I know, I know, this one isn't particularly Sithly. But it's damned good.
Title: The Fin and Jinn Series

Reasons for recommending: A series about how Finis Valorum and Qui-Gon Jinn initially met back when Valorum was a lower-level politician and Qui-Gon was newly knighted, and how their friendship grew over time. It's a fascinating character study of both men that kept me reading without my favorite Sith involved.
Quote from the story:
Valorum scratched his nose. "I'd just told him to go fuck a Hutt, and he said, 'Obi-Wan would find that amusing.'" He smiled slightly. "I kind of gathered that he didn't, not entirely."
"You said that to Master Qui-Gon?" There were about fifteen different tones mixed in the boy's voice, but bitterness was not one of them.
"No, I said it to my friend Jinn," Finis answered easily. "It was a chink in his armor, you know-- I could always nail him with something truly sleazy. The man didn't have a vulgar bone in his body."
