Random thoughts during A New Hope:

*Rogue One really did enhance the first scene of this movie for me. They went through such an epic battle to get those plans, and now they must follow through to honor the sacrifice that brave crew made. Get ‘em!

*I just love R2-D2 and C3-PO. Those damned droids have changed hands so many times, and yet, they’ve been kept in the family.

*Leia Organa was the original. She’s such a badass. Smart, snippy, resourceful, all around brilliant character.

*GNK or gonk droids are also amongst my favorite. I wouldn’t want one personally, but I appreciate that they exist.

*I’d forgotten C3-PO’s first job was programming binary load lifters. Holy shit! I’m going to assume because his memory was wiped at the end of The Revenge of the Sith that it wasn’t the same binary load lifters that Ahsoka and Trace chased down in the under city on Coruscant, and none of that was C3-PO’s fault (though it wouldn’t surprise me).

*Owen blatantly telling C3-PO to shut up is peak Star Wars. Seriously.

*That red R2 unit’s motivator blowing at the moment that it did was either a fine example of how coincidentally chaotic the universe is, or how incredibly the force works in mysterious ways… and since this is Star Wars…

*It warms my heart that Luke was still playing with that space ship that Obi-Wan gave him so many years ago.

*C3-PO telling Luke that he’s not good at storytelling is also bullshit. We saw you in The Return of the Jedi telling your story to the Ewoks… with your compelling narrative and your sound effects. Come on.

*Since Owen calls Old Ben a wizard, does this mean Obi-Wan was being ballsy and tinkering around with the force after his rescue of Leia? Is that what the kids are calling Jedi these days? Space wizards?

*I love how Obi-Wan emerges using force scream to frighten off the sand people. That might be a power I would want. I dunno. It wouldn’t be my first choice if choices are given.

*I also wonder why Obi-Wan doesn’t seems to remember R2-D2 and C3-PO. How could he forget them? They were always there running around with him in space…ESPECIALLY, R2-D2.

*Oops. Luke just called the droids “robots”. Close, not quite.

*Leia probably could have resisted it, but I wonder why Vader opted to use drugs to get the location of the Rebel base and not mind probe? That’s a power all good Sith Lords should possess.

*I really wish Disney would release the original versions of the original trilogy before it was digitally remastered. I watched it hundreds, if not thousands, of times on VHS before they did it, but it’s hard to remember and I’d like to.

*Luke’s Intro to Jedi mind tricks.

*Obi-Wan is the undisputed king of chopping off arms.

*You also have to give it to Obi-Wan when he pulls out the lightsaber in the cantina in the first place. Balls. It didn’t seem to bother the majority of the patrons that there was a Jedi in their midst, people looked, the Bith band kicked back up and folks returned to their drinks. Still, there’s always a fascist rat in the crowd someplace that squeals to the Empire. Every. Time.

*”I’m never coming back to this planet again.” -Luke. Don’t be so sure.

*Han shot first.

*One of my least favorite things about the digitally remastered version of A New Hope is the conversation between Han and Jabba in the hangar. Han and Greedo had the exact same conversation in the cantina that he and Jabba had in that hangar verbatim. It’s almost as if Lucas just couldn’t help himself as the Jabba/ Han conversation was probably his original plan that he couldn’t pull off when Star Wars was originally released. And at this point, they couldn’t replace the Han/ Greedo interaction because it is iconic. Now, it all feels like a pointless, redundant afterthought. Also, it’s odd that Han calls a Jabba a wonderful human being. What!?! Jabba is a huge f*^%ing space slug! TF you mean, “human being”?

*The Millennium Falcon is a badass ship. That is all.

*I can’t stand Tarkin. He’s such a f*^%ing fascist asshole.

*Oh Alderaan…. The Empire did that shit on purpose. They blamed / tried to guilt Leia, but I bet they wanted to take out Bail equally bad. RIP Bail.

*”That’s no moon. It’s a space station!” -Obi-Wan. You can feel that HOLY SHIT moment. Yeah. I don’t know. It’s one part Geonosian (because those stupid f*^%ing bugs) and one part Galen Erso… luckily, Galen rigged it to blow. The bugs would have destroyed the galaxy.

*This goes without saying, but stormtroopers are kinda stupid.

*Tarkin says “the Jedi are extinct”. Nah, fam, there are, like, four of them and a part-timer…

*I have to wonder what all the water was in the trash compactor. Was it sewage, or… ? Yuck. Get out of there! There’s some sort of space worm in there amongst human excrements and god knows what else!

*I appreciate the fact that they left the scene where the stormtrooper hits his head on the door in the digitally remastered version.

*Luke tells C3-PO to shut up. See!?! Peak, I’m telling you.

*Vader telling Obi-Wan that he’s the master is laughable. No. You’re still not a master. You’re Palpatine’s bitch.

* Turns out, Anakin was the death of Obi-Wan. Sadly, Obi-Wan becomes one with the cosmic force. It’s okay. He will manifest himself into a force ghost. Now there are three Jedi and a part-timer…

*Does a simulator where you sit in those gunner seats of the Millennium Falcon and blow up tie fighters exist? If it doesn’t, it’s a hugely missed opportunity in every arcade on the planet. What a game that would be! I’d play.

*They’ve got 15 minutes to blow that shit up before it beats them to the punch.

*I feel like Wedge Antilles is an often underrated character. Wedge is an utter badass, and one hell of a pilot.

*Three minutes.

*One minute.

*Thirty seconds.

*”You may fire when ready.” F*^% you, Tarkin.

*Han comes in clutch. Luke blows up the technological terror (and Tarkin). Party on Yavin!!

*I can’t believe that Chewy will have to wait until The Rise of Skywalker to receive his medal.

Summary: Alternate Universe- What if Anakin's mother survived and Anakin never went dark side. Padme has the twins on Tatooine and survives. Anakin tries to help the surviving Jedi, while still keeping his family secret. Meanwhile Darth Sidious has been crowned emperor and is going after the remaining Jedi. Rumors have it he's looking for a new apprentice. Anakin gets to be a daddy.

Hello, I've added another chapter to my story, Return of the Survivors today. Below is a small snippet. Please click one of my links above to read more.

Chapter 81 - Ingenious Workaround

“And what did they say about using the flats at point three-three-one for landing?” Dodonna asked.

“A strict no. That land is sacred to them. The Yrashu would never allow foreigners to walk on that land, let alone land a spacecraft,” replied Master Coleman Kcaj, who along with his Padawan, had been negotiating with the natives. “But they were willing to help us transport supplies from landing points seven through nine. And they mentioned bringing along a type of pack animal to help.

Dodonna winced. He didn’t think the natives quite understood the weight of the items they were agreeing to carry. “Are you sure they can’t be persuaded to let us use them temporarily? I’d really rather have them during the first phase of construction, when we need to bring in the beams for our foundation. They’re solid stone, and it’ll take forever to go that distance.”

Coleman sighed. “Short of being declared citizens, I don’t know of any way to persuade them.” the Ongree scratched the side of his head, above his left eyestalk. “We’ve offered them a fortune, but it’s still not enough. It’s a long, and deeply engraved tradition, I’m afraid.

Dodonna looked up. “Well, what about it?”

“Hmm?” Coleman inquired.

“Being declared citizens. What would it take?”

“Oh,” Coleman blinked several times. Clearly he had not thought of that. “It would take a ritual, I understand the natives call it a ‘Momu .’ Other than that, I haven’t been able to learn much on it. R2-D2 didn’t even have the word in his dictionary. It’s only been in recent conversations, thanks to C3-PO, that I’ve heard the word mentioned. I can inquire more about them, if you think it’ll help.”

"Yes, you do that. I'm going to see if we can divide the rest of the supplies into smaller portions. Ideally whatever weight these pack animals can carry," Dodonna closed. He pulled a stylus from behind his ear and pulled out his datapad. "Hopefully I'll have it done before the next ship arrives." Dodonna’s ship was only the first ship the Rebellion was sending. Most of his men were soldiers and they were there to make sure things on site were secure. The next group would contain the builders Bail was able to muster. He knew at least one architect would be among them, and he hoped they had the patience of a Jedi, to deal with all the hiccups of doing this.

***

“Master.”

A wave of a hand silences the Padawan.

“Master,” Leo whispered.

With a sigh the Master left his meditation and items around the space fell from where they were floating. He reached out and picked up a comlink, which had been flashing, to read the message on its screen. “Alright, you may come out of meditation. We are almost at Beskarn, but we have time for a little more training.”

“Ooooooooh.” Leo groaned. “Can I atleast take this off my head?” He motioned to the holobook he was balancing precariously on the top of his head.

“But it helps your balance,” Kento Merek said with a hint of humor to his voice.

“Uh-huh,” Leo groaned. He blushed to think of what their practice sessions looked like to the crew walking by. All his father’s and brother’s crazy stories about learning under Obi-Wan, at least the man didn’t make them walk around with a holobook on their heads.

“One more time. I want to see how your improved posture helps with those forms,” Kento ordered.

Leo sighed. He pulled out his lightsaber and stepped into the first position, making sure the holobook stayed in its place...

Could you write a cute sequel to the Padawan! Anakin and Padawan! Reader oneshot, where they have a secret wedding two years later?

Anakin Skywalker x Reader ~ Can I Kiss You? (Pt 2)

Summary: Two years after their first kiss, Padawan!Anakin and Padawan!Reader return to the gardens of Naboo for their wedding

Warnings: Nothing. Once again, this is fluff. A bit more emotions thrown in this time, but cute fluff nonetheless!

Words: 1.6k

A/N: I can’t believe someone requested a sequel for one of my fics!! That’s so exciting!! The first part is one of my favorite fics I’ve ever written and I hope I did justice with the second <3. Also! You don’t need to have read the first part to understand this. But I do think it makes it more fun, as I kinda tied them together :)

Part 1

gif credit

“Can you believe we made it?”

Anakin’s voice broke you out of your trance. You were sitting on the grass and leaning against him, head resting on his shoulder with his arms hugging you from behind. The palace’s gardens once again surrounded you; the familiar fresh, flowery scent intoxicating.

You hummed, turning your head up and looking at him. He looked down at you and smiled.

“Hi,” His voice held his laughter, teasing.

“Hi,” You replied, mirroring his happiness.

You connected your lips with his, both of you grinning into the kiss. His metal hand came up, fingers gently holding your jaw as he deepened the kiss. Your mind wandered, remembering your first kiss. Here.

You were pulled back to the present as his tongue gently swiped across your lower lip. You opened your mouth slightly, allowing him access. As he swirled his tongue around yours, your head spun. Your hands wove into his hair and pulled on the back of it lightly, making him groan into you. You smirked, loving the effect you had on him. He grabbed your waist, pulling you around so that you were straddling his thighs. You broke from his lips, trailing kisses up and down the side of his neck.

Missing the feeling of your lips, he pulled you back up, reconnecting them with his own. You kissed and kissed and kissed until you couldn’t anymore, breaking apart only once you were positively breathless. You leaned your forehead against his, chests heaving as you relaxed.

“We’re gonna be late for our own ceremony if you keep distracting me like that”

You lightly smacked his chest, throwing your head back and gaping in mock-offense. “Now who’s the one that shoved their tongue down my throat?”

“Well I guess that’d have to be me… considering you haven’t kissed anyone else…” He trailed off, looking at you somewhat sheepishly to gauge your reaction

“Anakin! That is rude! And unkind! And completely accurate, you kriffing asshole!” You said, laughing the entire time. Anakin joined in, sighing in relief when he realized you weren’t mad at him.

“Rude and unkind? I’d say that’s slightly dramatic, Y/N”

“And where do you think I picked up the dramatic flair, hmm?” You shot back, quirking your eyebrows and glaring at him playfully.

Anakin rolled his eyes but, intelligently, didn’t argue. He just chuckled, pulling you back in for another kiss. You obliged but quickly pulled away, laughing as he pouted at you.

“Now, come on! We’re going to be late for our own ceremony if you keep distracting me like that!” You said, mocking him.

You got up and started skipping away before he could retort, smiling as you heard his footsteps scrambling to catch up with you. He pulled your hand into his, leaning down to press a fleeting kiss against your cheek.

He pulled you forward and you laughed as he stopped to spin you around. Your breath caught as you felt yourself tripping over your own feet and squealed as you came in contact with Anakin’s strong chest.

You buried your face into him and he rubbed up and down your arms. As he peppered kisses into your hair, you did the same on his collarbone. Moments like this were what you wished you could live in forever. Just two people in love. Without the pressure of the Jedi, the Council, any of it. You wished you didn’t need to hide your relationship, your happiness. But you truly believed that any sacrifice would be worth keeping Anakin in your life.

It had taken months of planning to even get the time to slip away with Anakin. Luckily, the Council thought you and Anakin worked well together and frequently allowed you to go on missions together. Granted, you both usually ended up in front of the Council trying to justify why you disobeyed their orders on these missions. Even if it was your idea, Anakin would always try to take the blame, despite you constantly telling him it was unnecessary. However, Anakin did have a point when he said that he was the Chosen One; they wouldn’t expel him from the order because of a series of poor decisions. He said that even if you didn’t have the Council’s protection, you could count on his.

To be fair, he wasn’t wrong. That’s why those fights never lasted. Most of your fights were like that. Silly, stupid arguments that almost always boiled down to the fear of losing each other. And, by the next morning, you were always curled back in bed together, unable to bear the idea of being apart.

“Y/N?”

You looked up, shaking yourself out of your own head.

“Yeah?”

Anakin looked at you quizzically. “You alright, my love?” He asked, concern evident in his voice.

You nodded. “Perfect.”

You were about to marry the most perfect man in the entire world. Kind, beautiful, giving, protective, understanding, flawed, yours. As if “perfect” even began to describe how you were feeling. You weren’t sure anything could. When you joined the Jedi Order, you never thought you’d get this. Love. And yet, here you were.

Anakin leaned in, kissing your nose. “Me, too,” He whispered in your ear.

You walked up to the secluded altar where Obi-Wan, R2D2, and C3-PO stood. You thanked the stars for Obi-Wan; he had done so much to ensure that your secret stayed that way and you could successfully marry the love of your life.

You stood, looking at Anakin. He held your hands and you gave his a squeeze. It was a signal that had developed over the years; whenever one of you needed reassurance or just wanted to remind them that you loved them, you’d squeeze the other’s hand. As per usual, he immediately returned the gesture.

Obi-Wan cleared his throat. “Y/N, would you like to go first?”

You looked at him, mouthing a quick “thank you” and nodding. He smiled right back. Obi-Wan had become a good friend of yours over the years. You were quite grateful that he was here on this wondrous day.

You took a deep breath, looking into Anakin’s deep eyes. “Anakin, when I first met you I thought you were reckless, arrogant at times, insubordinate…” You trailed off as he gave you an amused look, clearly wondering where you were going with this.

“Gorgeous,” You added in, “and, truly, so much more. Now, while I still think of you that way, I’ve grown to love it. You inspire me, you believe in me, you understand me in a way that I thought was impossible for one person to understand another. You’re strong and loving and you always keep me safe. You make me laugh and smile and giddy and… happy. I still remember, two years ago, when you made me choke an apple and kissed me, all in one day. And that feeling I had when our lips first touched, it has remained, constant, since that moment. I want to spend my life with you. And I don’t want to put that off for another second.”

Anakin’s eyes were misty with tears by the time you finished speaking. It was hard for him to fathom -- that he’d found someone who cared about him that much. For once in his life, he believed that there was someone who wouldn’t leave.

Obi-Wan gave Anakin a knowing smile before asking him to begin.

“Honestly, I don’t know what I did to deserve you. You’re perfect, you’re… everything. You challenge me, by the Maker, you challenge me,” Anakin said as you chuckled, nodding in agreement. “And you’re strong and good and selfless. You’ve always seen the good in me, sometimes even when I didn’t deserve it. You sought to know me for who I am, not for what I could bring to the galaxy.” Anakin paused, looking into your eyes. He swallowed, long and hard, before going on.

“And I know this wasn’t the relationship you dreamed of. I know I can’t give you much of anything. But I promise that for the rest of our lives I will be right here, by your side. I will love you for as long as this life allows, and for a thousand after that.”

Tears streaked down both your cheeks, making everything else fade away. The weight of his words sat heavily on your heart; his love for you so powerful it was nearly overwhelming. But that seemed to be a theme in your relationship, didn’t it? Everything right on that edge, so close to falling apart. And yet you and Anakin balanced each other. You wouldn’t crumble.

You once again traveled back to when all this started. You remember thinking, perhaps foolishly, that you and Anakin would make it. That one in a million couple. You thanked the entire galaxy that you were right.

You looked at Obi-Wan only to see that he was grinning at the both of you. He’d had his suspicions about you two for months before he eventually caught you kissing after you returned from a long mission. Anakin swore up and down that he “fell on you” and was “tending to your injuries” but Obi-Wan just brushed away the excuses and assured the both of you he would keep your secret.

“You may now… kiss each other. If you so desire,” Obi-Wan said before averting his eyes.

Anakin looked at you, adoration clear in his vision. He held your gaze and gently cupped your cheek. “So… can I kiss you?”

You rolled your eyes, laughed, and leaned in.

friends?

poe dameron/reader

happy birthday to the wonderfully talented, glorious, beautiful @brothersdrxke

thank you for being my enabler, for allowing me to pester u with my every thought, for creating characters and stories that we love so dearly, and most of all for being my friend, this is yours💛

word count: 989 // warnings: i think like 1-2 swears, pINING, leia knows what’s up, they’re idiots your honour

masterlist

“I need you to meet me at mechanic bay 36, tell no one. And bring a tool trolley?”

You almost want to say no. You want to laugh through the comm and tell him that no, actually, you’re not spending your only evening off in god knows how long doing something you can already tell you definitely shouldn’t be. You’re not stealing a mechanic trolley for him either. Except that you’ve already hummed your agreement into the little microphone and pulled your jacket on. Fuck.

Snagging a tool trolley is easy enough, a dozen sit unclaimed along the wall of the hangar, and you’re so close to making it to the mech bays unnoticed before a voice calls out.

“I don’t suppose you know where my commander is do you?” Leia’s tone is unhurried, like she already knows exactly where he is. She probably does.

“Haven’t, uh- I haven’t heard from him, but I’ll keep an ear out, General.” You exhale heavily, trying your best to seem just as cool and collected as she is. You’re half convinced you’ve gotten away with it when she starts to turn away, only to cringe a little when she calls back to you over her shoulder.

“Just make sure you get that trolley back when you’re finished not doing whatever it is you and Poe are up to.”

You’re not quite sure what to expect when you round the corner to bay thirty six, dragging the trolley behind you, but it’s definitely not a half-gutted BB unit with an odd paint job up on the bench while Poe swears at a soldering iron.

“I thought you were going for parts?” You startle him into burning himself again, but the smile that lights up his face makes you wonder if he even notices.

“And just leave him in a junkyard? You know me better than that.” Poe squeezes your shoulder as you switch places so he can dig through the trolley. You take his spot by the soldering iron, while he’s pretty decent at general mechanics, wiring has never really been his forte. There’s chips and scratches in every circuit board that he’s pulled out of the droid and, although you don’t want to admit it, you’re not sure exactly how much you can do to get the little guy up and running. Or rolling, for that matter.

Even so, the hopeful look Poe shoots you over the domed head of his new friend melts any kind of rebuttal you might have been planning. He’s always been able to do that to you.

“The battery’s charged though, I don’t know why he’s not waking up.” Poe sighs, leaning forward against the worktop. You’ve spent all night meticulously rewiring and cleaning and replacing parts of the BB unit, your fingertips are numb from soldering burns, but the droid still sits motionless on the table. Blank eye staring out straight ahead.

“We could hook him up to 3-PO, give him a little jump.” You suggest, although the idea of dealing with C3-PO at this time in the morning isn’t the most appealing. The withering look you get from across the worktop confirms as much. Instead, you hop up onto the table and turn the droid to face you. Poe leans forward a little more, his temple resting on your right shoulder, and you silently watch the unit for a few minutes.

Nothing.

“He probably just needs some time. The software upload worked, so he’s functional at least.” Your last few words are lost in a yawn, but Poe gets the message. It’s late. You’re both exhausted. And he’d deprived you of your first evening off for months with some vague excuse to hang out with you. Because he’s too fucking nervous to say anything. Idiot.

A quiet little beep breaks him out of his reverie, the droid’s internal mechanics whirring softly, and you look at him like you can’t quite believe it as he lifts his head from your shoulder. It’s working.

The droid’s head moves slowly, sluggishly, as the programming starts to kick in, and he almost rolls right off the table. You both shoot your hands out to steady it, breathless laughter catching in your throat when you realise just how close Poe’s face is to yours.

“Hi there.” You introduce yourself and Poe when the BB unit focuses its eye on you, it’s movements are a little jerky, a little unrefined. But it suits him.

You- It takes him a moment to find his voice, You are friends?

There’s an odd hesitancy about the way the beeps sound, unlike other droids you’ve fixed up in the past. This one seems almost childlike, physically and verbally, but it’s endearing. You find yourself leaning a little further into Poe and wondering what exactly his new friend went through to get here.

“Yeah, we’re friends. You know, if you wanted to, I could use a little help with my ship.” Poe says with a smile, in much the same way he might if he were trying to get a kid excited about something boring.

I know about ships! He’s excited, beeping out a cheerful sort of chirp that makes you laugh, I know about all kinds of ships! I can help!

He tells you his name is BB-8, like he’s sharing a secret, and a warmth spreads through your chest as you suppress another yawn. Something tells you this particular droid might be trouble, but you can’t claim you’re not used to that. Poe tugs you off of the workbench with a look, his Commander Dameron look, and you know he’s right. You really should get some sleep. So you bid BB-8 goodnight with a promise to visit in the morning, and press a kiss to Poe’s cheek before you can think too much about it. They watch you leave, dragging the tool trolley dutifully behind you.

It’s not dark anymore.

“No, buddy, it’s not.”

Baby Blue Eyes

Prompt: Reader has a crush on Luke.. pretty much shit goes down! (in a good way ofc)

Warnings: total fluff, some angst, major feels of loooove

Word Count: 1,558

a/n: sooo I have a strong love for Luke and Poe.. so have fun reading all my fics for them lol

༻✧༺

You’ll always remember the day you looked into those baby blue eyes of his, and at the time you didn’t know who this man was; the man you were just so infatuated with. As he took off his helmet and swung around his blonde locks, your friend Delilah nudged you.

“Have a thing for Luke?” she asked, stiffling in a laugh. She watched your eyes dilate as you stared at the man in complete awe.

You paused, looking back at her. “Luke? As in Skywalker? The boy who saved Princess Leia?” you asked, your eyes fluttering back to Luke. You watched him smile and hug Leia and their friend, Han Solo.

“Yeah, that Luke Skywalker.” Delilah nodded as she smiled. “You think he’s cute?” she asked, following your gaze that lead directly to him.

“I think so, yeah.” you concluded as Delilah swung her arm over your shoulder and walked you away. You watched Luke as long as you could. Man oh man was that boy attractive.

༻✧༺

Days, weeks, and months went by as your couldn’t help but watch Luke from afar, your gaze always leading right to him. Being a human calucator in the command office wasn’t as great as it was before you saw Luke. All you wanted to do was be with him, but you were always so far from him.

That was, until the base was moved to the icy cold planet of Hoth. Instead of being a human machine, you were given the job of checking around to see if people were sick, passing out blankets, and finding frozen parts for mechanics to fix up.

As you were walking around one day, you ran into the one and only Princess Leia, her jaw chattering. “Oh, i’m so sorry, Princess- oh my, you’re freezing! Here, take this, it’ll warm you up.”

Leia took the blanket from you as you helped her wrap it around her petite body, almost as small as yours. You two seemed to be around the same height. “T-Thank you. Please, call me Leia. You know, I’ve seen you around before. Y/n, is it?” Leia asked, smiling.

“Yes, it is!” you replied, now smiling as well. Leia actually knew of your existence.

“Would you like to talk for a bit? I’m honestly just so stressed out, I really would like to have a normal conversation for once.” Leia asked, but her question sounded more like a plead.

“I’d love too, anything to get me off my feet for a while.” you agreed as Leia took you to the famous Millennium Falcon.

The two of you sat on a small bench, talking about anything and everything. Somehow, once Leia brought up Luke’s name, she watched as a faint, light pink dusted your cheeks. “You have a crush on him!” Leia giggled as you shushed her.

“Please, don’t say anything!” you cried out, feeling very embarrassed.

Leia winked, still giggling. “Don’t you worry, I won’t say a word. Since we’re on the subject of men, though...”

༻✧༺

A whole hour went by of Leia laying her head on your lap, expressing her feelings for Han. Her worries, anger, fear, love, and even at one point, lust. You just softly petted her hair in comfort. “You should talk to him, Leia.” you said as she turned her body onto her back, staring up at you. “You never know what could happen.”

“I could be saying the same for you.” Leia laughed as the both of you blushed a light pink.

“Well, what’s goin’ on here, ladies?” a echoing and slightly cocky voice called out. Leia and you looked to the entry of the Falcon to see Han, Threepio, Chewie, and Luke standing there.

“Ever heard of girl time?” Leia replied snarkily, rolling her body so her head was still on your lap, but now facing away from you to see the boys. “It’s quite a nice thing for a girl who’s around nothing but stuck up men like yourself all day.”

Han pressed his lips together, shaking his head and chuckling. “Oh, your majesty, I am so sorry we bother you! Maybe you could grow a tougher layer and it wouldn’t be so troublesome.” Han replied as Leia sat up quickly.

“Why you bantha-looking, son of a-”

You quickly covered Leia’s mouth so she couldn’t finish. She looked to you as you raised an eyebrow. Leia looked down as you slowly took your hand off. “Try to be nice?” you mumbled for only her to hear as she slightly nodded.

“I don’t think we’ve met.” Han said, walking over to you. “Han Solo.”

You nodded. “Y/n L/n.” You shook his hand as Threepio walked over.

“Well hello Miss L/n! My name is C3-PO, human cyborg relations!” he said, very enthusiatically.

“Hello Threepio, it’s very wonderful to meet you!” you replied. You always liked the company of droids.

Then, your heart swirrled as Luke walked over. “Hi. I’m Luke.” he said quite nervously.

“Y/n.” you replied, although you knew that he knew your name by now.

“So, how’d you and the Princess here meet?” Han asked as he sat down across from Leia and youself. Luke took a seat diagonally from you as Threepio stood in the same place. Chewie took the spot by a chess board.

You shrugged. “Ran into her a few hours ago. Girl doesn’t know when to wear a jacket so I gave her a blanket. We got to talking and.. yeah, leading up to here.” Han nodded as Leia smiled.

“She’s a fantastic listener.” Leia complimented as you smiled in thanks.

Han then looked to you, seeing your eyes were looking anywhere but to Luke. Han looked back to Leia who winked. Smirking, Han stood up. “Leia, can you help me outside the ship? Need a small figure to climb. Threepio, Chewie, can you come too?” Han asked as you looked to him with wide eyes. He had figured it out just by looking at you! Luke had to know by now.

“Of course! I’ll be back, Y/n. Luke? Keep her company.” Leia said as she smiled to you. You started cursing her out in your head, but didn’t dare to say it out loud.

As everyone left, you crossed your hands in your lap and stared down at it, not even daring to look up. It was quiet, slightly awkward, but it was better than being alone.

Then, Luke broke the silence. “How long have you been with the Alliance?” he asked as you looked up. You looked into those baby blue eyes of his and looked away quickly, looking anywhere else.

“About three years now.” you said as he nodded. He opened his mouth, but you answered his question. “I lived on Chandrila all my life. But my friend Delilah brought me here with her after finding out about this place. I couldn’t let her go by herself, I was too protective to do that. But I love it here, maybe more so than Chandrila.”

Luke nodded. “You wouldn’t go back if you had the chance?”

You shook your head. “This is my home now, I couldn’t see myself anywhere else.”

“I’ve seen you before.” Luke said suddenly. You looked to him, confused. “Usually,” he went on to explain. “Jedi can read thoughts.” your heart sunk at those words. “I’m not good at it at all, but I didn’t have to read yours. I could.. hear them. It was like you were speaking, but you weren’t. At first I was confused as to who was speaking. Then, I saw you looking at me out of the corner of my eye.” Your face turned very red, redder than it had been.

“O-Oh..” was all you could manage to get out, you cursed in your mind.

Luke shook his head. “But I’m not complaining!” He said quickly. You heard his feet shuffling and felt him sitting in the spot Leia had previously been seated in. “You’re.. pretty. And from what I’ve seen around here, super nice. You help peopel to to the medical bay if they’re sick, you give out blankets, you even let Leia vent to you when you barely know her.” Luke said.

“Wait, how did you-”

“Han and I were right outside the ship. He heard it all.” Luke laughed.

You covered your mouth as you laughed with him, his laughter was contagious. “Leia is going to die when she finds that one out! Oh my, she’s going to murder me for letting her speak so loudly!”

Luke then stopped laughing, but your small giggles went on. “Your laugh is beautiful.” Luke said, and you could feel your heart stop right where it was. You looked to Luke as his face was mere inches from yours. You had no choice but to look into those baby blue eyes.

“Your eyes are lovely.” you muttered under your breath. You knew Luke heard you, but he didn’t reply. Well, he replied, but with his lips pressing into yours.

You had been waiting for this moment for so long and Gods was it worth it. His pink, plump lips moving in sync with your own. Slowly, he leaned his head away, both of you blushing. “I know this is sudden, but do you want to go on a date with me?” Luke asked softly.

“I would love too, Luke.”

A Deal’s A Deal

Title: A Deal’s A Deal

Prompt: Decorations

Word Count: 472

Rating: K

AN: Day Two of @thefanficfaerie‘s Christmas OTP Challenge

"Do we really need another set of those silver Christmas ornaments" Tony asked while picking up the box that you'd just placed in the shopping cart.

"Considering that you decided to buy a twelve foot tree this year and I've only enough ornaments for a six foot tree which is what we normally get, yes, yes we really do need another box"

Tony nodded and set the box back into the cart that was already filled with various ornaments and small decorations that would be strewn around the house. He paced up and down two more aisles each dedicated solely to tree ornaments before bringing two boxes back to you.

"What about these?"

"The green ones I'm fine with buying but we're not getting Iron Man ornaments Tony"

"Please!"

"Not a chance. Just because you're Iron Man does not mean that you need to own every single piece of Iron Man merchandise in existence, Christmas ornaments included. If you want an Iron Man themed tree then you can get one for the lab but not the main tree in the living room."

Tony pouted and reluctantly put the ornaments back where he had found them,

It really seemed that it was the Christmas season as walked up and down rows of decorations. It was a never-ending Christmas wonderland although some decorations surely could have been left behind. Granted there was always someone willing to by something, even if it wasn't quite to your own tastes. Tony grabbed a strand of snowflakes justifying them as being needed for above the fireplace.

"That reminds me, we need new stockings our old ones are getting rundown. I'm going to keep looking for a few things if you want to pick new ones out."

Tony nodded, making his way to the wall of stockings. He was tempted at first to grab an Iron Man stocking for himself but he decided against it, there wasn't one that he could think would match and he did want your stockings to match. Instead he grabbed an R2-D2 and C3-PO stockings, figuring that Star Wars was a safe bet, plus he liked both droids so it didn't matter which you picked.

When he found you with the cart it was near overflowing and you were staring up at a display of a metal reindeer.

"We need it Tony"

"We don't need it at all"

"You say that now but what happens when we come home without it and the yard is bare, or even the living room"

"I'd say, glad we didn't get the reindeer. Why do even need it?"

"Because it's cool and I want it"

"Not a good enough reason"

"How about, if we get this then you get the Iron Man ornaments"

"Promise?"

"Yes Tony. Promise."

"Deal. Now what are we naming the reindeer"

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - Review (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

So it’s been a little over a week since I went to watch The Rise of Skywalker in IMAX 3D (which was amazing!!)

I’m off to watch it again tomorrow (3D but without the IMAX this time), so I’d thought I’d post a review of what I loved and what I didn’t so much hate as just generally dislike...

WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR STAR WARS THE RISE OF SKYWALKER. DO NOT READ IF YOU DON’T WANT SPOILERS!

What I loved

- Jedistormpilot

Aka the wholesome trio that is Rey, Finn and Poe. I loved the banter between them, going off on an adventure together, the hug when the battle had been won and they’d been reunited

-The amount screentime Poe got

Not going to lie (and anyone who knows me on here will know this), Poe Dameron is pretty much one of my favourite things about the sequel trilogy. He got quite a lot of screentime in this film and Oscar was 1000% the right casting choice for him. Like he completely and utterly owns this role.

-General Poe Dameron

One of my biggest wishes for Episode 9 was Poe rising to the rank of General (after all Leia has been pretty much doing her utmost best to lead him down this path), and I got this wish. So happy Poe fan-girl here.

- Armitage Hux: Resistance Spy

An unexpected (and hilarious) moment of The Rise of skywalker is General Hux confessing to being the resistance spy amongst the first order ranks. Like he hates Kylo so much he doesn’t give a toss if the Resistance wins.

-Reylo kiss

I’d been a long time for this moment like many other Reylo shippers, and when it finally happened it was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l. Like beautiful with a capital b, and so heartfelt and it’s adorable how Ben smiles at Rey after.

-The Easter Eggs/Nods to the rest of the saga

Another thing I loved was hidden references/nods to the rest of the saga. Like the fact, the festival on the desert planet Rey, Finn, Poe, BB-8, Chewbacca and C3-PO visits takes place every 42 years. A clever yet subtle nod to the fact the first Star Wars film came out 42 years ago. Also, Chewbacca getting his bravery medal after missing out on one at the end of A New Hope.

-D-O

D-O the adorable little droid introduced in this film. Such a cute and funny one-wheeled droid.

What I disliked

-Rey Palpatine/Rey’s family backstory.

First of all. What the heck? Isn’t Rey supposed to be a nobody? Whose parents left her in the care of Unnkar Plutt. The fact Sheev Palpatine aka the Emperor aka the big bad of the Skywalker Saga had a son in the first place is weird enough. Like if I had to have given Rey a famous lineage I’d have made her a Kenobi. After all Skywalkers and Kenobi’s have fought side by side since before Anakin became Darth Vader.

-Poe Dameron - Spice Smuggler

Really. Did they really have to give Poe this shady/morally iffy past? Like it totally disregards when he flew for the New Republic before Leia ultimately recruited him and he joined The Resistance. This pointless plotline makes sense and they invented it purely to introduce Zorri Bliss...

-Death/Redemption of Ben Solo

WHY

JUST

WHY.

One of the big things I didn’t want to happen was for Kylo to be redeemed (thus becoming Ben Solo again) only to be killed off again (having saved Rey’s life). This is an almost identical copy to The Return of The Jedi when Vader and Luke teamed up to bring down the Emperor, only for Vader to later die in Luke’s arms.

LAZY SCRIPT WRITING FOR THE SAKE OF EMOTIONAL DRAMA.

-The ending

After 42 years this is how Star Wars ends. With Rey as a Skywalker on Tatooine burying Luke and Anakin’s lightsabers (aka the legacy lightsaber) in the sand on her own again. Don’t get me wrong Luke and Leia’s force ghosts and the binary sunset are a beautiful touch and the orange/yellow lightsaber is super cool but she should have Ben by her side but he’s not. He’s not even there as a force ghost alongside his mother and uncle. Like there has to be an alternative ending we were robbed off in the edition room.

So that’s how I feel about The Rise of Skywalker. Whether a second viewing will change my views, we’ll see. I mean on the whole, I love it but it could HAVE been better. So Lucasfilm if you want help with the next Star Wars trilogy feel free to get in touch.

#27 Orlando (Day 1)

For the first time in Blog history, it’s both J-Dawg, and the M-inator writing the same blog!!! We thought if only one person wrote it, it would drive them mental and it the end product, would be very similar to Auschwitz!!!

The alarm was set for 5:50, thus we woke at the crack at of dawn. We got ready and ate breakfast and were ready to go at 6:15am as agreed the previous night. Of course at this time, nobody else was ready. Fun fact, they tease Morgs for eating chocolate all the time, yet they gave Max a large chocolate muffin for breakfast. So off we set at 6:25am to be there at 6:30am to beat some of the crowds. Last night we told them that when we looked it up, it said we needed to be there no later than 90 minutes before the park opens at 7am. Of course there was no way we were gonna be able to get MMM to Hollywood Studios at 5:30am, so we told them that that is what the site said, but let’s try aim for 6:30 instead. They agreed and said it wouldn’t be that busy. Come 6:38am when we get dropped off, its is absolutely packed. Cue shocked faces from the hitler crew.

We rushed into the park, getting our bags checked and Disney cards loaded with our ID’s to get into the park. We then hastily made our way to the entrance of the new Galaxy’s Edge Star Wars World, along with the other 7000 people. We figured out you could join a virtual queue that places you in a group for one of the busier rides, Rise of the Resistance. The queue opened at 7am, so everyone was ready to pounce on their phones at 6:59. J was in charge of doing this and he secured us with group 18, it then said it would notify us when to go board the rides queue. (There were over 130 groups, so this was a score, yay me!).

First ride we did was called The Hollywood Tower, and was eerily similar to Gold Coasts ‘Tower of Terror’, we were unsure what the ride had in store, but before joining the queue, the spooky look of the tower had Max almost in tears, after a tantrum. Also someone kept farting horribly in the line, disgusting. The ride was quite fun and bit creepy, with lots of jumps and falls, but with only a single seatbelt keeping us in our chair, we questioned the safety behind this ride. 6/10.

Ride number 2 was our first Star Wars ride. It was called ‘Star Tours’ and was a 4D ride. It was pretty cool and was based on the most recent Star Wars movie. We were lead on a wild goose choose, by C3-PO and he was actually there with us in person 😉. 6/10.

We got our notification for Rise of the Resistance, and head straight on over for our third ride of the day. We asked how long the queue was, but they refused to give an answer every time, Michelle did not like this at all and whined a lot. The Star Wars world itself was really care and you could tell Disney went all out, and we were thinking the queue would be really cool with lots of Star Wars references in it. For the first 20 minutes it was quite disappointing, with some more feral farts, but then suddenly we were captured by the First Order and it was really funny, because the employees were pretending to be mean and yelling at everyone and insulting everyone, eg. Someone was leaning on the wall in the line and one of the First Order Captains came over and stared at him 10cm away from his face and said “Do you own this wall?” the guy replied laughing, “No...”, the captain replied quickly, “Then why are you touching it?”. It was very funny and everyone couldn't stop laughing. Then the ride actually begun and it was so much fun, it was kind of like transformers, but without the the 3D glasses, the effects were phenomenal and there were no obvious tracks of where we were going. The ride was us escaping a Star Destroyer and away from Kylo Ren. 9/10.

Next was the ‘Rock’n’Roll’ coaster, but before, Morgs and I decided to get a cookie because we were a bit peckish (it’s now 10:30am). As we got to the front of the line and ordered our two cookies, Max suddenly appears, “I want a cookie too”. Too late bucko! Ride was fun, same as the Paris one. 7.5/10.

By this stage Michelle was getting cranky because she hadn't had her coffee yet, so she went and lined up at Starbucks, and sent us two with Max to get a hotdog. The funny thing is, the hot dog stand was where we bought the cookies, right next to the rollercoaster, that we just left. Fuckwit. I took Max and Morgs had a look in Pandora, and bought herself a new ring.

Next was a show!! Beauty and the Beast live! This was fantastically hilarious because of how shocking it was. The only 3 people who had mics could not sing, it was so bizarre. And again! The farts were here again! Is there a pattern forming? Morgs says 0/10. Jasper says 10/10.

Then we went to another show. The Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular. This was a bit of a yawn and a boy show, surrounded by noisy, crying children. Before the show even started, we could taste yet another fart! If you haven’t caught on, Max has been letting them rip all day. He is without a doubt, the most disgusting creature to ever plague this earth. The show had volunteers from the audience and one was a plant and he started doing stunts and Morgs was shocked, until she figured it out. 3/10. Would have been 1/10 if not for the plant.

Next was lunch! We had booked an Italian restaurant and headed there right after Indiana Jones. The food was pretty good, but I think the highlight was a text that Michelle got, and showed us, when Max went to the toilet by himself. The message read as follows: “Mum are you there? Can I do a number 2, the bathroom is very clean. Respond fast”

Now in the rain we made our way to some shops and did some browsing, then went to Toy Story Land. Max cracked the shits because we didn't wait 35 minutes to go on the kids roller coaster.

Next on the cards was the other new Star Wars ride, The Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. Again we had no idea what we were going into, but it was a 55 minute wait, so it must have been good. Max of course hated this idea and threw yet another tantrum, but luckily no more farts. The ride ended up being an interactive almost video game like ride, but still like a 4D ride. It was something else. So much fun, Max and Michelle were piloting, Morgs and I were shooting, and two randoms were the engineers. 9/10.

By this stage we were all shutting down (4pm now), did some more shopping and then Mikko came and collected us and took us home for a rest before dinner at Disney Springs.

Dinner was at a Mexican restaurant which had fantastic guacamole that reminded us of Zambreros ❤️. We played uno and then did a recon at the big shops there for when we purchase on Saturday. 15 minutes into looking at shops, Max cracked it because Mum wasn't letting him buy a $300 replica lightsaber. Since Max cracked...so did Mikko and he decided it was time to leave because he was ready to go now. We took our time in that store, and then Michelle informed them we were still going to Kate Spade, cue angry Fins.

Now back at home on our new couch bed living the high life. Should be better nights sleep on this than the single-double bed.

God bless, and Godspeed.

The Rise of Skywalker messy review with spoilers:

As an ardent Star Wars fan, and as someone who enjoyed and still overall likes The Last Jedi (and the prequels for that matter), I really enjoyed The Rise of Skywalker. There were only two things I really didn’t like about it, and in principal I hate them, but in terms of my movie-watching experience and the narrative itself, they were so brief and had no bearing on the plot whatsoever, so for me they were utterly ignorable. Those things were:

Poe flirting with Zorii (not just because I read him as gay but also because Oscar Isaac so wanted him to be), which I am going to ignore but also choose to read as them being friends and he jokingly flirts with her sometimes. I have also created a backstory for them in which they are both gay but because they were together so much people though they were a couple so they started a running gag of “flirting”.

The second thing I hated, which I got spoiled for because I didn’t think I was going to have to block spoilers before the movie was even released, was the Rey and Ben kiss. Hate that. Going to ignore it and pretend it didn’t happen, which is easy because it has no bearing on the plot or relevance to the characters before or after it occurred. If you haven’t seen the film and you’re reading this, the context for this moment is that Leia’s death has prompted Ben to redeem himself, he goes to help Rey defeat Palpatine, she kills Palpatine then dies (or she certainly looks dead, she at least comes very close to being dead), then Ben sacrifices his life force to save her. The kiss occurs right after she wakes up and right before he dies. If you’re wondering, no, there was still, even in this film, absolutely no indication either was attracted to the other. They just kiss there for some reason. I’m going to pretend it didn’t happen, but if I have to acknowledge it I’m going with my film-going companion’s reading of it: “That wasn’t a romantic kiss, it didn’t read that way at all. That was a rush of emotion, victory kiss.”

Everything else about this film I was okay with. Some things I loved. Like Rey giving Ben the lightsaber through their force bond. Excellent moment with excellent buildup.

Were there strings left untied and some plot-holes technically left, or just concepts glossed over, in this film? Yes. Does it bother me? Not at all. Maybe it’s just cause I so easily filled in those blanks myself. I get the point that audiences shouldn’t have to fill in the blanks, but it just didn’t bother me personally in the slightest. For me, if I can fill in the answer left unsaid that easily, it’s not a problem. The only thing I think they should have either addressed or not added was Finn’s “Rey, I never told you” thing. That was pointless to add if they weren’t going to address what he wanted to say.

I’m okay with Palpatine being the villain because it’s a thematic continuation of the overall saga, and, maybe I have an advantage because I’ve engaged quite a bit with the Star Wars Expanded Universe, but powerful Force users possessing living bodies through death is an established concept in Star Wars lore. Expanded Universe, now Legacies, may not be canon anymore, but that doesn’t mean they can’t pull from it and make things canon. Yes, there should have been better buildup in previous films to Palpatine returning and being the main villain who was always pulling the strings, and yes there were things left unexplained, but it just really doesn’t bother me.

Don’t mind Rey being a Palpatine. It’s no more convoluted than anything else Star Wars has done.

I think they did the best with Leia as they could have considering the circumstances. I don’t cry at movies, but I almost did when Chewie broke down after Leia’s death. Love that they referenced her training as a Jedi and showed her lightsaber.

I really liked the bait and switch of Chewie’s “death”. I would point to this as an example of how writers can shock the audience, throw in a twist, and make their characters go through difficult emotions without actually pointlessly killing off a character. Rey thinks she killed Chewie, and has to deal with that, but she didn’t kill him. And this wasn’t drawn out. We discover quickly that Chewie is alive, and Rey does as well not long after. I think that was the best way to do this in a movie.

Liked C3-PO’s sacrifice. And that he eventually got his memories restored.

Lando’s back!

Poe as a spice smuggler I don’t think is his canon comic book established storyline, but I’m not mad about it. Just confused.

The new droid is my favorite droid of all time. I think its name is D-O. It’s so polite, I love it! It’s afraid of being touched cause of abuse, so when Rey tries to touch it, it just rolls away and says “no, thank you” and my heart now belongs to this little guy.

Also, side note that’s kind of a continuation of Last Jedi stuff, I love there being paper books in Star Wars. Maybe it’s just cause of how much I love paper books, but I love the idea of paper books surviving in sci-fi worlds.

I loved Rey’s new lightsaber. The hilt looks like her. And yellow! The other lighsaber colors never get enough attention in the films.

I really like that Rey, with Luke and Leia’s blessing, chose to name herself Skywalker. She chose the legacy she wanted to carry, the family she stood for, to honor the people who taught and supported her. A choice of who and what she wanted to be associated with. What she wanted to continue and rebuild. She made a choice of who she wanted to be and what she wanted to carry on. I love that.

salty ask list: 7, 11, 12, 22, 23 :) for any fandom!

7. Is there anything you used to like but can't stand now?

In WestWorld I used to absolutely love the thought of them moving out from the theme park, but I feel like the show has lost a bit of its spark moving out of it??? Seasons 2 & 3 are cool, and they are still good TV but I feel like Season 1 was the PERFECT series??? Like it's one of the best series in ANY TV show! Again, still a good show, it still holds up but I wish they could go back to WestWorld :( Maybe one day it will!

11. Is there an unpopular character you like that the fandom doesn't? Why?

OK *ahem ahem*

Game of Thrones - Melisandre, I feel as though people REALLY don't give her the benefit of a doubt on how interesting she is! She immediately feels remorse after Season 5 and she didn't even try to fight when she got called out on her actions, for me she really redeemed herself even more in 'The Long Night' in S8! I've always loved Mel, and hearing a bit about her backstory (which I don't think should have been revealed, not going to lie) makes her all the more interesting!

The Handmaid's Tale - Serena! I don't know why, as she is definitely unlikeable but I just love her and I love her scenes, too :)

Star Wars - Finn - Honestly the Star Wars sequel trilogy sucks, well Episodes 8 and 9... But Finn doesn't deserve the most hate out of the cast, they just couldn't be bothered to invest in his character for some reason?? :SSS For me, Poe was the worst of them all and I despised his hatred for C3-PO, get the fuck out of here

12. Is there an unpopular arc you like that the fandom doesn't? Why?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... I really like Claire's story in LOST but I have no idea why :) And although she's an awful human being, I found Meg's entire arc in The Leftovers fascinating. She was a narcissistic lunatic and I'm all for watching those stories play out! Though I don't know enough about the Leftovers fandom! I also quite enjoyed AHS 1984!

22. Popular character you hate?

Not necessarily hate, but the love for Bronn, and the fact he somehow reaches Top 15 characters in polls, videos, rankings genuinely surprises me. Post Blackwater he really is the most forgettable character ever and it leaves me gobsmacked how he survived the show to the very end (sorry spoilers), i'm sorry but... Why??? :SSS

in AHS, I have no idea if it's because my memory is.... Vague on it, but Tate Langdon in Murder House is easily the most overrated character in the entire show and I couldn't have cared less for him

23. Unpopular character you love?

The Handmaid's Tale - Serena Joy Waterford. Also, Aunt Lydia!

Game of Thrones - Cersei Lannister, Melisandre, Sansa Stark (is she unpopular?)

Hmmm I'm struggling to think of others, maybe for OITNB I would say Piper (although TERRIBLE In Season 2&3), Aleida Diaz I can't think if anymore!

Masterlist

If evacuating the base felt like pandemonium, then there were no words to describe what was happening now on Crait. You and the people around you were all that was left of the Resistance, and you didn’t even want to think about counting out that number. The significance and weight of that thought weighed heavily on everyone’s mind as they fought for survival. You couldn’t help but wish for the security and hominess of D’Qar once more, but the thought of the old base only left you with more grievance rather than a sense of security.

You had to physically shake those thoughts from your head as you set do to the task in front of you. You stood, staring at the wiring and main panel to one of the speeders left behind on the deserted base. It was the only option your few pilots had and, despite your lack of expertise when it came to air crafts, Poe still stood behind you - insisting you look at it. Even though you weren’t quite sure what you were looking at…

“You know more about these things than I do…” You murmured, trying to at least find somewhere to plug in your data pad to try and run a diagnostic report. Was this thing so outdated it didn’t have an electronic diagnostic output? You blanched at that thought.

“I’ve never piloted a speeder like this, Y/N. Is there anything you can tell me?” You could tell he was trying desperately to keep his tone cool and neutral, but anyone could tell that even the best pilot in the, what was left, of the Resistance was on edge about the odds. You were frustrated, not at him, but the fact that despite all of your studies and work towards being the best at your many jobs – this one you were utterly failing at. And this was not a time to be failing.

“All I know is that it looks like it uses a… thingy to stabilize it as it moves.”

Poe deadpanned, “A thingy.”

“I told you I don’t know about these hunks of junk, Dameron.”

“It’s called a mono-ski.”

You and Poe both turned around to see Rose, looking at you a bit concerned. So your terminology was a bit off, at least you were able to find the main control panel amongst the rust and panels that were barely hanging on.

“Perfect. Teach him. I’m gonna… go do something else.” You gave a Poe a pat on the shoulder and Rose a smile before b-lining it out of there. You hated not being the best at whatever task was set before you and now was not the time to let that little bug eat away at your thoughts.

As soon as you reached the control room, you didn’t hesitate to start helping Connix with sending out distress signals to allies. Suna and Raena looked at each other, hope in their eyes that their own planets would come to the rescue. You tried to drone out the announcement of the ski-speeders being deployed, as well as the subsequent sound of blaster rounds. You couldn’t ignore the worried tone in Rose’s voice and the fact that the blaster sounds were getting increasingly closer until a loud crash was heard from, where you imagined, the ground forces lay. You couldn’t bear to look out the large windows to see the ski speeders racing towards the ginormous machinery that the Force Order had or the destruction that was already taking place.

There was a commotion that you couldn’t make out because of multitasking and sensory overload, not to mention a level of anxiety that you had never experienced before. Your limits were constantly being tested and driven, and just when you thought you’ve bared all that you could – something else goes terribly wrong. Whatever had happed sounded hopeful, like back-up had arrived, and you held on to that hopefulness as you continued working. Leia would pace, then pause to really listen to what was happening outside, then pace once more.

“We’re taking on a lot of loses.”

All eye turned to the main monitor in the middle of the room then, doubtfulness and worry clouding everyone’s eyes.

“Please don’t do anything heroic.” You whispered to yourself, joining Suna and Raena at the main monitor. Poe’s static voice mentioned something about what they had planned being a suicide mission and you felt your heart drop. It wasn’t unlike your pilot do something stupidly valiant in an effort to save the day. But Finn was the one not listening this time, and you felt absolutely no relief - sure, you had only known and spoken with him briefly. But Finn was important to Poe and that meant something to you. The vulptices shook with unease as the dust began to fall from the ceiling due to the laser cannon slowing melting away the thick metal door keeping the First Order out.

Communication was shut between Rose and Finn’s speeders at nearly the same time, you were unsure what that entirely meant and didn’t have time to think much more of it. The red circle continuously growing on the metal door meant that whatever Finn had intended either didn’t happen or didn’t work. Before you could finish that thought, the door exploded under the magnitude of the laser, shattering the glass windows of the control room. A large gaping hole was left amidst a blazing fire - giving the First Order an easy entry.

Connix and D’Acy gave the worst news that could’ve happened in that moment.

No one, in the entire galaxy, was coming to aid in what was left of the Resistance. You all were alone. No hope. No salvation. Nothing. There were no words to describe what you felt. Of all the emotions that had passed through your systems in past hours, a feeling of nothings flowed through your veins. And you almost felt appreciative, maybe it would make seeing the end easier. Suna and Raena exchanged horrified looks. Their families, from two entirely separate planets – in two different rims of the galaxy, didn’t even send support or respond. You felt for them as they realized the magnitude of their family’s silence and lack of support.

Leia gently sat back on the table behind her in defeat. There was nothing you could do or say to console her, but you felt that the least you could do was place a hand on hers to let her know that - despite this being the end, she wasn’t alone.

“The spark… is out.” she sighed, just as a figure approached from the back of the room. Your nerves stood on edge as you weren’t sure who this person was. If they were friendly or from the First Order, but you didn’t move from beside Leia as they approached. “Luke.” she finally breathed.

Oh. oh. You instantly took few steps back then. That was Luke freaking Skywalker. You knew now was not the time to fangirl, or mention how cool you thought the Force was or the stories that Leia had shared with you, so you just stood there. Probably looking a bit lost and shell-shocked, but you couldn’t look away from their exchange. Leia made a joke about her hair and you moved to stand with C3-PO as they started talking about the General’s son - Kylo.

Their exchange was short and Luke walked by C3-PO and you. The droid acknowledged him, to which Luke gave a wink. You wish you could’ve thought of something more meaningful to say but all you could manage was a weak and nervous:

“Hi.”

He gave a nod and continued his way and you couldn’t help but compare your embarrassment from this exchange to nearly all your exchanges with Poe.

On the embarrassment scale, this was worse. Way worse.

You returned to stand beside Leia, who was now looking out at the bay-like windows. The First Order had approached quickly, but that wasn’t what surprised you. Luke was walking out alone, facing the military force of the First Order. You looked to Leia with apprehension in your eyes but she didn’t look at you, her own eyes were glued to her brother who facing an entire army alone.

A/N: I have an idea for a sequel... which wasn’t what I wasn't intended but given that I have some freedom with how TLJ ended... idk I’m gonna mull over that a bit and actually see how you guys like the final part (which is only two posts away!) before I start really thinking about it lol As always, thanks for reading! ❤️

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13534569/1/Return-of-the-Survivors

Hello, I've added chapter 62 to my story: Return of the Survivors. Below is a small selection. Please click on of the links above to read more.

Chapter 62 - Battle

“Oh, What are we going to do now?” C3-PO complains “This is a disaster, and it’s all your fault.”

“[Groans] C3-PO would you… shut your…hole!” R2-D2 beeps some polite words, telling the protocol droid to silence his vocal processors, and quit fussing. C3-PO, again finds himself thankful to the Maker for installing the profanity blocker in his friend. The way the Astromech beeps sometimes, makes ‘3PO almost wish he didn’t understand Binary. It would have been very unsuitable for the youngling Masters to hear that.

C3-PO still remembers the time he reworked R2's profanity blocker to replace his swear words with happy ones as a prank. 'Oh glitter and rainbows! '3PO, I'm going to Tooka kittens playing deprogram you.' he'd said when he realized what happened. Aah, that was so worth it. It took Master Anakin three hours to reprogram his blocker back. Something about crossing the B-wires, a rookie mistake. Anyways, now the blocker just removes the words from his outbound beeps. It makes him pause from time to time, but ‘3PO fills the gaps with whatever he’d like when translating. It makes it fun.

“Whoever programmed you must have never had an etiquette lesson in their life,” C3-PO chastises.

“You can ... Etiquette. I have more important things to do now. Like prep this T-65 X-wing starfighter for flight and combat, or Master Luke will be…”

“That’s what I’m talking about. We were supposed to find the Masters, inform them how unwise an adventure was, and escort them back home. We were never supposed to be escaping an imperial compound, joining a rebellion, or assisting Master Luke to bomb the same imperial compound. We’re going to be deactivated for sure.”

The Astromech as good as rolled his eyes at him.

“Just be careful, will you? You’ve got to come back,” C3-PO states.

“Have you ever known me to be reckless?” R2-D2 replies.

C3-PO held back the affirmative response that first came up. It was not worth it to get into that argument again. “You wouldn’t want my life to get boring, would you?”

“Your life is already boring.” R2 whistles his reply. “Don’t worry about me, I’ll be back after the mission with another story to tell.”

C3-PO nods and leaves the Astromech to finish his pre-flight procedures. He then goes looking for the Masters. They had all, since arriving on Yavin IV, flown to Alderaan. The enemy battlestation is expected to arrive within the next thirty eight minutes, and everyone is preparing for the fight.

“What happens if you have T-Waves?” Master Anakin quizzed.

"I shut down the engines and wish for good luck," Master Luke answered with a smirk.

"No! See, I knew you weren't prepared for this." Anakin reacts in a perfectly reasonable way.

Luke laughed. “Relax! I shift the thrust engines down and move the S-foils into position four B, then ride the T-Waves out with minimal thrusts. I've got this."

"I know," Anakin whispered. Then he hugged his son.

"Are you ready? Your commanding officer is looking for you," Obi-Wan walks in and asks.

"Yes, Uncle Ben. I'm ready." Luke steps out of the hug and closer to Obi-Wan and the door.

"Wait." Obi-Wan stops Luke and begins to straighten his uniform. "Luke, the Force will be with you."

"Yes, Master," Luke responds. Then after Obi-Wan gives him a playful swipe to his head, he leaves.

"He'll be okay." Obi-Wan says determinedly.

“I know,” Anakin answers grimly.

“Ahsoka said we can watch it all in the control room with the others.”

“Oh good. I would like to analyze the probabilities for the mission in real time,” C3-PO states.

“Come along now.” Obi-Wan puts his hand on Anakin’s back and leads him towards the control room. C3-PO Follows.

Han Solo said it best, "Hokey religions, and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side." There are a lot of unpredictable things that can happen in the galaxy. You can get kidnapped by a dark Sith Lord. You might even end up kissing your brother. Of course, you didn’t know he was your brother at the time, you were just trying to make someone jealous. You know, lets just forget that one.

In a galaxy like this a girl's best friend, besides her loyal droids, is her blaster. So, arm yourself with this Princess Leia Blaster before you get imprisoned by the Empire. You don’t want to be caught by Stormtroopers without one. Because as cool as C3-PO is, he is useless in a firefight. R2-D2 on the other hand can be quite useful with his lock picking skills.

TWO DECADES of Service

http://hosted.verticalresponse.com/672296/250bd40a0e/288055965/ac7221bc2f/

Miracle Moment® When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low, and the debts are high, And you want to smile, but you have to cry, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don’t you quit. —Anonymous

MESSAGE FROM CYNTHIA BRIAN, Founder/Executive Director

WE MADE IT!!!

Twenty years of serving our communities and country through numerous life-changing outreach programs with 100% volunteer positions and no paid staff! What an accomplishment for everyone involved. On September 9th, 2019, Be the Star You Are!® is 20 years old. Yes, it has been a labor of love for me to trudge forward despite our numerous setbacks. There was a time when BTSYA had only 43 cents in the bank and I knew I would have to close the doors within a week because we just didn’t have the funds available to proceed further. Sadness filled my soul.

Then a miracle happened. Actually…THREE miracles in the same day.

#1: I opened the mail from my 18-year-old daughter who had just started her first year of college and was also working to pay her expenses. Out fell a check for $100 with a note that read, “Mom, this to help Be the Star You Are!® continue its great work. I know I’ll always have you, but if you quit, the other kids won’t have you. You CAN’T quit.”

#2. The phone rang and a restaurant offered to give a percentage of their proceeds for a full day to Be the Star You Are!®

#3. A big envelope arrived from the kids at juvenile halls that we had been providing free books and reading circles to for several years. In the envelope were numerous hand-written thank you notes from these incarcerated youth. The hand-crafted cards were colorful and happy with mostly misspelled words and messages saying “thank you, gracias, or love you for caring”. One note read “Not only was this my very first book, but it was the first gift I’ve ever received.” But the note that tugged at our heartstrings the most said the following: “Thank you for saving my life. Without Be the Star You Are!®, I would have committed suicide.”

With those three “coincidences” occurring on my darkest day, I went outside at night to look to the heavens. “If I’m supposed to keep up this mission of empowering women, families, and youth, I need to see a sign. Please send me a shooting star.” Yes, I was praying for a signal. And miracle #4 transpired. A bright star shot across the dark sky going from the far left to the far right so that there was not a chance I would miss it.

It hasn’t been easy leading a non-profit but we are still here and we are always making a difference. I am honored to work with women, families, and teens. Their successes in life give me great joy.

I want to thank every person and business who has crossed paths with our outreach through two decades: volunteers, sponsors, beneficiaries, and donors. Be the Star You Are!® has touched the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals across the globe. We donated over $2 million in resources with a 100% volunteer workforce. Read about our amazing accomplishments at http://www.bethestaryouare.org/positive-results .

Special thanks to Lamorinda Weekly, Mechanics Bank, and Moraga Hardware and Lumber for recent donations and to Justine Christoff for creating our new logos.

BTSYA still struggles to get funding and we hope you will be generous and make a tax-deductible donation to help us celebrate our 20th birthday. You can donate through PAYPAL GIVING FUND with 100% going to BTSYA with NO FEES: https://www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/1504

We are not throwing a party or a gala, even though we wanted to, as we will use every donated penny to help others live and thrive.

No, I never quit. And I hope you will follow your heart and never quit either. In the trilogy of Be the Star You Are!® books, I always include the poem, Don’t Quit. You can support the charity by buying books, at https://www.CynthiaBrian.com/online-store .

But I leave you with the last verse: For Life’s battles don’t always go To the stronger or faster man. But, sooner or later, the man who wins Is the one who thinks he can. —Anonymous

What I’ve discovered is that success rarely comes on the first, second, third or fourth try. Sometimes even the hundredth. Keep trying and don’t give up. Even when you are rejected unnecessarily, consider each rejection as character building. You are a miracle of life, and you can do it. Give yourself a break, but never quit. You are a star! Embrace each “no” and exclaim, “Thank you, I am now that much closer to a yes!”

Together WE CAN!

Thank you for being part of our galaxy. Make sure to visit http://www.BTSYA.org to see our gallery of photos from the past twenty years. In this newsletter, we share a few!

Our new motto is “Communicate, Collaborate, Innovate!” Hope you’ll join us.

_______________________ “I Am Because We Are” by Karen Kitchel

An anthropologist proposed a game to the kids in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told them that whoever got there first won the sweet fruits.

When he gave them the signal to run, they all took each other’s hands and ran together, then sat in a circle enjoying their treats.

When he asked them why they chose to run as a group when they could have had more fruit individually, one child spoke up and said: “UBUNTU, how can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?”

‘UBUNTU’ in the Xhosa culture means: “I am because we are.”

My Wing-Droids

(gif is not mine, credit to owner)

REQUEST: can you do one where the mechanic!reader is just bffs with r2d2 and c3po and idk you take it from there thats all i got lmao -Anonymous

Prompt: when your two favorite droids play matchmaker for you and a flirty pilot

Warnings: cursing

Word Wount: 1,240

a/n: This is such a cute concept! I think you’ll like where I went with this lol

MASTERLIST

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

“Hey, Artoo, hand me that wrench, would ‘ya?” you asked as you pushed yourself further under your X-Wing fighter. You only had small repairs to do so you decided to do it yourself, seeing as you knew your ship well. Over the last few months, R2-D2 and C3-PO seemed to like you a lot after you gave them oil baths; they clung to you and followed you around. Threepio always said it was because you reminded them of Luke Skywalker, which you took as a huge compliment. The droids were nothing but a help to you (besides when Threepio rambled) so you let them stick around. Leia seemed to like the free time of not watching over both droids.

You felt Artoo’s metal arm hand you the wrench as you mumbled a small ‘thank you’ to him. You started to fix the bolt in place as you heard Threepio’s voice. “Master Dameron, how good it is to see you!” Quickly, you pulled yourself out from under your ship. You and Poe were friends, that was all, but you had a small crush on him, especially after he saved your ass from a TIE fighter that wouldn’t get off of you.

Hopping up from your small, flat scooter, you stood up to face Poe. “Hey Poe.” you smiled as he smiled back at you.

“Hey there, darlin’. Whatcha up to?” Poe asked as he leaned on your ship smugly. You just smiled at the nickname he gave you.

“Not much, just fixing up my ship, she went through a lot last battle, I’ve been putting off fixing her.” you replied as you handed your wrench back to Artoo who took it from you happily.

Threepio walked over and stood next to Poe and you. “What did you call Master L/n? Darling? Is that a name of affection?” Threepio inquired as you blushed intensely, Poe just chuckling.

“Uhm, n-no, Threepio, it’s a nickname. Like how your name is C3-PO and we call you Threepio.” you replied. “Or R2-D2, Artoo.”

Slightly bowing his head, Threepio seemed to understand. “Yes, yes, I see. But I do think that certain name is of affection. Master Solo used to call Miss Organa that.” Threepio said. This caused you to blush again and Poe to smirk at your reaction.

“Well, I’ll leave you to fixing her up, then. I’ll see you in the mess hall later, Y/n.” Poe said as he winked to you, walking away and up to Snap.

You quickly looked to Threepio. “Threepio, you can’t say that!” you scolded in a soft tone, trying not to insult the droid as everyone else did.

“Why not?” Threepio asked.

Sighing, you sat down on the small scooter. “I like him Threepio, er, I have feelings of affection for him. But he can’t know that!” you said quickly. Atroo beeped questiongly as you cocked your head. “What do you mean ‘Why not tell him’? I can’t do that, I’ll make a fool of myself, he doesn’t like me like that.” you answered the tin droid.

“I think you should tell him how you feel, Master L/n.” Threepio said. “I think he, in your phrases, likes you back.”

“Maybe, but I’m too nervous, I can’t do it by myself. Maybe I’ll get Snap to tell him, maybe Kaydel could do it for me.” you mumbled as you lowered yourself back under your ship. “Screwdriver please, Artoo.”

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

Threepio looked to his friend below him. “Artoo, I think we should give Master L/n a hand with her affection problems. If she is too nervous, we should tell Master Dameron for her!” Threepio announced. Artoo let out a string of beeps as Threepio slapped his tin head. “Don’t call me that, you lousy thing! I think it is the right thing to do. And look, there’s Master Dameron now!” Artoo let out a small series of disagreeing beeps, but went on with Threepio.

Poe was talking to Lu’lo as Threepio and Artoo came closer. “Master Dameron. Master Dameron. Master Dameron.” Threepio went on to get his attention.

“And- What, Threepio? What’s so important?” Poe asked, annoyed that he was interupted.

“It’s about Master L/n.” Threepio said simply. Lu’lo got the hint and walked away from their conversation, leaving Poe to the droids.

“What’s so important?” Poe said as calmly as he could. Artoo let out a series of beeps. “Whaddya mean she likes me?” Poe cocked his head slightly to the side.

Threepio took over, interupting Artoo. “Oh, Master L/n told us all about her affectionate feelings for you. She said she.. liked you, yes that was it. But she said she was nervous to tell you, saying she’d get someone else to tell you. Being good friends, Artoo and I decided to tell you ourselves!”

Poe held in a laugh. “Does Y/n know you’re doing this?”

“No, sir. It was going to be a surpise!” Threepio said in an excited voice as Poe finally let out a laugh. “She’s outside taking her morning stroll.” Threepio said as Poe nodded.

“I’ll go talk to her, thank you both.” Poe said as he went to go find you.

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

You walked around humming a soft song from your home planet as you heard leaves crunching behind you. You grabbed your blaster and held it out as someone grabbed you from behind. Squirming in their arms, they took your blaster as you turned around to see Poe laughing. “Poe Dameron! Don’t you scare me like that!” you slightly hit his shoulder as he kept laughing.

“Sorry darling, didn’t think you’d freak out like that.” he handed you back your blaster as he sat down on a rock, motioning for you to join him. You took a seat on the rock next to him.

“D’ya need anything? I didn’t know people knew about my morning walks.” you said as Poe smiled.

“Well, kind of. You see, Threepio and Artoo told me something quite interesting this morning.” Poe chuckled as he put a hand on the back of his neck.

Your heart began to race. They didn’t, did they? “O-Oh really?” you asked, voice slightly shaking.

“Yeah, they told me, well, Threepio said you had ‘affectionate feelings’ for me.” Poe smirked as he watched your face turn a bright red. “Is that true?”

Stumbling over what to say, Poe put a hand on yours. You looked up at him and just nodded. “I cannot believe those droids are being my wing-men right now.” you muttered as the two of you laughed.

“It’s a good thing I like you back, then.” Poe said, putting a hand on your waist. You put your hands on his chest as he pulled you closer to him. He began leaning in when a familiar, robotic voice called out.

“Oh there they are, Artoo! I found them! Master Dameron, Master L/n, the General needs a word with you. Am I interupting anything?” Threepio asked as Artoo rolled over.

Poe huffed as he whispered into your ear. “Second time today.” You giggled as he spoke louder for them to hear. “No, you’re fine. She really need us now?” Artoo beeped as the two of you stood up. “Lead the way.” Poe sighed as you ll began walking back. To make up for the missed kiss, you intertwined your hand with Poe’s, making him smile brightly at you.

You never thought your life would come to two droids playing matchmaker for you.
