warnings: Cannon typical violence, cursing, anxiety

_____________________

An odd sensation tickled your face and around your ears, slowly waking you from your sleep; it wasn’t a bad feeling, but it was definitely new.

You yawned and rubbed your eyes, you should probably get up because Vader could be entering any minu-

“Did you sleep well, miss L/N?” an all too familiar voice spoke. 

The hair on the back of your neck stood up and you jumped before slowly turning your face to look at the person to whom the deep voice belonged.

Just across from you, he sat in the large chair;  his body angled slightly to the left and his posture much more relaxed than you had ever seen him. 

You were in his domain, you were scared, and he knew it.

As you sat up you felt something fall off of your shoulders; a blanket? 

You didn’t remember having one of those? 

“My lord, I-I did not fetch this blanket, I do not want you to suspect that I rummaged around in your personal offi-”

“I thought nothing of the sort, Officer. That “blanket”- is my cape. You seemed cold when I walked in earlier.”

His cape? Why in the galaxy would he give it to you?

“May I speak freely sir?” you asked.

“You may.”

“I guess I'm just kind of…lost? Why did you call me here? Have I done something wrong?” you listed off your questions that came to mind.

He took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding. Slowly, he lifted himself off of his chair and crossed the floor towards where you were still sitting. Your heartbeat quickened at his movement, but once he reached you, he placed a calming hand on your shoulder. 

“Officer y/n, You have nothing to fear. I simply wanted to have a conversation with you that was not called upon on grounds of work.” he spoke very matter-of-factly. 

You nodded and allowed yourself to relax just a bit. 

“First of all I wanted to personally thank you for the work on my private sector… I am pleased you have kept what I asked between you and me” he said as he walked to look out of the large window on the other side of the room. 

“You truly are gifted, Officer” 

A warm blush began to appear on your cheeks; Darth Vader was complimenting you. 

“I cannot thank you enough for your kind words, My Lord” you thanked him graciously. 

“I have an offer for you” He said, turning to face you. 

“Sir?” you curiously asked. 

“If it would interest you, I would like to hire you as my personal mechanic- you would only work on my machines rather than all empire grade machines.”

You were stunned, out of all propositions, you never would have guessed that!

You were just a hard worker, not necessarily one of the best- Why would he want you when he could have anyone else in the galaxy?

“My Lord, Are you sure?” you timidly asked. 

“I am. And in this scenario you would answer to me instead of some chauvinistic and vile excuse for a general.” he said, anger bubbling under his words. 

“Excuse my temper, I just mean to relay that taking this position would give you opportunities that other positions would not allow. You may feel free to decline the offer, there will be no repercussions”.

You were skeptical, but you also knew you couldn’t really deny him, no matter what he said. 

“I will take the Job” you proclaimed.

Vader placed his hands on his belt, “Are you sure, officer?”.

“Positive.”

His large arms crossed across his chest as he nodded, “Then it is done. I will send a guard to deliver your new equipment, I shall see you tomorrow morning”.

Before he could leave and before you could stop yourself, you called for him, “Wait! Sir!”.

He turned expectantly. 

“May I ask… why me? There are hundreds of better mechanics out there?”.

Of course Vader knew he could have any mechanic he wanted, he could get the best of the best,  but that wasn’t the point. He chose a mechanic that made him happy, one that he looked forward to seeing, he chose one that he truly wanted.

“I believe your capabilities hold an advantage over many of your colleagues,” he stated. 

The excitement found its way to your core and soon you were excited in a different way; though you would have to take care of that feeling at another time, preferably when you were not in the presence of a Sith lord.

Maker please don’t let him sense it…

“Plus, I find you alluring” he added, before heading out of the room before you could process what just happened. 

After he left a pair of troopers dawning black suits came to accompany you to your room where they delivered your new tools. Vader had spared no expense when obtaining your instruments. They were of the highest grade metals and all were much more high functioning than the communal tool from your old department. 

You felt like a little kid opening presents on their birthday; honestly this was the nicest thing you had ever received from someone. 

_________________________________

It was definitely an adjustment to see a set of troopers at your door to escort you to Vader’s private wing each morning, but you had gotten used to it over the weeks. In the beginning you were alarmed- knowing your track record with the armored men.- but then you realized: you were now personally employed by Darth Vader, not just the empire. 

No one would dare fuck with you now… and you kind of loved it. 

Today wasn’t unlike the previous days; you arrived at the place that had mechanics that needed to be inspected, fixed them, then went on to the next until your shift was over.

Mainly, you were working on the medical equipment with an occasional upgrade on his meditation chamber. Not hard stuff.

You couldn’t complain; the work was easy, the pay was good, and you basically got a seal of invincibility because, for some reason, the Sith Lord was fond of you.

But as the time went by, you found yourself becoming bored with the monotony of your life- When he first proposed this position to you back on the day he killed your former boss, you were excited; working under such a powerful figure had to mean your assignments would be more high stakes and challenging, right? 

Also, a big reason you had been excited to start the job was because you assumed being Vader’s personal mechanic would mean that you would see and spend more time with the illusive man. But you really hadn’t spent much time around him.

The large metal doors slid open with a gust of air and the man you had been waiting to see stormed in. He seemed upset and stormed past you so fast that you barely had time to scramble out of the way. 

Ok, maybe today wasn’t the best time to try and become acquaintances with him.

He walked to the far end of the room and let out a frustrated noise; his anger was palpable as you felt the machines shake with his mood; all of his focus was enveloped by his emotion, whatever that may be. 

Glass vials, smaller equipment, and even some medical droids were flung against the wall as Vader began to furiously force everything away from him 

Should you leave? Or would he be angry that you were not finished with your job?

You decided to stand and announce your agenda.

“I-I can leave if you nee-” 

He turned faster than you had ever seen him, but his body language relaxed when he saw that it was you and not some other worker. 

“Ahh, officer. I wasn’t aware you were in here. My apologies” he said, heading for the door. 

Why was he leaving? This was his wing after all, if anyone should be leaving, it should be you.

“Wait!” you called. 

He halted and turned back towards you.

“These are your chambers, I should leave so you can be alone” you said, gathering your things.

You headed towards the door when a heavy hand rested on your shoulder making butterflies flutter in your stomach. 

“No, It’s alright. You can stay” He said; his helmet downcast.

Before you could protest he butted in, “And I’ll stay too”. 

You offered him a small smile and went back to the machine you were working on, though you couldn’t help but feel excited by his presence.

Though you needed to be cautious because now that he had calmed down a little, his senses were more on top of things– you didn’t want him to sense the feelings that you didn’t even have sorted out for yourself. 

As you sat on the floor in the middle of all of your tools, Vader seated himself by the table he had just flung. Obviously something was plaguing him and it seemed that a part of him needed to talk.

You took a breath and said “My Lord”.

He turned his head towards you, “Yes, y/n?”.

No title? No formalities?

“Umm, I just wanted to say that… Well, I mean– I-if you ever need to talk or anything at all, I’d be more than happy to listen.

His shoulders seemed to relax, “Pay my plight’s no heed y/n, they most likely wouldn’t peak your interest”. 

“But you interest me” 

Oops. 

You definitely did NOT want to say that out loud. 

“Oh? And what exactly do you mean by that?” he said, voice filled with amusement.

“I-I just mean that you are such a powerful individual and you carry yourself so well” you back tracked.

He let out a low chuckle. 

Darth Vader laughs? Like actually laughs?

You felt an odd sense of pride swell in your stomach that you got the stoic man to chuckle. 

“I hear what you are trying to say, officer” he said, walking over to you.

“Would you like to take a break and talk with me for a moment? Nothing formal, don’t worry” he offered. 

Your heart skipped a beat; this is what you had been hoping for- one on one time with Vader. Suddenly you felt like you were back in school and giddy over your crush asking you to have lunch together. 

But this was real life, he was just being a good boss...right?

“Of course”.

Okay, this headline is killing me.

Of course they knew. It was the worst kept secret in the order. The council talked about it during their caf breaks, I’m sure. They just let Anakin think he’d fooled them. Mace and Yoda probably had a running bet on how long it would take Anakin to realize that they knew. Most of the 501st knew. Everyone knew. Why is this a headline. I’m dying. This has killed me. Send necromancers. I’m dead and posting this from beyond the grave.

Obi-Wan, sighing: Force give me patience.

Ahsoka: I thought it was "Force give me strength"?

Obi-Wan: For most people. But you see, if the Force didn't give me the amount of patience I require, everyone on this ship would be dead.

Many thanks to @charmwasjess for the tag, I've never gotten tagged in this challange before :DD

For writing, here's a little piece of Gone With the Light from yesterday! Girlie is going through it uh oh

“You cannot stay here.”

Asajj had been expecting something like this from the very moment a strange ship had followed her from space into Dathomir’s atmosphere. Surveying the wreckage later had revealed the body of an old colleague of hers—a bounty hunter whose name she could not recall. Someone on Dooku's list of favorite fetch-dogs. She curled her arms around her midsection.

“Mother…”

And here's a wip shot of that bending AU I've been thinking a whole lot about. Avatar!Anakin would be a fucking handful

This is what happened, right?

[antianakin]

Happy fix-it AU where Padme leaves Anakin anyway because she realizes how bad he is for her, and she ends up retiring because she REALLY doesn't want to be a Senator anymore (it was also maybe encouraged by her Queen after her secret marriage to a Jedi was discovered) and she goes back to Naboo to be with her family. She's left behind her responsibilities but she doesn't know what to do now, she's just... adrift, sort-of in limbo and mourning her relationship with Anakin. She has to keep convincing herself not to go back to him because she KNOWS she doesn't want that anymore, she KNOWS she doesn't want to be the person she was with him again, but the thrill of the secret marriage to someone who was so passionate about being with her is also sort-of like a drug.

Her parents both offer to let her come help them in their respective jobs, but she doesn't really have the energy for that right now. She DOES like helping Sola with her nieces because their energy and innocence seems to be a balm for her heart. One day, Sola asks if Padme can take the kids to a local festival in Theed one day while she and her husband go do something else, and Padme agrees. The girls are old enough and Theed is safe enough that they can wander off on their own away from Padme as long as they know not to go TOO far and come back to her after a little while. As she peruses the different artwork on her own, one artist's work stands to her more than anyone else's, it just hits at the core of her and she's not even sure why. She stands in front of a painting of a bird in flight for what seems like hours, though it can't be more than a minute or two, before the artist himself comes over to speak to her.

He addresses her as Senator Amidala, and she quickly tells him that she's not a Senator anymore and she doesn't really want to go by the name Amidala either, she prefers just Padme these days. He agrees, and something about him, maybe his eyes, seems familiar but she can't quite put her finger on it. They talk about his art for a while and everything he says about his inspiration feels like it's speaking directly to her. Eventually, Pooja and Ryoo come up to her and start pulling at her hands, demanding that she come see something with them. Before she leaves, she finally realizes she didn't even know his name and asks him.

It's Palo. The first boy she'd ever loved. The last time she'd seen him she'd been twelve in the Legislative Youth Program. She knew he'd left politics to become an artist instead, but she'd never actually seen any of his art before or ever tried to get back in contact with him. Now she wishes she had. Pooja and Ryoo are still pulling her away so she doesn't have time to really get over her shock at this revelation before she has to leave him behind and someone else comes up to ask him a question in her place.

He shows up at her parents' door the next day with the painting of the bird she'd so adored, and offers it to her as a gift. He refuses to accept any payment for it no matter how much she insists, but asks if she'd be willing to take a walk with him instead. She agrees. They end up spending the whole day together, just talking. For the first time, Padme doesn't feel like she's drowning in her own feelings or floating with no direction. She feels a lot like she's finally come home.
