My general preferences are here.

MAYBE: no-harm dubcon (sex pollen or “fertility artifact”) | period typical attitudes | infidelity | power dynamic

I love treats!

And just keep the women out of the fridge!

My Star Wars preferences:

So, I'm a Star Wars fan who's a little sad that the Extended Universe got handwaved away - I really loved Timothy Zahn and Michael Stackpole, and my requests tend to reflect that. I am a Legends girl at heart, and you can’t go wrong if you write me something that belongs in either a Timothy Zahn book or one of Stackpole’s Rogue Squadron books. Please don't refer to anything that happened after the godawful Vector Prime and switch to Del Rey. No Yuuzhan Vong, no Mara Jade gets weird wasting disease, no Teneniel getting put in the freezer.

I'm also not a very active Star Wars fan. I’m not into the games, am not reading the new EU stuff, so don’t write anything that requires a lot of homework to GET.

However, I'm also a Star Wars fan who thought Rogue One totally and completely rocked it out of the park. Loved it loved it loved it! Went and saw it in the theaters like 4 times, including giving up a free day to go see it on a BIG screen. It’s so good. The novelization was good too. I’m a fan of Everyone Lives/Krennic dies AUs or Some People Live/Some People Die.

I love the original three (ROTJ is my favorite).

I enjoyed the sequels (although that like is dwindling more every time I see a stupid handwave plot post) but didn’t LOVE them, especially after the ridiculously evident fact that they DIDN’T HAVE A PLAN.

I am NOT a fan of the prequels. I wanted to like them, but I just couldn’t get past Phantom Menace and the stupidity of traveling around with young Obi-Wan Kenobi and falling for Anakin.

I’m not familiar with the animated SW shows, and my ignoring the prequels means I also missed all the “Jedi don’t have emotional attachments” which maybe should have gone down as a bad idea.

I’m not familiar with most of the Disney shows BUT I did enjoy Kenobi quite a bit. I loved Tala and little Leia and Beru.

I did enjoy the zaniness of the Star Wars Lego Holiday special, so feel free to play off that.

My heart is with the original 3 (and Rogue One, now that it exists) and the "waved away" Extended Universe. The more they make me feel like it requires me to do homework, the less interested I am.

I'm also not really a Luke fan. Give me Han and Wedge any day of the week. And maybe Ben Kenobi. Or an AU where Biggs Darklighter becomes the most famous pilot from Tatooine. And maybe find some way to make Rey a Kenobi descendant…? I really wanted her to be a Kenobi descendant. I still want her to be a Kenobi somehow.

Winter Celchu & Wes Janson

Tycho Celchu/Winter Celchu

Garven "Dave" Dreis/Nera Kase

Wedge Antilles & Biggs Darklighter

Wedge Antilles/Leia Organa

All characters do not need to appear but if you do I am here for it.

Winter & Wes - Getting into or out of trouble? Bonus points if you tie this to a Rogue Squadron related bachelor party. Remembering things/giving comfort/planning a surprise?

Wedge & Biggs - What if Biggs becomes the most famous fighter pilot from Tatooine? Ghostly encounter? There must always be a Darklighter in Rogue Squadron

Nera/Garven - AU with some happiness? Everybody Lives Nobody Dies (but the baddies)?

Wedge/Leia - I would really love to see this.

Winter & Wes – I feel like this is trouble.

I love love love Wedge Antilles. I'd love something set during original movies, X-Wing books or maybe a look at what he's doing in Last Jedi (or why he's NOT doing anything). I like Poe, but he's no Wedge Antilles‚Ä¶

I admit to a preference for the Wedge of the Rogue Squadron books, with the sly humor and him as the Commander of the Rogues (and their craziness). Maybe an AU where Biggs is in there with him? You could keep Gavin around as well.

Not really much to add besides WHERE ARE ALL THE PILOTS in the later movies?

I have a great affection for Biggs as well, and would love to see him and Gavin hanging out (maybe include Wedge). Or maybe Biggs lives and becomes the most famous pilot a planet called Tatooine ever produced....

I discovered Nera in the not-so-recent anthology, and need more. I'd love to see Wedge give Nera the credit she and her crews deserve, maybe a little banter. I'd love an AU she gets to tell Garven how she feels...

Wedge/Leia – I think a fling could have happened, a little stress relief...

Keep them in the X-Wing or original series timeframe. Leia is gone when Wedge finally makes his appearance in TLJ, but you could do something with that, him remembering her as friends or more. I'd love to see more of this relationship, especially as it is portrayed in the Legends book. Or if you want to take it to TLJ, that would also be acceptable.

Also, I did not mean to leave Tycho/Winter off but I got a little c/p happy. I’d love something soft and fluffy and sweet for them (or maybe a little spicy). Feel free to combine with Wedge/Leia.

Tala Durith & Jyn Erso

Cassian Andor/Jyn Erso/Bodhi Rook

Jyn Erso & Lyra Erso

Cassian Andor/Jyn Erso

Jyn Erso & Wedge Antilles

All characters do not need to appear but if you do I am here for it.

Tala & Jyn - I would love for both of these two to live and meet!

Cassian/Jyn - Everybody Lives Nobody Dies so now they have to talk? Romance while in the Rebellion?

Cassian/Jyn/Bodhi - Could be interesting!

Jyn & Wedge - Do they know each other? Good with ELND or going with canon and remembrance

Jyn & Lyra - Lyra Lives AU.

Tala Durith and Jyn could be interesting (or Lyra … or all 3). Down time or mission time would be good. Lyra and Jyn escape and join the Rebellion? I’m here for it. Involving Tala (another candidate for Not Dying) would be awesome as well.

I love Cassian/Jyn. A quiet moment would be nice. I ship it, and would love to see more of them in a Not Everyone Dies scenario (or Everyone Lives is good too!). Wedge and Cassian or Jyn or Tala would be fun to see.

Adding Bodhi to Cassian/Jyn could be interesting – him trying to regain his memories? Choosing a new future?

Cassian & Wedge or Jyn & Wedge could also be interesting, in a post R1 setup. Feel free to combine with Cassian/Jyn.

Jyn and Lyra – Take them out of the fridge, it is getting full! Let these two have a glorious AU.

Corran Horn/Mirax Terrik

Corran Horn & Nejaa Halcyon

Wedge Antilles & Corran Horn & Mirax Terrik & Booster Terrik & Han Solo

All characters do not need to appear but if you do I am here for it.

Corran/Mirax - I love these two. Fluff, missing scenes, all good

Corran & Nejaa - Force Ghost visit.

Wedge & Corran & Mirax & Booster & Han - Corellia forever (For this specific req you can drop Booster if you like)

I'd love to see Corran getting a force ghost visit from his grandfather.

I'm always down for Corran/Mirax and their relationship. (Combining them with Han/Leia could be very fun. Maybe some diplomatic event that gets steadily less boring? Corellia related? Mirax and Han swapping stories?). I love Mirax and Corran, especially when she takes him down a few notches.

Wedge & Corran & Mirax & Han: Corellia Forever! The most epic smuggling job ever - or the stories in the bar later. Hijinks ensue. Rogue Squadron timeline or later. Maybe Booster and/or Leia are included?

So this is my Corellia/Corran Horn request. Yes I know he’s a pain in the ass, but I do love him (especially if people take him down a peg or two). I love the idea that all the Corellians could be drinking buddies, and I am 100% here for the idea that Corellians may have a higher percentage of people who use the Force on a subconscious level but think they’re just lucky. Never tell them the odds.

I’m also totally down for you poking some gentle fun at CorSec Corran Horn being a little twitchy at being surrounded by the Corellian Rogues Gallery, even if he is involved with/married to one.

Prefer X-Wing and Thrawn Trilogy/Duology eras, not I Jedi.

Teneniel Djo/Luke Skywalker

Teneniel Djo & Mara Jade

Mara Jade & Rey

Mara Jade/Luke Skywalker

Teneniel/Luke - What if he stays on Dathomir?

Teneniel & Mara - What if Mara went to Dathomir?

Mara & Rey - For these two, I would specifically love a Legends/Sequel fusion.

Mara/Luke - Legends/Sequel fusion? Mara providing some common sense?

Just don't put Teneniel in the fridge like they do later in the series. I loved young Teneniel and was super disapointed to see what they did to her.

Mara interacting with Teneniel could be fun.

So I am totally down for a Legends/ST fusion. I love the idea that Mara and Luke could help fend off the total disaster the sequels open us on. I also love the idea of Mara Jade and Rey linking up. I’ve written a take on this for a previous MayTheFourth, feel free to check out.

I love Teneniel with Luke (maybe not a permanent thing) and think she and Mara Jade could team up to give Luke quite the headache. Or maybe Mara has an adventure on Dathomir?

Mara rescuing Rey and her parents would be good.
