(i don't know much about star wars so this may be phrased clunkily)
for my girlfriend, could i please request some cg!anakin x little!y/n headcanons from... the time period when he's evil but not darth vader yet? with burgundy/dark red featuring prominently in the header picture / any other images please :3
of course! i took the liberty to set some of this in an au where he never got the suit (but is still vader, hence why vader and anakin are both used as names), enjoy!:
Caregiver!(Suitless Vader) Anakin Skywalker Headcanons ₊˚⊹♡
during order 66, he found you at the temple, hiding in his room. he had broken off from the troopers, knowing he couldn't let them get to you, he couldn't let you die. when he walked in and found you, you were regressed and absolutely terrified. you had sensed his fall, and although it was to save you, you were scared, scared of the man you sensed he had become. but when he laid his lightsaber in front of you, showing you he meant no harm, you felt soothed, almost, and hesitantly crawled into his arms, and he held you tighter than he ever had
he loves having you in his lap while sitting on his throne on mustafar. whether he's on a call, having visitors, or simply just sitting, he feels empty if you're not with him. you love to look out through the windows at the lava and ships passing by, and vader loves to play hologames with you. often when people come in, they'll see him on his throne with his princess asleep in his lap, snuggling with your favorite blankie
whenever you feel scared or frightened, you seek solace under his cape, wrapping it around yourself or even hiding under it. while carrying you, he'll wrap it around you, carrying you like the most precious thing in existence
during the early days of your turn to the dark side, you were very unstable, prone to meltdowns and tantrums, especially once you moved into your new home on mustafar. anakin was very considerate and patient, despite having become a sith lord. he was still your ani, and he continued to be, being the same man who loves and cherishes you. he continues to bring you flowers whenever you're sad, snuggle you throughout the night, whisper reassurances when you're struggling, he's still your ani, the man you love, as you are still his princess, his precious star
one of the honorifics you call him is "my lord". youre not sure why, you're not required to address him by his title given your status as his partner, you just did it one day and it brought you comfort. vader certainly has no problem with it, he finds it adorable and loves it when you call him that. it's practically your cg name for him, and both of you love it
both at the fortress on mustafar and on the executor, there's a special little room just for you, filled with stuffies, toys, pacis, games, anything you could possibly need to cheer you up, calm you down, or simply entertain you. it's hidden so no one could disturb you, and sometimes while anakin is away at meetings, he'll come back to find you curled up in a pile of stuffies, fast asleep with your favorite paci in your mouth. your cg calls it the 'princess room', and he loves surprising you by adding new items for you to find each time you go in there
