While looking at the Crossovers That Should Not Be thread, it occured to me that I've had ideas that maybe should be, and not all of them are Crossovers either. But, given my ability to write up any story has become increasingly rare as of late, the odds of me even managing a snippet or two are unlikely, so I figured I'd share them anyway. And if you've had ideas you haven't been able to write up, go ahead and share them here. You might get a chuckle, or give someone else an idea.
This one, I've had in my head for a long time. Basically, right at the beginning of the Clone Wars, right after the Battle of Genosios, Palpatine is caught in a legitimate accident. Drunk driver in an aircar, faulty elevator, a tragic incident involving Corellian Ale, it doesn't really matter. What matters is that the Supreme Chancellor is dead, in what only conspiracy nuts would claim is a Seperatist plot, and with no evidence he was a Sith. His authority is passed down to Bail Organa, who now has to win the war, but also follow through on the legacy of a man the majority of the galaxy believes was just and good. Dooku finds himself trapped on the side he'd always planned to betray, the Sith lose control of the Senate, and the Clone Wars go in a very different direction indeed....
