anghraine: leia looking anxiously away in esb (leia [anxious])


I finished recording The Imperial Menace, the sequel to my f!Luke AU, The Adventures of Lucy Skywalker. It’s all uploaded here. The recording matches the AO3 version here, also slightly cleaned up from the original.

Again, I don’t expect most people to be into this, but stuff to know if you are:
  • It resolves the cliffhanger at the end of Adventures, then ends on another one.
  • It runs parallel to the end of ANH and most of ESB.
  • It was first written in 2012 on a schedule, and ran into some difficulties, which is why it’s shorter and more erratic than Adventures.
  • As with Adventures, it’s based on the films and (where possible) the scripts, but not expanded universes past or present, official statements, etc.
  • Also as with Adventures, it assumes that the extreme male domination of the OT reflects in-world misogyny and patriarchy.
  • The page can take a few seconds longer than most to load.
Also, if you want to read this without reading The Adventures of Lucy Skywalker, that's mostly doable, but there is one major consequence in Adventures you'll need to know about. Cutting for the spoiler:

Ten-year-old spoiler within! )

I really need something to distract me from my country's politics, so: trying to correctly format the last part here. Kind of weird to be done already - it felt so much longer when I was writing!

Also, the entire fic is at AO3 here.

Aaaaand, back to Star Wars. And eep, nearly done with this! It felt much longer when I was writing . :P

I had my first day of stats today. I have trouble hearing the prof or reading her handwriting, and I've forgotten just about everything from the prereq course, which I took TWO YEARS ago. Also, for some reason the sun turned a neon orange-red this morning. Second thought: 'what a strange atmospheric effect!' First thought: 'OMG WE'RE CHARN.'

Anyway, this chapter took ages to write, mostly because a good chunk of it comes straight from scenes that were actually filmed. One's a cut scene, but the rest (one pretty infamously) remain in the final cut.

Ugh, my classes start tomorrow, and I'm hoping to get into a fourth one before then. I like psychology, but three psych classes is ... eh.

Ugh, I submitted a story for publication. I'm pretty certain it won't be accepted (it's bizarre flash fiction and frankly not that good), but ... we'll see, I guess. I do have a massive quantity of unfinished original fiction to tinker with (basically just like my fanfic WIP pile, only FAR FAR MORE). Anyway, this chapter: some of you may have noticed that Wedge takes up Luke's roles in a couple of places, not just Lucy. This ends up having ... actual consequences. I was terribly excited! (Look, Ma! A change! Ooh, should I kill someone?)

Vacation is awesome! I have to go crawling to the psychology department about financial aid, though. Ugh.

I meant to spend all day writing. Instead, I spent all day playing GW2. Most addictive game ever.

So I finished the Lucy sequel (oh right, it has a title now) a few days ago. Whew. So I'm going to try and post it over here relatively consistently, like I did for the original and Revenge last year.
