Star Wars Rarepairs letter 2018
Dear Star Wars Rarepairs writer
Thank you for writing for me, I'm looking forward to reading the story you'll write about these pairings. I've included prompts because I know that can sometimes be helpful, but if you aren't inspired by them, or if you have a completely different story you want to tell - go for it!
I love reading all sorts of stories, happy, sad, funny or serious. I like character based stories and also crossovers, time travel and alternate universes. I adore outsider points of view (even from original characters) and epistolary fic. I love stories about 'how they got together' and friends turning into lovers, but they don't have to end with happily ever after with all their problems resolved (but I don't mind if they do). I like reading about fight sex and awkward first, second or even twenty-seventh time sex. I love female characters so I would be a little sad if they were completely sidelined. I love stories with a strong sense of place. I like canon pairings and obscure canon details. I like stories about all kinds of families.
Ahsoka Tano/Sabé
We don’t know much about Sabé and that is one of the things that intrigues me about pairings with her. We know she had a lot of experience as Padmé’s decoy but what happened after that. Did she and Ahsoka ever meet, either before or after Padmé’s death? What happened? Did they have much in common? Were they both running from the Empire?
Obi-Wan Kenobi/Shmi Skywalker
I read a fic that featured this pairing once and it was lovely and I’m intrigued by this as a pairing. They never met in canon but they both cared very much for Anakin and I wondered what would’ve happened if they’d joined forces in raising him.
Obi-Wan Kenobi/Owen Lars/Beru Whitesun
They were all stuck on Tatooine together and we know there is a lot of tension between them all by the time Luke is grown. How did that happen? Was it always like that or was there an AU where they all worked together to raise and protect Luke? How would their relationship look?
Obi-Wan Kenobi/Leia Organa
I think this is a time travel kind of thing but I’d love to know what might happen if these two met at any point.
Asajj Ventress/Mara Jade
I know these two from totally different universes but what would happen if they met? Would they feel they had much in common, or not? Sure, they’ve both been assassins, sure they were apprentices of a sort to a Sith but does that make them alike?
