Also: in the DinLuke adopting Rey AU, how does the Ben Solo storyline evolves? (I don't mind a bit of DinLuke angst tbt)
leia simply does not let it evolve <3

i think the most unreal thing about the sequel trilogy isn't anything about rey… it's the fact that ben didn't know his grandfather
and i don't mean the fact that he was vader, but that, having proven the existence of force ghosts, i'm 100% sure that anakin would have done the impossible to keep an eye on his only grandson
(and cry to obi-wan for being so good to leia that he even named his son ben. obi-wan keeps an eye on him too, but less, he's dealt with enough skywalkers in life to continue stressing out in death, even if baby ben doesn't do any crazy maneuvers yet)
(i imagine him flying toys and spaceships over baby ben to make him fall asleep, and when he grows up, teaching him mechanics and how to deal with r2-d2 and c3-po)
(leia wouldn't be too happy about that, but hey, she's a free babysitter and she knows how to deal with a sensitive little one. the force. anyway, if anyone can figure out how to shoot a ghost with a blaster, it’s her)
(luke has played mediator more times than he can count between father and sister)
so when snoke starts whispering to ben, well, the kid doesn’t pay much attention. he’s heard enough stories about the dark side from his grandfather anakin and his grandfather obi-wan to believe him blindly
and then the darth vader reveal happens. and the first thing ben does is not demand answers as to why he wasn’t told sooner, but laugh. because he finds it funny that one of the most feared creatures in history is the same one who disappears when his mother gives him a dirty look, who looks like a scolded puppy when his friend tells him something, who runs away from a green goblin so he doesn't hit him with a cane, and seriously, why doesn't anyone believe ben when he says he's seen darth vader's ghost cry during sad moments in romantic holo-movies?
and when snoke insists that his grandfather would want ben to continue his "legacy" of oppression, ben dismisses him and says "yeah, no. all my grandfather wants is for me to continue flying spaceships and fixing droids. oh, and also, the only thing he agrees with my mother on is that I should get a good girlfriend, marry her, and have lots of babies. for something they both agree on, i'm not going to ignore that!

Hey!! I really loved the idea of poll and I got an idea :) what about the best lightsaber in sw??
Consider this my redemption for my “Best Star Wars Ship 🚀” poll. This is no rushed joke poll! This is a hard-worked on, week-long… joke poll.

"Ben Solo is Kylo Ren" no he's literally just Rey's emo cousin
(commission info // kofi support!)

I know whatever plans they had for Leia and Ben had to be stopped after Carrie's untimely passing.
But if the Original Trilogy was about the sins of the father(prequels about his literal sins) and the son trying to save him.
The Sequels should have been about the mother's failure and the son coming home.
It should have been the antithesis of Anakin leaving Shmi with it ending with Ben coming home and embracing Leia over the dark side.

Tiny hands, future untold,
In your eyes, the Force so bold.
Leia's heart, forever to hold,
Her love for Ben, a story of gold.
