Audible Symphonia Edition! Where Cassian Takes The Symphonia (maybe A New One Just For This) And Reads

I think Anakin and Padme deserve to Stay Besties in any AU that isn't Anidala specifically because their love languages are absolutely buckwild and insane to almost anyone else, but match up to each other pretty perfectly, which means that if they aren't dating each other, they are the exact right person to have egging the other on and enabling whatever unhinged bullshit they're planning on doing in the name of romance.

Anakin thinks he needs to serenade his partner? Padme hires him an orchestra.

Padme wants to meet daringly under the cover of night with her new secret lover because that's the only right way to do it? Anakin is staging a kidnapping for her, zero questions.

Anakin is swooning over how his love interest was kissing him! but it was actually lips-to-leg attempts to suck out the venom of a bad bite (something you're not even actually supposed to do, but hey, the Force slowed his heart down enough that maybe it helped! and he survived anyway, it's fine)? Padme is over the moon for him, that's so romantic!

Their brain cells are so, so allergic to each other. Put them in a room and all common sense flees in the face of "okay, but if I challenge her to a sword fight--" "Padme you can't challenge a Sith to a sword fight." "No no, but if I challenge her and then you swoop in for me as my substitute, and I promise a kiss to the winner and you throw the match--" "Okay I don't want to lose to Ventress but oh my god, I love it."

Move aside, Idiots to Lovers, there's a new ballgame in town!

Friends to Lovers to Idiots

I am awaiting the Tech and Phee reunion which will I hope happen in front of Crosshair and when she grabs Tech and kisses him Cross is going to be like

Alwyn Scribe to me is a character of all time. Was illiterate up to age 17, then very soon after learning to write became regarded as one of the best scribes in the world. Lies at any given opportunity. Once tried to smuggle a vial of poison into prison by hiding it up his ass. God’s specialist little guy despite spending most of the series an atheist. Started several holy wars while once again not believing in any of the religions involved. Kept refusing to break up with his girlfriend despite all the red flags and the divine omens that she was evil. Really cares about preserving books and history but also wrote shit that was fully not true and tried to get it into an archive. Historians cannot agree whether he was good or evil because he switched sides so much. What more could you want from a man

I am now incredibly angry this didn’t happen

imagine a Clone Wars episode/arc where a criminal is hired to dig up dirt (real or imagined) on the Jedi so they’re expelled or fall out of favor with the Chancellor or something

but like the investigator/criminal gets inVeStEd

“what do you MEAN Windu has never taken a day?? in his Jedi career?? someone teach this man SELF CARE”

“what do you MEAN General Kenobi would have left the order for Satine Kryze??? and they haven’t seen each other in over seven months?? do I NEED to wreak havoc on Mandalore so you can get thee to her, ginger-in-chief?”

“what do you MEAN Yoda’s apprentice fell to the dark side? what absolute madman does that to a liddle green bloke?”

“I have a bad feeling about exposing any of General Skywalker’s private life… as in… imperially bad feeling… I think he needs some blankets and maybe calming herbal teas”

“boss I’m sorry Commander Tano has done nothing wrong in her life ever”

I love the relationship between Nesta and Azriel so much. They are so parallel to each other and the endless patience and maturity Azriel directs towards Nesta is refreshing, especially considering how all the characters (including her mate and sisters) were so emotionally ignorant and unaware.

When it was said that:

Azriel never said a bad word about Nesta. Never seemed inclined to start a fight with her.

I knew that they would be close for a long time. But more importantly, the fact that his kindness wasn’t just a new development in ACOSF but was his standard way of interacting with Nesta from the start.

Almost everyone in the IC approached Nesta poorly or with questionable intent or bad mouthed her amongst themselves. Rhysand and Mor would often insult Nesta behind her back (though Feyre actually did reprimand Rhysand that one time) and even Cassian judged her the first moment he saw her.

But never Azriel. Azriel who saw Nesta and never said anything cruel to or about her. Azriel who never saw the point of fighting with her. Azriel who really saw her and treated her with the respect and patience she deserved.

Notice how throughout the entire series, the only amicable relationship Nesta had (besides Amren…and only up to a point) was with Azriel. One thing about Nesta is that she never starts fights but she will stand her ground and finish them. Every interaction between her and the IC is her defence or retaliation to the wrongdoings done by others. Hence her good relationship with Azriel.

I hope to hear more about them in the next books. I think Azriel could teach his court a few things too.

In an interview in 2015 SJM said that Lucien liked to be irritating and I started to imagine him with the brothers, he must irritate them a lot, I can only imagine in that scene that he gave Feyre something to eat and then laughed at her.

Lucien was absolutely the most annoying child EVER to his himbo brothers. Picture it:

Six* brawny brothers who like to fight, fuck, and cause problems on purpose

*More like five and a half, since Eris is smart and has layers and whatnot

ANYWAYS.

Along comes Lucien, who is a tiny little nerd who asks a bunch of questions and who is very clearly Not Like the Others™️ and you get these brothers who are constantly annoyed.

Honestly picture Beron like the Burger King and all of his sons like ginger Gastons who have no tolerance for this child who cites chapters and verses during regular dinner conversation and probably speaks like six languages and who never seems to get sunburned.

I think about him a normal amount

I've said it once and I'll say it again, I HATE Amren with a passion and after acosf I'd be happy for her to leave on a permanent basis.

I honestly think Amren has alterior motives regarding the Night Court considering how much she was pushing Rhys on the idea of being High King....like what? He's just tied his fate to his Mate's and you want him to literally risk it all for power???

I see you, you little Asteri traitor 👀

Bail Organa is literally for Star Wars what Nick Fury is for Marvel and Charlie for Charlie's Angels and I'm so up for it.

Man brought Mon Mothma, Riyo Chuchi, Ahsoka Tano (aka Vader's former Padawan) and Obi Wan Kenobi (aka Vader's former Master) and many other others to fight with the Rebelion under the noses of the Empire without them not even suspecting. Deserves more recognition.

QUICK ANAKIN HEADCANNON / HOTTAKE

He can’t read or write in basic.

As Anakin grew up on Tattooine, the most important language was Huttese as the Hutts controlled Tattooine. He could speak, read and write Huttese easily, everything was in Huttese. As bounty hunters, sailors and others came through speaking Basic he started to pick up on it, especially as Watto and his mum could speak Basic. His mum Shmi picked up on his interest and started teaching him. Only one problem, she can’t read or write in basic either, and she can’t send a slave to school.

Fast forward to Anakin becoming Obi-Wan’s Padawan, Obi-wan taught him theory by speaking. As a pawawan himself he hated it. So Anakin had no reason to learn how to write. He would read all his books after they were translated into Huttese.

Again Fast forward to the Clone Wars and the never ending paperwork. Anakin was known as the general who didn’t do paperwork. The council and the senate wanted the paperwork in Basic, and basic only. Any paperwork he did was first done in Huttese and translated digitally. New problem Rex wanted to do his paperwork with Anakin, to see why he didn’t do it by himself. Rex pasted him some of his paperwork and asked Anakin to read it over. Anakin sat there staring at the odd symbols before telling Rex he can’t read. Let’s just say Anakin almost cried.

Ahsoka somehow fount out (it helps to be a sister to the clones) and would constantly ask how come he couldn’t read, and word reach Obi-Wan who immediately felt awful for not teaching him how to read. Eventually Rex and Padmé taught him, however Anakin was embarrassed by not knowing how to read (or write) would by rude to Padmé and Rex. At the end of the clone wars he can write, read and speak in basic.

One day Yoda tells him he doesn’t know how to read or write in basic as well
