    Summary

    “You were going to give up the Rebellion for me–”

    “I was giving up the Rebellion for me. For my peace of mind…for my life. All you did was force my hand, left me with no choice but to continue the fight I no longer wanted. And I did. I became exactly what you wanted: the perfect soldier, doing whatever I was ordered without question. Then…I heard rumors of an Imperial pilot…”

    “And you met her.”

    “And I met her.”

    “Do you love her?”

    “It’s not that easy of a question.”

    “Do you still love me?”

    “That’s even harder.”

    Summary

    As life is leaving him, Anakin accepts his well-deserved end, finding solace in the love of his son in his last moments. But as Obi-Wan and Yoda guide him throught the Netherworld, they tell him this is not the end, and much need to be done still.
    Anakin wakes up on Mortis, twenty-five years earlier, in a body he barely registers as his own, with his heart and mind in turmoil, and with decades worth of knowledge that could save the galaxy from Sidious' grasp. As time flows differently on Mortis, Anakin chooses to stay there with the Father and to finally learn how to be the Chosen One.
    As he returns to Coruscant one year later, with a solid plan, unexpected allies and a power he never imagined at the tip of his fingers, he will have to face his demons and be the one the galaxy needs, no matter the price to himself.

    This fic was born from my undying curiosity for the Star Wars lore, and the absolute desire to see Anakin at his fully blossomed potential. It will be a hard and long path for him to be the Chosen One, but once Anakin is set on something, well we all know how it is !

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Such a beautiful story about redemption and finding peace and goodness. Also a reminder of the people living in the galaxy far far away, the slaves waiting to be freed and Anakin finally reaching his full potential in the force and finding serenity. So many stories only restrict to showing Anakins skill in battle or his Force abilities in battle related scenes, but I love that the chosen one and the force are more than just violence here, they are freedom.

    Summary

    Good girls, Steph reminds herself, do what other people want.

    They don’t hurt feelings.

    And they don’t say no.

    It takes years before Steph sits up straight, suddenly, at her desk, and throws up right across her spread of chemistry notes as it hits her. As she realizes exactly what she didn't have the knowings to know.

    She is four, she is six, she is fifteen, she is eight. She is twelve and she is a thousand years old.

    She is body and fear and shaking and spell-speaking, and when her teacher waves a hand in front of her face, Stephanie lunges out of the chair, neck over ass over teakettle over heels, melting onto the floor, crashing under the wave. Steph scrambles to the door. No hall pass. No permission. She is out of the building running with no words to be found before anyone can snatch her, grab her, dig their nails in high up on her arm. She runs for the only place this body can think to run--without her, carrying her.

    Her body takes her home.
