Never. I’ll never turn to the Dark Side. x

[rimonoroni2]

we need more fics exploring how luke’s aunt was implicitly a retired anti-slavery revolutionary. that’d be interesting to explore i think

[rimonoroni2]

luke is talking to leia some time post trilogy and he’s like yeah when i was little we used to put up these random twi’lek women in the guest room in the middle of the night every so often and after they’d arrive my aunt would stand outside with a rifle for a while. also owen taught me to always shoot bounty hunters on the property first and ask questions later. i have no idea what all of that’s about. and leia just stares at him for a long while before hes like w. wait a minute… ohhhhhh

“Just when Anakin thought he’d passed that elusive finishing line that said adult, experienced, seen it all, he realized he was still twenty, Jedi or not, and the wounded boy in him still rose to the surface—provoked into angry violence, scared of abandonment, and still in need of approval.”

— Karen Traviss [Star Wars: The Clone Wars Novelization]

[stagbeetleboy]

Ok if we exclude Palpatine who has the gayest lightsaber?

[stagbeetleboy]

This is Palpatine’s lightsaber btw. He duel wields.

[stagbeetleboy]

Actually it’s genius. It’s is a foolproof design if you don’t want to get caught with a lightsaber

*goes through chancellor’s desk drawers and finds this*

*slowly closes drawer and never mentions it*

[wolviecat]

If you see something…say nothing and drink to forget

[saul-tortellini]

It can't possibly be that blat-

[stealingpotatoes]

i know anakin and padme both having curly hair while luke & leia's is straight is more of an era/actors thing, but it's also really funny to imagine the twins having naturally curly hair and just doing this before every scene:

What she says: I’m fine

What she means: So in ‘The Empire Strikes Back’ when Vader just offs Ozzel and promotes Piett like five ranks with barely a glance like how exactly did that work out like did he have to argue with other officers that yes, in fact, Darth Vader /totally/ just made him admiral and compile witnesses and a supporting sound file or is this an event that happens frequently enough that the people who document this shit just roll their eyes and go “He fucking did it again, guys” and curse under their breaths because they just got another load of fucking paperwork to deal with another dead fucking admiral and another pile of ranks to give some random asshole and it wasn’t even clarified whether he was a rear admiral or an admiral admiral so they’ll just have to fucking figure that out, too, then or-

[fialleril]

Alternatively:

The folks in HR just shrug when they see the name Piett, because this only ever happens to him. He’s been promoted like 10 times over the bodies of previous superiors. Vader likes the guy, obviously, and they’ve given up asking why. At this point they’ve just got the paperwork for every possible rank Piett could be promoted to ready to go.

[pomrania]

I love this because it also implies that somewhere, some HR folks have the paperwork ready to go, for if Piett should ever be “promoted” to Emperor.

It's nearly 3am and I just had the most worldshaking epiphany: Anakin Skywalker is only nine years older than Han Solo. This is important for several reasons (one of which is "oh my god Anakin is a BABY when he has kids") but the most important is that obviously now there has to be an AU where Anakin was never Vader and instead he just peaced out of the Jedi order and became like a bounty hunter or something but my money is on smuggler bc pilot, and also because where I'm heading with this is an AU where Han and Anakin are, like, familiar with each other before Han ever gets involved w Luke and Leia and the rebellion. Like, they're acquaintances. Frenemies. Business associates, idk.

Will add more later

[dragkingandreweldritch]

tfw you meet your fiancee's dad and 1. you've swindled him multiple times, 2. you've made out with him even more than that

[thejgatsbykid]

Anakin calls obi wan to be like "so you know that absolute himbo i used to do crime with every so often and also make out sometimes? He's dating my daughter now" and obi wan is like "from the bottom of my heart, you deserve this and I'm thrilled it's happening"

[allskywalkerswhine]

in fics where luke gets plopped into the prequels i want every jedi within ten metres of him to think hes the weirdest jedi theyve ever seen. he has negative lightsaber form. he doesnt know what a kata is. he handstands when he meditates. his solution to sith is to try and have a chat. hes a political radical who keeps suggesting revolution. you ask him what the jedi code is and he says "kindness and compassion and helping those in need :) ". you ask how he used the force like that and he says some shit about how you are a luminous being limited only by your mind. the councils authority is just a suggestion. he is somehow the new favourite of both qui gon and yoda

[capriceandwhimsy]

Now I'm imagining a situation like in Terry Pratchett's Night Watch where Luke admits to Mace Windu, "I came here from another time."

And Mace looks at Luke's completely unrefined lightsaber style, his profoundly philosophical insights about the Force, his disdain for authority, and his lack of knowledge of Jedi doctrine, and asks, "From how far back?"

[syn0vial]

my oldest boba fett headcanon, from before i even knew what a headcanon was, is that this man, who regularly whiled away the hours on kamino as a boy reading novels and who has a job that often requires him to do nothing more than stand around looking menacing for hours on end, definitely has an e-reader app installed on his helmet

[redbean-nom]

boba missed luke like four times on the sail barge and then fell in the sarlacc because he accidentally clicked his 23 open tabs of space-ao3 instead of his combat display

[bairnsidhe]

You cannot leave this gold in the tags!

[penny-anna]

I'm not really a HanLuke shipper but I can imagine them hooking up early in their friendship & then Han later after various revelations having a personal crisis over whether or not it's weird to have sex with both halves of a set of twins

[penny-anna]

& like he can't ask anyone if it's weird without admitting that he's already done it. he could talk to Luke about it bcos obviously Luke already knows but he's kind of avoiding the subject with Luke in case drawing attention to the fact that he's dating Luke's sister prompts a shovel talk. he's pretty sure Luke can kill people with his brain now and he doesn't want to have that particular shovel talk if he an avoid it.

[cipheramnesia]

If Han came to me with this kind of question, I would be very supportive and make sure he didn't uncomfortable about having to ask the question because most of all this is about his feelings.

However, I would also desperately need to know if Luke used the force on that thang, and Han also knows I would ask, which is why he never brings these problems to me.

[penny-anna]

[gil-estel]

ok so. I've been thinking. what if leia's "thing" is that she's imperceptible in the force. like, she's so innately powerful at shielding, she's just not there. Anakin didn't know padme was having twins because he literally couldn't sense leia's presence. yoda and obi-wan were fine with bail taking leia because they couldn't perceive her thoughts, even as an infant. neither reva nor vader could penetrate her mind. she spent years in the senate alongside palpatine and he had no idea she was force sensitive. the only person who can see leia for who she really is is the one who has been there from the beginning — luke.

[emptyjunior]

luke: hey i am getting intensely powerful and somewhat intimidating vibes from leia, like the vibes of a dominant and ancient power buried beneath the surface 

 the gang: looks like SOMEONES never talked to a strong woman before

[jonathanrogersartist-deactivate]

That is a DAMN FUCKING GOOD headcanon.

[lizzy-bennet]

Deleted Leia sass from The Empire Strikes Back

[ragnell]

Leia, you were scheduled for execution.

Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin Solo by Max Dunbar

[forcewound]

[honeyglot]

A study in Obi-Wan Kenobi’s life as a Jedi, the tragedy of Star Wars, & dialogue from the Obi-Wan Kenobi trailer.

[cytosinesketch]

Allana was four now; she was a little girl, walking and talking. Every time he sneaked a visit to see her, she’d grown a lot. Did she ask about her daddy? No, she was Hapan royalty, and even at that age she would have been schooled to remain silent about her parentage. How tall was she now? Was she aware of her Force powers yet? He had endless questions, the kind that a father who saw his daughter daily never had to ask

I’m not there for her. I’m not seeing her grow up. I don’t even have a holo of her.

;) Someone asked if I could do some Tenel Ka and Jacen, so……. 

[vorbarrsultana]

the skywalkers look hilarious next to each other on height comparison chart, but also:

padmé is the tallest skywalker lady with confirmed canon height, closely followed by shmi and mara;

jaina proudly holds the title of the tiniest adult skywalker;

anakin is the tallest skywalker ever, followed by jacen;

(is there a minimal height requirement for the banite sith of the family?);

JAINA AND JACEN’S HEIGHT DIFFERENCE IS 33 CM, THE TOP OF HER HEAD CAN BARELY REACH HIS SHOULDER, THAT'S GREAT;

they are the ultimate tol and smol sweu duo;

out of the three couples, luke and mara have the smallest height difference, just 12 cm 🥺❤;

adult jacen is barely taller than han;

(tall enough to get petty about it though);

luke and 17-ish anakin solo are the same height, but grown up nik would have been 2-3 cm taller;

and therefore no threat to luke's first (from the end) spot on the skywalker men height scale.
