Ben-Hassrath!Bull is not kind...but he is very smitten with his new charge. The mage is lovely but Bull is also certain he'll serve a multitude of purposes for the good of the Qun.

Summary
The thing about being reconditioned is that they don't tell you what you did. You wake up, a little sick, a lot disoriented, and you're put back into your routine without so much as a by-your-leave. They don't need to tell you, you see. Because the thing about reconditioning is that it works.
Except for when it doesn't.

Summary
General Armitage Hux has never made any attempt at hiding what he is. He doesn't see why he should, after all. His father might not have liked it, but there wasn't much he could do beyond ensure that Hux had children to carry on the family line. And if that means giving his son a slave to use, so be it.
Hux has had a pretty bad day (Another Resistance pilot has gotten on his ship and is currently running amok, Mitaka is fawning over said pilot, Kylo Ren is obsessing over one of his Knights, Millicent shed all over his uniform, and Phasma decides to take a week off) and all he wants is a good drink and a long nap.
Not an ass-naked slave who insists that he belongs to Hux.

Summary
There's a story the cadets used to whisper, back before they were full Stormtroopers.
There's a man in a box. We don't know if he's sane or not. If he is sane, he'll kill himself when we open the box to interrogate him. If he's not, he'll try to kill us when we open the box to interrogate him. Until we open the box we won't know if he's decided to be dead or alive.
-- Does that mean we can't open the box?
We have to open the box. It's our orders.Finn wakes up. His mind says, simultaneously, that he is a Stormtrooper and that he is not.

When Meenah woke up, everything was dark. After the initial panic of not waking up in her comfortable bed (even if that bed felt too big most days), she tried to become more aware of her surroundings. It wasn’t that easy, what with the lack of sight she couldn’t seem to get rid of no matter how hard she blinked her eyes.

Summary
CONDITIONING STATUS: SUPERHOT PROTOCOL COMPLETE.
But its not elation that fills their weary bodies. Its fear, the dread of the laughter that filled the room earlier. They slowly turn to each other. Both of them know what it was. Bloodlust, a thirst for killing, an unsatiable hunger for life. When they realise what they have made of the woman, the one that taught ballet, loved kids, baked well and was a human before all else.
It crashes against them like the waves of a tsunami. They have made something out of someone.
"We have created a weapon." Bald says.
"No, we have created a monster." The brunette croaks.

Summary
Rook finds out the most frightening person in the world isn't Joseph Seed, though he is a close second. His biggest fear is of the man who trains wolves in his free time and has a knack for crawling into his head and plucking at the gears and cogs, rearranging them and branding his own special brand of crazy on every inch of his body. Nothing physical, nothing lasting for the naked eye. Every scar is carefully placed beneath the flesh as his sins come back to haunt him as do old nicknames that stuck a little too well in his opinion. Becoming Jacob Seed's personal pet wasn't something he intended nor delighted in, but the madman's claws are dug in firmly and Rook has no other choice but to trail along at the end of a leash and obey his new master.

A sequel of Arrangement, but can be read alone.
Sometimes FN-2187 has dreams of what can only be described as the most beautiful man in the galaxy. FN-2187 can only remember the taste and smell of his breath, the curl and softness of a lock of hair, the feeling of the other man's eyelashes against his cheek or thigh, the warmth of his fingers pressing into his skin.

An old work I removed because of issues and other stuff, then re assessed to repost. As usual it isn't pleasant in places and I haven't properly tagged it yet. I will repost chapters as I edit them and tag as I go. It seems the Last Jedi has helped iron out problems with the last attempt at it.

Bookmarker's Notes
Damian looks at him, eyes darting to the wings and back to Dick’s face, before averting his gaze, face twitching into an emotion he almost succeeds in hiding. Then Damian continues down the hallway.
He feels something crumple inside him.
Not for the first time, Talon wishes he could tear off the wings without them growing back. He knows he’s a freak, now. He knows how he must look to everyone else. He doesn’t want to drive people away, doesn’t want to be alone, he hates the body the Court created for him, he hates it, he’s disgusting and ugly and ruined and he doesn’t deserve to be cared for by anyone, anymore, he’s nothing but a tool –
Talon slides off the raised arm of the seat and onto the cushions in the centre, curling up small and pushing his face into the back to muffle his tears. He cries as silently as possible, he’s not supposed to make noise, all he wants to do is scream but he knows he doesn’t deserve to express his displeasure with words or with sobs –
-
“Dickie, are you feeling the regular amount of awful, but this time the hug hasn’t made it all better?” Jason is still chuckling.
Dick feels a little hurt by the laughter, but Jason’s statement is true, so he nods.
“And that scared you, yeah?” Jason tries to sober his voice. “Because it usually makes you feel all the way better?”
Dick nods again, still confused.
“That’s what we call a bad day. Nothing’s wrong with you.” Jason readjusts his grip around Dick’s wings. “It just means that sometimes the hugs help, and sometimes they don’t help as much.”
-
There’s a little nagging voice in the back of his head that says he should be ashamed for something so undignified as running (and for a hug!) but he buries it viciously with the other things he doesn’t want to think about. Like that time the Owls set him on fire. He cringes for a split second, feeling the phantom lick of flames melting his skin off his bones, and then shoves the unhappy thoughts down. He doesn’t want to be sad. He wants to be excited.
He spies Jason at the end of the next hall, facing away from Dick as he takes off his combat boots. Dick takes a running leap, using his wings to change his trajectory at the last second so instead of bowling Jason over, he lands perfectly on his back, arms and legs wrapping around his brother.
-
And that’s when he notices how carefully she’s keeping her gaze on his face. In conversation, people’s eyes naturally drift around, so for her to be looking at him so steadily in such an emotional conversation, she must be avoiding looking at —
His wings twitch a little, involuntarily. Do you not like how I look anymore?
“No,” she says quickly, eyes pained. “No. That’s not it.”
It’s fine. He tries to smile. It wouldn’t be fair of him to expect Barbara to still be attracted to him. He looks so different now.
-
He’s just so confused, and he doesn’t know what he’s supposed to do, and they want him to answer but the Court doesn’t allow words, but the Bats allow him to talk with his hands but his body isn’t responding to his brain, and even if he could sign he doesn’t know the correct answer to give, and he’s made this whole thing so complicated and he can’t do what they ask and he’s been bad, he’s a bad Talon and a bad Bat and he needs them to tell him what to do and he deserves to hurt for all the hurt he's caused them and
he bows his head and sinks to his knees in submission, shaking, hoping his punishment won’t be too severe.
-
“I used to do this with my mom,” Jason speaks softly. It almost seems like he thinks he’s talking privately to himself, not expecting anyone to overhear, either assuming Dick is catatonic or just so out of it that he won’t think much of it.
“I wasn’t strong enough to carry her to the bathroom, but sometimes the drugs would make her vomit, and I wanted her to be clean and comfortable.” Jason wrings out the bloody water from the facecloth into the sink, turning on the tap to run more water through it. “So I’d bring a bucket of water and a towel over to the couch.”
When the fabric is closer to its original white than the crimson washed down the drain, Jason turns off the tap. He kneels and begins cleaning the remaining blood off. “And my dad, Willis, he’d, he’d just watch.
Jason sniffs harshly, but the washcloth is still gentle against Talon’s skin. “I was four, and I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing, and he’d just watch until he got bored, and then he’d leave to do something more exciting, I guess.”
“I don’t know why,” Jason whispers, and it comes out like a confession no one was meant to hear. “Why am I the only one ever willing and able to do what’s necessary?”

They call them the graveyarders.
They shuffle off of the transport, armor scrubbed shiny white and new, brains scrubbed just as clean. They move aimlessly, startle when spoken to, and don’t answer to any name other than trooper. They are the dead walking, coming back from the grave, and they aren’t the vod they were.

Summary
CC-2224 had been compromised.
That had been the assessment delivered by Lieutenant Piett, the Imperial officer who met the returning Purge Troopers in the landing bay, and CC-2224 had accepted the new parameters and applied them to his current situation. He had been compromised in the field, and that was why his heart rate was tachycardic, his vision was blurred, and he was currently being dragged down the hall by the armpits, his wrists cuffed behind his back so that every step wrenched against his shoulders.
