#the belonging you seek

[emperorren]

“I mean Rey’s belonging at this point *could* still be interpreted as her finding a family and purpose in the friends she met and fought with rather than the parents who left her” This is what I also thought at first, but I feel like the trailer line of no one knowing Rey and the hints in marketing that she feels isolated have ruled that option out; if the movie was going to be about her finding her belonging with the Resistance, then she probably wouldn’t be with the Resistance at the start

Update: Chapter 20 - veritas || Rating for veritas: General? Teen?

Summary for the belonging you seek: A collection of one-shots and prompt fills, sometimes smutty. Very little plot development. Welcome to the trash can.

Preview for veritas:

I love you. Even he is shocked when the words come to him as he crouches in the debris of the filthy abandoned rebel base on Crait. He can feel the weight of his father’s dice in his hands, matching the heaviness of his heart, the traitorous organ still beating despite all the times he’s willed it to stop. He can see her ushering her friends onto the ship that had once almost been his destiny, can see as she prepares to close the door on him.

Their eyes catch.

I absolutely loved your college AU prompt that you just posted! And I saw your tags, so just so you know, TA/student relationships aren't illegal at all, don't worry haha. A lot of the time you just have to tell the school/department head that you're seeing a student, fill out some paperwork and they don't mind so much. At the start of my PhD I got a lecture on how dating students isn't a huge deal, they just ask you not to mark the student's work if you're seeing each other :)

Hahahaha yessss. Thank you SO MUCH @bb-8 for this necessary follow-up content. Glad to know that the only obstruction in this particular AU Ben/Rey’s future will be some annoying paperwork. 😂 

(I was trying to rationalize it in my head - “They’re both students, aren’t they???” - but it clearly didn’t stop me from writing it, either lol). 

Thanks again for the info (and for reading!!) ♥️♥️♥️

I really enjoy reading all of your prompts from 'the belonging you seek' on AO3. Was wondering if you're planning on adding more? You don't know how much I love an done of them. They're all magnificent. Kudos to you!

Hi lovely anon! Thanks for the Q and I’m so glad you’ve been enjoying my fics. I will be adding more to ”the belonging you seek”! In fact, I currently have three short fics in the works that will be added once they’re finished (hopefully soon 🤞), plus another handful of prompts people have sent me that are still waiting to be filled. Feel free to check out my prompt list (if you haven’t already) and send me one, too, if you like!!

Thanks again for reading and letting me know what you think ♥️♥️♥️
