Carefully, Leia picked her way off the dirt path, bordering the little watercourse so she could peer down below. The sight that greeted her felt like a physical blow, sudden, unexpected, violent. She felt hot and then cold and then nauseous, paralyzed and shaky, hyperventilating through the sharp pain in the middle of her chest. Dimly, Leia realized she was crying out. They weren’t on Lothal anymore. They were on Alderaan.

Mother, make me a song so sweet (2026)

Summary: While exploring an ancient Jedi temple, Han and Leia follow Luke through a portal that throws them into the World Between Worlds, an extra-dimensional plane within the Force where anything can happen. For Leia, it could be her one chance to fix the past... or make her peace with it.

First, there was the silent, almost mute crack of the ice. The pressure of their boots onto the frozen ground and the hard snow breaking under their steps. Nothing remotely suspicious or unusual, no sign of alarm or panic.

She only heard the loud, heart-stopping breaking of snow and ice blocks when it had already been too late.

or what happens when Han and Leia get stuck inside an ice cave on Hoth, eight cellars under the surface level.

and you're a disaster

“‘Cause I’m stupid… ‘nd damaged,” Han’s voice trailed off into a bit of a laugh, pulling his head back but keeping his eyes ducked. Her chest tightened. “And you’re a disaster.” Leia made a disbelieving, offended noise, which only made Han’s small, sad smile grow. It faltered and fell on his next line, his voice giving his true feelings away. “And you live two thousand god damn miles away.”

After a sleepless night worrying about Han and Luke and waking up to the news of their return, Leia decides to check on Han and, hopefully, get some closure before he leaves for good.

This was my fic for the 2025 Han/Leia Holiday Exchange, written for @walkawaytall!

One of the prompts was “what happened between Han and Leia in ESB while Luke was being treated for his wampa injuries?” and there was only one place my mind went to.

The flight back from Jabba's Palace leads Han and Leia right where they needed to be, in each other's arms.

“Han, I’m not going to slip through your fingers.” She whispered, hesitant to disrupt the gentle moment between them, but in spite of her words, her fingers closed around his forearm, just to feel his pulse humming beneath the skin. “Han, you’re staring right through me.”

She could see the fight he was having behind his eyes, and she was about to speak up to try to pull him out of it until he finally broke his silence. “Don’t go.”

“I could use you being less stubborn!” she shouted in a sole breath, her voice trembling and eyes on the verge of drowning in her own tears, a tight knot forming at the base of her throat.

Han stopped, one foot already inside the carriage, gloved hand gripping onto the door handle as if his life depended on it. Still,he did not turn around. Another sorrowful chuckle escaped his lips, and all the little droplets of hope left in Leia’s heart died as he shook his head in disapproval.

“You could use a good kiss!”

A scandal erupting during Countess Naberrie's birthday soiree leads to a hard time between Leia and Han as the strings of their affair are slowly unweaving.

Leia knew, from the moment that Han left, that he would either return with their son or never come back at all.

She did not expect a body.

An alternative ending for The Force Awakens everybody deserved.

Less Miserable

"What happened?" she asked, her voice sounding a touch smoother, though still strained. Her eyes were still rimmed in red and squinty, her skin a shade paler than usual without its usual rosy color underneath. Worry curdled into concern, pushing his chair closer to the edge of her bed, his chest bumping into the frame. "You wouldn't wake up when I got home," he explained, finding his vision had gone suddenly blurry and he was unable to keep looking at her. A burn started to build in the back of his throat, remembering the terror of realizing she wasn’t just asleep, her strangled groan and the hot feeling of her skin under his hands. "Your fever spiked to a hundred and four," his voice was near a whisper now, his fingertips still stroking her knuckles, gaze firmly set on the weave of the scratchy blanket.

A sick-fic ask-box prompt originally sent by @walkawaytall! i liked it enough to rework it into a full length one-shot.
