#Ezra once he's finally back home and is telling Hera about his years on Peridea: I miss my wife🥲

Ezra x Reader when the trope Is star-crossed lover where one confesses but the other has to reject them despite being in love with them too

(bc hear me out

Reader is a nightsister on Peridea, exiled from their clan. They are young (barely an adult honestly) and alone, and despite being capable and smart they're scared but has to adjust to getting by on their own for the first time.

And so the first couple of years passes, until one day Peridea's balance changes, with a shift in the force.

Within a couple of weeks Reader finds themself crossing paths by chance with a boy, who like them and their ex-sisters smell like that force, but in a way of the everything different. If Reader finds him strange, almost unsettling in his own way, the stranger instead seems relieved by the encounter.

And for the first time in a while Reader is no longer alone, because Ezra Bridger (the boy made a point of introducing himself, despite Reader's little initial interest) has decided to start tagging along, and they hate to admit it, but they begin to warm up towards the young man.

Warming up enough to consider a friend, at the very least. Enough to decide to follow him when Ezra proposes to join The Noti (Reader will spend years wondering how their friend managed to get into the Noti good graces in only one afternoon).

Maker, at this point isn't even warming up anymore, because Reader start to cares about Ezra to the point that even themself misses people and places they hasn't met and visited, just listening to how Ezra's voice cracks every time at night, under the same stars from which he came, he tells them what he left behind.

It's during one of those evenings, five or six years after their first meeting, that Reader is practically hit in the face with the realization of how deep their trust and affection for Ezra runs.

It is always that evening, which has another realization, this time less pleasant: as he arrived, Ezra will go. It doesn't matter whether it will happen the next day or in twenty years, it's simply bound to happen, and when he leaves he will take a piece of them with him.)
