#dinluke au idea

[swedenis-h]

Din: actively having angst about his kid that he didn’t mean to bond with finding his community, like din found his, accepting that he’s no longer a part of grogu’s life, but understanding that it’s better for grogu to be here than with a family that isn’t right for him

Luke: omg he’s so pretty

Tangled au

[clan--of3]

Modern Earth AU where Din is terrified of dogs and Artoo is Luke's service dog, who has decided that Din isn't afraid enough... Threepio is Leia's Irish setter that was supposed to be Luke's service dog, but flunked out of training because he also has crippling anxiety.

Someone tagged a fic "Artoo [dog] is the bestest boy", like that tripod cattle dog from hell doesn't bite people for fun.

[nothing-but-flowers88]

Ok with the gladiator 2 trailers what about an ancient empire Star Wars au with Din posing as a gladiator with Greef pretending to be his sponsor to get close to his next bounty, only to catch the attention of famous sorcerer he’s never heard of who can see right through his lie and wants to help him. Plus Luke in one of those laurel wreaths would be so cute

[starshipwriting]

DinLuke modern AU except Din works security for Area 51 and accidentally takes a tiny green alien home.

Ben: *sees Lando, a boy who is also a girl*

Ben: … shit.

While You Were Sleeping Dinluke AU:

Subway worker Din saves Leia's life after she's been mugged but she falls into a coma. While visiting her in the hospital with Grogu he's mistaken as her boyfriend by her parents, aunts and uncles. They eminently get enamored with them. At first Din doesn't notice the mix-up and after that he's to embarrassed to correct them. He also loves how much extra love Grogu gets and how happy he's with them.

Obi-Wan later finds out about the mix-up but he'll keep it secret because the accident has brought the family back together after a fallout about Anakin doing shady things with his business. Anakin wants Luke to take over his business but Luke doesn't want anything to do with it which put them into conflict.

During life day celebrations Luke comes back from some self searching time away. He's initially suspicious about Din (and can't believe that Leia and Han broke up), but they fall in love with each other as they spend time together. Luke struggles with his guilty conscience that he seems to be falling for Leia's new partner and Din doesn't know how to tell the truth without everybody hating him.

The truth comes out when Leia wakes up and Han finally comes back. Before the accident Leia proposed to him and he had a freak out so he disappeared with Chewie for a few weeks.

Doth a Good Spouse a Sith make?

Listen, listen.

I know the Sith are....extreme. The Dark Side is addicting and feeds off of power, ambition, pain and hunger for more.

I am aware.

But.

A Sith falling for a Jedi.

Hear me out!

Like, a Mandalorian Sith, preferably, just out doing their Sithly business, I dunno maybe ruling a planet or two, in an AU where the Mandalorians are either few and scattered or an Empire spanning a good chunk of the galaxy.

The Jedi- like for this to work the relationship would either have to be entirely secret from other Jedi or it's a Last!Jedi AU where said Jedi is rebuilding the Order after a Purge.

like a good Sith!Mand'alor!Din and Luke fic....

But the Jedi would absolutely be conflicted, because first, Sith are violent, have little to no morals and once they decide they want something, they usually do everything in their considerable power to have it. Not to mention the typical disregard for people's lives if they aren't useful to them.

So very high potential for a toxic relationship, yes.

But, if we define Sith as being a person who uses the Dark Side of the Force, swears to the Sith Code and has been trained by a Sith Master, we could have a loophole.

If we define a Darksider as someone who uses the Force with strong emotions, emotions such as passion, the justified rage of the oppressed, righteous fury and the bloodlust every person, regardless of race, gender, creed, religion of age should feel towards slavers and people who harm children....

Technically you would have a socially acceptable Sith Darksider who could be a perfect match for a Jedi who maybe has a history with slavers and is spread too thin in a galaxy that is too large for them to make a drastic difference.

Besides, who didn't like the thought of a Jedi, kind, compassionate and strong, who loves children and just wants to be wrapped in soft blankets, fed good food and be given as many hugs as they want with a significant other who is fierce, intimidating, powerful and strong, also loves children and wouldn't hesitate to destroy the galaxy for their family wrap their loved ones in many soft blankets?

Like honestly, what soothes someone's very strong emotions more then someone you care for wrapped up around you and telling you they'll slaughter all your enemies take care of you so you can sleep and bring their power to bare against any who would threaten them keep you safe, and would love to keep you by their side forever marry you?

modern day private detective & assistant au dinluke

Din is a former fugitive recovery agent turned private detective after adopting Grogu, who he found during a case. He still uses his wide connections to find work big or small. He rents/freeloads/??? in a 3-story building owned by Boba. He and Grogu live on the 3rd floor, Din's detective office is 2nd floor and 1st floor is Boba's hybrid cafe-bar.

Luke, struggling college student studying folklore and mythology, works in Boba's cafe part-time. After saving Grogu by smacking a potential kidnapper in the face with his textbook, he becomes the occasional babysitter. Generally cheery and friendly, but will not hesitate to punt point a rude customer out the door. (He knows Boba won't mind)

The progression of Luke and Din's relationship is "Oh Boba's new hire" to "Cute barista that remembers my order" to "Grogu's emergency babysitter" to "Luke that comes in just at the right moment to deliver me free coffee"

Din and Luke are friends, Boba's impressed that Luke managed to befriend Din so quickly and vaguely suspects him of witchcraft (but as long as it brings in cafe customers who cares???)

Soon, Luke spends most of his break up in Din's office, with free coffee brought as an offering, chatting about casual things, and listening to Din vent about the case he's stuck on. And Luke, with his great intuition, often makes remarks that give Din his breakthrough.

Except the thing is, the supernatural exist in this world. The are creatures, there is magic, and the Force kinda exists too. Over half the things Luke is studying??? Yeah, it's real. Hidden, but real. And all those utterly baffling cases Din sometimes got??? Supernatural ties to them. And Luke??? Luke absolutely recognized that and half of his "very intuitive" remarks are him giving Din explanations or hints to gloss over the supernatural portion that Din had no way of knowing.

Eventually, Din finds out that A. magic is real and B. Grogu is not full-human. Oh and C. he attracts all these supernatural-linked cases. So, Luke becomes his supernatural expert who... also may have powers????

Please just weary, private detective Din forever reluctant to accept the supernatural with his sunshine, weirdgirl assistant Luke that will absolutely punch a demon, and the adorable toddler Grogu who clearly has pointed ears and floats shit.

Din trying to solve the missing statue that seemingly teleported across the city and Luke coming in with the supernatural lore of the week. It can be as small, fun mysteries to terrifying shit like an impossible murder caused by Monkey’s Paw. If anyone knows Tokyo Babylon or xxxHolic mix of modern day cases and mysteries with supernatural elements!!

[foggysirens]

Hmmm...things to ponder/pass the time... How about:

Who would win in a staring contest between Din and Cas?

In your Skywalker Hunters AU, will there be DinLuke, and if so does that mean Grogu will be their Jack? Who is Han going to be? Will Cal/Ezra/Ahsoka/etc make an appearance as a fellow hunter? (Presuming none of this is spoilers, ofc)

Any other AUs of either title/franchise you've ever been tempted to explore but haven't yet?

1. If we are talking about both characters playing by the rules of their own canon then I'd say Cas would win - I am a firm believer in that the angels don't actually need to blink or breathe or anything like that but we see them do so simply because they are trying to put humans at ease so it becomes a force of habit - plus he just has lots of practice from staring at Dean lol - but if we're going on like an even playing field ,,, I do think Cas would still win JUST because I feel Din would be too used to wearing his helmet and armour and like ,,, subconsciously forget and blink

2. Yes! There will be Dinluke in my Skywalker Hunters AU! I do have big plans for this fic and in my mind I'm already planning it out like a series so the Dinluke aspect wont come until a little later (the second part probably, if my mental spreadsheet is correct lol) because like canon Supernatural I do intend to have the beginning focus on Luke and Leia and their sibling dynamic moreso than any romantic aspects BUT that being said I do plan to have both Hanleia and Dinluke in the fic because I love both ships too dearly to not to THAT ALSO BEING SAID not a spoiler cause I just kind of mentioned it already. Still, I do plan to have Han in the fic as well, what role he will be playing shall remain a secret - still, I will say that he's a fellow hunter (and that I may be forging my own trails a bit when it comes to certain characters and plotlines,,, gotta keep things fresh, ya know?) - as well as Grogu, his character is definatly going to show up. You're on the mark with him being a Jack parallel! As for any other characters, I don't have any solid plans - most likely the other Jedi will show up as hunters because it just fits so well, but reading your ask I did get the, admittedly crack-ish, idea for Cal and Ezra to show up as the Ghostfacers ahfabkff

3. Yes as well! I've been wanting to dip my toe into the Destiel/Supernatural fic scene for a while now and just haven't really gotten the confidence to do so - and once I do I think I'll probably start with some canon-setting fics first- but I've been dreaming up AUs for a while and one that I keep coming back to is a Professional Wrestling AU! I love wrestling and the idea started as a loose Dinluke idea, but now I think it fits Supernatural/Destiel a lot better I feel - like okay just imagine Dean and Sam being these legacy wrestling sons of pros John and Mary who helped build the popularity of Total Federation Wrestling, or TFW (see what I did there? lol), back in the 70s/80s until the company became the biggest name in wrestling and how Dean and Sam would have started wrestling young and have been brought up in the business and in the squared circle and on tv and how they'd develop their characters to be a tag-team act together, but once Sam quits to go to college Dean starts his solo career as the playboy babyface who rules the ring but all the while he's feeling stuck and looking for something more - something real and not kayfabe - aaaaand that's where i'll leave that because a) i haven't decided if Cas in this AU would be another wrestler from a different company who they bring on because they want Dean to have a heel turn and need a new top babyface OR if he would be the doctor who Dean meets after a botched match and b) this is getting too long lol

[truly-neutral-art]

I have too many DinLuke ideas and I need opinions other than my own. What should I focus on first? I'm crippled by decision making. (I'll put more detailed descriptions below the cut if you care about that)

Feel free to comment any other opinions, I am struggling with the indecision. And if anyone wants to scream with me about any of these ideas I would welcome it with open arms :)

Meet Pre ANH AU: Din and Luke meet while Din is on a job on Tatooine and Luke inserts himself into Din's job (because he's bored) Din gets injured and has to spend time recovering under Luke's care and they fall for each other. Din has to leave once he recovers and promises to come back for Luke as soon as possible but, unbeknownst to both of them, Luke is pregnant.

Fantasy AU: Sort of a King Arthur vibe with Din finding the Darksaber and needing to reclaim the ancient kingdom of Mandalore. Din doesn't desire the throne, simply wanting to take care of Grogu (a boy he saved from a band of thieves) but he can't avoid his destiny. Luke is a Druid who wants to teach Grogu, who has Druid abilities, how to use magic and ends up assisting Din on his quest. The usual suspects also show up and help along the way.

Post S2 canon divergence: This is just my take on a slow burn gffa dinluke with a lot of the usual tropes. Mostly just "the wacky adventures of The Jedi and The Mandalorian: acquire children" because I need more of that in my life.

Greek Mythology AU: Luke is the demigod son of Anakin, the god of the heavens. He grew up to be a renowned hero, as many demigods do, and was sent on many quests. His newest quest sends him to the underworld to deliver a gift to the god of the dead. Little does he know, a vengeful god and the king who sent him on his quest have set him up. When Luke gets to underworld he finds out that he was meant to be the gift. Now he has to deal with Din, the god of the dead, who is outraged by Luke's arrival.

Apocalypse AU: The world has been taken over by a sickness that horrifically mutates people, animals, and even plants into killing machines. Din is just another survivor trying to make it through another day but finds his priorities change when he meets Grogu. Not long after taking in the child, Din realizes that the young boy has the ability to influence the creatures that have taken over the world. When people come after Grogu for his abilities Din has to put his trust into a mysterious man, Luke, to keep his son safe.

Medieval fantasy AU: The new Duke of Mandalore, Din Djarin, comes to Coruscant, the capital of the United Republic of Kingdoms, to sign treaties and make alliances. Many people expect Din to marry to strengthen his position so all eyes are on him, much to his discomfort. Meanwhile the Skywalker family's position is threatened by old enemies, leaving them vulnerable to attack. To solve both their problems Luke and Din get married, but now they have to convince everyone that this is a love match and not a marriage of convenience.

Harry Potter AU: This was mostly inspired by a comedy bit pointing out that Harry Potter was just Star Wars but with shitty lightsabers. The story would take place during the tri-wizard tournament and follow a similar storyline to the original. However, this has a focus on the romance between Din and Luke (obviously), the champion from Mandalore (Durmstrang) and the chosen one respectively. (Also I can make Luke trans just to stick it to JKR)

Spy X Family AU: Luke is a spy sent to look after Grogu who is an asset to the republic. Din found Grogu first on a job and is informed of Grogu’s importance by the mandos (mercenary guild). Republic wants Grogu to become a politician that can unite the two factions (Republic and Imperials). Mandos want Grogu to be knowledgeable of Mandalorians and be sympathetic to their causes. Both want Grogu to go to this elite school (has family requirements) that lead to Din and Luke making a fake family with Grogu to further the goals of their respective sides.

[casiavium]

I'm sooo bored at work but having ideas beyond my energy and time so. Ghiralink AU loosely based on Orpheus/Eurydice

Link literally plays a lyre so. Orpheus

Ghirahim as Eurydice but instead of being dead he's left without a master and acts more like Fi at the beginning of the game, emotionless and blank. He's Hylia's sword before Demise's but betrays her or Demise steals him. Post game Link wants to bring him back to the light side or whatever

Demise and Hylia as concepts/spirits/disembodied entities (??) Would exist in a plane of existence of their own that's like the Underworld but not quite since they're deities that can't "die". Maybe connected to the Master Sword.

This makes them Hades and Persephone. they're divorced even though they were never married. It's funnier this way

The Hylia part of Zelda's soul separated from her when Demise was sealed in the Master Sword and that part now exists like how there's gods for rivers and mountains and cities and they're a god but also the land itself . She's like that for the Surface/future Hyrule

Part of how Hylia keeps Demise sealed is by being trapped inside the Master Sword with him which would give Hyrule seasons

Also Hylia as Persephone (as opposed to like. Fi who is already in the sword) is good because Persephone was seen as the cruel one out of the two. She opposes Link trying to get Ghirahim back because he had a chance and betrayed her

Fi serves as the spirit of the River Lethe because I want her to. The Master Sword acts as reverse invulnerability: it's the Achilles heel of the incarnation of Demise's hatred and the only thing that can seal the darkness

This has nothing to do with ghiralink I just like Greek mythology

Link makes a deal with Demise & Hylia to bring him back, has to guide him out of somewhere (like Skyview Temple maybe) by only playing the goddess harp to remind him of 1. When he was Hylia's sword and 2. Trying to resurrect Demise by chasing down Zelda. He can't look back to see if Ghirahim is following and he doesn't actually see Ghirahim, just his sword, so he doesn't even know if the spirit inside is listening

Idk how it ends. It doesn't have to be 1:1 mythology but I think ending with him looking back would be less tragic than the original myth? Because Ghirahim was never his to begin with to he's not really losing anything

ITS DINLUKE WEEK!!1!

This an old au idea I had with my friend keylime about Luke and Leia going to ✨political parties✨ to gain allies for the New Republic! Of course dinluke shenanigans occur, we can’t have politics and daddy issues the WHOLE time 🙄✋

June 11th prompt: The Senate Deals with DinLuke Shenanigans (@dinlukeweek)

[starshipwriting]

Follow up to the AU in which Din accidentally takes an alien home from his Area 51 job

-

"patuu"

Din stared at the little green alien that was all too comfortably sitting in his back seat, half under the jacket he'd tossed back there. Its ears were probably the same size as the rest of its body, and its eyes made up most of its head.

He was thoroughly screwed.

He had no idea how the little bugger had gotten out of whatever containment the government had put it in and into his car.

There were two options now. He could go back to base, where he wasn't even supposed to be for a month, and hopefully not get decked trying to return the little thing. Or he could take it home. The second option had a slightly smaller chance of him dying.

Din sighed and pulled out his phone, scrolling through his contacts till he found the one he was looking for.

'Desert Boy <3'

He chewed on his bottom lip for a moment before pressing call and waiting for the other to pick up.

"Heyyy Cyar'ika" His husband's voice came over the phone, a familiar comfort. "Are you on your way home?"

"yes meshla, I'm on my way home." Din looked back at the little alien again. "Hey Luke, you know how you've been asking for another pet?"

"yes. Oh are you bringing home another cat? Artoo could really use a friend" Luke responded, a smile practically in his tone.

"not exactly" Din wasn't sure how to breach the subject. "It's more like a child."

Luke was quiet for a moment. "Is it an alien?"

Din sighed, hoping he wasn't about to get divorced. "Yes, it's an alien"

There was another pause, and Din couldn't help but feel nervous about what Luke could be thinking. Finally Luke responded. "I'm naming it Grogu."

Din's mouth twitched upwards into a smile. "Alright. I'll see you in a few hours cyar'ika." He hung up as Luke startled mumbling to himself about what the hell was an alien child supposed to eat. Everything would be fine, probably.

"Patuu!"

[lukeskywormie]

FORMULA ONE DINLUKE AU!!!!

small idea turned into madness (it hasnt left my head for 2 days help me)
