Sep. 22nd, 2023 04:38 amme: what if I worked in some Tatooine headcanons into the aasimar fic? mAYBE. at least Anakin comes from this enslaved diasporic people and is fiercely proud of them and of being one of them, esp when people reduce him to his aasimarness (which happens. a lot.)
me: part of me wants Anakin to be a woman, though. and maybe more of the Jedi. maybe ALL the Jedi. WARRIOR NUNS IN SPACE
me: and what if it’s like that old AU idea I had where Palpatine subverts the Jedi instead of slaughtering them outright, and the Empire is generally … like, still bad but less obvious about it. it’d have this sort of patina of sunny pseudo-utopia
me: AND what if Padmé actually didn’t die but escaped with Luke, and lived long enough to gently break the truth of Anakin’s fall to him and he knows but doesn’t tell anyone, including Han
me: who is somehow the POV character for everything
me: …this is an original fic, isn’t it
[ETA 9/22/2023: It very much is and grew into this sprawling universe from this point over the last three years.]
