#Luke and Leia shenanigans

[not-my-final-account]

I’d like to imagine that when Luke and Leia are born the Jedi interrupt all holo stuff- including the news and personal devices to give a warning. Like as if the planet might destroyed or something- it might to be honest

It doesn’t even have to be Anakin + Luke and Leia are eldritch beings just the sheer force of three Skywalkers alone is a cause for panic. The Jedi temple knows to rest

Star Wars day!!

[froglover7789]

ok so the obv follow up to luke skywalker getting eloped at somepoint and not telling anyone is leia doing some serious meddling. like. shes bossy as fuck and at some point post rotj decides that shes sick of luke bothering her all the time (hes just annoying) and tries to set him up with someone.

imagine it please. please imagine with me. itd be so fucking funny. she'd keep trying to introduce him to people at galas or be like "ive got this friend i think youll like him" and luke has not a clue whats going on bc hes stupid and too busy thinking about the hottie hes banging. i love star wars. the sequels shouldve been leia getting increasingly frustrated that luke doesnt realize hes on a date/ being asked out until (insert your favorite luke ship here) tells him. and luke still doesnt believe it. and continues to go on the terrible dates leia sends him on. bc why would his sister send him on dates when she obv knows hes been married for forever? (she does not know this. no one knows this. luke is a fool)

it finally stops when luke tells her he cant visit with whatever mystery man of the week it is bc its his fifth wedding anniversary with (insert your favorite luke ship here) and theyre renewing their vows! isnt that so exciting leia! and he shows her their rings and starts yapping and leia promptly bangs her head on her desk bc how could she have missed that

I've been thinking of strong opinions and headcanons I have about some more unimportant matters, and figure I'd just compile them into a grand unified poll of Things That Don't Matter.

I ran out of room on the ones with asterisks!

*More specifically, Darcy is much more like his mother's family in general than like his father in temperament or appearance. Elizabeth is not inventing his physical resemblance to Lady Catherine out of sheer desire to see it; there really is one (if weaker than his resemblance to Lady Anne when she was alive).

**The ANH script says that Leia is around 16; Luke is explicitly stated to be 18. Other materials use different ages, but they're 18 to me.

***Selecting Gil-galad Fingonion in the Silm was a mistake of Christopher Tolkien's and in retrospect, I think it's perfectly clear that JRR Tolkien had settled on Gil-galad Orodrethion. (No slight intended to Christopher, who had a monumental task—it's not surprising that he'd make a few mistakes, and he acknowledged this one.)

****That is, when Elizabeth tells Lady Catherine that she is not 21, she means that she is currently 20 and not yet 21, but at that point she hasn't had her birthday. Darcy has recently turned 28 at that time, but was 27 early in the novel, like Charlotte.

*****By "discovered" I mean that Romulans also experience pon farr, but figured out the solution long before Spock did for obvious Romulan culture reasons. I don't know if this is contradicted by canon I have yet to experience, and I don't care if it is.

Been rewatching the Mandalorian seasons 1 and 2 and honestly it’s criminal that they didn’t let Din and Luke interact more, purely because Din Djarin is one of the few people in the universe who can match the Skywalker’s pure unbridled chaos.

Like, the man had a jetpack for TEN MINUTES and, after being told it wouldn’t listen to him until he practiced with it, used it to fly up and ATTACK A TIE FIGHTER with his bare hands and some bombs. The man let a dragon eat him so he could blow it up from the inside SOLELY TO GET SOME RANDOM MANDALORIAN ARMOR BACK. He attacked the JAWA’S MOVING FORTRESS with all the foolhardy confidence that the Skywalker clan ever had. I could go on.

He finds out Luke was off his home planet for like two days and managed to free an Imperial prisoner AND blow up the Death Star and he’s like “oh yeah that’s like the time I rescued my kid from an Imperial remnant and tried to fight the entire bounty hunter’s guild on my own”. They would be BEST FRIENDS and you cannot convince me otherwise.

(Also the fact that Din has this ridiculous chaotic energy and is calmer than the Skywalkers ever managed to be is hilarious because the Jedi are supposed to be chill and in control but nah man, not the Skywalkers, and then you have this Mandalorian who seems so chill and you’re like “oh he must be more levelheaded” but NO he’s just as bad he’s just outwardly calm about it [and internally screaming])

New One Shot: Darth Vader’s Favorite Podcast

HAPPY STAR WARS DAY! This was written for the Father Son Bonding Time Discord Server May 4th event, where we made art or one shots based on prompts discussed in the server. This was from the brains of me, @prayforpiett @misschrisdaae and @zoryany

Summary: 

Darth Vader gets tasked with hunting down the Galaxy's newest favorite (and illegal) rebel podcast. As he searches, he begins listening, and finds himself intrigued by its three hosts, a certain princess, farm boy, and smuggler...

Genre: Crack. Just straight up crack. 

Excerpt: 

It was supposed to be a simple mission, far below Darth Vader’s expertise, likely given to him as punishment for the loss of the Death Star.

Find and apprehend the Rebels hosting the illegal podcast, Rebels on the Move.

It wasn’t a very creative name, in his opinion. It was run by rebels, who were on the move after their base was compromised on Yavin IV. Surely some very uncreative rebels would be simple to track down. All he had to do was locate the illegal channel they were using for the broadcast, trace the signal, go to the location and apprehend them for public execution to discourage such rebellious behavior in the future.

And it was simple to find the podcast. It wasn’t so hidden that people with rudimentary skills couldn’t find it, after all, and he was one of the best with tech in the galaxy. But when he used those skills to trace the signal…the signals were misleading. Every time was a different location, and considering he checked again and again back to back, he doubted they were jumping around the galaxy every two seconds while broadcasting.

So, while he continued to figure a way to break the encryption, he listened, hoping they’d drop information that would make it easy to track where they were.

Leia: …why am I get notifications that someone’s logged into my Holoflix…? Who’s—

Han and Luke: arguing over what to watch

Chewie: using their distraction to stuff all the popcorn in his mouth at once

[flowerflamestars]

Beskar shine filled Luke’s immediate sightline, Din’s face ducked close. Past him, notable if only because the Force said look, see- because once more Luke felt a little too much heat, like he’d leaned over a fire- Luke caught a glimpse of Leia slowly pulling her face from Boba’s neck. He was also covering her eyes- laughing, as Leia tugged at his wrist, before letting go. Giving in, to replace the touch with his mouth to her brow, hand buried in her hair. Luke hazily put pieces together, empty glass in front of Din on the low table making him abruptly grin. “You know, I’ll close my eyes- whenever. Whenever you need a moment.” The burn in the Force was resolving- not Leia, not Boba, whose shields seemed purposefully shit- Din. That overheated, delightful too-much- sun gold red blood sunrise on sand ferocious- was Din. “I know,” he said.

A new chapter of my Rebel!Vader, replaced by three techs in a trenchcoat, and the shenanigans of fic! Enjoy:

Summary: The ripples of the Emperor's call spread through the team. There is planning. And panicking. Much panicking.

Okay but the FUNNEIST thing to me is Anakin or Vader and the twins, like, no matter the context

Anakin: everybody … EVERYBODY …. I DIDN’T CALL THIS ANNOUNCEMENT TO LISTEN TO YOU TALK! Ahem, anyways. These are my children, Luke and Leia *holds a baby up in one hand each like in the Simba movie only there’s two of them and he’s standing on the bridge of The Resolute*, if anything happens them *eyes start to gleam red* I will not hesitate to fly this ship into the nearest star

Vader, in some different universe where he doesn’t get burn and goes and gets the twins: *walks back into The Executor covered in blood and sees a hologram of a very angry Sidious* well I know that I failed the mission, but in my defence they kidnapped the twins! And theu are all dead now, definitely dead.

The entire crew of The Executor: *sees Vader being nice to Luke and Leia* *sees Luke and Leia being funny* Lord Vader, we would die to protect your children

Vader or Anakin: *that samurai cat meme but it’s Anakin/Vader instead of that guy, a lightsaber instead of a katana, and two baby’s wrapped up in blankets instead of a cat*

Doing the same things, *Luke and Anakin or Vader going into the same lightsaber position* *Leia and Vader both crossing their arms at the exact same time*

Anakin: *chasing Luke and managing to grab him* hah! Got you, time to go to bed Luke

Luke: *fiveish years old at the time* NOOO! *cries* No fair! Leia doesn’t have to go to bed!

Anakin: What? Leia’s already asleep?

Luke: what? No. She would never do anything without me!

Luke: We’re twins!

Leia: *appearing in front of them and making Anakin jump* How come you don’t know that about us? Are you even our real father!?

Anakin: …

Leia: Exactly! There is no proof

Anakin: there is. For one, both of you are crazy force sensitive. And Luke looks exactly like I did when I was his age, *Lukes hair would probably be more brown like Anakin’s if he grew up on coroscant because no sun-bleach which is what I think made both Little Ani and Tantooine!Luke’s hair blond*

Leia: then who do I look like!? Some other girl?

Anakin: … I watched Angel give birth to both of you. And you look identical to her, not to mention you can remember most of the republic laws which is something I’ve only seen your mother do

Anakin: *picks up Leia too* Now stop questioning your existance and go to bed!

Anakin: Leia! Luke! Meet your Aunt Ahsoka!

Luke and Leia: *in perfect sync* hi Aunt(ie) Ahsoka

Leia: the correct word in that sentence would be precisely not exactly

Anakin and Luke: *both don’t really care about this stuff and do not know what precisely* what?

Vader and Luke: *talking rapidly in the Tatooine language*

Sidious: *doesn’t know shavit about that language* *looking bored and taping his armrest*

[killershark82]

Luke: Just think about this! I’m your hottest friend.

Luke: No, that’s Leia… I’m your nicest friend.

Luke: No, that’s Ezra ... I’m your friend!

I hate how the fandom treats relationship between siblings in the Fe games. Sure some of them are brocon but not all, and it kills me that the only pair of siblings that managed to escape those are the one teasing. Like for example, the brocon in Leo for Camillla ok, i believe you. But Chrom and Emmeryn ? really ?! it's also painful that Chrom and Lissa escapes it just because Lissa is mischevious in nature but still while she admire her older brother, she still tease him! That's even worse when the 2 parties aren't related and then it is "emotional incest"... sorry i will never get over people getting mad at Leif/Nanna because of this, this ship among many others, and then says "iNcEsT haS aLwAyS bEeN PaRt of the series". It really is a yeas and nopes to this one remark

Antis will forever find soemthing to bash a ship they see as a rival ship lol

But yeah, as you said, that joke became old quite fast, and while I love a dynamic where siblings get along, let it be teasing or not (the Delbray sibs are fun too!) the recent games (FE16) made me painfully aware of how we were spoiled back then, when siblings had lines for each other and openly worried and talk about each other!

Watch me rant again, but I'll never be ok with FE16 carefully scrubbing Seteth of his interactions with Rhea bar the ones playing with the red herring or the "Billy centric" ones -

Like, can you imagine, one second, Reyson not rushing to Leanne after the Oliver chapters when they are reunited? Or an AU where Rafiel becomes feral, and only Ike chases after him as he runs away wanting to die alone - while Leanne and Reyson are sitting on the bench?

Nopes and FEH added more "dual teasing" context, but damn if FE16 was a slap in the face - and don't even get me started on how we still don't know if they are same gen nabateans (siblings like) or if Seteth isn't Rhea's big bro but only acts as her tired big bro.

First Lines Tag Game

I was tagged by @otterandterrierwrites — thank you kindly for the tag!

Rules: share the first lines of your ten most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, don’t be shy, share anyway! ❤️

If we survived the great war: “Luke took a sip of his kaffe and made a face. He wasn’t generally much of a kaffe person, but the erratic sleep schedule of a Rebel squadron commander / aspiring Jedi knight and the unrelenting cold of their current base made it something of a necessity.”

One Half Won’t Do: “Carlist Rieekan’s head was still reeling. What the hell happened? When did I lose control?”

There’s promise in the air: “The celebrations were still going strong, Rebels greeting each other with relieved hugs and joyful shouts, inquiring after friends, warning each other about the Ewoks’ wickedly strong brew. Someone, somewhere had found fireworks and set them off; there were bonfires and impromptu concerts and tearful reunions. The tension and fear that had lain beneath their careful plans and daring escapes had given way to the overwhelming sense of relief that followed a major victory.”

All of the ghouls come out to play: “Nobody was really certain how and when the doll had first arrived. It was one of the steady stream of gifts from diplomats and well-wishers from around the galaxy that had flooded Leia’s office and the Alderaanian embassy as soon as news had broken of an Organa-Solo baby on the way.“

Better than anything else that I’ve tried: “Leia wasn’t exactly sure what had first inspired the idea—was it the memory of the last bits of ice cream she’d savored last night, retaining that cool sweetness on her tongue as her lips closed over the spoon? Was it the arc of that little dip in his throat, seen as he’d swallowed his last bit of kaffe this morning? His lean body tangled in the sheets? The heat she’d briefly felt leaning over him for a kiss before she’d left the apartment? The sound, something between a growl and a purr, he’d put into his intonation of Sweetheart?”

See if you can work me the way you say: “‘A word, Captain?’”

A Girl in Trouble (Is a Temporary Thing): “Silence met Wedge’s story for a good minute, until Han finally spoke. ‘That’s the most fucked up thing I’ve ever heard.’”

Tiny Umbrellas: “Working up a sweat alongside Han was certainly a fair part of how Leia had expected to spend her first real vacation in several years, but this was not exactly what she’d had in mind.“

Our stained glass means nothing without light: “Leia was drinking tea at the dejarik table when he appeared. One moment she was alone, and the next, there was a faint blue glow and a sort of…presence.”

What they could do: “Nobody was supposed to talk about their younglings, the ones who had left. The little ones, mostly toddlers and preschoolers, who had been offered a place, a calling with the Jedi Order. The ones they’d sent off to be with others who shared their gifts, to be in a place where their strange beauty would be understood. Where they could spend their lives in service to the galaxy.”

Today in “apparently this crappy show will haunt me forever,” I mentioned the jukebox musical we did for my high school freshman year, Back To The Eighties, while talking to someone. Including bringing up the Star Wars dream sequence set to the theme from The Greatest American Hero - and no, I have no idea why they chose an entirely different property’s theme song for a Star Wars dream sequence. Even if they couldn’t get the rights you’d think they’d have chosen something that wasn’t a theme song? Anyway.

On the way home, what comes up on the radio but Believe It Or Not, theme song from The Greatest American Hero. My mom and I find this very funny and sing along because how can you not, and keep singing even as we enter a tunnel and the signal cuts out. I time the instrumental break in my head and continue. My mom can’t keep track of it and wonders out loud as we finish the song what part it’ll be at when we get out of the tunnel, shortly before we do.

Me: I know I go fast in my head but I remember how long the lightsaber fight is, we’ll probably be at the very end or the very start of the next song.

We exit the tunnel on the very last notes of Believe It Or Not. I was in this show fifteen years ago and wasn’t even in this number. Score one for Regalli’s musical memory, I guess.
