Buying Trouble is a slash AU Star Wars novel by Layna Ayre Andersen about Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan in Ancient Rome.

Summary: Quiaius, a widower living alone with his cats and books, goes shopping for a housekeeper, and instead buys a starved, filthy and badly abused wild Celt who would otherwise have been sent to the Coliseum.

After the online publication the story was later published in a 111-page slash AU anthology with POV pieces from MaliWane, HiperBunny, Catnip, Destina, Emu, Fox, Gloriana, Pumpkin, Mrs. Hamill and Master Ruth; poetry by Gail Riordan.

From Layna's zine announcement:

It will include this story, AND -- I am SO PROUD to have this to announce -- BONUS TRACKS, by some of the very best writers in this fandom! These bonus tracks are stories surrounding the original story, written from the point of view of others involved, ranging from the goddess Diana to a migratory bird. I can hardly believe the beautiful work these writers have done, and I think you'll love it! I hope to have more to tell about this zine in a few weeks, as I gather everything together and get it ready for printing.

The zine has a color cover and eight illustrations by Alice, Barbana and Qor-Ynn, plus a full color inset by Fuumin.
