i just finished reading just under 490,000 words over like 5 days.
10/10 fanfic, i ADORE it; if i found this fic BEFORE i finished my ifw posts (i did not forget about the hms or masterlist. i have the hms in a collection via bookmarks and the masterlist drafted. i just don't have power or a stable internet connection to be working on them rn), this definitely would have gone on it.
REGARDLESS. this is such an amazing sw fic.
completed at 142 chapters, codywan, mando obi, BATTLEMASTER OBI, AHSOKA AS OBI'S PADAWAN, MANDO AHSOKA, fix-it, slow burn, excellent pacing, VERY minor grammar errors (although i suspect some of it may be because i'm used to american english grammar, not uk english grammar), accurate enough characterization given it goes SUUUUPERRRR AU, jedi culture appreciated (searching this tag specifically is actually what let me find it. top of the list when sorting by hits)
uh, if you're a fan of jinn and/or skywalker tho, this may not be the fic for you. not bashing! critical, at most. mostly critical of jinn because he's the adult, but this isn't the ani you see in tcw or other sw fics. just a kid going through a tough time and lashing out cs of it. skywalker gets his happy ending off screen tho. presumably.

careless to let it all fall is a MARVEL. genuinely got addicted to it, i love it sm. definitely worth a reread.
i am gonna.. actually sleep now tho. this fic has messed up my sleep schedule. not that i mind, lol.
