A Swarm Cycle Story

A story set in the Pinwheel Universe
An ice miner from the barren moon of Ganymede gets the break of a lifetime when a UN job placement program relocates him to Valbara – a lush paradise planet with fresh air, clean water, and no need for pressure suits.

The aliens are small reptilian creatures with strange social behaviors whose females outnumber males by 7-1, and he finds himself the unwitting focus of attention in the workplace.

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a teenaged slave stows away aboard the ship of a Force user on her way to the tomb of a long-dead Sith. At first Laika thinks Arlaud is a puzzling annoyance she can leave behind at her earliest opportunity, but soon learns there is a lot more to Arlaud than she had supposed. NB: not very 'sexy' but I had to tick it to tag stuff; quite slow; quite emotional at times; and breaks canon for the sake of story. Also, all OCs so only very lightly fanfic
