can't stop thinking abt emperor obi-wan fic what's obi-wan's reaction to the food cooked in tatooine? does anakin cook something for him?

Omg long time no chat!! And I was JUST thinking about this fic earlier today so you have impeccable timing!!

I think Obi-Wan in this fic is relatively well traveled so he doesn't think the food is TOO unusual. It's all new, but within the boundaries of what he expects. He thinks it's a little strange that they eat meat with every meal until he remembers that a good chunk of Tatooine is a literal desert and it's a lot easier for them to hunt than farm.

And yes, Anakin will get the chance to cook for him! I'm actually planning for that to be part of the next chapter. Not while they're in Tatooine, but on the way back home.

Anakin's challenge that he's set himself is to hunt and forage for the food and cook it with whatever he's got on hand. The symbolism he's trying to deliver there is basically a promise that he'll always try to make the most of what he and Obi-Wan have, and that he'll always share his skills and resources when Obi-Wan needs them (and then they both think it's an awful shame they don't have access to a real bed and everyone would know if they had sex in their tent)

Hi bestie, if somebody's trying to tame a wild dragon, say a young Spanish Redbottom, what would you recommend the best way to start?? Also the fire breath is kinda destroying my home so um what can I do apart from shifting to a new house every week....?

I would say

1) first install a "clothing lock," which contains all of your clothing and prevents you from getting out of it, thereby making you easier to catch

2) establish a dialogue with the dragon, make it feel like you're trying to understand what it wants, and hope it decides to stop when it feels like you've communicated enough

hiii idk if you’re still into star wars anymore (if you aren’t i hope this isn’t a bother to you) but i simply had to to tell you that i love your fics just so much!! infinitely varied is one of my top re reads, i love the domesticity of obikin, and emperor luke is as close to my heart as a fic gets! i loved the way you wrote devoted, it felt like a poem, i really admire your writing style and i hope ur day goes well <3

Aah it’s of course not a bother! I’m not really into SW anymore (fandom burnout is one hell of a trip) , but I’m happy to hear my stories mean so much to you! Especially devoted, as I wrote that one with one foot out of the fandom and thus have very ambiguous feelings towards it.

Thank you!

Hi rex!! i loved the housewarming scene in 50 shades!! Loved the arc just before that too- the breathplay one. It was so well written, and I think reading scenes where a safeword is used is a guilty pleasure of mine, cause it kinda lends safety to the scene(dunno if I'm making sense), but its like the control is thrust back to the person subbing, and the aftercare is sooo sweet and full of fluff! That being said, I really don't know why George Michael's songs remind me so much of Anakin, The Strangest Thing is hauntingly Anakin, for your playlist. If I squint I almost imagine it to be Ani singing it! Love you <3 stay safe bestie <33

Hello! 💗

I'm so glad you liked both of those scenes so much! Thank you! I think reading that kind of stuff can definitely be comforting to read! It emphasizes consent, control, and safety. I personally think it feels reassuring to read a scene where things go wrong and everything still works out okay.

And that's a great song for the playlist!! Added!

im rereading their fragrance comes from you (can you tell haha) and pls tell me anakin completed the wedding rituals with obi-wan and vica versa. pls. pls tell me anakin puts his handrint on the wall beside obi's

OK I'm sorry this took me forever to answer, I had to go post-diving to find what I needed to link below.

Short answer: No, Anakin totally did not complete all of Obi-Wan's wedding rituals and Obi-Wan takes that extremely personally (see chapter 4)

Long answer: He didn't, but he IS going to learn what is up with the handprints and feel Regret™️. And it will get addressed, like, eventually. They have a lot more going on in the meantime but I have a whole plan for them to get remarried at the very end of the fic and get to do aaaall the things they didn't do before, including putting those handprints up on the wall

Bestieee 42 and 75 for the ask game please 💜💜

Thank you!!! 💙💙💙 (for this ask game)

42. What’s your favorite title that you’ve come up with?

All my titles are pulled from something, either song lyrics, poetry or common phrases that I have repurposed. I'm happy with most of them (although the accent in à la carte has slightly ruined my life because now I can't stop noticing how many restaurants aren't including it, I swear I'm using the accent correctly, I've double checked like 15 times by now--)

I think I like The Devil's in the Details best. It's cute and snappy and I think it sets the tone of the story! It's not just about demon sex, it's about the minutiae of their relationship and their lives together.

75. Is there a particular fic that readers gravitated towards that you didn’t expect?

Definitely Out of the Bag which is my catboy Anakin fic. I enjoy adorable catboy Anakin as much as anyone (perhaps more!) but there isn't even any explicit smut! Maybe the lesson here is that catboy Anakin doesn't need to be railed (although it wouldn't hurt) but he does need to be cuddled and spoiled and told he's pretty.

baby im back again from rereading your nyanakin fic(its so cute??) and i think ao3 changed the rules on collections sometimes back maybe? so no reader can invite fics to collections until the author changes the particular setting... if it's not too much trouble to ask could you alter that please? <3 i dont even mind if you don't accept the request for a collection (i use the collections as a second set of bookmarks tbh ad i can see the invited works in the settings soooo) lots of love bestie 💖💖

Hello!!! First, thank you 💙 (one day I'll write the sequel to that fic...) and second, you are absolutely correct and I will happily change that! I'm answering this ask publicly in case anyone else has had the setting changed on them, or possibly to reveal that I am extremely dumb and accidentally turned it off myself and poor ao3 did nothing wrong (it would not be out of character for me).

I don't think I'd ever mind being added to a collection unless it's something mean (fics that are dumb and bad) or it's a collection that wildly mischaracterizes what I was aiming for (fics where obi-wan and anakin hate each other) so please go right ahead. I never thought of using collections as bookmarks but that's smart. I'm barely using bookmarks now and instead rely on my faulty memory to retrieve my favourites so I encourage any system that helps me find great stuff to read!
