Post Order 66 - part 8

Though the crew of the Starsinger have plans, none of them are willing to break up their family just yet. Wolffe asks for therapy. Tagging: @starrrgazingbunny and @thestarwarslesbian

Kanna enjoyed the outpost that she had taken to calling home. It was peaceful, and the longer that they spent here, the more the shadows lingering over Fox, Dusk, and Cody lightened. She presumed that the same could be said for Rex, Wolffe, and Gregor, but she didn't know them all that well.

At the time, she had been slightly bemused when Wolffe invited himself into her room and into her bed, but his presence did seem to help Fox. And, as an added bonus, she hadn't woken up with a single bruise in over two weeks. And the one time Fox did try to grab her in his sleep, Wolffe made sure it didn't happen. He ended up with a bruise, but Fox was much less concerned about bruising his twin than he was about accidentally hurting Kanna.

Which was both sweet and annoying.

Luckily, she adapted quickly, and she honestly didn't mind having Wolffe curled around her back while Fox curled against her chest. They were both incredibly clingy and it was, in a word, adorable.

Not that she'd tell them that. They'd get grumpy, and she'd have to settle their ruffled feathers.

But!

That wasn't a concern for the day.

After a long conversation with Obi-Wan, the older Jedi realized that Kanna hadn't had a day off in five years, and he put his foot down. No one was allowed to bother Kanna for anything less than an emergency, on punishment of meeting the buisness end of Obi-Wan's lightsaber.

So Kanna spent the morning taking the longest bath that she'd managed to pull off since before the Clone Wars started, including a hair mask and a face mask. And it was only when the water started turning cold, that he dragged herself out of her fresher, dressed, and meandered her way into the kitchen for food.

Food that had already been made and just needed to be heated up! Food that included her favorites that her Master used to make on her birthday! And next to the tray of already made food, was a datapad loaded with books from some of her favorite authors!

She considered lounging in the sitting room, but decided that being visible would be far too much temptation for her family, so she took her tray of food, and her new books and vanished back into her bedroom.

And, amazingly, it was much, much later before someone bothered her.

She honestly kind of expected her day to get cut short at around lunchtime, honestly. So the extra few hours was a nice bonus.

The fact that it was Wolffe, though, legitimately surprised her.

He looked, and felt, guilty. "I know General Kenobi said that we're not to bother you, but-"

This was the first time she'd been alone with Wolffe since they arrived at the outpost, and now that she was looking at him-

Obi-Wan would forgive him. This was an emergency.

"Come on in, Wolffe." She said with a warm smile, immediately sliding back into her Jedi Healer mindset. She lightly patted the bed next to her, "Have a seat."

She wasn't surprised when he crossed the room in three large steps to sit next to her. And she was equally not surprised when he all but curled against her. In her long experience, Clones dealt with emotional distress by either ignoring it, or curling themselves against the people who might help.

She reached out and lightly combed her fingers through his hair, and she waited. Wolffe wasn't one of her Corries, she wouldn't, couldn't, push him like she could Fox and Dusk.

Eventually he shifted, pressed his nose against her shoulder, "I killed General Plo."

And there it was. Fuck Palpatine, seriously.

Her gentle fingers never stopped combing through his hair, and when she spoke, her voice was very gentle, "It wasn't your fault, Wolffe. You didn't have a choice."

"I could have fought the chip! I should have been stronger."

"It wasn't a question of strength, darling." Kanna murmured soothingly. She considered her words for a moment, "Jango Fett wanted revenge against the Jedi, and he used you and your brothers to get it."

Wolffe scoffed, "Dar'buir."

Kanna smiled, at the top of his head. It was a familiar term that was mentioned whenever she mentioned Jango Fett to any of the clones. "He turned you and your brothers into weapons. And it's awful, and it never should have happened. But it's not your fault."

"Feels like it is,"

Kanna hummed, "Do you blame Cody for becoming a Purge Trooper? Or Fox for how closely he worked with Palpatine?"

"Of course not!" He said sharply, "They didn't have a choi-oh." He fell silent for a moment, and then he sighed and tilted his head so the top of his head brushed her cheek, "General Plo treated us like we were his sons, and we killed him."

"And you got free. And you're fighting for your brothers," Kanna reminded, as she leaned her head against his, "He'd be so, so proud of you, Wolffe. Don't doubt that for a second."

"He should hate me."

"It's not who we are," Kanna replied.

Wolffe was silent for a long few minutes, and Kanna didn't feel the need to break the silence. And then he released a long sigh, and he gently pulled away from her, "You jedi types are so stupid sometimes," He said, though there was no heat in his voice, "We need to rescue more of the vod'e just to keep you all safe." He stood, and hesitated, "Thanks, Kanna. Sorry for bothering you on your day off."

"It was no bother at all." Kanna replied with a warm smile, "I'm happy to help."

Wolffe stared at her for a moment, and Kanna tilted her head, unsure what he was thinking. And then he shook his head, "Fuck, I'll have to talk to Fox about something. I hate that he was right." He hesitated, and went to say something else, but was cut off by the sound of Luke giggling in the hallway, as well as the sound of Fox talking to him.

Kanna smiled softly, Luke was good for Fox. For all of them, really. "He's a good kid," Wolffe said, "He's taken to calling me 'Woof', I think L's are a problem for him."

"He's two." Kanna replied drily.

"Hm," Wolffe was silent a moment, "It's a shame, though." He continued at Kanna's puzzled tilt of her head, "Oh. The odds of us being able to see him grow up are slim."

Kanna frowned, "The empire might be hunting us, but if we're all together-"

He blinked, "I'm talked about the sped up aging." Wolffe explained, "We have, maybe, 30 years if we're lucky. Anyway," He continued, as if he hadn't just shoved ice down Kanna's spine, "Thanks for the talk. I'll keep anyone from bothering you for the rest of the day."

And then he left the room. The door slid shut behind him.

And Kanna rose shaking hands to her face.

Fox. Dusk. Cody. Wolffe. Rex. Gregor.

They were going to die when they were still young.

She allowed herself 30 seconds of despair. And then she shoved it away, and allowed cold certainty to wash over her. Her hands calmly settling in her lap.

She had been chosen by Head Healer Vokara Che when she was 8 years old. That meant something.

Maybe the Clones wouldn't understand. But for people like Obi-Wan and Ahsoka, who were raised in the temple? Who knew exactly how rare it was for a child to be chosen so young?

Kanna had been chosen because she was a natural healer. Because she was smart. Because she adopted new ideas quickly. Because she was able to adapt on the fly. Because she loved so deeply and so fiercely that she would stand toe to toe with Death himself for her patients.

Her Master never managed to teach her what she needed to learn how to reverse the increased aging. The war meant that she had been forced to treat traumatic injuries, rather than chronic or genetic illnesses. But she could learn. It wouldn't even be hard. She just needed a starting point.

The Empire destroyed Kamino. Unfortunate. That would have been the best place to start. But it wasn't her only option. There were other cloners in the galaxy. Like the Arkanians. Who, if she remembered correctly, also specialized in genetic manipulation.

She calmly stood and changed out of her comfortable pajamas and into her normal clothing. She clipped her lightsaber to her hip, and pulled her hair into a neat bun.

She needed Obi-Wan and Ahsoka. She needed a ship.

Kanna lifted her chin before she stepped out of the room. She had stood toe to toe against death for complete strangers, just because it was the right thing to do. It that was the case, what would she do to keep her family safe?

********

When Obi-Wan insisted that Kanna had a day off, he meant it. She was overworked, and everyone knew it, but as the only healer she was so important that they couldn't afford her taking a break.

His threat had been unneeded, really. When he said that Kanna would be taking the day off, everyone agreed instantly. And then Wolffe went to bother her.

The fact that it did seem to be an emergency, and that he seemed a bit lighter now, did help settle his ire. Stars know that Kanna wouldn't shoo him away if he was even remotely in distress. Stupid, self-sacrificing kid.

But he honestly didn't expect to see her until dinner, since she insisted that she eat dinner with the whole family.

And then the door separating the living quarters from the rest of the base slid open, and Kanna stepped into the room. And her force presence settled over the room instantly. Obi-Wan sat up immediately, and, across the room where Ahsoka was talking to Rex, he saw her do the same. Little Marral and Yin, who had been watching a holo across the room, immediately scrambled to their feet, their eyes darting over to Kanna.

There was an ability, taught only to healers. The ability was only used when the Healer needed the immediate attention of every Jedi in range. It was a sensation that Younglings learned to recognize before anything else.

It was not a sensation that Obi-Wan thought he would ever feel again.

Kanna didn't say anything for a moment, and when she spoke, her voice was very carefully modulated, "I need to borrow a ship."

"Uh. Okay?" Rex said slowly, "Do you need any help?"

Kanna tilted her head, "Hm...I would like to take Ahsoka and Obi-Wan." She finally said. "No one else."

Dusk shifted, "If you give me an hour, I can get the Starsinge-"

"No. You can remain here, with your brothers, and the children." Kanna interrupted.

Dusk frowned, "But-"

"This is not a negotiation." Her voice was very soft, very gentle. But all of the fight drained out of Dusk as though she had just yelled at him. Obi-Wan suddenly remembered that the Coruscant Guard didn't officially have a jedi, but that they had, unofficially, been under the watchful gaze of Kanna, and Vokara Che.

Dusk and Fox probably knew that phrase as well as any Jedi.

It would have been amusing, but Kanna was deeply settled in a battle mindset, and Obi-Wan's mind was already whirling in a million different directions. Still, as she tilted her head towards Obi-Wan, he got to his feet and followed her out of the base.

Once they were outside, Ahsoka hazarded a question, "Healer Rae," She said hesitantly, "Where are we going?"

"Vohai." Kanna replied as she headed to where the smaller ships were located.

Obi-Wan frowned, "Vohai? Isn't that where the Arkanians are based?" He asked, mentally running through a mental map of the galaxy.

"Yes."

"Arkanians?" Ahsoka asked, glancing at her Grandmaster.

"They're a race of humanoids. They specialize in genetic engineering...and cloning." Obi-Wan said slowly, as he followed Kanna onto the ship that she chose. "Generally for things like replacement limbs and the like,"

"Why are we going to see them?" Ahsoka asked. "Do you need specific medical equipment?"

"Hm. In a manner of speaking, I suppose." Kanna explained, as Ahsoka slipped into the pilot's seat. "Through no fault of her own, my Master was unable to cover the portion of my education that involved genetic illnesses. Which means I have to look outside to learn what I need to learn."

Ahsoka faltered, "Is someone sick?"

Kanna was very quiet for a moment, "You realize that we have, maybe, 30 years before the clones start dying of old age, right?"

Obi-Wan and Ahsoka fell completely silent, and Ahsoka turned to start the ship, "Vohai, right?"

"Yes please."

Obi-Wan settled into his seat, already falling into a battle ready mind-set. The Arkanians weren't likely to help three jedi, but it would be easy enough for them to come up with a cover story.

He had best start planning then.

*******

How long has it been? A year? Five years?

Not that it mattered, it wasn't like his captors would ever give him any information as unimportant as the date.

He allowed his head to thump against the wall behind him. And then he did it again, just to have some sensation that wasn't despair and nothingness.

He remembered the Head of the Facility coming to him and telling him about the Purge. About how his brothers had turned on the Jedi. He remembered raging against the bars of his cell.

That had been-

Stars, ages ago now.

He thumped his head against the wall again, and there was a crackle from the hallway, "Subject, please stop abusing yourself. Thank you."

He rolled his eyes. "I do have a name you know."

"Subject, you are property of Arkanian Microtechnologies, you no longer have the right to any personal identifiers." The Droid said calmly.

"Yeah, yeah. Fuck you too." He sighed and slumped against the wall.

His new owners, his nose scrunched up at the thought, had removed his chip. And then did a shit ton of experiments before they reversed his sped up aging. When he demanded to know why, the Head Doctor just looked at him blankly, "You are valuable." Was all she said.

That was the last time any of these people spoke to him.

He lifted his head when a door at the end of the hall slid open. Goody. Time for another round of Medical Experiments. Yay.

"I admit that I'm impressed," He blinked, that was a new voice. He turned his head to regard the people walking down the hall. One of the scientists was eagerly walking next to a slight woman with vibrant red hair.

The woman was a cyborg, based on the ocular implants over her eyes. He wondered if it had been something she wanted to do, or if it had been done to her.

"It's a small thing," The Scientist said in his smarmy voice, "Here we are, the subject." He waved his hand towards the cell, almost absently.

The young woman regarded him thoughtfully, "As I understand it," Her voice was soft, and almost musical, "The Clones from Kamino have enhanced aging. That is the opposite of what my master desires."

"True, true." The scientist nodded rapidly, "But we've already reversed that in this subject. It would be simple enough for your doctors to find a way to reverse the increased aging."

She tilted her head towards the scientist, "You're sure?"

"Oh, yes. All of the information was in the datapads we gave to your coworkers." He said, "How we did it, how to do it, and the breakdown of how the enhanced aging worked in the first place."

"Does the treatment need to be repeated?"

"That would be a kind of useless treatment, wouldn't it?" The Scientist said with a laugh, "Three simple treatments, over the course of a week, was all we needed."

"Hm."

"Shall we discuss payment?"

Kanna turned her head, to regard the scientist for a long moment, and then she flashed a razor sharp smile. "No. I don't think we will."

"I-wha-" He was cut off when he was suddenly flung against the wall, and he crumpled to the ground, silent.

"I didn't actually expect to find a vod'e here," The woman murmured thoughtfully, "But the Force does work in mysterious ways." She smiled at him, and the door to his cell slid open, "What's your name?"

He stared at her, numbly. She was a Jedi. She was a JEDI?

"They told me all of the Jedi died," He said, faintly.

"As if Palpatine could ever be so competent. Your name, please?"

He blinked, "Ah...Fives. My name is Fives. I was an ARC trooper in the 501st."

It was her turn to look confused, "I thought you died?"

Fives shrugged, "The shot wasn't fatal. And then I was sent here. Still can't believe that Commander Fox shot me-"

The Jedi winced, "He...might not remember that he did." She admitted, "Palpatine had a vice-grip over his mind for...awhile."

"...Fuck." Fives breathed out, before he ran his hand over his face, "Okay. That's not fine, but I understand. Are we leaving?"

"Yes. So far as the Arkanians are concerned you now belong to me. Sorry."

"If it gets me off of this rock, I can yes Mistress you until I'm blue in the face," He said drily.

"Good to know." She turned on her heel, "Keep up, Fives. Let's get you out of here."

Amazingly, no one stopped her. He wondered if it was a Jedi trick, or if she was just so confident, that no one could consider stopping her. And then they were outside, and she was leading him to a nice looking Alderaanian ship. And still, no one was stopping them.

And then they were on the ship, and Ahsoka was clinging to him, and General Kenobi was in the pilot's seat, and they were moving-

And then the comm was blinking, and a harsh voice accused them of stealing proprietary information, and that they needed to land right now-

"Master Kenobi, it's time to go home," Kanna said calmly, as she settled in her seat, as calm as can be.

General Kenobi just laughed, a short, highly amused noise, and he activated the hyperdrive just before they crashed into the ships coming to stop them. "Bail always gives us the best toys," He quipped.

Right. Fives suddenly remembered that all Jedi were fucking insane.

He slumped into a chair, and then Kanna was there, her mechanical glasses having been replaced by a clean face mask. "Now, let's get you a proper check up, yes?" Her voice was gentle and kind. And for the first time in years, Fives broke down crying.

******

Kanna, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka had been gone for over a week. There were no updates, no warnings, no anything...and the people who called the Outpost home were starting to get antsy.

Bee was doing his best to keep the children calm, but Luke had had a 5 hour meltdown because his Ma wasn't there and he wanted her and not his Da or his Woof.

Dusk was beginning to worry that they had been captured by the Empire, though there was no news about them being caught.

And then Bee was there, "Miss Kanna's ship has returned." He said.

The tension immediately drained out of the room. And while Dusk wanted to go and greet them, it was late. And they would have to come inside eventually.

"Oh, thank fuck," Fox breathed out, he scrambled to his feet as the door opened, and Kanna stepped into the room.

"Welcome back," Wolffe offered, "Where have you been?"

Kanna grinned, it was a sharp grin that spelled trouble. It was one that he, and Fox, knew well. She crossed the room and gently placed a datapad on the table, "Three weeks." she said, "I need three weeks, and Beesix."

"For what?" Dusk finally demanded.

Kanna's grin grew, "And then I can undo your sped-up aging." The room fell completely silent, "You're going to live long, healthy, lives if I have anything to say about it." She paused and her smile became very smug, "And, I do."

Fox moved. He gripped Kanna's waist and he spun her around, before he set her lightly back on her feet, "You're the most amazing person ever-" He breathed out as he crushed her into a hug.

"Well. Obi-Wan and Ahsoka helped, a little." Kanna replied with a laugh, "Also, we brought back a gift." She added, as she glanced at Rex.

"A gift? A better gift than not dying at 40 years old?" Rex asked.

"I'm a giving person."

The door opened again, and Obi-Wan walked in. And then Ahsoka. And then another clone.

A clone with a five tattooed on his head.

Rex and Cody froze, and then they moved. Rex got to Fives first, "You're alive!"

Fives laughed, and wrapped his ori'vod in a tight hug, "So are you!"

Dusk glanced at Kanna, a small grin on his face. "You did good."

"I'm amazing, Dusk. Surely you recognize that by now." Kanna repiled, "I should grab Bee and get to work on this."

"You should sleep. You can work on it in the morning," Wolffe corrected. "We're not going to get ancient overnight, after all." He added when he noted the stubborn set to her jaw.

It didn't help. Dusk watched curiously as Wolffe and Fox shared a look, and then Fox released Kanna and Wolffe just picked her up and headed out of the room, much to her annoyance. "Careful, you're gonna wake up the kids." Fox said, as he trailed after Kanna and Wolffe.

Dusk grinned. Fox and Wolffe would handle Kanna and her tendency to overwork. Cody would handle Obi-Wan, and he would handle everyone else. They were going to be just fine.

Ten Years in Two months

While the meat and potatoes of this idea comes a bit later, it does require some finangleing beforehand. Some of the beginning does feel a bit contrived, because it is. In order for the dominoes of the plot to fall right later, we do have to force them into shape now in a series of improbable actions.

Bear with me for a bit, we’ll get there.

There is not really a particular point this starts, save that it is after Padme becomes pregnant (though well before she realizes she is) but before the Umbara arc (or ignoring the Umbara Arc), for no particular reason other than I want Waxer there. A mission is assigned to the 212th to escort Padme Amidala and her retinue to a neutral world for negotiations with the Separatists. They are taking with them commander Ahsoka Tano (the in-world explanation being that she was on Coruscant catching up with course work and they would rendezvous with the 501st, who were on a campaign in that region).

On the way to this neutral world, from the perspective of the rest of the galaxy, the 212th in its entirety vanishes for two months.

From the perspective of the 212th they become trapped on an uncharted planet for 10 years.

For the rest of the galaxy those two months are enlightening into Anakin Skywalker's particular brand of instability. Without the tempering influence of the bonds to his Master and Padawan, compounded by the fact that his secret wife disappeared as well, Well…his attempts to find them could, in the best of lights, be described as unhinged. He did not fall in at this time, for he was given no reason to make that choice (and falling to the dark, into evil is very much a choice. One does not fall by accident, after all), but he made it very clear that the war, protecting innocents, the Republic, or even the lives of his own men meant nothing compared to finding Padme (occasionally he would remember to make it seem as though he was focusing on finding Obi Wan or Ahsoka, though he never quite remembered to include the rest of the 212th). His obsession presented itself in such a way that even Palpatine was reconsidering some of his plans (he still intended to break Anakin into Vader, but he was now inclined to let Padme-and maybe even Ahsoka; Obi Wan was always going to die-live on as a stabilizing influence to his ultimate apprentice).

He was swiftly removed from command of the 501st and had to be kept partially sedated for at least 6 of those 8 weeks.

With the 212th for the first few months, from their perspective, they tried to contact the rest of the fleet. Tried to contact anyone. Tried to escape from their orbit around this one planet, thankfully habitable and with an abundance of edible food. However, though they did not know it, the planet was out of sync with the rest of the galaxy.

Over the period of about two years they shifted from living mostly on the ships with just enough people on the surface of the planet to keep everyone fed to a more permanent settlement on the planet with a rotating skeleton crew up on ships to keep everything running.

Padme found out about her pregnancy pretty early on, and with it came the knowledge that her relationship with Anakin was not the secret she thought it was. Nor was the relationship forbidden like Anakin told her. The marriage was forbidden, because of the Oaths Anakin swore as part of the Jedi Order and how they conflicted with the traditional Nabooian Wedding vows (though she also finds out that the Jedi Order would have helped revise both sets of vows so they did not conflict). Even beyond her own misunderstandings of the Jedi, she started to see the many places where Anakin either deliberately misunderstood his own culture, or deliberately misled her.

In fact it became obvious within the first six months that every culture represented in the ships (The variety of cultures from the natborn admiralty, the Nabooian Delegation, The clones, and the Jedi) all had some misconceptions about all of the other cultures ranging from the humorously minor to massive misunderstandings (One of the minor misunderstandings is between the Jedi and the Clones on names and numbers. The Jedi believe that they are making sure that they are calling the clones what the clones want to be called instead of their designation. The clones think that the Jedi as a whole are uncomfortable with their designation AS names-Which yes but also no-so even though most of the clones prefer a name to their designation, even the few that want to use their designation are told by the other clones that the must choose a name to use around the Jedi).

Obi Wan takes over Ahsoka’s training and the gaps that Anakin had left become very obvious; the place where he taught her something that was outright wrong even more so. About three months in, Ahsoka tells Obi Wan about Anakin’s ‘training’ of being surrounded and fired upon by the 501st. One of the few things that Anakin was right about was that he Jedi would not understand, nor condone, that training. Ahsoka had not realized how disconnected from her own culture she had become in her short time with Anakin. How isolated he had made her from her people. Though she and Obi Wan were the only Jedi, she felt closer than ever to everything she had grown up with as he took on her tuition.

In month 8 Obi Wan, who was looked to as the leader, arranged for a series of times to address the misconceptions held by an for each culture present. When it became clear that they were cut off for the long haul, he helped the variety of people to start to live instead of just surviving. And at the beginning there were a number of natborns among them that were anti clones, or anti Jedi, just as there were many clones that were anti nat born. But with only about 1500 people in total (1300 clones, about 50 natborn officers and support staff, about 150 senatorial support staff) there were simply not enough people to support those kinds of prejudices. It is hard to say that the clones were not human when you listen to the stories of decommissioned batchmates during one of the remembrance ceremonies. Or hate the natborn lieutenant that got drunk and cried all over you about the pregnant wife they left behind.

The twins were born with a village of aunts and uncles, and though they are the oldest, they were not the only ones. Sache, one of Padme’s former handmaidens and part of her senatorial retinue, entered into a relationship with Waxer and Boil, having a child with them that was a year younger than the twins. Many relationships formed and broke apart during those years.

Ahsoka and Padme ended up co parenting the twins, with Padme being called Mom and Ahsoka being called Mom Ah. It was the twins who insisted on their names from their earliest ability to speak.

In year four Cody and Obi Wan get married. Though theirs is not the only relationship that develops, nor the only one with healthy communication, their relationship does highlight to Padme how unhealthy her relationship with Anakin actually was. (It should be noted that, although Anakin’s instability and actions were flashier, this is not Anakin abusing/coercing the poor innocent Padme. In this they are toxic together, both acted in unhealthy ways that compromised their own morals). Padme was able to see how Cody and Obi Wan did not use their love for each other as a bandage for deeper wounds. That CodyWan did not become all consuming; each man had friendships and hobbies and duties separate from each other (even with the friends they shared, they did not act as a single unit, inseparable from each other). The other relationships she saw only drove this point home.

At some point in those ten years she tells Obi Wan of what happened on Tatooine, just before the start of the war. And Obi Wan, eyes betraying his grief and horror at the massacre of the Tuskens asked her why she absolved Anakin of his crimes (By technicality, as a senator Padme did have the authority to absolve Anakin-so even if Tatooine becomes part of the Republic, and the crime is reported, Padme’s actions mean that Anakin cannot be tried under Republic Law). Padme cannot answer him.

Though it does take time, Padem is eventually able to meet Obi Wan’s eyes again after the revelation.

6 years in, Ahsoka and Padme realize that they have fallen in love. Driven by the Jedi teachings for healthy and open communication (though many cultures value open and honest communication, few need it in the same way as the Jedi who are all some degree of Empath), they talk about what was happening. Neither is sexually attracted to the other, but they do want to date each other. But Padme is married to Anakin. And it might have been six years, so they do not know if Anakin even still lived, and if did, he had likely moved on (both of which are reasonable assumptions) but being together without first speaking to Anakin felt too much like giving up the idea that they would find a way home. So they agreed to wait until they were ready to give up that idea.

They had not given up by the time that the 10 year mark rolled around.

In year 7 the chips begin to deteriorate. The material they were made up of were not meant for the extra years of use, plus the method Helix used to stop the accelerated aging (discovered within 5 months of actually having time) created an enzyme as a byproduct that had no effect on the clones, but accelerated the deterioration of the chips. The first three chips were removed after the clones involved complained of migraines. All the documentation in the computer banks (the archive of what was readily available, instead of what was stored on the galaxy’s version of the cloud) of the ships said the chips were to inhibit excess aggression. No one had any reason to not believe the documentation, not even with the realization that the chips were not in the right place for what they were supposed to do (the assumption is that the Kaminoans, for all their genetic know how, just do not understand near human neurology enough to have put it in the right place). Obi Wan met with Helix, the head medic, with Cody after the removal of those first chips. Obi Wan assumed that he did not know about the chips because he had not been on the council when the order was put in. Helix is able to confirm that all of the clones have these chips and what they are supposed to do (according to the literature) and that some were beginning to deteriorate. After it becomes clear that the removal will not hurt the clone, they make the decision to remove all of them. However, believing them to be behavioral modifiers (if incorrectly placed), and as they did not have the optimal equipment to decode them, they all left it at that and put the Chips into storage and basically forgot about it.

Just 15 days shy of the 10th anniversary of their arrival to the uncharted planet, whatever grip that was holding the ships bound to orbit the planet vanished (The planet was in sync with the rest of the galaxy- it is a window of time that is six hours long in the larger galaxy, or 15 days long on the planet) Still not able to raise communications to anyone outside of the planet’s orbit, not knowing how long they would have before they were stuck again, and fearing that they would be cut off from anyone left behind (no one had forgotten that the planet had not registered as there until they were trapped), everyone was loaded onto the ships along with all of their food stores and the 212th left the uncharted planet.

As soon as they hit the galaxy at large again, alarms began to shriek. Every system that communicated with the central systems (basically everything outside of life support) experienced a fatal error upon reconnecting with the galaxy’s central system. It takes 4 days to fix. They have to reset all of the internal clocks/calendars in their computer systems to a date and time two months and 3.5 days after they became trapped (the last 24 hours of that time was spent inputting random dates into the system).

NOTE: There is a very important reason for this. Computers are very black and white about some things, and communicating between computers is often validated on specific information to make sure that both systems are dealing with the same information at the same thing. Current Date/Time had to be validated for the purpose of navigation. Galactic/Stellar drift is very real, and in the mapped regions of the galaxy that drift is precisely calculated. It is impossible to keep a real time map of every object in the galaxy, instead there is a systematic ping that goes out at specified times (Twice per Galactic Standard year) remapping every object in the known galaxy and correcting the location in the centralized system. Then Navigation computers calculate how long it has been since the last ping to figure out where everything is and a safe route. That only works if the current date time matches the current date time of the centralized system exactly (some of those object movements, even objects large enough to damage the largest of ships, can be measured in microseconds).

No one realizes why this is an issue. The entirety of the 212th believe that 10 years have passed (born out by their time keepers, which had ticked along for ten years) and yet to the larger galaxy only two months have. They absently notice that by the time anything is working again the planet they were on had vanished.

A message is sent to Coruscant, to the Jedi temple, but it is a hesitant thing. Deliberately vague in details. Obi Wan has no idea what 10 years has done for or to the war effort. The response is almost immediate, a call from the Jedi council. The very first question out of Mace Windu’s mouth is a cranky sounding ‘Where in the Force have you been for the last two months?’ (Look Master Windu is absolutely ecstatic that they are safe and not dead, but he has spent the four days helping to keep Anakin contained-the sedation began to wear off faster now that he could feel Ahoska and Obi Wan in the Force again-, the last two months realizing that Obi Wan ran about a third of their side of the war, and had been in the middle of sleeping for the first time in weeks).

There is quite a bit of confusion as both Obi Wan and Mace were absolutely sure the other had lost it over how long the 212th had been gone (Obi Wan: we were trapped for ten years; Mace: Bullshit! You’ve been gone for 2 months). It is Ahsoka’s appearance that convinces Mace that something more is going on (he would not know the children, and Ahsoka is the only other one for whom 10 years-or 10 years and 5 months for the clones- would make a huge visible difference). Mace is able to convince Obi Wan that they really have only been gone two months and the 212th makes its way back to Coruscant, reeling over the disconnect (The Lieutenant who spent the last 10 years mourning over the missed moments with their wife and unborn child…hasn’t even missed the birth).

The mind healers who have been dealing with Anakin nearly weep in relief at the news that Padme Amidala is with the 212th and safe. They know that Anakin needs many much therapy still but they have hope he will actually pay attention now that his wife is back.

The 212th, now a community in a way that they had not been, returned to Coruscant. They do not split in the ways that they would have before (before relationships and children) and peer at the lives they had left behind that they no longer quite fit the shape of.

The lieutenant brings home their best friend (a clone who had not picked their name before the mission, but decided to go with 29, which they picked to reference the number of a decommissioned batchmate) to meet their wife, only for some of the wife’s family make an awful comment about flesh droids and being a pet (thankfully their wife was equally embarrassed by her brother’s behavior).

Obi Wan, Cody, Padme, and Ahsoka go to the Jedi temple, to the Jedi Council (the twins, like the rest of the children, were left aboard the Negotiator in the care of their extended family). They speak of the planet where they had been trapped and the lives they grew there.

Padme took the time to apologize to the Council, formally, for the violation of their beliefs that she and Anakin had perpetrated by marrying as they had. She could admit that while Anakin had not told her of any Jedi traditions for marriage, or really any traditions they might be violating by marrying, she had made no effort to check either.

As an afterthought Obi Wan told the Jedi Council about the chips deteriorating, but that they did not appear to be doing anything anyway (To which every other member went: “What chips?”). Upon being asked Obi Wan calls for Helix to get a chip or two out of the storage closet they had been forgotten in. Which was then promptly handed to people with specialized equipment for decoding bio mechanical chips.

After the latest round of sedation has worn off Padme, Obi Wan, and Ahsoka go to see Anakin. They are told that before Anakin can be released he needs to be assessed by three different mind healers. They go intending to tell Anakin of the twins. Padme also goes with the intent to test the waters about the possibility of separating (She does not know that her and Ahsoka dating would go anywhere, nor are either of them even thinking of it right now, but even leaving that aside Padme has realized that her and Anakin are not healthy together). Things do not go quite as intended.

At first Anakin is so happy to see all three of them, he exclaims over Ahsoka being so grown up (she is now 24, now older than Anakin). It rapidly becomes clear that Anakin expected he would be released immediately, now that they were back. There was a small blip, a frown and a strange heaviness when he realized that all three of them were backing the healers that he needed to be assessed. Anakin also did not like how close Ahsoka and Obi Wan were, oh before they vanished he would joke about Ahsoka being their shared padawan, but he preferred it when Obi Wan’s lessons unintentionally reinforced the idea that Ahsoka was better off with Anakin than any other Jedi.

There were a few moments when he could speak to Padme alone, and the way he spoke left Padme feeling cold. There was nothing overt but it all reinforced a possessiveness that Padme realized she did not want in her or her children's lives. They leave without telling Anakin about the children.

Padme tries six more times to go and talk to Anakin about separating. At best he acts like he does not hear or understand her words. At worst he starts ranting about Obi Wan trying to steal his wife and needing to be sedated.

Regretfully, and with the backing of both the Jedi and the 212th community, Padme starts the process to get a divorce. Nabooian traditions insist that a couple that wants to divorce must meet with a Nabooian marriage counselor first, to see if reconciliation is possible. Setting this up takes several months as, upon being informed of proceedings Anakin had a second breakdown. His connection to the Force was such that the Jedi needed to block the connection lest he become very destructive. Only the Force Blockers left him not coherent enough to attend the session with Counselor. In the end the Jdi built a special room just to block Anakin’s specific connection to the force for them to meet in. Traditionally the divorcing couple meets at least 5 times before permission is given to divorce. It took one meeting for the Counselor to grant Padme her divorce.

The 501st had not been assigned a new general by the time the 212th returned, and Ahsoka was almost ready for knighthood. She took command of the 501st for a total of 4 months, it was too uncomfortable and too much like she was replacing Anakin (made weirder by the fact she still wanted to date his soon to be ex wife and was helping to raise his children). In the end Obi Wan ended up taking direct command of the legion, with Cody taking the lead of the 212th. This also made everyone uncomfortable, thankfully the war ended three months after that (the revelation of what the chips did had the council contemplating finding the planet that 212th had been stranded on).

Palpatine had been indiscrete around someone who he had assumed would back his power play for an Empire. To be fair, in another world that family would have been high ranking imperial with very human centric tendencies.

Palpatine had not expected a Lieutenant of the Galactic Navy, member of the 212h or not, to whip out a slug thrower and shoot at a party when Palpatine had admitted to knowing about the slave chip in the clones' heads.

To be fair, neither did the Lieutenant.

Since Sokabine isn't a rarepair for this event (gasps!) I'm going to experiment with some other gorgeous 'Soka ships that deserve more love.

SunWolf (Shin x Ahsoka) and JediArmor (The Armorer x Ahsoka). Also got a crackship up my sleeve, but I reckon I'll keep it to myself 'til the day.

Also going of a Sokabine x Witches polycule. Damn I hope I get all this done in time 😅

What is a Rarepair?

Rarepairs, by definition, are considered as ships that skirt on the edges of fandom. Regardless of being canon or not, the pairings do not have much fanfiction or fan art created about them.

Sapphic relationships are underrepresented and less likely to be celebrated in fandom spaces due to misogyny and lesbophobia. Most WLW ships become rarepairs or are viewed as uninteresting, solely because no men are involved.

However, some Sapphic Ahsoka Tano ships are less celebrated than others. For the sake of these smaller ships, we're placing a simple, measurable definition of 'rarepairs' for the prompt.

For Sapphic Ahsoka Tano Week, a rarepair will be a Sapphic Ahsoka ship with less than fifty (50) works on AO3. No other filters applied, just the ship tag itself.

#sapphic ahsoka tano #sapphicahsokatanoweek #sapphicahsokatanoweek2024 #sunwolf #shinsoka #armorsoka #jediarmor #omg the sokabine queen is doing more than sokabine!#watch me #I have like 8 fics part-written #oh dear #crunch time

1 like and i'll explain my entire gar restructure headcanon (part 1)

THANKS TESSA ILYYYYYYY

okay so as i'm sure you've seen everyone and their mother in this fandom say, 1.2 million soldiers for an INTERGALACTIC WAR is nowhere near enough. i mean, look at the top ten largest armies in the world this year.

by canon explanation, the GAR is smaller than the standing army of a country with 23 million people living in it. you know how many people live on coruscant? three trillion (and that number should be way way way higher to match the population density we're shown, but let's not get into that.) so, because that is stupid, i've gone the route of what someone suggested on wookiepedia one time: that a unit refers to a standard group of soldiers.

It is also possible that Lama Su did not intend the term "unit" to refer to an individual soldier. If a "unit" referred to a battalion of 576 troopers (as Lama Su spoke of later in Obi-Wan's visit), then 200,000 of these would render 115,200,000 clones and the 1,000,000 others spoken of as 576,000,000. This grand total of 691,200,000 would be far more suitable for the core of a galactic army. A "unit" being a 2,304-clone regiment, the largest military division classified as a unit instead of a formation, would amount to 2,764,800,000 clones. Furthermore, if a "unit" refers to a legion, the closest formation in size to a real-life British division of 15,000 men, the 1,200,000 units would have more than 18,000,000,000 clones, a truly "grand" army, suitable for defeating the huge numbers of droids under the Confederacy.

this scared me, because 18 billion people created purely for the purpose of serving in an army kind of broke my brain, so i settled for a nice round 1 billion, which is tbh way too low, so i Will also include the numbers for an army of 18 billion.

Structure of systems army if GAR = 1 billion (numbers, units, and clone+jedi officers) (if you use these in your fic or art, please credit my tumblr)

at this point i cant remember what is and isn't canon, because i created this two years ago. however, i'm pretty sure i invented most of it using vaguely equivalent military terms, because canon is Stupid.

Squad: 15 soldiers corporal

Patrol: 75 soldiers (5 squads) sergeant (5 corporals, 1 sergeant)

Echelon: 375 soldiers (5 patrols) sergeant-major (25 corporals, 5 sergeants, 1 sergeant-major)

Regiment: 337 500 soldiers (4 battalions) colonel (end of promotion that CTs can reach, beginning of CC ranks) (22 500 corporals, 1 500 sergeants, 900 sergeant majors, 60 lieutenants, 12 captains, 4 majors, 1 colonel) Rank 1 general (Knights)

Legion (this is what i headcanon most of the 'battalions' in tcw to be, e.g., 501st, 212th): 1 350 000 soldiers (4 regiments) clone commander AND/OR jedi commander (Padawans, e.g., Ahsoka) (90 000 corporals, 6000 sergeants, 3600 sergeant-majors, 240 lieutenants, 48 captains, 16 majors, 4 colonels) Rank-2 general (Knights or Knights with Padawans, e.g., Anakin) (4 Rank-1 Generals, 1 Rank-2 General)

Corps: 5 400 000 soldiers (4 legions) Brigadier commander (e.g., Bly [in my hc]) (360 000 corporals, 24 000 sergeants, 14 400 sergeant-majors, 840 lieutenants, 192 captains, 64 majors, 16 colonels, 4 commanders, 1 brigadier commander) Rank-3 general* (very militaristically-competent Knights (e.g., Aayla Secura) on the verge of Mastery and militaristically-competent Masters) (16 Rank-1 generals, 4 Rank-2 generals, 1 Rank-3 general)

Sector army: 43 200 000 soldiers (8 corps) Senior commander (e.g., Gree) (2 880 000 corporals, 1 920 000 sergeants, 115 200 sergeant-majors, 6 720 lieutenants, 1 536 captains, 512 majors, 128 colonels, 64 commanders, 8 brigadier commanders, 1 senior commander) Senior general* (very experienced + competent Masters, e.g., Luminara Unduli) (128 Rank-1 Generals, 32 Rank-2 Generals, 8 Rank-3 Generals, 1 Senior general)

Systems army: 86 400 000 soldiers (2 sector armies) Marshal commander (e.g., Cody) (5 760 000 corporals, 3 840 000 sergeants, 230 400 sergeant-majors, 13 440 lieutenants, 3 072 captains, 1 024 majors, 256 colonels, 128 commanders, 16 brigadier commanders, 2 senior commanders, 1 marshal commander) High general (all members of the High Council/Council of 12, e.g., Obi-Wan, Mace, Yoda, Adi Gallia, etc) (356 Rank-1 Generals, 64 Rank-2 generals, 16 Rank-3 generals, 2 senior generals, 1 high general)

GAR: 1 036 800 000 soldiers (12 system armies) 69 120 000 corporals, 46 080 000 sergeants, 2 764 800 sm, 161 280 lt, 36 888 cpt, 12 288 maj, 3 072 colonels, 1 536 commanders, 192 brigadier commanders, 24 senior commanders, 12 marshal commanders) 4 272 Rank-1 Generals, 768 Rank-2 Generals, 192 Rank-3 Generals, 24 Senior Generals, 12 High Generals (total of 5 268 Jedi, not counting all those who act in Combat Service Support Roles)

up next in this series: GAR figures if there were 18 billion clone soldiers, and then after that ranks + branches. reblogs very much appreciated!!!!!!

*note: if a Jedi more superior than a Rank-1 General has a Padawan (e.g., Senior General/Master Luminara Unduli w/ Padawan-Commander Barriss Offee), then the Senior General will also be given direct personal command of a Legion, and will also operate as a Rank-1 General or, in most circumstances, share capacity with a Rank-1 General. i headcanon that because of this in the war, Padawans with two masters (their actual Master if this is more superior than a Rank-1 general, and their Rank-1 General master who they by necessity spend a lot of time with) become VERY common

Chapter Fourteen: ‘Distractions’ Bridgerton Au!Anakin

part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13

a/n: first of all i would like to say a big thank you to all of you 🙌 you’ve gotten me to 300+ followers 🥹 i wanted to get this out sooner as a treat but i knew it’d be much more of a gift if i waited and put all my focus into this💋 that being said this chapter has smut 👀

one would think with three heads working on all the preparations to be done for the big day it would be fast. you quickly realized how wrong that thought was, so much to be done in such a short amount of time. you probably would of had more time had you not spent so long avoiding the problem and pushing people away but you tried your best not to dwell on something you could no longer change. No you had much more pressing matters to attend to like planning a ball and a race. oh and figuring out what to do with the now former members of the royal court who’d betrayed the kingdom.

the simple solution would be off with their heads- a solution you secretly favored, it seemed right to you. an eye for an eye kind of deal, and they did kill your father. unfortunately it was your father who’d put an end to the death penalty and to bring it back for the death of a monarch- the same monarch who spoke of his people as equals, would suggest that his murder weighed more than if someone of the Ton was murdered and their killer was caught.

which in a way his death did weigh far more but that wouldn’t make it any less of a scandal in the eyes of the people. not to mention Lady whistledown would have a field day, she was quickly becoming one of the number one tabloids for all of the hottest news. it would be easier to look over if everything she wrote wasn’t true in a sense.

so now you’re stuck with the choice of damaging Alderaan’s image, one of peace and equality or resurrecting the old image of Alderaan your father fought to change. the Clock was ticking and everyone was watching, waiting for the next course of action. to simply throw them in a prison didn’t feel severe enough for the crime that was committed, personal bias or not they killed a king.

to distract yourself from the passing time you focused your energy into working on the ball with Padme. was it working? not at all but you liked to pretend it brought you at least some piece of mind. picking out color themes and what food was to be served, you ended up consulting Anakin quite a lot to your surprise- not because he had good taste in decorating but mostly because he’d attended enough balls in Tatooine to provide you with an idea of certain differences you could possibly include.

your goal was to find a way to intertwine both Tatooine ball traditions and Alderaan ball traditions. that was the whole point of hosting the Tatooine races in Alderaan to begin with, to unite the two kingdoms and become closer ally’s outside of a simple marriage arrangement- and of course showing them that all was well. the new king still lived and what happened in the past was not affecting the current.

you’d already written to Anakin’s parents to flesh out the details, and as it so happens they would all be coming to both view the races and join in the ball. so yes maybe you also wanted to impress them, and make them feel more welcomed. this would be the first time your meeting his father and sister after all. although you weren’t really scared of meeting his father at all, it was his sister you worried about.

you knew from what Anakin told you before that she was a good person, but you also knew from what he’d told you that she wasn’t exactly keen on you yet. that was an added pressure for the day to come, but Anakin repeatedly assured you that Ahsoka would go easy on you. which to be honest did not do that much to ease your mind but as he put it you’ve done nothing wrong and shouldn’t have reason to worry. which of course is easy for him to say as he knew the full story whereas you weren’t even sure Ahsoka knew you weren’t the one who made the arrangement to marry him.

the only thing you didn’t technically have to worry about was the races, Anakin was handling all of that himself- occasionally consulting you when needed. that of course didn’t stop your mind from thinking something might got wrong. Anxieties plagued your mind more often than not.

it was late as you found yourself mindlessly tracing circles on the desk in your new study- you couldn’t bring yourself to step back into your father’s after everything that happened, it was too much. you found grief strange in that way, what once brought you comfort as if it were a piece of him left behind was now tainted with the stains of a previously unknown tragedy. even looking at the door of it evoked a heart wrenching emotion from you. “you seem stressed” Anakin’s voice pulls you from all of the thoughts in your mind, looking up at him from where you’re sat as he enters the study closing the doors behind him.

had he even knocked? you weren’t entirely sure but even if he had you doubt you’d have heard him. “how can i not be” you huff letting out a small sarcastic chuckle before leaning into the palm of your hand, watching him as he now rounds the corner of your desk.

standing behind you he places his hands onto your shoulders, gently massaging the exposed skin. the robe that had covered them was resting on the back of the chair, you’d gotten hot with it on and didn’t think anybody would be up late enough to see you in just your nightgown. “well maybe i could help?” he offers his voice raspy from sleepiness. it brought a chill to your spin, your skin prickling with goosebumps.

“how could you possibly help?” to the defense of your oblivious nature, it truly was late in the night and you really weren’t thinking straight. your question doesn’t go unanswered even though he laughs, leaning down so that his face was at the crook of your neck.

warm breath fanning over you as he speaks “well i am your husband there’s quite a few ways i could help, the one i have in mind however could also serve as a nice distraction.” you feel your face heat up as you realize what he’s hinting at, you find yourself unsure of what to say or do.

he places a soft kiss to your neck as he waits patiently for you to react. turning in your seat to face him completely as he stares down at you, the look in his eyes making you burn. the usual pale blues swallowed by blown pupils, he was being completely serious and you felt your stomach swirl.

as a women you aren’t entirely taught as to what happens in the bedroom- society often shuns it, though thankfully for you Padme had given you a brief rundown as to what happens so you weren’t entirely left in the dark. an explanation however never translates to how it’ll truly feel, what you where currently experiencing for example was entirely new and barely anything had happened yet. it was strange but you felt thrilled in a way, excited for what could possibly come and also nervous. a very odd combination, but as the silence dragged on and the look in Anakin’s eyes burned hotter you felt your mind run blank ready to allow him to guide you completely in this moment through each new feeling.

you give him a soft nod that makes him smile, taking your hand into his and gently tugging you to your feet. “let’s take this to a more comfortable place then” he keeps hold of your hand as you walk out of the study and down the halls towards your bedroom, mindlessly rubbing circles with the rough pad of his thumb. it was silent in the castle, all of the servants sleeping.

the only thing you could really hear was the sound of your own heart pounding in your chest the closer you got to the room, you started to grow nervous again and you could only hope Anakin hadn’t noticed. ever the intuitive person the second he turns to you as you enter the room and the door closes he notices immediately. “you alright?” he asks concerned, cradling the side of your face with one of his hands.

you nod whilst leaning into his touch, he stares at you for a moment in deep thought before he speaks up again. “y/n if we’re going to do this i’m going to need you to use your words okay?” he phrased it as a question but you could tell by the tone of his voice it was a command. “okay” the response came out quieter then you’d meant, you couldn’t bring yourself to speak up though.

feeling shy from the intensity of his stare and power behind his words. “do you trust me?” he asks with a tilt of his head, moving his hand down to the base of your neck.

“this is my first time-”

he cuts you off with a chuckle “that’s not what i asked.” there’s a brief silence before you answer “i trust you Anakin.”

his eyes trail down to your lips as the words leave your mouth. “have you ever thought about it?” the question makes your face burn again, had you thought about it before? maybe a little, mostly out of curiosity. since marrying him however, well you’d be lying if you said you haven’t thought about it more often than you should.

“is it going to hurt?” you dodge his question with one of your own, his gaze returns to your eyes.

“not if i do it right.” not entirely promising in your mind, did he know how to do it right? you had to fight the urge to ask that question out loud. “we’ll take it slow” he uses his free hand to bring your hand to his lips, placing a gentle kiss to the tips of your fingers. “you say you trust me, so don’t worry so much. i’ll take care of you” he adds to further reassure you, you let out a soft breath as he finally pulls you closer to him. his lips now hovering above yours “i’ve got you” he closes the gap between you both, kissing you soft and with purpose. showing you just how much he cares.

it’s slow at first, his thumb subtly tracing your jaw as you relax into his arms. that’s when it picks up, he sucks your bottom lip as he moves both his hands down to your waist pulling you flush against him.

your whole body ached for him, you couldn’t resist threading your fingers through his hair. tugging slightly on the soft curls causing him to let out a low hum of delight. guiding you towards your bed with his body, never breaking the kiss until you fall back onto the bed. panting as you catch your breath before he crawls on top of you, kissing your lips again before trailing kisses down your jawline and to your neck.

tilting your head so he has more access when he kisses the delicate skin. opening his mouth and sucking gently, the feeling makes you mewl and you can feel him smile before trailing back up to your face. he looks down to your chest, reaching up to the strings of your nightgown before looking back up to you silently asking for permission to continue. “please..”

the plea seemed to spur him on, quickly pulling the strings loose and removing the gown entirely leaving you in just your underwear. your body on full display for him, he looked over you. soaking in every detail, you thought you’d shy away from his gaze but the way he was staring. like you were the most beautiful person he’d ever laid eyes on, but then the look on his eyes changed to hunger. it made you squirm, and he couldn’t help but groan at the sight. “you don’t know what you do to me” he says in a low growl that sends heat straight to your core.

“Ani-” he cuts you off with a open mouth kiss to your right breast causing you to gasp. the sound doesn’t go unnoticed by him as he sucks gently, leaving a small hickey before kissing down your stomach stopping just above your navel.

“Are you ready for this?” he asks while looking up at you, lips swollen from kissing all over you. he looked ethereal. “we can stop at anytime.” he quickly added, wanting to make sure you felt comfortable and safe as he hooked his fingers over your underwear waiting for your answer before he pulled them down.

"I am yours to do as you please." you answer in a sudden burst of confidence, he liked that answer. pulling your underwear off with a fervor "You'll be the end of me." he mumbles as he lowers his face between your legs, gently pushing them open and taking a good look at you. he moaned at the sight. your legs spread, thighs wet with arousal that dripped down showing just how much his actions affected you.

he didn’t hesitate to dive right in, licking up the mess he’d caused. the feeling had your head spinning, an intimacy you never felt before. so passionate and pleasurable, and he was skilled.

moaning into you, sending vibrations in all the right places as his nose nudged your clit with each movement. your hands gripping the bed sheets from how intense the feeling was, moan after moan slipping out of your own mouth that just made him groan more.

it wasn’t long before he deemed you ready enough for one of his fingers, slipping it inside of you slowly not stopping until he was knuckle deep. it didn’t hurt but it felt old at first, your body adjusted quickly as he moved it. you must not have given him the reaction he wanted because he added a second finger about a moment later making you gasp. both fingers now pumping in and out of you and they reached so deliciously deep inside.

you were completely lost at this point, head growing foggier with every passing moment. you hadn’t even realized what was happening until you felt the wave crash over you. he worked you through it, before carefully pulling his fingers out.

you open your eyes panting as he moves back overtop of you, face wet with your slick. the sight alone works you back up again. he leans forward, resting his forehead against yours as he catches his own breath. “You’re doing so well.” he says softly before kissing you on the lips, he didn’t start off slow this time- instead kissing you passionately and groping your breasts.

you moan against him and he takes the opportunity to slip his tongue into your mouth, subconsciously beginning to arch into him. everything he did was driving you crazy in the best way, and you couldn’t help but want more. you tug on his shirt causing him to pull away from you, a string of saliva keeping you connected. “want to see you to Ani” you practically whine at him.

he’s quick to remove his sleep shirt as well as the pants he’d half hazardly tossed on when he initially went to wonder the castle leaving him solely in his underwear just as you’d been.

he gives you a moment to take him in before he finishes, you can feel him watch as you trail your eyes down his body. paying extra attention to how toned he was and the way his tanned skin seemed to only glow warmer in the candle light. god he was beautiful in every sense of the word.

“you can touch me too you know, i am yours as much as you are mine.” his statement snaps you out of your daze, looking up into his eyes with a light blush on your face. he gives you a smile, always teasing you any chance he can get. you don’t try to resist his offer though, reaching out and placing your palms against his chest. caressing his abs before testing out the waters and running your nails against him. he shuttered at the feeling, his bulge becoming a bit more obvious when you notice it twitch.

to say it escalated quickly from there would be an understatement, you didn’t even have time to process him take off his underwear before he was spreading your legs and lining himself up. “i’m going to go slow okay, if it hurts i need you to tell me okay sweetheart?” the sweetness of his words helped ease your mind.

“okay” you breath out a bit nervously before he begins to push in. the stretch of him stings, not painfully so thankfully. but it was still odd, not as odd as him being inside of you. the feeling was foreign but with each inch he sunk in further the feeling began to stir into something else.

both of you moan out once he was fully inside you, filling you up in all the right ways. you can tell he’s holding back as he looks down at you, brows creased in focus. “you doing alright pretty girl?” the nickname makes you burn, that familiar warmth going straight to your core. you nod, finding words difficult from how flustered you are.

“come on, remember what i said? you gotta use your words” he gently reminds you, cradling your face with one of his hands and gently running his thumb over your bottom lip. you wrap your legs around his waist shifting slightly to get more comfortable, the movement making you both groan.

“doing alright Ani, want you to move please.” you say with a slight pout and you feel him twitch inside of you.

he doesn’t hesitate to move after that, beginning to pump in and out of you slowly. taking his time with you, he was doing it that way for your sake but god was it practically torture. teasing you with what’s to come and when one of his hands travels down slowly tracing circles around your clit, you can’t take it anymore.

“Anakin Please, move faster” you beg, small whimpers escaping your lips in between each word. you claw at his back as he begins to pick up the pace. your eyes fall shut as the pleasure takes over, forcing yourself to take in gasps of air in between breathless moans.

"Don't close your eyes. Look at me." he demands, snapping his hips roughly. you force your eyes open doing your best to maintain eye contact as he pounds into you, bringing you closer to a second climax with each thrust. “That’s it, taking me so good sweetheart” he coos into your ear, you felt like you could cry from the pure bliss you were in. his words making your whole body flush, burning from his praise and the newfound pet names.

Anakin grabs one of your thighs pulling your leg up higher and adjusting the position your in so that he’s going even deeper, the new depth making you see white. you could feel it building this time, the familiar wave growing closer.

Anakin’s voice rasping out a string of praises, practically babbling in your ear as he grows close as well. “let go for me” that was the final push you needed for the cord to snap, your body spasming beneath him. it took you a moment to register the added feeling of his cum pouring into you. the warmth coating your insides and spilling out as he fills you up.

panting as you tried to catch your breath. he waited for you to calm down before pulling out. then he laid himself down beside you and pulled you into his arms.

you could feel how fast his heart was beating in his own chest from the exertion, your own heart beating in a similar fashion. slowly you found your thoughts again, processing the new milestone you shared as you breath him in.

Anakin kisses the top of your head before moving down and burrowing himself into the crook of your neck. “I love you y/n” he whispered against you, not wanting to raise his voice in fear of breaking the quite intimacy of the moment.

you run your fingers through his sweaty hair, scratching lightly at his scalp and feel him relax against you. “i love you too Ani”

it was safe to say he’d done what he’d set out to do. all the stress from your body was gone as you lay together, a mess of limbs.
