Shin's dilemma: she wants to stare and stare, without being seen in return. Or: Shin uses a quiet moment away from the stress of the New Republic Fleet to daydream (...and to gawk at Sabine).

Shin could tell that Sabine wasn’t asleep yet; but she lay there peacefully with her eyes closed, and so Shin took the opportunity. She looked.

…there’d never been anyone Shin wanted to just stare at like this. She’d never get enough.

Beware the Phoenix Squad-Room (Part 1 of 2)

In which Commander Wren is promptly punished for sneaking into Phoenix Four’s bunk (again) when the whole squad gets stuck in lockdown.

***

Shin Hati was many things, depending on who in the New Republic fleet you asked: a grey Jedi, a rumoured Sith; a deadly weapon or a useful asset. The best and the worst pilot in Phoenix Squadron. My so-called girlfriend (apparently).

Putting all that aside, what she truly was, was a blanket hog.

Once again I’d woken up in the freezing-cold Phoenix squad-room, shivering while she had the whole blanket tucked cosily around her; bare and cramped into the tiny space she’d graciously left for me in her bunk. True, there wasn’t much space for both of us in there, not with our combined pile of armour and weapons at our feet and scattered around the pillows. …still.

She doesn’t even need any blankets, I thought to myself. Shin always ran hot.

[Canon-Continuation/WolfWren/Slow Burn/Redemption Arc] After escaping Peridea together, Sabine sends Shin into hiding until the danger from Thrawn & the New Republic passes. Three years later, the shadow-war with Thrawn drags on, and Sabine searches for Shin in vain, desperate to know she's okay, and desperate to pick up where they left off.

"Sabine scanned the people around her, searching for a flash of platinum blonde, reaching out for a familiar force signature. The habit was too ingrained. It had been almost a year since she’d consciously given up on ever finding Shin. She wondered how long it would take before every part of her finally gave up."

"Shin wondered just how much pain one person could take. And if, one day, she would have suffered enough to make up for all the pain she’d inflicted on others- and if she could bear it, until then. All she knew is that she would never, ever let someone get close enough to hurt her ever again."

{Canon-Continuation/WolfWren/Porn with Feelings} Sabine knows it's only temporary; she only has Shin until the war against Thrawn is won. The clock is ticking. Whatever they are, whatever they're doing, they don't have many mornings left to do it- even if they're in the Phoenix Squad-Room.

  All my carefully laid plans to not get attached. My stern inner voice reminding myself this was a temporary arrangement, a detour in both our lives. It all came undone, and I could no longer hide from the knowledge that all I wanted was to fall asleep next to her each night and wake with her there beside me every morning.

  The thought was a sharp, shallow pain in my chest and a darkness at the edges of my vision, all mixed with trembling muscles and heaving breaths and a spinning head; overwhelm in the extreme.

A short sequel for my modern AU fic The Game (She’s in My Head Already). While Sabine is moving forward and winning games with her new team, Shin is stuck still, recovering from her injury.

Shin gazed down at her ankle, narrowing her eyes, feeling a spark of- something- break through her melancholy. She knew, logically, that only the most optimistic timeline would’ve had her on the field again by now. This logic didn’t matter. The plan was not going well.

Snap out of it, she growled at herself, feeling disgusted at the self-pity filling her insides. Shin did not dwell. She did not mope. She did not wallow in jealously, in annoyance, that Sabine was out there flying across the field while she was stuck here like a useless lump, her one useful talent snatched away. Her one skill in life being held hostage by layers of bruising, by seared and scarred cartilage, by swollen muscles.

Sabine was not made for sitting still- and certainly not while in an enclosed space with her former enemy. Left to care for a feverish Shin while Ahsoka hunts for healing tea, Sabine does her absolute best to not think, and to not feel.

This was no good. A year ago, Sabine had been lying in a hospital bed, recovering from her first encounter with Shin. And now, here they were.

The two of them had started out on opposite sides of a gaping chasm, throwing hate and scorn at each other across the black. Ahsoka had built a bridge. And yes, sometimes Sabine ventured onto it- but she always returned to her own side. Not looking, lest she see that the two of them were no longer on opposite sides…and that maybe, they never had been.

Commission by my beloved muse @somewillwin!! Shin's crew/found family from my WolfWren fic Exile (aka the Bounty Hunter Shin AU 🩷)

Featuring the members of the Nest crew: Ketsu (Wing 1), Shin (Wing 2), and my OC, feral orphan/foundling Sky (Wing 3)

...noting that the Ketsu X Shin (ShiTsu yayyyy!!!) vibes of the fic were ENTIRELY UNINTENTIONAL but have been....very fun lol. (And I now want to write a spinoff AU full of KetBineShin HA)

Ketsu and Sky love their Shin and glomp her at any opportunity 🩷
