14 Days of Scoundress 2024 ♥ February 14th
Foundation
Leia couldn’t have said when it had started; what look, or words, or gesture had commenced the shift in her heart—likely, it wasn’t any one thing or moment, but the compound of them all over time. Only that, right then and there, she knew. Or, at least, accepted it for a fact.
It had been much easier to ignore when they were fighting for their lives, when she was running a rebellion and he was pretending not to care. In the slow-passing days of their interlude towards Bespin, with few things and fewer beings to pass the time with, their deliberately sharpened edges smoothed against each other to a softness they were still learning what to do with. How much of it was allowed when everything was uncertain, and softness could bruise. Everything stood in sharp contrast—the way Han looked at her, held her, the actions that spoke louder than words. Those had been a constant for some time now, even when he believed it was hopeless and she thought it misguided.
And she—she observed herself as well, and in doing so, discovered that she wanted to make him feel as safe and comfortable as he did her. That she looked forward to sipping caf with him in the mornings and quipping about anything and everything in the evenings. That she revelled in the way he reacted to her touch, in the laughter she could draw out of him.That she wished for the chance to figure out whether there was permanency in it. Them.
She’d been dumped in the middle of a feeling she didn’t dare name yet but, for the first time, in that moment, Leia didn’t feel scared or worried. She felt strangely at peace with it.
Han straightened up, holding up the pair of new insoles for her boots that he’d fashioned out of gods knew what ancient scrap he’d found laying around the Falcon, after she’d mentioned that her feet had stopped aching since she’d started walking in socks most of the time.
‘There you go, sweetheart, you should try ‘em on.’
He held out his offering, and Leia put her hands over his, looking at his handiwork. She hadn’t even told him that her old insoles were falling apart. He’d figured it out, dug her boots out of the closet she’d shoved them in, and set to work.
Han bent over his work table again, picking up his tools and dusting off leather shavings. When he straightened up, she wrapped a hand around his neck and pulled him down for a long kiss, hoping he could figure this out, too, what she couldn’t tell him with words.
‘Thank you,’ she whispered against his lips, the insoles clutched against her heart. ‘I like them a lot.’
*******
Prompts:
59: out of love
3: “I liked that. A lot.”
37: [surprise] a sudden kiss to catch the partner off guard

Luke when you wear shoes that make you taller than him
this has lived rent-free in my head for so long, so here's a lil Christmas Eve gift for you all. hope everyone is having good holidays! more content coming soon!
ANH Luke is gawking and immediately ready to be your personal assistant for the day. He tries to play it cool for a minute until you turn your attention on him. Then it's lots of "ma'am/sir/yes, right away," whatever you prefer. Just thinking about you in heels and towering over him has always turned him on a bit more than he'd like to admit, but actually seeing it in real time - he's a complete goner and isn't ashamed to admit it. Although, he will still attempt to defend himself when Han starts teasing him.
ESB Luke is a bit intimidated at first. He also thinks he's doing a good job playing it cool, but he's very fidgety, bright red, and struggling to find words when you speak to him. This era of Luke is much more assertive and his newfound commanding officer role still has him on a bit of a high, so the height difference at first throws him off. He also wants you to see him as a protector and isn't sure how you can when you're the one looking down at him. But once you do make eye contract, he's retracting all his earlier mental statements and can't help how much it turns him on. His admiration isn't as puppy-like as it would've been in ANH era, but he's definitely still hanging on every word you say and ready to agree to them all. He does a little better at hiding it, but those who are around him for extended periods can tell he'd run head-first into his x-wing if you asked.
ROTJ Luke is the most composed - at least, after the initial surprise of having to look up to meet your eyes fades. You see his eyes widen slightly before he clears his throat and regains his composure, minus the very obvious red tinting his cheeks. This older, more mature Luke won't immediately jump the gun into people-pleaser mode, but he also has no issues with any assumptions that might be made based on height. In fact, he has some very un-Jedi-like thoughts running through his head about you keeping those heels right where they are. Although it isn't as obvious to you or those outside his inner circle, to Han, Leia, Chewie, the droids, and even Lando and Wedge, he's obviously even more smitten than he was before. Han is definitely ribbing him out of earshot about how he keeps staring at you with doe eyes whenever you turn around or aren't paying attention before quickly looking away the second you adjust your gaze.

Oh no, I’m participating in Star Wars discourse.
Uh, so there’s a post floating around that I’m not reblogging mainly because it’s just this person’s headcanon and, whatever, people can have headcanons, but the main points they make in the midst of talking about their headcanon that I’ll be addressing are:
Leia and Han getting married and having kids is the most boring thing you can do with Leia
Leia should be a Jedi like every other dang Skywalker because somehow continuing an assumed dynasty isn’t the most boring choice you can make for her
Leia is more cut out to handle lack of attachment than Luke which we know because of her lack of response to Alderaan being destroyed
Leia and Han shouldn’t get married or even be around each other much because Han is a wandering soul and needs to travel and go places
Leia never expresses a desire for marriage or children in the OT, so removing these things won’t contradict George Lucas’ canon
And, look, these are just…missing the point of the character growth that occurs in these two during the OT.
(there's just a whole-ass essay below the cut if anyone cares to read about the many thoughts I have on Leia Organa and Han Solo.)
So, I'm not saying existing or past canon/EU has done it right, but I disagree with the statement that having them marry and live kind of basic lives is the most boring choice. If that's all there was to it, sure, but those two choices by themselves show a monumental amount of character growth for both Leia and Han. (I mean, frankly, I think "Skywalker = Jedi every time no matter what" is a pretty boring choice storytelling wise, but I also think the Jedi on the whole are incredibly boring characters, so, uh...I'm biased.)
Leia was never going to live a quiet life even if Alderaan hadn't been destroyed. Like, she did not have that option, period. She would have either remained in politics or taken over as queen, may or may not have had to marry for political reasons, and may or may not have been involved with the Rebellion. Her life was chaos starting as a teen and she had no reason to believe she wouldn't die living a hectic and chaotic life.
And then she loses everything. This isn't emphasized in the movies obviously because they are fun family romps and not gritty dramas, but, good night, in a single second, she loses every family member, nearly every person she knows, every place she finds most familiar and comfortable, everything and to top it all off, the guilt that it's happened because of her unwillingness to give up the Alliance will probably always be there. She was tortured, they lost lives in battle, and, yeah, they destroy the Death Star, but at the end of that day, literally all she has left is the Alliance and those three pilots who managed to unlock her cell door without too much trouble.
I don't know about you, but I'd be straight-up shut down emotionally at that point. Like, I don't think PTSD even covers what Leia probably has going on in her head. And I think that's kind of what we see in ESB (I know the filmmakers weren’t thinking in terms of PTSD, but there are still hints of it there regardless). She's angry, she's afraid of losing people (she's obviously pissed Han is leaving after he said he'd stay, but also, there's a scene that was cut -- a good move in my opinion because the dialogue is beyond dramatic and Carrie seems out of it, but it stands that this was the intended source of Leia’s frustration -- where Luke is telling Leia he's leaving the Alliance for Dagobah and she is extremely upset that both he and Han are leaving, goes on a whole rant about how she should know better than to trust anyone but herself, etc.), and when she finally lets Han in, she promptly loses him and nearly loses Luke.
And then the events of ROTJ happen and she finds out that the man who tortured her, who stood idly by while her entire planet was destroyed, who tortured the man she loves and handed him off to the space mob to be murdered, who cut off her brother's hand and nearly allowed him to die, who has terrorized the Galaxy in general, that guy is her bio dad. And that guy is the entire reason she's Force-sensitive.
Leia stopping her Jedi training in the new canon was for a dumb reason, I agree there. Leia not wanting anything to do with the thing that, from her point of view, nearly ruined her life and the lives of those she loves about a thousand times over...I dunno, I think that's way more interesting than her just going, "Ope, I'm a Skywalker! You know what that means! Gotta be a Jedi!" And as far as her being more of a natural at it...do we know that Leia is better at healthy non-attachment than Luke? Like, any response to a planet being destroyed could easily just be a trauma response. Is shutting down like that good, actually? Or is it just going to cause problems down the road, Anakin-style?
I don't know, I just think that after living through all of that as well as a freaking war, girly might want a quiet life -- that she gets to choose -- with a husband -- who she gets to choose -- and kids -- who she gets to raise without the threat of the Empire or her nightmare of a biological father looming over their lives. And the very fact that she's able to open herself up to that sort of love and affection when the fear that it might all be ripped away from her is likely ever-present is a big deal. Her having kids knowing they'll likely be Force-sensitive even though that aspect of her biology terrifies her is a big deal. And as far as her not expressing a desire for marriage and kids in the OT...I mean, Leia isn't given the opportunity to express her desire for much in the OT, let's be real (she also never expresses a desire to become a Jedi in the OT either. We can't use what Leia didn't express in the OT to dictate whether she wants or doesn't want something is what I'm saying). They're at war. She's a military leader. She probably can't even hazard wishing for anything beyond waking up the next day. But that's not to say she didn't want such things or grow to want such things once she felt it was safe to do so. We literally don't know, but I don't think the absence of that expressed desire is indicative of anything.
As far as Han goes, I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure in every iteration of his story, his itchy feet weren't like...a part of his personality. He had a highly traumatic childhood that left him with few options and ended up living a transient lifestyle out of necessity. He actually seems remarkably easy to keep around if you don't treat him like garbage. I mean, he's given exactly one day of friendship, and he sticks around with the Rebellion for three years before some run-in with a bounty hunter makes him realize he needs to take care of his debt with Jabba. He's not leaving just for funsies or because he's bored or just really needs to be a smuggler again...and he seems legitimately sad have to leave when he's not busy getting pissed at Leia for not having the emotional response he wants her to have (first half of ESB Han is being a big ol' baby and I'm perfectly fine admitting that). And what character growth to see Han "I'm in it for the money" Solo learn to care for his friends, learn to support a cause, learn to love Leia when he's spent so much of his life unattached. Han making boring life choices is indicative of character growth and learning to care about others more than himself. What a lovely thing for this man to learn.
The call for Leia and Han to remain living separate lives but still committed to one another kind of demands that they move backward in character growth in my opinion. We have two people who are in rough places due, by and large, to trauma, who eventually open up to one another and seem better for it and then they...just go back to what they were doing before except they occasionally see each other? Why would they want that? They've grown as people, they've won a dang war, and they're finally able to live somewhat securely. Why wouldn't they want to live basic lives when they were denied the privilege of such choices for so long? And how is them making choices based on their love for another person — love that they had a heck of a time coming to terms with — boring?

@theneutralmime
I think people make a bigger deal out of this than it actually was intended to be within the context of the OT.
In the Kenobi show, yes, he's obsessed with Obi-Wan and that's the entire point, but it's about Obi-Wan representing who he used to be, it's about Obi-Wan at this point being sort-of the LAST connection to his past that Anakin knows about (since he's obviously unaware of Luke/Leia's existence and doesn't yet know Ahsoka's alive), and it's about VENGEANCE for Mustafar and Anakin focusing on his own pain and misery and wanting to bring Obi-Wan down with him.
In the OT, the reason he brings up Obi-Wan every time Luke does something Jedi-like is presumably for two reasons: one, that's literally all Anakin knows about, and two, Anakin and Obi-Wan were intentionally created to be foils for each other as the "good father" and "bad father" of the story. WE know that Obi-Wan barely spent any time training Luke as a Jedi and that he's had to learn MOST of what he knows on his own with a little help from Yoda later on, but ANAKIN doesn't know that. So far as Anakin knows, Obi-Wan spent 19 years raising and training Luke into being a Jedi and so everything Luke knows comes straight from Obi-Wan. And by ESB, we start getting the parallels between them even more because that's where the revelation about Luke's parentage comes in, something that's getting foreshadowed all throughout ESB and then dealt with in ROTJ, so emphasizing Obi-Wan's influence on Luke helps contrast with the revelation of Anakin being his father and the potential influence THAT might have on Luke.
Like, sure, whatever, if people want to read into it that Anakin is just still super obsessed with Obi-Wan all the time by the OT period, there's nothing saying you're WRONG, but I don't think that's supposed to be the intended reading nor do I think it's the intended effect of these moments in the OT. It IS the intended reading in the Kenobi show, they make that very explicit, but it's done for a very specific purpose, to say something about Anakin and who he's become and why Obi-Wan needs to let him go.

Hello, do you have any recs for star wars books and comics with the best lukeleia content? In my lukeleia era and I really wanna start reading some OT legends stuff but I don’t know where to start.
Stories that take place during, between, and shortly after the Original Trilogy? We are lucky to have decades worth of content set in this time period! It’s the only place we can find things published before the sibling reveal, and/or acknowledging that Luke and Leia were attracted to each other.
✨I’ve included links to every book and comic mentioned below. I don’t think it’s immoral to pirate from a corporation. If you (general) take issue with that, I have bought most items listed at least once, and I would lend it to you if I could.
✨Some of the comics are only available in large collections, you may need to scroll to find the correct issues.
Legends Books
The first that comes to mind is Splinter of the Mind’s Eye. It was published in 1978, Luke and Leia were still love interests, and it takes place after ANH. They crash land on a mining planet and discover there is an Imperial presence there.
Fun Facts:
This story was commissioned to be a low budget sequel if A New Hope flopped.
This novel also inspired some of the canon lore for kyber crystals.
I started an impromptu reread earlier this year, and I did not remember how shippy this book was. This is just four pages into the book:
Splinter of the Mind’s Eye was also adapted into a comic in 1995… and it was still incredibly shippy? I recommend both if you have the time and executive function. If you’re low on focus or time, go with the comic.
I’ve been told the novelization of A New Hope also has the same vibes, and is by the same author. So if you enjoy Splinter thats another place to look.
As far as other novels, we’re mostly looking at crumbs. Off the top of my head I know both Shadows of the Empire and The Truce at Bakura acknowledge their feelings for each other.
Shadows of the Empire:
The Truce at Bakura:
I would only recommend these if you’re interested in the rest of either story.
Shadows is a take on what happened between ESB and ROTJ, published in ‘96. Want to see how the Rebels get the plans for the Second Death Star? Read this. Want to see Darth Vader forced to play politics? Read this. If Han and Leia’s relationship is a no go for you, you might consider skipping it. Content Warning: the antagonist attempts to “seduce” Leia via pheromones. Read: rape. He is a serial rapist.
Truce takes place immediately after ROTJ, and has some great character moments for our heroes, again a lot of focus on Leia and Han. I do, however, choose to view the fact that Luke’s love interest in this book is a young Imperial Senator who we are meant to compare to Leia, through a shippy lense. I cannot escape the idea that Luke is projecting. Otherwise this book is about dinosaur looking aliens using human’s life energy to power their ships.
If you’re interested in checking any of these books out I recommend looking here or here.
Legends Comics
Splinter of the Mind’s Eye (1995)—as mentioned above.
Star Wars Tales (1999-2005) 15, Do or Do Not—Takes place immediately after ROTJ. Luke is processing after the Battle of Endor, and uncertain of his place. His feelings for Leia are acknowledged.
Star Wars (2013) 1-6, In the Shadow of Yavin—Takes pace after ANH. Leia is working with a handpicked X-wing squadron, to expose a spy. Her position in command causes friction between her and Luke. This is one of the few stories really leans into Leia having feelings for Luke.
Star Wars (2013) 15-18, Rebel Girl—Leia accepts a political proposal in exchange for a secure base location. Luke is a jealous brat about it, puts himself in danger, and plans to run away.
Marvel Star Wars (‘77–86)—I haven’t read these yet, but I’ve seen plenty of panels and pages posted on Tumblr that give lukeleia vibes, even some that take place after ROTJ. These have been gathered into several omnibuses. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
Disney Comics
Star Wars (2015) 1-6, Skywalker Strikes—After ANH, the gang is infiltrating an Imperial arms factory, Vader shows up, Luke has a crisis. The Luke and Leia interactions are primarily in issues 3 & 4, but it’s a solid story arc.
Star Wars (2015) 33–Actual Publisher’s Summary: The Hero of the Rebellion & the Princess of the Revolution! Luke and Leia finally get some time alone… Unfortunately, it's stranded on a desert island.
The Storms of Crait (2017)—After ANH. Our heroes travel to Crait, in hopes of establishing a base there. Luke is delightfully flustered by a kiss on the cheek from Leia.
Star Wars Adventures (2017) 4 & 5, The Trouble at Tibrin—Leia and Luke are on a diplomatic mission that goes awry. Leia rescues Luke in this one. Acknowledges Luke’s feelings.
Star Wars Adventures Annual 2018, Mind Your Manners—Another diplomatic mission gone wrong. Not all that shippy, but discovered it while making this list, so it felt wrong to leave it off.
Star Wars Adventures (2020) 7 & 8, The Princess and the Bog, A Twin Tale—Leia and Luke are scouting base locations. Luke is terrible at following Leia’s orders, and wants to pet all the animals.
Star Wars Hyperspace Stories (2022) 2–Another search for a base location. There are several cute moments between them in this one.
Deleted Scenes & Behind The Scenes
I know the ask was about books and novels, but I’d also recommend—if you haven’t already—searching for deleted scenes, alternate takes, behind the scenes photos and promo photos, etc. There are goodies from each film, but the most substantial stuff is from/for ESB.
Is That Everything?
I doubt it. There are many other stories that take place in this time frame that I haven’t investigated yet. Here are some that are on my list:
Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor (Legends novel)
Heir to the Jedi (Canon novel)
Heart of the Jedi (unpublished Legends novel)
Star Wars (1977-1986) (Legends comics) (mentioned above)
Star Wars (2020) aka Star Wars V3 (Canon comics)
Razor’s Edge & Honor Among Thieves (Legends novel duology)
I’d bet on there being content down the timeline that reads as shippy, but that’s a whole future post.

Leia & Vader: Rule of Law, beliefs and family
Another aspect I liked of Leia and Vader first scene in A New Hope is the different way in which Leia tries to appeal her case with Vader in constast to Tarkin. Lest remember Leia was trained as a diplomatic since a young age as a future Senator and member of the Organa monarchy so the way she wields her words there tells much about what she knows of the person she´s talking with.
With Vader Leia uses the "I am a member of the imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan" card when Vader mentions this wasn´t about a "mercy mission" and she was a rebel and a traitor.
This tell me two things:
1.- Leia believes Vader will respect the authority of the Senate on this matter.
Vader may be the Emperor right hand man but he´s someone Leia knows who at least tries to follow the rules and Vader response talks about previous experiences of this happening.
2.- "You werent´on any mercy mission THIS TIME" Leia and Vader meet before, possibly during one of Leia´s mercy missions and on the Senate.
Vader is impliying here if Leia was truly on a mercy mission from Alderaan then he would have not problem with it, he says she should stop trying to play games with him and to tell him where are the plans the rebels sent her.
What´s interesting for me here is that Leia is appealing to Vader´s sense of law and order because this has worked before, she has used many mercy missions to help the rebel alliance making it look like she was sending help to planets in trouble which Vader seems to not have a problem with.
Vader says to Luke on ESB about becoming leaders of the Empire to "put order in the galaxy" so Leia going on mercy missions to help the population in other planets falls neatly into Vader´s idea of order.
Leia also believes she can lie to him, which is understable, he´s someone Leia believes can be talked down to given how the Emperor treats Vader, he shares "Vader´s leash" with Tarkin and maybe other officials, so Vader may have some personal authority but she knows he´s completely subjected to the Emperor´s will and Tarkin´s, she doesn´t know why but know´s is the truth.
This is in complete contrast with Tarkin who Leia automatically starts insulting and says she´s surprised he´s going to take the responsibility for executing her, Tarkin is the Emperor proxy there narratively speaking.
Leia doesn´t try to appeal to Tarkin using the Senate, the diplomatic laws or the fact she´s on a mercy mission because she knows he doesn´t care for any of that but he may care for taking responsibility for killing her because she´s a member of a Monarchy from one of the Core worlds of the Galaxy and a Senator. She´s trying to use her power in relation to his own because Tarkin main motivation and what he responds to is power.
All this tells me Vader and Leia meet on the Senate and kind of had a rivalry for their respective political agendas but despite this fact, Leia still expected Vader to follow the Law when the Emperor and Tarkin would not if they didn´t choose to.
It´s a shame this period, the meetings between Leia and Vader before the Death Star is completely ignored and once Vader shows Leia his other face, the face of the executioner, he losses all credibility she may have given him previously and while she´s a aware Tarkin gave the order to destroy Alderaan she blames Vader by proxy because he was the only one left alive of the first Death Star and I believe their previous meetings makes this more personal for her and I think this plays perfectly later in ROTJ when Luke told Leia about Vader being their father.
Leia believes Luke, Leia wants to keep Luke´s safe but more importantly, Leia doesn´t think Luke is crazy for believing he can bring Vader back from the "darkside", she doesn´t think his self appointed mission lacks merit despite her having all the reason in the world to tell Luke he´s wrong for ever believing Vader could be other thing than evil or stop being the Emperor´s slave and I think the reason why she understands Luke´s mission is because she herself has seen this little light, this aspect of Vader many other people ignore but she cares way more about Luke´s safety so she tells him to run and hide while wishing she could go with him because they are family.
Leia´s actions here also oppose her rebel leader persona, as leader of the rebellion Leia could have the right to detain Luke because he plainly told her, "I want to make sure Darth Vader isn´t on the second Death Star when the alliance blows it up because he´s my father and I want to save him" Leia stays on her mission because she´s loyal to the alliance but truts Luke to do his self appointed mission and scape safe because he´s her brother and she loves him, even if it means the rescue of the second in command from the Empire. This is an amazing show of trust and loyalty from Leia to Luke, her trust that he may have a point in trying to save Vader.
I know Leia being Luke´s sister and Vader´s daughter wasn´t planned in a New Hope but this still connected neatly with the first movie because those subtlies were still there.

luke thoughts, hm. how about his sleeping habits? what position does he usually fall asleep in? i imagine on the farm he was an early bird, but does he stay that way in the rebellion? what does he wear to bed? does he dream, or remember his dreams? i’d love to know what you think :3
eeeeee I actually love this <3 thank you!
I feel that, on occasion, Luke will be one to mumble in his sleep; maybe even twitch his hands up as if he is reacting to something, or do a little face scrunch while dreaming deeply. I can imagine that happening to pre-rotj Luke often enough, at the very least.
I have a few ideas for him when it comes to sleeping positions; firstly I can imagine that, younger him especially (think pre-anh or just anh), would constantly be thrashing around in bed through the night, awake or asleep, therefore it would be constantly changing through the night at that time in his life. On the other hand, I imagine Luke as someone who has always needed to hold or cuddle something/someone to sleep more comfortably no matter which Luke period this is, so if he doesn't have a partner he falls asleep on his side and clutching a soft pillow close to his chest. I also have this image of ESB Luke asleep on his stomach, cheek squished against his pillow as his arms are hooked underneath it. and just imagine that bedhead...his hair would be so messy yet soft and fluffy at once.
I too can't help but think that when it comes to ROTJ Luke, or post etc... that he is a much better sleeper, he tends to fall asleep on his back, on his side with his hand tucked under his cheek, or even in a sitting position at times when he meditates a little too hard. He is also a light sleeper, driven awake by any small sound as he's always so in tune with his surroundings even when fast asleep. Yet despite how he has this calmer mindset to enjoy a peaceful sleep, I can imagine that there are stresses in his life that disrupt him from time to time. He worries about his students, his sister and Han wherever they may be, and occasionally he will feel something deeply wrong in the force that has him waking in a cold sweat. He feels too much, he's been through too much, and it still effects him no matter how great a Jedi he is.
He also was definitely forced to be an early bird on the farm, but I don't think it to be something he ever truly got used to. And unfortunately, I doubt he had much time to sleep in when in the rebellion, for it was more stressful than his simple farm life- although, when he DOES get a chance to sleep in, Leia has to physically pull him from the bed after an hour or two of peaceful slumber. He also gets so grumpy about it too, his tone raspy yet whiney at once when he begs for five more minutes. Spoiler; Leia does not give in to his wishes. (Pssstt, and he's almost just the same even as a Jedi when he has students to teach if he has a partner; he cannot bare to part from them when they are so adorably nuzzled into his side. He would stay in bed with them all day if he could, keeping them close to him as he places sleepy kisses to their hair or cheeks. the only difference is that Jedi Luke understands he cannot ignore his responsibilities as a master to his students).
In regards to what he wears to bed, I have a few ideas: I think his sleepwear is pretty generic when he's in the rebellion, a basic tunic and sweats that are either off white or beige (maybe a sweater in the echo base since its so cold), and ROTJ/post-rotj Luke would be essentially the same, except I DO very much like to imagine him in black, perhaps even with slightly fuzzy pyjama pants on (shirt? no shirt? depends on his mood or temperature too. but if he has a partner, he keeps the shirt off knowing damn well where their eyes like to wander). But ANH Luke? I love to picture that aunt Beru maybe puts together some handmade pyjamas for him, especially as a child. They're so soft, and sometimes fuzzy if she has the material for it. He still thinks of them from time to time, wishing they hadn't burnt to ash in the fire, so perhaps when he has the time and is somewhere with market stalls and the like, he tries to find a similar material or even tries his hand at making his own like she did for him (He may not be very good at it, but he tries.)
In terms of dreams, I imagine he has always been much of a dreamer. When he was a child, he used to have these vivid dreams of a woman, sometimes where she appeared very sad or another where he saw her with flowers in her hair as she slept. He found comfort in these somehow, and they always seemed to happen around his birthday, but that part he didn't really understand and eventually they began to fade with time as he grew older. Only later as a Jedi did he remember them and realize he was seeing his mother. I also like to imagine that he has either the most chill dreams ever (Pretty normal. Maybe where he is following some beautiful path in a meadow with flowers and cutest little bugs buzzing around him, or he is speaking with a friend either old or new, maybe even doing some maintenance on his ship), or the most insane in every sense of the word (buildings and people turn into different shapes or colours around him, or he dreams someone is speaking the most illogical words to him before he's pushed off a cliff and lands in the most random of places. maybe he even dreams his lightsaber turns into a baguette, who knows?).
When he becomes a Jedi, his dreams start to make some sense. They give him signs, warnings, or even just messages to help him through his days. Sometimes he dreams of his father, and he wakes up in serene peace for reasons he can't fully comprehend. He often meditates on these, and takes them seriously when the need arises. But thats not to say his dreams are always helpful as a Jedi by default. He still has those occasional crazy ones, or those random yet calm ones that don't mean much at all. He enjoys dreaming, though. He enjoys allowing sleep to overcome him as his subconscious treats him to an adventure.
-thats not to be said he doesn't get nightmares either, though. Sometimes he wakes up in the night and can feel the force lightning coursing through his veins, and if he has a partner next to him, he will hold them for comfort, maybe talk about his fears if they're awake. He can still remember how he burned his own father to ash, dreaming of that very fire as his voice croaks out from the darkness. Luke even has horrible nightmares about Leia dying tragically, and the very next morning he has to figure out if this was simply a nightmare or something to genuinely worry of.

✊🏼💦 for luke plss
Minors DNI!! 18+ only with age in bio to interact!!
hey! thanks for sending this! sorry my response is late but omg let's get into it!
✊ masturbation headcanon
Luke is very… imaginative. He has pretty intense fantasies that he lets his mind run wild with when he gets off
In fact, he’s prone to accidentally having random stray dirty thoughts cross his mind when he’s trying to focus— when he’s meditating or strategizing or even flying sometimes. He’ll be in the cockpit of his x wing and randomly envision you, crouched between his legs with his cock down your throat
He’s always a little shocked at himself when that happens so he’s quick to snap out of it and refocus. He knows if he starts, he won’t be able to stop
Once he’s alone though, and has enough time to pleasure himself, he really lets his imagination get best of him and indulges in his dirty thoughts completely
His preferred method is fucking his pillow. It’s such a versatile option— he can roll it up and fuck into it hard while he props himself up on his knees, pretending he’s deep inside you
Or lay on his side and slowly grind against it and envision lazy morning sex with you
Or roll onto his stomach and shove it between his legs while he reaches a hand back to play with his ass, pretending it’s your fingers that are teasing his hole <3333
He also experiments with other ways to get off, though. I like to think around esb era he learns he can get himself off completely hands free. Just ruts up into nothing, tensing and un-tensing his abs and gripping his blankets until he spills, not having laid a hand on his cock at all
He’s not quiet at all, either. He makes sure no one is around before he gets off so he can be as loud as he wants ��
💦 cum headcanon
I have talked a lot about this (in fact maybe too much lol?) but it bears repeating. Luke cums so much, and so fast for you
He’s sensitive, a light touch, and it. is. so. hot
Luke finds himself getting worked up really easily. He’s deeply fantasized about you and now all of that is coming to fruition and it’s just so much for him to take that he’s whimpering, whining, grinding his hips up against yours like there’s nothing more offensive than the idea of there being any space between your bodies at all
He’s a little shy about how fast he cums. He gets a little better at going longer eventually, what with all that Jedi patience but you can always manage to overwhelm him in a good way
He is not shy, however, about how much he can cum
Mostly because he likes seeing you covered in his spend
His cock leaks pre-cum for you in amounts that seem copious compared to other men. If you edge him, you can literally make his cock drip for you
Sometimes when you go to undress him and pull out his cock after some foreplay, there’s already a wet spot on his underwear. Sometimes it’s pre, sometimes he already came in his pants for you and is ready to go again that quick
You usually already know which, because he’s incapable of hiding when he cums. He almost always starts off rambling about how close he is or something along those lines, then he gasps sharply and his voice catches on a moan as he topples over the edge. He’s so obvious <3
Minimum refractory period. He has one, it’s just shorter than you might expect and it also helps that he loves being overstimulated and will cum for you as many times in a row as he can take (about three or four rounds before he’s cumming dry)
The first time he cums in a session is always the most, of course. You get to tease him about being “messy,” which he then immediately remedies by cleaning you up with his mouth <3

My best friend is arriving for a visit, but I don't know exactly when he'll get here, so I'm passing the uncertain time with one of my favorite long-standing hobbies: watching Star Wars OT+PT fanvids set specifically to "This Is War."
It is the most SW non-SW song as far as I'm concerned and I always get a kick out of seeing how the vids assign the "roles" from the song: the good, the evil, the soldier, the civilian, the martyr, the victim, the prophet, the liar, the honest, the leader, the pariah, the victim, and the messiah. Everyone does it a little bit differently (though I stand by my long-term opinion that the correct choice for the last one is Anakin, while leader, pariah, and victor fit really well with, and build appropriately to, Leia, Obi-Wan, and Luke).
I also appreciate the comedy of some of them, like pairing Obi-Wan telling Luke about Anakin in ANH with "It's the moment of truth" or "the honest." But there are a lot of options for things like "the victim" or "the martyr" or whatnot (I'd probably pick Padmé for civilian but I saw one that chose Lando for that, which seems very apropos considering his motives in ESB, and I can see her as "the martyr" too).
Anyway. I've periodically done this for years and it's still fun.
#good star wars vids are the best actually#i have neither the time skill nor patience for vidding but i do really enjoy them#and sw is so visually oriented that it's kind of ideal for it#anghraine babbles#star wars#deep blogging

Is this going to be set up like the FACPOV books where each character has only one story per movie? Or could say, someone write about Mara on Tatooine at the beginning of RotJ, and then someone else also write about her at the end of RotJ after the destruction of the Death Star?
Great question! The short answer is that while we don’t have any rules that are that hard and fast (e.g. “only one story per character per movie”), we purposely designed our pitch guidelines so that we would have a variety of time periods within the OT timeframe, characters, and events to choose from in determining which pitches folks would write for the event and building a diverse collection of stories. As much as we’d probably all enjoy 20 stories about the same four pilots on Hoth right before ESB (we have a very talented fandom, they could make that work), part of the spirit of the event is to read a lot of different points of view.
That said, a lot depends on what the whole universe of signups looks like. If we had two writers, each of whose first choice was a pitch about Mara Jade at different points of ROTJ, we might assign one writer their second or third choice pitch (or fourth or fifth, if they’ve chosen to pitch more than three ideas) instead. Or, if the pitches really did offer different perspectives (a lot has changed for Mara by the end of ROTJ!) and there weren’t a lot of other stories with Mara as the point-of-view character already, we might assign both writers their first choice.
You didn’t ask for advice, but our advice is to pitch what you most want to write as your first choice, no matter who else might be pitching the same character and/or timeframe. And make sure your other pitches are ones you would also enjoy writing, too. But the collection is going to be best when we have a lot of writers who are really excited about what they’re contributing — so as long as you’re following the pitch and story guidelines, don’t feel the need to limit yourself before you begin.
Thank you so much for the ask!

So, I used to have a master list of all of my fics with descriptions (generally a lot more casual and quippy than what's on AO3/FFN), word count, complete/WIP status, etc. pinned on my blog, but then there were too many fics and I stopped updating it and unpinned it.
Anyway, do y'all find fic collection posts like that helpful at all? And if so, what form do you prefer? Please assume for the purposes of this poll that the collection posts will have consistent tags, which should (hopefully) make them easy to find as long as Tumblr behaves itself.
