All those Lando/Clones wips look oh so awesome. But Lando/Cody & Fox/Bail takes the cake

Lando and Bail are both massively underappreciated and them getting to show off their brilliance makes me so happy.

Ahsoka and Rex go to Tatooine

Ahsoka gets pointed to Tatooine about two years after the Empire rises. Bail is vague about it, but tells her she’ll find Someone She’s Looking For if she goes. Ahsoka brings Rex because reasons. Bail intended for her to find Obi-Wan, because he’s heard about training bonds and one time Obi-Wan mentioned Ahsoka had formed a minor one with him, but he doesn’t know enough about the Force to realize she’d be drawn directly to Luke instead.

So one day, Beru and Owen just open the door, toddler in hand, to see an exhausted, distraught former Jedi a good decade their junior on the step, with an clone soldier, eyes fixed on Luke and looking like she’s about to cry.

For a particularly high level of drama, this wasn’t planned, and Bail had only told her that she could Find Allies on Tatooine if she ended up in the absolute worst possible situation (she is pretty much the only person he felt deserved to know there were allies on Tatooine at all), and what actually happens is that Ahsoka passes out like two seconds after the door opens and Rex is left holding the bag of “how the fuck do I explain the thing.”

Rex gains a bit of favor by explaining about the chip in his head after Owen demands an explanation because last he heard, the clones had turned on the Jedi on the Emperor’s orders, and Beru and Owen have enough knowledge of slavery (and Beru’s family has been freeing people for so many generations) that the story of what happened during O66 on Mandalore immediately wins Rex some points, at least enough for someone to go get Ben.

This is the point at which I admit that this was partially driven by me thinking about one of those “Cody finds/is found by Obi-Wan on Tatooine, gets de-chipped, they end up Husbands” AUs and me really wanting post-O66 Ahsoka crying on Obi-Wan while he awkwardly explains to the Lars family that this girl is Basically His Daughter

Probably while Ahsoka’s passed out in his lap.

Also I want that dramatic moment of Owen telling Obi-Wan that someone showed up “looking for Jedi” but not really explaining much, just enough for Obi-Wan to panic and jump on a speeder with Cody in full armor and with a blaster because Owen doesn’t seem worried enough for it to be imperials but what if and then he shows up and instead it’s Ahsoka, exhausted and injured and unconscious, but it’s his grandpadawan.

He freezes when he sees her, almost doesn’t even parse that Rex is there until the man starts talking, and then he backpedals, grabs Cody from outside where he’s helping Owen secure the speeder, and shoves him into the building because Brothers.

(In Owen’s defense, he had a vague idea that there were millions of clones and had no reason to assume these two in particular would know each other.)

There’s a Keldabe kiss with some tears that everyone later denies happened, and Obi-Wan just goes over to sit with Ahsoka and push some healing energy into her body until she feels well enough to wake up. Luke toddles in and basically just gets passed around between Beru and Owen and Obi-Wan. He gives Owen and Beru an abridged explanation of how they all know each other and how Jedi families work, which leads to Beru declaring that if Ahsoka was Anakin’s adopted family, then she’s family to the rest of them, too, by Tatooine standards. And since Rex is a brother to Obi-Wan’s husband–

“Your WHAT?” Rex demands.

“Husband, vod'ika, keep up.”

Anyway, everyone’s family somehow but the important part is reuniting clones and having the disaster lineage crying on each other because I have seen those screenshots where Ahsoka canonically refers to Obi-Wan as her adoptive father when talking about him to strangers post-O66 and sure that’s arguably just her reframing to fit the conversation and her audience, but also. Like. That’s Her Dad.

Ezra and Fulcrum’s Wacky Adventure

Ezra’s attempt to save Ahsoka on Malachor by fucking around with space-time goes wonky, and the two of them end up in the first year of TCW… with Vader in pursuit.

“You’re Ahsoka… from the future?”

“Sure am, Skyguy.”

“And that’s your padawan.”

“A friend’s padawan. His master died recently, and I’m keeping an eye on him until we figure something out.”

“Right, right… and, uh, mister tall, Dark, and horrifying?”

“Oh, that’s future you.”

“…”

“Yeah, Palpatine’s a Sith Lord and he’s been grooming you for a decade. Shit’s fucked. Anyway, get ready to jump, Vader’s gaining on us.”

I just have this mental image of hyper-competent “I am no Jedi” Fulcrum leading 20yo Anakin and angstiest ever Ezra on a merry ride called “avoid Vader before he kills us all.”

Han is all “there’s to much Vader in him,” without mentioning that there is too much Vader in Leia too. 

Like, Bail Organa, bless his poor poor soul, tried to politician the Vader out of her. He tried SO FUCKING HARD. 

But the fact that she abandoned politics to be a General in the Resistance says a lot about her similarities to Anakin Skywalker. 

Okay, but Plo Koon trying to play match maker for his troops.

He does it mainly to tease the Wolf pack but also deep down Plo is such a romantic sap. Besides, it’s not like there’s any rules against him helping his troops find love. So anytime he sees an interaction that’s a little more than friendly between one of the Wolf pack and someone he starts to tease them.

“Do you fancy anyone, Sinker?”

“Wha-No!”

“What about the mechanic who you were speaking to in the hangar yesterday? They seemed rather keen of you.”

“General, please stop.”

Or

“Were you flirting with the medic, Wolffe?”

“Of course not, sir.”

“Then that isn’t their number that you’re currently holding?”

“I-er-It’s purely for medical purposes!”

“I see.”

Plo telling embarrassing stories to each of the Wolf pack’s crushes when he finally meets them. Like how Sinker got his head stuck that one time, or when Comet tasered himself in training, and how Wolffe called Plo Koon by the wrong name for the first week of being assigned to him, etc. Just Plo being a dad who wants his boys to be happy but also wants to cause them as much distress along the way as he can.

all dads in star wars can be ranked on a scale from mando (best) to brendol hux (worst) and that’s a fact
