Luke Skywalker. 💚

The Legend Himself.

I really wish he got his own show or movie….

He definitely is one of the best characters in the Star Wars franchise!

A/b/o headcanons for Poe and his s/o where one or the other goes into heat/rut for the first time around each other

I couldn’t decide on which one so I wrote for both ☺️

Poe would definitely make sure to keep his Ruts tracked so you both wouldn’t be caught off guard. He would make sure to have plenty of supplies stocked up and would make sure to have everything prepared. You think it’s adorable how fixated he is on trying to make sure everything will be perfect. During his Rut, Poe’s instincts would be pushed into overdrive at finally having an Omega to share his Rut with, and he would valiantly try to hold off on his urges to make sure you are comfortable. Leaving the bed would be a near impossible task since Poe would be wrapped around you growling and purring and scenting you with a growing desperation that leaves you breathless.

With your first shared Heat with Poe, you would probably be a bit more nervous, and would spend more time than strictly necessary nesting to help relieve the added stress. Poe would try his best to help by packing food and water within reaching distance and bringing you soft blankets for your nest that he’s already scented, but it’s still nerve-racking. He would just hold you close and soothe your fears or concerns when you eventually confide in him about your feelings. Once your Heat starts, Poe takes his role as your Alpha very seriously, and you quickly realize that you didn’t have to be so nervous after all. He makes sure you have everything you could possibly want and never leaves your side.

"I came here today to thank you all. I'm just a kid who grew up in the middle of California, surrounded by vineyards, and made films in San Francisco with my friend Francis Coppola. So we spent our entire careers in parallel, and in San Francisco in particular. In fact, I've never made a Hollywood film as a director. So it's a great honor to be here. I can tell you that."

- George Lucas, Honorary Palme d'or at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival

It’s absolutely astounding how much more I enjoy Star Wars as an overall franchise when I engage with Extended Universe & Legends Era projects that aren’t the shows or films (exceptions being Andor & Visons).

Even in regards to the Disney Era, so many of the most compelling writing & stories come from several of the prose books/short story collections (ie Alphabet Squadron & From A Certain Point Of View) and comics (ie many of the Darth Vader graphic novels).

On a lark, after putting off reading my copy for so long, I finally decided to read the often praised Star Wars Legends novel Darth Plagueis via Audiobook on YouTube and, despite watching the sequel trilogy in theaters, the audiobook was the most engaged & invested I’ve been in Star Wars as a storytelling playground since Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars back in 2003. The book is brimming with engaging characters & fantastic rich writing & plotting.

Now I’ve moved on to the YT channel The Archivist Publishing & its Audiobooks for Tales of the Bounty Hunters and the truly outstanding novel Death Star which is an incredible ensemble drama about the compelling lives of multiple characters either willingly, conscripted or outright forced to work on the 2/3rds constructed superweapon. It covers a gamut of perspectives from icons of Imperial command like Tarkin & Vader, to political prisoners of the Empire forced to apply their skills to the Death Star’s construction, to rank & file guards & pilots steeped in worship of the Empire eager for reassignment to the doomed battlestation, and even several individuals from discriminated species simply looking to eek out a semblance of a stable life under the thumb of the Empire. The book is absolutely overflowing with intrigue, magnetic & complex characters, spectacular worldbuilding & just generally terrific writing.

Ultimately, as someone who gravitated more towards Star Trek as my mainstream space scifi franchise of choice for years, I’m glad to finally get truly engrossed in the Star Wars universe & franchise earnestly rather than keeping it at arms length & only watching most of the post-Original Trilogy content out of social obligation to listlessly follow the zeitgeist instead of real interest. And as such I highly recommend that anyone who wants to truly see what can be done in this universe beyond the multitude of mid & low tier live action content we’ve gotten pre & post-Disney or simply just want to read good space opera fiction, definitely check out the Star Wars Legends-branded books & short fiction collections as well as several of the modern Star Wars comics.
