i am craving this rexwalker dynamic where anakin is so obviously in love with rex like literally any person who sees them together immediately gets so fucking uncomfortable because anakin is like. not even looking at some sith he's fighting because he's fucking staring and violently drooling over his captain. he's making that low slutty man voice when rex is around. when rex is reporting about their mission anakin is not even trying to pretend he's listening his head's on rex's shoulder and his arms are wrapped around rex's waist and every other clone in 501st and ahsoka are like God Please Help Me To Get Through Another Day Of This Shit.
and the funniest part of it is that rex is absolutely oblivious. tup comes to him and goes like please do something about your skywalker boyfriend he's arranging rat fights on board again fives and hardcase have already lost all their credits to him and commander tano and rex's like my who?? me and general skywalker are nothing but colleagues. and obviously he's so fucking in love with anakin too but he's being so humble so silent about it he would Die but won't let anyone find out how he feels about anakin because he thinks that general let him get too close to him anyway and he's honored to be his battlefield friend and the last thing rex would want is to ruin this connection
so it's like
rex with anakin who sank his teeth into his leg and is being dragged across the floor after him: i wonder if me and general skywalker will ever be something more then brothers in armsđđââ
This just in: Vaderkin believes that all red-heads are related
Anakin: Ahsoka, pay no attention to them. The worst you can do to them is act like they don't exist.
Ahsoka, disappointed that she can't bite them: Yes, master.
-
Obi-Wan: Anakin, think. This isn't how Jedi behave.
Anakin, reluctantly relinquishing his grasp on his opponent's jugular: Yes, master.
_
Qui-Gon Jinn: Excuse me- do you think you can say that to MY PADAWAN?
Obi-Wan: Master, no.
-
Dooku, handing Qui a knife: Defend your honour.
Qui-Gon, shaking: I don't think this is how Jedi-
Dooku: I want no excuses.
-
Master Yoda, steadily pushing Dooku forward like he has wheels: MAKE HIM BLEED, YOU WLL
Dooku: MASTER NO
Yoda: A WUSS, A JEDI IS NOT
Sifo-Dyas, scrambling forwards: NO!!
Been thinking about Piett casually (and constantly) refering to Vader as "my husband" and people who don't know who the husband in question is are "ah sweet a loving couple" and those who do know are s w e a t i n g
Iâm imagining a new-hire aid that comes in a couple decades after RotJ when the New Republic is well established. Sure Vader and Piett are in the news occasionally but itâs feasible to miss, and aid was wee bebe when the d r a m a happened so they have no idea.
So the aidâs just doing their job their bestest, and Piett is nice, and the aid canât figure out why some of their coworkers seem a little scared of him (???) or, like, a lot scared of him and avoid him (??!!!??!).Â
Like 5 months later theyâre popping into his office to drop something off and thereâs this 7 foot tall fire-breathing-dragon of a man there and OH. OH. âMY HUSBAND THISâ AND âMY HUSBAND THATâ. RIGHT. SHIT.
Piett:Â â...You alright-- Aid:Â âHereyouarePiettsirâ -sets papers on desk and scurries away- Vader: ... Piett: ... Vader: -turns to frown at Piett- Piett: ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ
Was up till 3am sketching. Here's some of those.
I never did go to bed. Sorry Piett.
Things that Tim Drake has definitely said
â
Tim: god let me live to see another day, but that will be a choice he will soon regret
â
Tim: okay but what about the canons I had planned?
â
Tim: okay why am in trouble? Because im up at 8AM? Really? Why is that so weird? No I didnât sleep why would I do that ??
â
Tim: I think I deserve a medal for being this awesome
â
Tim: me? Dying? Thatâs just cringe, you wonât see me lacking
â
Tim: when was the last time I slept? When was the last you said âI love youâ to your kids? Mm?
Tim's Birthday, he's about to open Bruce's gift
Tim, dead stare at Bruce: If there is any form of hologram in here, I am killing everyone in Gotham, including myself
Bruce, terrified: Oh..., uh, well good thing there's not
Tim: Are you sure?
Bruce: Yes
Tim, opening the present: Oh, a new camera. Neat.
Everyone:
Tim:
Everyone:
Jason: Okay, what the fuck was that about
Tim: He knows what he did.
Kon: Tim...remember your principles...
Tim: I don't have principles, Batman has principles, and I follow them because I have daddy issues.
Kon: Then, remember Batman's principles..?
Tim: Man, fuck Batman!
Tim, holding a crowbar: Yknow, Joker, there are infinite realities where you're already dead, where you never existed? An infinity of times you were good, or kind, or caring. There's even times you were a symbol of joy for all children, instead of a vicious monster that deserves nothing but the worst.
Joker: . .uh, infinities a pretty big number, you sure it's not like...10 or something?
Tim: Yeah, it is a big number. Have you ever seen infinity of something? Do you think if you ever got the chance to see it you would even be able to comprehend it? I can see infinity stacked on top of infinity an infinite number of times. Could your infinitely small mind ever dream to comprehend something even close to that?
Joker: Do you have a fucking fever or something?
Joker: Do-do I need to call the bat? Are you even supposed to fighting right now??? What is happening, are you even lucid? Am I lucid? Did I take an acid and forget???
Joker: Which one of us has a concussion bc one of us has gotta
Random crook being interogated: I'm not scared of you! Everyone knows the bats don't kill, do whatever you want, I'm not talkin'!
Tim, aka red robin: Do you know why people are scared of batman? *holds up some sort of torture weapon* because, sometimes, Death is a mercy.
Crook:.......
Tim: death stare
Crook: ....
Tim: death stare
Crook: ..
Tim:
Crook:
Crook: I will tell you literally anything
Tim, suddenly brighter and no longer terrifying: Welp! That was easy!
Tim: If I got dipped in the Lazarus pit, it would be over for you guys.
Damian: I highly doubt that.
Tim: You would be the first to go.
Dick:
Dick: Tim, what do you mean by 'go'...
Tim:
Dick: TIM WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY GO
Dick: If you could kill one person, who would you choose?
Tim, no hesitation: Ra's al ghul
Damian: Oh, please. Like you would even be capable of-
Tim: There is a reason that man wants me on his side so bad.
Tim, laying out a very detailed plan
Jason, bored and being dramatic- Silencio Timbo!
Tim- Yeah, you're going to let me finish what I was saying or I'm going to make sure Roy is VERY familiar with some VERY embarrassing photos from your Robin days
Jason- Ha! Nice try. Babs has already shown him all my best failures from our old surveillance footage
Tim- Keyword there being 'surveillance'
Jason- What?
Tim, pointing at himself- Jay, I'm your former stalker. I've got evidence of more dumb shit that you've done than even Batman knows about
Jason- Uhh, like what
Tim- Keep interrupting me and you'll find out. Via Roy
Jason- ...
Tim, miming a camera- Click, click motherfucker. Now get to work
Loyalty was a trait Janet Drake respected above all others.
It can give you power, fame, money to have someone's loyalty was to have their life.
Tim has always given his all. His people whatever they need they have. May it be his mind, his skills, or even his weapons.
If Dick Grayson demanded the shirt off his back he would remain naked till the end of his days.
Very few times has anyone actually used it the first to test it was Jason.
"Hey Jay.. What's up you never call?"
Tim's phone is always ringing from Wayne Enterprises to his assorted friends he can't remember it being silent. Yet the shock when HighWay to Hell started blaring almost sent him into cardiac arrest.
"Need a favor. Think you could meet me at that safe house you keep pretending not to break into?"
"Yah no problem also it's not breaking in when you leave the window unlocked. Give me ten."
~
Jason doesn't do favors. He would rather die again than ever ask for shit.
When it comes to Tim though he's not an idiot. During his return to Gotham he researched, knew everything about him from his favorite color to when he fucking peed.
Part of his research specifically including who trained the third Robin. Nevermind that watching the kid fight for more than ten minutes gives it away.
Lady Shiva, Ra's just to name a few. He moves almost exactly the same as Cass. Hides in the shadows better than Damian. The whole creepy debacle with Mr. Old as Fuck just furthered Jason hypothesis.
Baby Bird, Bruce's prized protege isn't none lethal.
"I need you to kill someone."
~
Tim in the back of his mind expected it.
Jason for all he is exactly like Bruce doesn't respond the same. To him protection is blood soaked, a knife to the throat is a greeting. Kindess was shrouded and wasn't offered without losing a part of yourself.
"Joker I'm assuming?"
~
He expected a bit of a fight maybe a lecture at least for him to pretend, not whatever it is Replacement is doing.
"He hasn't broken out of Arkham in months haven't heard shit and I hear your in the same business as me nowadays. What you say about helping a brother out?"
~
He wonders if Jason is aware of how his voice cracked. The pleading that was heard the unspoken because I can't. Tim couldn't imagine looking Jason in the eye and saying no. Watching your son bend and demanding he break.
"Hate to burst your bubble, but I already did, I know you think the worst of me but I wasn't gonna let your murderer keep kicking his feet."
He tosses the drive he's been sitting on almost three months before heading back to the window.
"I know we got our shit Jay but your my brother. This is something you needed to be able to sleep at night. You shouldn't feel like you have to beg. I honestly thought you had known and didn't want to acknowledge it."
~
Jason can't breathe as he shuts his computer. Thirty hours of torture his baby brother broke the Joker in ways that turned his stomach.
He climbs into bed his eyes shutting sleeping without a nightmare for the first time in years.
He can't ever repay Tim nothing will ever be enough but he is gonna do everything to try.
He wonders if Ra's might need the same treatment?
After Bruce gets lost in the time stream and comes back Tim throws out the âno kill rule.â For one person and one person only.
Raâs is creepy, everyone k owns this but no one knows this more than Tim. The guys like an annoying mosquito that wonât die because heâs a pseudo immortal who either wants to adopt him or likeâŚmarry him into the family.
Either way, Tim leaves the assassins alone. Usually sends them back with a little bow or something. But whenever Raâs shows up himself itâs on sight. Doesnât matter if itâs in civilian form or vigilanti form. Raâs is the only person Tim gives no shots about killing.
One time he was helping Jason with a case in Crime alley when Raâs showed up. Without a word and barely looking up, he grabs the one gun Jason has that always has live rounds and shoots Raâs in the head. He hit his shoulder cause the fucker is fast for a centuries old man, but he still forcefully dragged away by an assassin who is just used to this shit by now.
Tim was explaining something to Jason and barely missed a beat and Jason just keeps looking at his brother and where Raâs had just been.
âThe fuck?â
âI didnât kill him this time and I told him to leave me alone this week.â That obviously not what Jason was asking about but still.
Somewhere in the cave or in Timâs space is a kill count. Where he lists how many times heâs managed to kill, fatally injure, or injure Raâsâ
Itâs a concern when the family finds it needless to say.
Luke laughs, throwing his head back. Cast plops down beside him, flower crown in hand. âYour highness,â the brunette chirps. Lukeâs laugh dies into a giggle as he takes the crown and gently sets itself on his own head.
Neither acknowledge the way that Casrâs eyes shine an eerie gold or how Lukeâs shoes are stained with dried blood. Theyâve both learned better than to ask when on this planet, surrounded by fields, trees, and lakes.
âMay the stars guide your path, Lukka,â Cast says quietly, hours later when he stands.
âAnd May the Force be with you, Castian,â Luke replies, watching the Fallen disappear into the tree line.
Headcanon for the Batkids:
Steph: So, which one of you is dick's favorite?
Jason and Damian, at the same time: Me.
Jason: Excuse you Demon, why the hell do you think youâre his favorite?
Damian: I was his Robin not long ago, remember? We had grown quite close as partners and brothers.
Jason: Yeah, well I was his first brother. If not for me he wouldnât have known what to do with one.
Jason and Damian continue to argue:
Duke: She knows it's Tim, right?
Cass: She knows.
Bonus:
Tim, just existing:
Dick: I would kill for you.
Tim: *sighs* I know, Dick.
Dick: Just say the word, and Iâll do it.
Tim: I know, Dick.
Din talking to himself as he hauls an unconscious Luke over his shoulder and jiggles a bag of candy for the foundlings to follow him: It's not kidnapping if you're taking the whole family. This isn't breaking intergalactic laws. You're a great Dad and soon to be a great husband once Luke wakes up. You're not breaking any laws.
Din, tucking Luke in as he gets the new foundlings to their amazing rooms and then getting their wedding vows ready: It's just a little bend of the law. We're all good. Just a tiny bump at the start of our marriage--he'll be fine with it. I am gonna be SUCH a good husband.
Luke refuses to have a brain-to-mouth filter for the sheer fact if you try to come at him for his alarmingly high level of weird, dumbass, queer-coded sass, he can straight-up fucking juggle you in front of your peers.
Paz: *demonstrating his complete lack of knowledge on a subject*
Luke: I hope youâre attractive under that helmet because no one is going to marry you for your intelligence
Din, sweet, dearly beloved himbo: That man could roast me into oblivion on our wedding night and for every day after and I would thank him
DinLuke Ficlet: Outsider Perspective
It was, in hindsight, perhaps a poor idea to suggest to the Jetti that he couldnât handle a Mandalorian in combat without force-pushing them. Paz realized this a little late, his feet sailing over his head, back smacking against the training hallâs wall with a solid, painful âthud.â

Accidental rizz my beloved
I think this is my favorite Star Wars trope⌠maybe just because sw is a tragedy and i want the characters to be happy.. maybe because Iâm a sucker for the âreveal momentâ⌠i donât know.
Hopefully you all enjoy these as well!

Back From the Future: Episode VI The Clone Wars by Ariel_Sojourner
âIn which Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader travel back in time together to the Clone Wars era, have amazing adventures, and save the galaxy.â
Basically, Luke and Vader time travel and take over a clone battalion to change the major battles of the war. This is. A masterpiece. Itâs insane. It feels like an actual, published story when you read it. It is told in a nonlinear way, so if youâre not into that, you probably wonât enjoy this. But I promise itâs one of the greatest fanfictions Iâve ever read, and thereâs a reason itâs first on this list.
(Padme/Anakin and Obi-Wan/Satine, though neither ship is a focal point of the story)

there but for the grace of god by wanderlove
âThereâs nothing particularly remarkable about Sullust.
Well, except for Obi-Wanâs time-traveling son. But, you know. Apart from that.â
I LOVE this fic. Young Luke is sent into the clone wars, and since heâs been raised by Obi-Wan on Tatooine, everyone assumes that heâs Obiâs kid. His appearance changes everything by causing the people around him to reveal deep secrets that would otherwise have led to the fall of the Jedi.
(Padme/Anakin and referenced Obi-Wan/Satine)

Old Masters, New Tricks by soft_but_gremlin
âSixteen-year-old Obi-Wan Kenobi finds himself on Lothal in the middle of the Imperial Era. He has no idea why he's here or what all these white-clad troopers are for, but after a rocky start with a little Mandalorian, he finds out that his friend Luminara is in trouble and vows to rescue her.
Sabine Wren has no idea what this other Mandalorian is doing on Lothal, but he looks just like former rebel Korkie Kryze and he's got lightsabers on his belt. He's either going to be a fierce but foolish ally, or the Empire's paying bounty hunters to track down Jedi.â
One of the few SW fics Iâve read where characters are sent FORWARD in time! This one is really great, and I reread it all the time. The heartache Obi-Wan feels when he remembers that all his friends are dead and the heartache KANAN feels when Obi-Wan does something that reminds him of the JediâŚ. Amazing.

Free Jedi to Good Home by soft_but_gremlin
âJango Fett expected several things from this hunt on Galidraan. Three hypothermic Jedi children stumbling into his camp was not one of those things.â
Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka (and maybe a few others, later on đ) are sent back in time to change the outcome of the massacre at Galidraan. This one is REALLY great and I especially love the sequel (which is currently unfinished but very suspenseful and exciting)

The Making of Mavericks by AppoApples
âMaster Obi-Wan Kenobi couldn't let her just walk out into the galaxy without a lifeline. With Commander Cody and Captain Rex at his side, Obi-Wan tries to give Ahsoka some well meant advice. But the Force was listening and decided these four souls needed to blaze a better path. With all that has happened to them, waking up twenty-five years in the past shouldn't be a big deal, right?â
Time travel with Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Rex, AND Cody! FOUR people. Crazy. The classic âObi-Wan is sent back to his childhood to change things before Anakin ever enters the pictureâ fic. It greatly surpassed my expectations for a time travel fic though! One of the best for sure.

Legacy by myrlendi (thehistorygeek)
âThree months after the Battle of Endor, Luke Skywalker goes in search of a rumoured Jedi temple in a secluded part of the Mid Rim. He finds within the temple nothing but a strange artifact, which unexpectedly brings him much closer to the Jedi of old than he ever thought he would be.
When Luke fails to return from his mission, Leia goes after him, retracing his steps to the ancient temple â and to the past, to the time of the Clone Wars and the waning years of the Old Republic. Under suspicion by the Jedi Order, the twins struggle to find a way back to their own time while trying to keep their knowledge of the future from affecting the past.â
Okay, time travel with Luke Skywalker is great (one of my favorite things!), but time travel with Luke AND Leia??? Perfect. I love when sheâs included.. it usually leads to some very interesting interactions between her and Anakin.

Luminous We Are by AppoApples
âMaster Obi-Wan Kenobi is filled with regrets when the Padawan he chooses is assigned to Anakin. When he discovers that it was Yoda's meddling that had prevented him from being a Padawan in his own youth, the betrayal runs deep. Wondering what could have been, a trick of the Force throws him back in time, where he learns to put his trust in the Force, not the High Council.
Redemption of Qui-Gon Jinn had he not been forced to take a Padawan before he was ready, and where the Order learns to take another course that put quite a wrench in the Sith plans. Start of the Clone Wars to 44BBY AU of the Apprentice books. Cheeky Obi-Wan and Mandalorian shenanigans.â
Obi-Wan Kenobi being adopted by Mandalorians is QUITE a popular trope in this fandom for some reason⌠I think itâs actually a tag on Ao3 now (donât quote me on that). Anyway, this fic is one of the few where the time traveler is unable to rely on (very much of) their knowledge from the future.
(Obi-Wan/Quinlan)

The Kenobi Scandal by AppoApples
âOne moment they are speeding on their way to Mos Eisley, only to be hit by a Force instigated sandstorm, and the next thing Ben Kenobi knows is he wearing his old armour with the Jedi insignia and Luke can't find the droids. What's a Jedi to do when he finds himself back before the fall of the Republic? Come up with a cover story more scandalous than time travel: âLuke, this is Anakin Skywalker. Anakin, this is my son, Luke Kenobi.ââ
Amazing! I really like when we see the potential Luke has with some formal Jedi training. And although there is a cover story for Lukeâs (and Obi-Wanâs, technically) time travel, there are still some lovely emotional outbursts :)
(Obi-Wan/Satine and Luke/Ahsoka)

Gone Are The Days by theycallmesuperboy
âWhile investigating an ancient Jedi distress signal in the Outer Rim, Luke Skywalker and Wedge Antilles are mysteriously sent back in time to the last days of the Republic, and stranded on Naboo, meeting two people Luke could only have ever dreamed of meeting: his parents.
Only, due to Luke's "quick thinking," the two are lead to believe that Luke and Wedge are just like them: a secretly married couple, due to Luke's status as a Jedi.â
Luke gets an opportunity to really get to know his dead parents, and Wedge gets to kiss Luke. Iâm a sucker for the fake dating trope lmao, and combined with time travel? Zoo wee mama!
(Luke/Wedge and Padme/Anakin)

Significant Brain Damage by AppoApples
âLuke Skywalker finds himself in the past as Anakin Skywalker. Obi-Wan finds himself retraining his old apprentice who has permanent amnesia while also taking on Anakin's Padawan, being a General, a Council member -during a Galactic Civil War, and fighting for a Republic he's beginning to lose faith in. Clone Wars, no paradox, no easy fix it.â
I love this one so much. Luke has to kind of pretend to be Anakin.. but everyone around him just thinks heâs had some amnesia and a major personality change. I LIVE for the âwhy is Anakin so much nicer nowâ moments.
(Padme/Sabe and Obi-Wan/Satine)
Also you may notice that this is the FOURTH fic by AppoApples on this list⌠I love their ideas so much.

May Death Find You Alive by Must_Be_Thursday
âAnakin finds himself trapped in a nightmare, reliving the same day. He tries. He tries to change things, but it always ends the same.
With a broken bond and a dead best friend.
He's not sure how many times he'll be able to watch the life leave Obi-Wan before he loses his mind.â
Letâs switch it up! Groundhog Day style time loops are always fun, and this one saves the universe! So yay! Fr though, Anakin learns to trust Obi-Wan and it changes everything.

The More I Live The More I See This Life is Not About Me by K_R_Closson
âAfter touching a mysterious artifact, Cody's general is suddenly a child with the memories to match. Cody has to coax a suspicious adolescent back to base without alerting the nearby Separatists of their presence.
Reversing his general's age an easier fix than Cody thought it would be, but he didn't factor in the possibility that Obi-Wan might not want to give up his self in order to become General Kenobi again. It'd be easier to think if he didn't have an insidious voice in his head, whispering to him to distrust the Jedi.â
This one is technically just de-aging, with Obi-Wan becoming his thirteen year old self, but I consider it similar enough to time travel to be included, and it has a lot of the same tropes. Itâs very well written, and the dialogue flows excellently with the descriptions.

what is necessary (for love and war) by hellowkatey
âHis fingers reach for the hilt that has become as familiar as his own after that three-day journey back from Melida/Daan. He couldnât stand to put the boy's saber down until he reached his quarters and reality finally set in.
Obi-Wan didnât come back with him. Once again, he is without a Padawan.
The moment cool durasteel meets his fingertips, the overwhelming presence of Obi-Wan slams into him so hard the room begins to spin. Qui-Gon sinks to the floor, saber clutched in both hands and pressed tight against his chest as though itâs actually Obi-Wan heâs hugging.
âYou have to go back.ââ
This time itâs Qui-Gon who is sent forward through time, into the clone wars. The time travel in this fic doesnât really change anything (as in, itâs not a fix-it), but it gives some great insight into Qui-Gonâs character.

Chosen One (derogatory) by annathecrow
âAsajj Ventress, the chosen savior of the galaxy. Force help us all.â
VENTRESS is the one to go back in time. Isnât that crazy??? Isnât that an insane premise?????? It was SO fun to read.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back by K_R_Closson
âAhsoka Tano told Din to bring Grogu to the Seeing Stone on Tython, and Grogu would be able to call out to other Jedi. Ahsoka Tano did not say that other Jedi might call out to him or that the pillar of blue light was actually a type of planetary transportation.
Din ends up on a planet he's never heard of with nothing but his armor and his child. A lot has changed but his mandate hasn't. He must reunite Grogu with one of his kind. But first, he has to help these ade win a civil war against the dar'buir who abandoned them.â
Din travels back to the war on Melida/Daan, where one of our favorite padawans was struggling to lead the Young to victory (hint: heâs a fan favorite who almost always ends up being adopted by Mandalorians). I really like this one! Itâs less about changing the past, and more about character growth and relationships.

I wanted to separate these from the fics above, which are all complete.

from this moment hangs eternity by EvanHart
âIf Luke â Force, his son â was talking about slave chips, something must have gone wrong in the future.
Or, a six-year-old Luke ends up in the middle of the Clone Wars, meets his father, and changes the fate of the galaxy on the way.â
Iâm a real sucker for child Luke. Gotta say. Heâs ADORABLE. and moments of gut-wrenching sadness interrupted by his little sunshine smiles?? Oh my god?
Chapters: 10/15

Oya Mandaâlor! by Cloud__Chaser
âAfter giving up his child to Luke Skywalker, Din Djarin has found himself without a purpose. Filling in the gaps by completing bounties for Boba Fett, Din comes across a strange artifact that leaves him stranded in time.
Who knows, maybe Din's complete lack of knowledge of the world outside of the outer rim will lead to the fall of the empire before it even begins...â
Din basically becomes the most admired person on Mandalore in the span of like. A week. after he travels back in time. Itâs really funny, and something I like to read when Iâm in a good mood!
Chapters: 38/?
(Din/Jaster)

Sith Lord Swell by AMournfulHowlInTheNight
ââWell, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council.â
Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.
âReally, uncle?â
âReally. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population.â
Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?â
Like most Star Wars fans, Iâm not a big fan of the sequels (âsomehow, Palpatine returnedâ my ass), BUT! This fic, involving a young Ben Solo and old Luke Skywalker, was a lot of fun to read.
Chapters: 13/?

There is another Skywalker by WabiSabi
ââThey couldn't narrow down the precise relationship due to some strange contamination in the sample. But when they launched a search in the DNA databank they found a match. Reliability of 50%, which only happens between parent-child andââ
âSiblings,â Master Kenobi completes, voice faint. âFull-blood siblings.â
The clone nods. âShe was estimated to be around 30-years-old, so by process of exclusion, Leia Solo would be General Skywalkerâs older sister by 9 years.ââ
This time, itâs just Leia whoâs sent to the past! Technically Luke lives as a voice in her head, but itâs pretty much just Leia. Also, I really like the premise that the temple runs a DNA test and assumes that sheâs Anakinâs sibling. Itâs a lot of fun!
Chapters: 10/?
Also, itâs been over a year since this updated (as of the date Iâm posting this), so beware, it may or may not be abandoned.

Companion of the Ancestors by Omegarose
âAhsoka finds herself in a strange place, out of contact with Obi-Wan and alone with the twins. The Force feels like it hasn't in years, and she runs into a man who has to be an idiot for the way he's acting like a Jedi two years after Order 66.
((Dooku, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Ahsoka all meet each other when they're 19 years old. With the addition of the Skywalker twins and a slightly-younger (than Ahsoka remembers him) Yoda.))â
I love Ahsoka, I love Luke and Leia, I love Obi-Wan⌠I love this fic. All of the secrets and reveals and drama! So much fun!
Chapters: 10/?
Youâre not able to read this fic unless you have an Ao3 account, but those are easy to make. If anyone doesnât know how to make one, Iâm happy to make a post explaining the process!

Thatâs all, folks! 20 fics is⌠a lot. And there are A LOT of characters in all that⌠So, sorry for the exorbitant amount of tags Iâll be using here. Happy reading!
Clone Wars: When the world ends
Fox watches as Coruscant burns, his men scrambling behind him as democracy falls to the dust. His hands tighten behind his back as he watches smoke rise from the Jedi Temple, a parallel to the smoke rising here in the Senate building.
The screams of Senators and screeching of speeders zooming by barely drowns out the cries that is clones and Jedi alike fighting off the protestors on the street.
Several Venators lift from the Jedi Temple, filled to the brim with younglings and clone cadets, guarded by at least two Jedi Masters and several Clone Commanders and Captains.
He stands amidst the Chancellor's office, his bossâ late body strewn across the floor. Anakin stares emptily at his friend's beheaded head and Fox wonders if heâs actually grieving the man or grieving himself.
Foxâ fingers clench around the comm that continues to relay the emergency alert across the GAR.
Thorn shouts evacuation orders in the background, grabbing Senators from the burning building.
Or at least the ones that he wants to help.
The Senators that have degraded his men and shouted insults and passed laws to make it harder for a clone to live, for a Jedi to stop fighting...
Well, when it's the end, what value do they hold to a clone who's loyalty is for their men and their Jedi?
Thorn turns his back, refusing his men the right to help them. He signals to Stone who open fires on them, pulling Padme and Bail towards the rescue speeders.
A chime echoes in the room, and Fox glances down to see it coming from his comm.
Marshall Commander Cody.
He answers.
"Where are you?" No greeting. No formalities.
Desperation coats his words and Fox wonders how much time they have left.
"We are on our way." Thorn has finished loading up the last of the speeders, while Thire runs back in to make sure no clones are left behind.
He comes back with only two shinies and Fox knows they are ready to evacuate the building.
"We don't have much longer. Our last ship is ready to deport. What's your ETA?"
Thorn waves them forward, jumping on to a speeder bike. He signs to Fox from below, and Fox answers. "T-minus 20 minutes.â
Anakin comes up next to him, his robotic hand creaking as it grips tight around the handle of his lightsaber.
"We will wait 25." Fox nods in acknowledgment, ready to hang up when Cody stops him. "Fox?" He stares down at Cody's concerned face. "We'll meet you here, right?"
Fox doesn't speak for a while, his eyes flicking up to the burning city around him. Anakin quietly snorts at the question and Fox can feel his gold eyes staring into the side of his temple.
"Yes," he lies. "Just look out for my armor." He hangs up before Cody can say anything more.
Thorn's armor is heavy on him, unfamiliar despite being the same size.
As he follows Anakin out of the office, red blade lighting the way, he can't help but wonder...
Are they the villains??
Jaster tries to break into the Temple Archives in increasingly inventive and ridiculous ways. The Temple Guard take bets on how much time will pass between attempts (the shortest was two hours, the longest was seven months) and film the whole thing for the rest of the Guard to watch later. Madame Nu has a sixth sense for when heâs making an attempt and makes her paranoia everyone elseâs problem. Mace gets sympathy headaches.
The closest he ever got was the main doors to the Archive.
(Yoda showed him the way.)
Anakin: [dramatic and villainous] Join me, Master! Iâll give you one last chance! Obi-Wan: âŚfine. Anakin: I â [Dramatic John Williams Score cuts out] Wait, what? Obi-Wan: I said all right, then. [puts his cloak back on] Anakin: [mouth agape] Whâ no, Master, you â Obi-Wan: You offered, didnât you? I mean if the Jedi Order and Republic are over, as you say, I suppose Iâve got to find employment somewhere. Anakin: [with gears visibly turning in his head] Well â but â itâs just. Iâm talking about the Dark Side, Master, you know that, right? Obi-Wan: Yes. What else could you have possibly been talking about? Anakin: IâŚright, of course. SoâŚyouâre just, fine with becoming a Sith Lord, just like that. Obi-Wan: [smoothing out his sleeves] Hmm? I mean, I suppose, you know. Whatever you want to do. Anakin: ThatâŚthis doesnât make any sense. Obi-Wan: See, those were my thoughts exactly! Anakin: [confused as hell] âŚyeah, soâŚwhy⌠Obi-Wan: [scrolling on his phone] I, too, thought to myself âgoodness! That certainly looks like Anakin pledging his life to a Sith Lord, but that, that makes no sense whatsoever! We were just about to win the war, and at any rate I just saw him only a handful of hours ago. Becoming a Sith, at this moment of all moments, would be possibly the stupidest, least-thought-through decision heâs ever made, even including that time he ate those leftovers that had been in the conservator since before we left for Christophsis.â Anakin: [makes a face] Obi-Wan: But then I thought, âwell, Obi-Wan, youâve known Anakin a very long time, surely if heâs doing something this drastic, it must be for a very good reason indeed. A reason that is based on solid facts that he has thought through at length after having gotten many hours of restful sleep. Itâs not like heâd turn to the Dark Side because heâs panicked about something and refuses to talk to anyone about it in any actionable detail, and has decided to place all his proverbial eggs in one basket that happens to belong to a Sith Lord who orchestrated this entire war from the start!â Because of course that would be idiotic. And if that were the case, Anakin should probably just shut up and get on the ship and go help his wife before I have to do something I very much wouldnât like to have to do to him. Anakin: [opens his mouth] [closes it] [unintelligible mumble] Obi-Wan: So, very well then. Sith Lords it is. Do I need to do anything immediately, or shall we just get on to murdering people?I I must say I donât own many dark colors, but Iâm sure we can stop at a store at some point during our killing spree. Anakin: Wâ no, I mean, Obi-Wan, you canâtâŚlikeâŚbe that way. Thatâs notâŚyouâreâŚyou. Obi-Wan: What way is that, Anakin? Did you or did you not ask me to join you? Hmm? I said I accept. I presume you are a man of your word. Whom shall I kill in cold blood? [draws his lightsaber] Anakin: IâŚyou should. I just. [mumbles again] Obi-Wan: Whatâs that? I couldnât quite hear you. [leans in slightly] Would it bother you to see me behaving in such a way? Would it disappoint you, or possibly even tear your heart into pieces to watch your Master fall so far and do such terrible things? Would you do anything, forgive anything even though that is objectively insane, in the off chance that I might see reason, because I am behaving so far beyond anything you know of me? Anakin: [looks away and stares] [more mumbling, scuffs his boot on the ground] Obi-Wan: âŚwell?! Anakin: [pouting and picking up his cloak, already walking away] I said Iâll get in the ship!Â
Star Wars AU where the council time travels back to when Obi-Wan was still an itty-bitty baby initiate. Including, you know. Council Member Obi-Wan Kenobi. So theyâre all in their younger bodies and talking with the current non-time traveling members of the council, and theyâre like âhold on, we got one more coming inâ
And in walks in like. Nine year old Initiate Obi-Wan, all chubby-cheeked with fluffy bright red hair, and giant blue eyes.
Just. Their faces, okay?
Now keep in mind I want the council to always be Up To Shenanigans. Iâm talking like 2015 Avengers tower found family era fics okay, theyâre one big family and Obi-Wan is now super officially The Baby and literally nothing he does will ever stop that again. And despite everything, every single council member is, at heart, incredibly petty in that special Jedi family way and are so ready to not be dealing with a war Right This Very Minute.
What I keep picturing is Baby-Wan wiggling his way into a chair, situating himself Very Regally, then clasping his hands in classic Negotiator style, then speaking up with the Most Serious Of Tiny Baby Voices as the main spokesperson on the Council Of Petty Time Travelers
I just want to see people not in the know
I want Jedi of all ages witnessing Jedi masters, councilmen and women, long lived and wisest of the Jedi, coming to the crèche to visit tiny lil Baby-Wan about his opinions on current events and how they should handle this treaty and also when are you free I want to test my soresu
I just think itâd be funny
hamilton quote in 2023 again? yeah
now animated
in fics where luke gets plopped into the prequels i want every jedi within ten metres of him to think hes the weirdest jedi theyve ever seen. he has negative lightsaber form. he doesnt know what a kata is. he handstands when he meditates. his solution to sith is to try and have a chat. hes a political radical who keeps suggesting revolution. you ask him what the jedi code is and he says "kindness and compassion and helping those in need :) ". you ask how he used the force like that and he says some shit about how you are a luminous being limited only by your mind. the councils authority is just a suggestion. he is somehow the new favourite of both qui gon and yoda
I really want an AU where Cody dies trying to kill Vader because he thinks Vader killed Obi-wan (he knows without a doubt that Obi-wan Kenobi High General of the Republic and Jedi Council Member did not die on Utapau after all) and wakes up on Melida/Daan just in time to save Obi-wan in a fight and have a minor breakdown when he realizes this tiny jedi cadet is his General and also bleeding.
He also absolutely refuses to let the kid leave without him. Heâs seconds from trying to claim Mandalorian adoption rights if Jinn fights him on it but he also doesnât actually know Mandalorian adoption rights outside of the fact that they exist so theyâre definitely a Hail Mary he isnât willing to try until last second.Â
Jinn wants him to leave and the Council lets him stay because âthey think he is a rock for Padawan Kenobi to rely on while they investigate what has occurred.â Cody of course takes this to mean he should just do whatever his now tiny General wants and it begins with training him in half-a-dozen different forms of hand to hand and also ensuring he can shoot with at least the accuracy Cody expected from shinies.Â
Batman has a watchlist. A list that contains every individual who could become a rouge and a contingency plan for if they did. Â
And while they, his children, often make fun of his paranoia and him for having it, they totally understand why he did. They lived in Gotham, for Christ's sake. Where everyoneâs just a pin drop away from being the cityâs next big villain, forcing the bats to scratch their heads while playing cat and mouse with a sicko for a good few weeks. And while they wonât admit it, the list has helped them a few times.Â
But that wonât stop them from making fun of any of the listâs new developments. Because you see, there was a new list. And it wasnât just a watchlist. No, no, no. It was The Watchlist.
It was a new development after he and Robin went on an out-of-state mission to investigate some town in bum fuck nowhere Illinois. And it was under some pretty tight security as well, so they were expecting something good, like mad scientists or evil mayors. Not profiles of the kids who lived in the town. And while there were a few metas and vigilantes that made the list interesting, by the end of it all they just seemed to be teenagers.Â
Until they saw Damian. They hadnât seen him since he came back from the mission with B. He looked tired. Like âTim hasnât slept in a week and is surviving on just coffee beansâ tired.
âAh, I see you all have found it. Good. A few of them will be arriving next week as theyâre a part of Gotham Academyâs student exchange program. At least three of them will be staying in the manor with us. Father will need you all to be on standby and to be ready for any possible scenario. Please, for the love of all that is good, do not encourage them in any way, shape, or form. And please do not dismiss them either. The outcome of doing that will be much worse. Is there more that I should add? Yes. Will I? No, because you wonât understand. Not until you've seen what I have.âÂ
The demon child sighed, then looked them dead in the eyes. âGodspeed to us all.â Then walked away.
Okay, they were scared now.
