      Anakin had been fairly quiet on the ride back to Naboo, to escort Senator Amidala home.  Why he was even referring to her as Senator Amidala in his head was beyond him. She was Padme. ​She had been Padme, since he was a boy, when she was letting her decoy be Queen, and she was playing the role of handmaiden. But, that was so long ago.  They had been through so much together, recently.  He had been tasked to protect her from being killed.  She had been there for him, when his mother died, and they had faced death together in that arena in Geonosis.  He would never forget her words, before they went into that arena.  “I truly, deeply love you.”   After that, everything had turned to chaos.  There was the arena, the battle, the fight with Dooku, which cost him his arm.  He sat here now, slightly flexing it, able to feel some sensations, but they had said he’d feel more, over time

     Once they arrived back at the lake house in Varykino, he saw her start to grab her luggage and he stopped her.  “I can still carry luggage, milady.”  He didn’t know why he was being so formal, again. Maybe it was because, he was worried that it had all been a dream, that she didn’t really love him.  She had fallen asleep on the ride back here, and this was the first time they were actually alone, other then Threepio and R2, of course.  Taking them up to her room, he was about to put his own in the guest room, when he saw her, a vision of beauty always.

      “You are so beautiful. I’m just going to put my bag in the other room and you’d like to be alone, just tell me. I don’t know where we stand after the other day. My missing arm kind of derailed us.”

    *    @lethalwound​​​​    —    NOW  BEFORE  I  SAY  ANYTHING,  PROMISE  ME  YOU’LL  STAY  CALM    (   leia  &  anakin   ) 

THAT’S   NEVER   A   GOOD   WAY   TO   START.         leia   is   more   like   anakin   than   padmé,   but   she   has   her   moments   when   all   anakin   sees   and   hears   is   her   mother.      now   is   certainly   one   of   those   moments,   when   she   is   all   diplomacy   and   hedging   her   bets   and   careful   treading   and   speaking.   

anakin   takes   a   deep   breath   in,   then   out,   gripping   his   soldering   iron   so   tightly   in   his   mechanical   hand   that   there’s   a   possibility   he’ll   break   it.            “      i   promise,      ”            he   replies   finally,   looking   down   into   his   daughter’s   brown   eyes.            “      what’s   wrong?      ”            if   anyone   has   hurt   her   .   .   .

“You   know   I   don’t   like   politics.”   A   mild   reminder   with   a   faint   incline   of   the   head,   but   Luke   really   wanted   to   whine.   It   was   only   @lethalwound​   in   the   room   with   him,   Leia   who   knew   him   better   than   perhaps   anyone   living   in   the   galaxy   at   this   point,   and   she’d   born   witness   to   more   embarrassing   and   un-Jedi   like   behavior   than   Luke   whining.  

Instead   he   drew   in   a   breath   and   laced   his   hands   together,   the   perfect   image   of   a   reasonable   and   unflappable   Jedi   and   not   at   all   a   man   that   was   bordering   on   accusing   his   sibling   of   being   unfair   like   a   child.   “Besides,   one   of   the   failures   of   the   Order   before   was   they   failed   to   keep   neutral.   I   don’t   want   to   rebuild   something   only   to   immediately   make   the   same   mistakes.”

❝ you’re not protective, you’re overbearing. ❞ ( from leia, pls )

sibling starters | accepting | @lethalwound

"I'm not being overbearing. I did not make this decision."

He is rubbing at his temples, fighting off an impending migraine the best he can. It isn't him that isn't allowing her to go on this mission. He may be a general for the Rebel Alliance, but he wasn't the one running things. He cannot believe he is the one about to tell her what he says next.

"Princess, our actions have consequences. And your consequence is being barred from missions. This isn't my doing. I am just carrying out an order. Trust me, I don't think you went too far." He would have gone farther if it were him. Leia was so similar to him in some ways, but her mother always shown through.

"And...so what if I am overbearing? I'm your father, Leia. I'm going to be."

there was such a precious few that escaped that subjugation of the inhibitor chip . omega could count the amount she knew on her hands . so when captured by clone troopers , thrown into a cold and wide brig awaiting transport to kamino , she can’t bring herself to hold it against them . this cell is nothing like the one she once found herself similarly trapped in on her home planet ; no , this one was BUILT for prisoners . built for FUGITIVES and TRAITORS . all of which they believed her to be . 

this time there is no weak wall for wrecker to break , as well as no wrecker to break it . brown eyes had scoured the walls and bars more than twenty times in search of some escape . once failing to find any for the twenty - first time , omega’s resolve gives . tears prick at the corners of her eyes and finally she lets herself crumple in the corner of the cell , curling around herself for her only warmth and protection . she doesn’t blame them for any of this . she really DOESN’T . but stars , it was hard  for her to not take it PERSONALLY . all her years yearning to be among the other clones led up to this . 

❝ it’s not  their fault , ❞ omega mutters more to herself than to the clone stationed to guard her , hands roughly rubbing at her eyes , ❝ it’s your fault . ❞

@lethalwound​ asked: “sir, the pony rides are for children only.” ( from ct8467 )

The 501st was on leave, or at least as well as they could be this far away from Coruscant. Anakin had stumbled upon what looked to be a local festival, complete with rides and games and stalls selling all kinds of things. He had gleefully charged forward to investigate, followed by several squads of his men.

Towards one edge of the festival, there were several pins containing livestock, most just for petting or for show, but there was one with several pony's tied in a circle around a pole. He almost vibrated with excitement, running towards them, acting just like the other kids that were doing the same, only with parents following them instead of various clones, most of which had broken off to go exploring.

He blinked, turning his head to look over at the one standing next to him. He smiled sheepishly, glancing around to make sure a specific someone wasn't within earshot. "I won't tell Rex if you don't."

@lethalwound​ liked for ahsoka

becoming one with the force had allowed him to revisit those with the force who needed guidance.  but even after death he still didn’t quite fall in line with what he’s supposed to do.  he was able to locate her quite easily considering their connection many years ago.

the connection between master and padawan.  the connection of those who became as close as siblings.  he watched over her for a little while, admittedly proud of her.  proud of who she’s grown into, what she’s done.  

he finally appears before her, ghostly figure looking almost the same as the last she saw him as himself and not the monster he’d become.  but that curl of his lips hadn’t changed at all.         ❝  hey, snips.  ❞
