Black Hat

Rose gets mixed up with an unscrupulous cowboy, but luckily she can hire a cold-blooded scoundrel to solve that problem. The question is … can she trust him? Good thing she's not squeamish herself and knows how to handle a gun.

Western AU Ficlet ^^

Read it on AO3

@high-waving-heather thank you for betaing the ficlet :D <3

[jessequinnfirstofhername]

The Rules:

Every twenty-four hours there will be another round. After every round, the ship in last place will be eliminated.

If there are multiple ships tying for last place, there will be a special elimination round. In these rounds, every ship in last place will be eliminated, even if all the ships have tied equally.

When there are only two ships remaining, they will face off against one another in a week-long poll to determine the victor.

If the ship that you consider the best isn't listed here, hit the 'the best polarizing ship is ___' option and reply to this post with the overlooked ship. The ship with the highest 'write-in' votes will be added to the next round. Unless the 'the best polarizing ship is ___' option is the least voted for, in which case it will be eliminated. Welcome to the party, VaderLuke/AniLuke!

Addendum to Rule 4: Only polarizing ships are allowed. Yes, I'm sure your OTP is awesome, but if there's no proof of it being polarizing then it unfortunately cannot be added to the poll.

This is all for fun. Don't take it too seriously ;)

...so. I'm going to cheat.

The least voted for option in Round One was the 'the best polarizing ship is ___' option. However, because I love chaos, I'm going to replace it with the most 'written-in' polarizing ship instead of eliminating it altogether.

...and that ship is...

VaderLuke! (Sometimes also referred to as 'AniLuke').

Please direct all death threats to my inbox, thank-you! :)

A special shout-out to the other 'write-in' options: Rexsoka, Kryzecest, and Kyluxma

Round Two!

[a-splendor-like]

it's been a long, hot day on this forest planet, and Rose is about to go jump in the pond. and Hux? he might just have to follow... strictly for cleanliness...

.

.

Rose floats on her back, kicking her legs gently, the canopy of trees backlit by the late-afternoon sun. Her basics are just a suggestion at this point, plastered to her skin, but at least now they're saturated with cool water instead of sweat.

"Tico--"

Her progress is halted when she collides with him, a gentle, accidental bump of her head into his warm bare chest. "Oh," Rose says quietly, righting herself in the water.

Rose has a strict policy with Hux, one of Not Apologizing. She figures, after everything, it's just. But when she finds herself treading water so close to him that her skin brushes his, she's unable to think of anything else to say. "Sorry," she breathes, her voice a whisper.

He's looking into the space between them, where one end of Rose's breast band has begun to unravel; and Rose takes advantage of his distraction to study up close the lines of his face and shoulders. She's heard about the First Order hazing, the things his own father said about him. She catalogs the patterns in the ink that creeps up his arms and across his shoulders. Camouflage, she thinks. Something to hide behind.

When she looks him full in the face, he's giving her one of those looks--the kind they've spent weeks or months pretending not to see. Something warm brushes against her side, and again--his fingers, a delicate, tentative touch. Rose crowds in closer, one leg making gentle contact with his in the water. Hux lets her, his hand splaying against her back, and Rose finally closes the distance between their lips. She's not apologizing for this, either.

Thank you for the tag, @oh-great-authoress! 🥰

Three ships:

Reylo

Spock x Uhura

Gingerrose

(It’s hard to pick just three!)

First ship:

Probably Ash x Misty and Jessie x James from Pokémon; I can’t remember having any other ships before them.

Unless you mean which ship I first read fanfiction for - in that case Puzzleshipping from Yugioh, and Spock x Uhura from the Star Trek reboot.

Last Song: Since You Been Gone by Rainbow

Last Movie: The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952)

I only had time to watch the first two minutes; I hope I’ll get the time to watch it all the way through in the next few weeks! 🤣

Currently reading: The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan

A Lightyear in your shoes

by Spiegatrix

A tall figure stops at the wrecked doorway of what’s left of the Tico living pod. For a moment Rose struggles to see. The air is thick with fog, smoke, and just their breaths. She squints as the stranger takes a few steps toward them, and when a tick, wooly great coat is draped around her and her sister’s little bodies, she can only grasp at it eagerly even though she can barely feel her hands anymore.

The face staring at her and Paige belongs to a man in an Imperial uniform. His features are not monstrous like Rose had imagined from the tales of the villagers. He’s a man, a common man with green eyes and a fiery red beard. She had never seen someone like him, and she just stares at him in awe and fear. There’s not an ounce of kindness in his eyes as he lifts Rose in his arms, still wrapped in his coat, and holds her firmly against his hip before offering his free, gloved hand for Paige to grab.

DAY 6: Modern AU

Rose and Hux share their snapchats with each other. What that really means is that Rose uploads photos for both of them. 

[gerdavonrinnlingen]

Rose discovers that a particularly dangerous prisoner has been given access to droids - supposedly to repair them. She decides to keep an eye on Hux ...

We’ve had our first casualty! After the elimination round, it’s time to say goodbye to Reylux.

One down, eleven to go… feel free to defend your problematic OTP in the notes. I always love to see propaganda 😉

Fic Recs Asks # 2 (A fic you've re-read multiple times!)

Okay, I know this is so late, but it got buried in my asks, and I just saw this again; I’m very sorry, Anna!

2. A fic you’ve re-read several times

Okay, this is a supremely loaded question—but I’ll try to keep this as short as possible.

Okay, so here goes.

All the fics in the first question you asked me here apply to this question, but I’ll give different answers for this question.

Ahem—

Basically everything that @musewrangler has written, but most especially:

The Empire Reimagined Series and its accompanying Oneshot Series

This marvelous Original Trilogy Canonverse AU has EVERYTHING, Skywalker Family FEELS, badassery, action, humor, *chef’s kiss* banter, and it’s AMAZING.

This series is pure serotonin and it’s absolutely precious.

I wish I could hug this AU and everyone in it, frankly.

A Star to Steer By

This Georgian/Age of Sail AU is the perfect combination of Star Wars with Patrick O’Brien’s Aubrey-Maturin series/C. S. Forester’s Hornblower series vibes, and the perfect balance of action, humor, FEELS, and ride-or-die bestieism.

The Limpet AU by Frodogenic

This is Original Trilogy Canonverse AU comedy/family feels goodness, and this series made me look crazy with how much I was cackling while reading it; I mean, you have Skywalker Family Feels, Darth (Grand)Dadakin, and Admiral Piett is DONE With Life.

You will have emotions in some parts, and want to bust a gut laughing in others; I know I did.

One of my jams is Leia makes up with Dad fics, so these are a few:

Father and Daughter by Morwen Tindomerel

This references some events from Legends but it’s still quite in canon up to now.

gunpowder and shades of grey by irnan

This fic uses the Legends names of Leia’s children, just so you know.

Restless Warrior by Aria Saralyn

This is a oneshot longform masterwork.

This must be read.

Darkness by Firefly Alchemist

After Ben Solo turns to the Dark Side, Anakin comforts his daughter.

The Skywalker Family Feels Series by salanaland

This series focuses on Anakin trying to Dad after he dies, and while there are a couple of stories about Luke and Anakin, one about Anakin annoying Obi-Wan in the Force, and one or two following/focusing on other characters, this story mainly focuses on Anakin and Leia, and I just love Anakin’s characterization here—it honestly tracks that he’d be like he is in this series.

Wastelands by Mistress_Siana

Leia crash lands on a planet, and with danger imminent, she must rely on a certain Force Ghost to help her make her shuttle spaceworthy once more.

Her reconciliation with Anakin is ambiguous here, but they come to an understanding of sorts.

Wish I Could Be by @melanoradrood

This actually should also be in the category of fics that made me cry, because the first time I read this, it honestly made me cry.

This is one of the best Dramione fics I have EVER read, and every moment just hits RIGHT.

It’s a Fourth Year canon compliant fic, and it’s just… Lord, I cannot recommend this enough.

Steel Flowers; Paper Hearts by @girl-among-mts

This Canonverse AU Gingerrose fic had me grinning like a maniac when I read it, and each time I reread it, my heart just melts into a puddle.

It’s part character study, part developing love story, and 100% fluffy goodness.

Chapter One of Secret Garden by @girl-among-mts

This is part of a seven chapter anthology my friend @girl-among-mts wrote for Gingerrose Week 2021, and… oof…

How do I describe this fic?

Well, let’s just say my competency kink… well, it was very happy.

First Order IT, Can I Get Your User ID? by krossartist

This was the modern IT Guy!Ben/Mechanic!Rey AU I did not know that I needed.

It is a ride of emotions and humor, and I love this story.

Christmas in the Clink by dawninthemtn

This is a Meet Not-So-Cute Reylo story where Lawyer!Ben Solo ends up bailing his parents and uncle out of jail on Christmas Eve, but there’s already someone there for his uncle—his uncle’s beautiful neighbor, Rey.

Tell Your Parents to Subscribe! by dawninthemtn

This is a Reylo AU where Ben is a Mr. Rogers-esque figure, and Rey is the journalist for a BuzzFeed-esque website, who interviews him.

queen of my heart (body and soul) by hi_raeth

This is a Reylo Princess Diaries 2 AU which had me smiling like a madwoman when I read it.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown by CatelynTsukino

This is a Jaime Lannister/Lyanna Stark GoT AU (they’d have been perfect for each other if she’d lived), where Jaime ends up as King after killing Aerys, and ends up marrying Lyanna.

They fall in love somewhere along the way.
