Because Nobody is better than Somebody, and Somebody makes her smile though lips painted red with lipstick she doesn't like, wear the black dress that is in the back of her closet for a reason, makes her labor over curling irons and hair for longer than she wants to - but Nobody lets her dance under night skies in the rain with streetlights instead of stars - and that is everything and nothing at all. Oh, c'est la vie; such is life.[or Evan remembers when Julie was seven instead of seventeen, when they didn't know the suburbs were where people watched life go by and where everyone talked but no one said anything, and he wishes the rain would last forever]...[basically just a short story about a boy in love with his childhood friend who has no idea; centered around one snapshot moment/an epiphany]+ cover credit: my photo(Note: I entered this into an awards with minor edits so it is not plagiarism because I am the author so it should not be reported as such. :)…

"The council didn't trust me, so how can I trust myself?":::Ahsoka Tano thrives on purpose - and without it, she finds her life significantly harder. With nothing to guide her, Ahsoka must learn to guide herself. In doing so, she must also learn to trust herself, where she found others did not. No more war (for better or worse), no more mantras, and no more Jedi. Ahsoka quickly discovers that her past teachings and skills are deemed useless in the Lower Levels, where survival outweighs honor, and greed outweighs compassion. She learns the hard way that not everyone wants to be helped, and not everyone wants to help. It is no secret to the citizens of the Coruscanti underworld that there is an absence of the Jedi Order on the planet on which they reside, and Ahsoka must come to terms with that cruel irony. Left to fend for herself on the new battlefield in which she has no experience - a life of her own - Ahsoka must set new boundaries for herself, by herself. For the first time in her life, Ahsoka Tano is truly lost and alone, with nothing to guide her or dictate what she can do. But that also means that she is free, even if it takes her a while to realize it. ..When Ahsoka Tano departed from the Jedi Order, it left many unanswered questions that sparked countless ideas and stories - and this book is just one of the many. ::::+ 3rd place in The Golden Empire Awards (Fanfiction - 2020-2021)+ 2nd place in The Hidden Phoenix Awards 2020 (Science-fiction)::::*I tried to keep this in the canon universe.

Unrest in the galaxy. The time of the Republic has passed, and the normalities of the fallen era have become mere myths in the reality of the Empire's shadow. The Rebel Alliance, led by Mon Mothma and others, is forever expanding, albeit little by little - though the rebels will take any sort of victory they can get. With their new base of operations, and their reveal to the Empire preceded by the rescue of Jedi Kanan Jarrus, things are starting to heat up. More busy than ever, the rebel agents are dispatched all across the galaxy, collecting intel, running mercy missions, and recruiting mercenaries. Meanwhile, on the planet Mera of the Aoes system, a certain teenager has no idea what's in store for her after meeting a certain lekku-adorned star-pilot.…
