pressure building beneath the surface of every mind in Konoha, eroding restraint, whispering that want was reason enough.

    He’d already ruled out infection, chakra interference, genjutsu, mass hysteria. None of it accounted for the same hollow look in the eyes of some of the villagers or the sudden hunger that burned through the rest. Something deeper was threading through them all, and it had started here—seven days ago.

    At the center of it sat the merchant’s gift he confiscated from Kagami.

    Summary

    Madara is a sentinel with a mind too violent to be guided. The only thing keeping him going is questionably legal suppressants and his hatred for a certain customer service rep.

    Tobirama is a guide who has accidentally killed about quarter of his clientele. The only thing keeping his going is stubbornness and his hatred of, well, everybody.

    He is also, unfortunately, Madara's last hope.

    Summary

    Sakura wants to be a doctor. She’ll learn how to fix people eventually. But before that she needs to do this, to fight them. Tuitions don’t pay themselves.

    or

    The one where Sakura partakes in cage fighting to pay her tuition and rent. She has just enough left to feed herself - sparingly - at the end of the day, but it's not so bad.
