For the Star Wars asks: 3, 14, and 38?
O God in Heaven Help Me, @the-coruscanti-blogger, these are so hard, but. Okay. *rubs hands together* Let’s do this.
I’m so sorry if it’s a little chaotic!
3. Favorite Character from the Prequels
*sighs* This is a hard question for me. Reaaaaallllly hard. I will answer with one, but I must add my next two favorite Prequel Era characters because I feel it would be wrong not to, that’s how much I like them.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Anakin Skywalker (I’m sorry your no. 1 is my no. 2! 🥺)
Asajj Ventress (technically she’s from TCW, but it’s still the same time period, so…)
14. If I Could Change One Two (technically three) Thing(s) About the Star Wars Universe, What Would it They Be?
Let’s make it two(ish). Asajj Ventress (I would have loved to see her helping out the galaxy when she could, being an awesome Gray Jedi, you know? It would’ve been so cool) and Ben Solo would live, and somehow, I don’t know, the seven traditional forms of Jedi lightsaber dueling would be revived.
38. Fic Recommendations (this was the easiest one for me.)
Mission Report by Ruth Baulding
This is amazingly hilarious. This was one of the first Star Wars fics I ever read. It’s Anakin and Obi-Wan writing a report for the Jedi Council. That’s it.
Live Broadcast by Ruth Baulding
Anakin and Obi-Wan from the point of view of a holo-jockey on a Separatist-annexed planet. It involves a lot of comedy, and it’s really good.
You Shall Become (Me) by Jedipati
How to describe this? This is AU comedy gold. Let me just use the author’s own summary, because their words are the best. “The Guardian of the Sith Temple doesn't particularly care for the new breed of Sith, for all that they've been around for 1,000 years. But they're the only Sith the Guardian knows about. Until one day… Alternately, "How to accidentally join the Sith without really trying."”
Quintessence by Mathematica
This shifts POV from Anakin and Obi-Wan to that of the Jedi Council as The Team reports to them about their latest mission.
Essence of Amity by Above the Winter Moonlight
Inspired by the previous fic, Anakin and Obi-Wan are assigned to a diplomatic mission somewhere out in the middle of nowhere, and everything possible goes wrong for the Master and Padawan.
Canzonet by Pyxelle
This is more Obi centric but this is worth the read. Ani and Obi are sent to a planet to mediate a dispute. The problem is, the inhabitants of the planet cannot understand spoken language, they only understand singing.
(I have a thing for comedy featuring The Team 🤣)
Now for something more serious. I know you said that you wouldn’t stop Anakin from turning because then we wouldn’t get Darth Vader — and I also love Darth Vader, but this next fic is so amazing, I’m pretty sure you might (almost) not miss Darth Dadakin.
When Darkness Seems to Hide This Place by IllyanaA
This AU has it all, Skeevy Sheevy being Skeevy and EVIL, spectacular adventures and skin-of-their-teeth rescues, Ani & Obi being bad*ss, honest and open about their emotions, and being the best brothers to ever brother, Anakin being an Amazing Dad, Awesome Ahsoka, nuanced side characters, and a not-dead Asajj Ventress. This is a 50 chapter epic, but I’m telling you, once you start this one, you’ll have a hard time stopping.
Rise, Lord Kenobi by LilyWanKenobi
This is an AU Obitine where Obi-Wan is the heir to the Stewjonian leadership, and as the heir, he is called upon to fulfill his duties upon his father’s death.
The Height of Subtlety by WinterSky101
Bail hosts Padmè, Anakin and Obi-Wan for a dinner party at his place, and no, there are no secret couples in this group, no siree!
One of my jams is Leia makes up with Dad fics, so these are a few:
Father and Daughter by Morwen Tindomerel This references some events from Legends but it’s still quite in canon up to now.
gunpowder and shades of grey by irnan This fic uses the Legends names of Leia’s children, just so you know.
Restless Warrior by Aria Saralyn This is a oneshot longform masterwork. This must be read.
Darkness by Firefly Alchemist After Ben Solo turns to the Dark Side, Anakin comforts his daughter.
Interview With A Sith Lord by KaelinaLovesLomaris
This fic shows that there was more to Captain Piett’s promotion to Admiral than met the eye.
These following fics use the Legends Canon, and these fics by the same author, frodogenic, are so incredibly good that I had to put these on here. It’s an AU fic series that all hinges on the idea that instead of bodily picking up Skeevy Sheevy in RotJ, he used the Force instead to yeet him into the reactor. Luke and Anakin decided to deal with everything else later because the Death Star was about to blow and they have to get out of there. In this ‘verse, Anakin is able to return to the Executor which was still intact because Admiral Piett was able to raise the shields in time for her to avoid her bridge being blown to pieces. However, despite that, her navigation computers have been completely damaged and so, with seconds to spare, they hightail it out of Endor only to land in the Unknown Regions. These fics pick up twenty-some years after RotJ, and are spectacular in their scale. The feels and the snark and the humor are strong with these. You will have emotions in some parts, and want to bust a gut laughing in others. I know I did.
Meet the Skywalkers While this is technically the first in the series, this one is the latest story in the AU. The author is slow to update, but it’s really, really worth every single wait.
Lord Vader’s Limpet Darth Dadakin babysits one of his grandsons.
Driving Lord Vader Anakin Solo goes to the Space DMV to get his license. Only catch? Grandpa’s the one taking him there. From there, it gets funnier, and heartfelt by the end.
Four Letters, Starts With L Luke gets hurt while being all Jedi Master-y and Dad comes to visit him in the hospital. So sweet, it’s cavity inducing.
Late Afternoon by camweasley
Post-TRoS fic. Ben comes when he can.
we’ll sit and talk the stars down from the sky by catefrankie (tumblr is @catefrankie if you’re interested)
Post-TRoS fic. It’s still a dance with them, if not a more simple one. It’s still complicated though.
Catharsis by KCMarsala
This is TRoS fix-it fic with sass, sads and laughs.
Hope May Vanish, But Can Die Not by DancingInTheStorm (@enthusiasticallyobessed)
A TLJ Luke study with a beautiful and touching appearance from Anakin.
I have so many more, but I wanted to keep things short (hah) so I will end it here, but not before I recommend…
Would it be so bad if I recommended my own fic, Gray Guardian?
It’s an AU focused on Force Ghost! (ish. You’ll see) Asajj Ventress, basically being young Jedi Initiate Ben Solo’s Guardian Angel. Jedi Master/Uncle Luke’s there too, along with a lot of Anakin (father and son feels), and Obi-Wan (he gets lots of brotherly feels with Anakin too and a lot of feels in general), with guest stars Yoda and Qui-Gon. It features a bestest frenemies forevership with Asajj and Obi-Wan, and a Reylo Endgame.
Please let me know if you read any of these and your thoughts about them, and please don’t hesitate to ask me for more fic recs, or more questions from that ask page!
If any of the links don’t work, just let me know, and I’ll fix them!
God bless you, and stay safe and healthy!
Nadia

I saw that your asks are open 😄 You have any weird headcanons? Weird hcs are the best lmao.
Padme Amidala is a workaholic hot buttered mess of a human THAT I LOVE WITH ALL MY HEART.
Eating? What’s eating? 
Sleeping? Sleep is a crutch. 
This woman hasn’t showered in a week because she’s been researching precedent for five different bills she’s trying to push through a divisive and uncooperative senate. 
You ever seen that West Wing episode where Josh just...smells? That’s Padme. Like a lot of the time. 
And like. 
Thank god for Anakin. Because Anakin will feed her. And suggest that she might be tired. Possibly with his abs. The only way to get her attention when she is on a roll like this is to be shirtless. 
Sometimes? He has to get totally naked, because otherwise she just will not notice. 
How do you think Palpetine really found they were together? He walked into her office when Anakin was dropping trou to get her to “put down the seventeen datapads and eat the soup, Padme!” 
The only reason she got her shit together is because she got pregnant. And she had to.

For the ask game: Peony?
peony: what is something that you wish your parents could’ve told you?
So much.  But I guess mostly - you don’t have to be to be perfect to be good.  You aren’t stupid for not having straight A’s, you aren’t mediocre because you aren’t the absolute best.  Being expected to always be the best really fucked me over long term.
CUTE BOTANICAL ASKS!!

Here’s your Random™ Asks (I’ve decided to send everyone two, in case someone isn’t comfortable answering a particular one. You can answer one or both)—“What would your dream home look like?” and/or “What was the funniest thing that ever happened to you?”
“What would your dream home look like?”
Hm...to be honest, I haven’t really thought a lot about this.  I don’t think I’d want it to be too lavish or complicated, maybe something in the suburbs (cities are great, but they’re loud).  I’d really like it if there are some musical instruments in my home, so I can always play things.
I think for me, home really depends on the people you’re with - so as long as I’m with people I love, I’ll be happy :)
“What was the funniest thing that ever happened to you?”
One time, I was asked about the funniest thing that ever happened to me, and obviously in that moment, I forgot literally every single remotely humorous thing that’s ever happened in my life, so I thought I could give a (not really) funny answer instead.

Number game — 10?
10. Best thing to say in an elevator of strangers?
This question immediately makes me think of that “that’s my wife” vine w the lady who has a bottle of wine with a glass on top so she can just. Drink directly out of the bottle? Idk man that vines a mood
Ideally nothing because I’m horribly introverted and have a terrible time engaging with strangers in any way, however, I find the Idea of saying something like “I imagine you’re wondering why I gathered you all here today” hilarious. Or like, pulling out a big bolt or something and saying “man I wonder where this came from”

Is the character thingy still open? If so, Obi-Wan?
1: sexuality headcanon: Heterosexual, probably wouldn’t mind polyamory, only with women who lowkey (or high key) want to kill him. 
(Bonus Bedroom HC: Will he keep his partner on the edge of release for hours? Yes. Yes he will. Also, if somebody spanked him he probably wouldn’t be mad about it.)
2: otp: Obi-Wan/Satine. They’re just so IN LOVE, and they’re just so bitchy about it. I love it.
3: brotp: Obi-Wan and Anakin. Such brothers. And Obi-Wan really does consider Anakin his family, and he’s so proud before everything goes wrong. He’s not supposed to have attachments, but he really can’t help it with Anakin. They are brothers, and bonded forever. 
4: notp: Obi-Wan/Anakin. This implies that Obi-Wan groomed Anakin to be his romantic partner from jump. And that’s not in character for Obi-Wan. Again, Obi-Wan is such a good man. He would never do that to Anakin. 
5: first headcanon that pops into my head: He learns to cook because he sees how happy it makes Padme when Anakin cooks for her. So he learns, and cooks for Satine. It makes him feel really good. 
6: one way in which I relate to this character: We both a very dedicated to doing a good job in the things that we tackle. We take pride in our work! 
7: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character:  His hair in Phantom Menace. Oofta. 
8: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? 99% cinnamon roll. 1% problematic fave. I think Obi-Wan did some things that were not...the best decisions sometimes. I LOVE Obi-Wan and while I think he’s mostly a cinnamon roll, I also know that there were things he could have done to make things better. Maybe not subvert the eventual outcomes, but...y’know.

Oh my goodness, thanks for sending this in, @the-coruscanti-blogger​!  Sorry about the delay on this - I started doing this and then it got stuck in my drafts and I completely forgot to get back to it xD
Anyways, five things I like about myself:
NUMBER ONE:
I have overcome a lot.  I always think about what’s happened in recent years, with going from nearly failing out of pharmacy school (I never said it outright, but yeah, I was that close) to having to basically complete a degree and an optional minor in the year and a half that followed.  All while having to figure out how to come to terms with everything that happened, and not even being sure if I made the right choice, until the payoff came with me getting my job last year.
And that’s, like, just one thing that I’ve overcome (though there are so many things tied into that one thing, but).  I’m a work in progress, even now, but I’ve become a lot more accepting of that.  And I think making that realization is one of the most important things you can do.
NUMBER TWO:
I’m great at logic/reasoning!  I’m a huge math nerd (I mean, I literally have a math degree).  If something like...makes sense to me, then I can figure it out pretty easily.  I’ve always enjoyed puzzles, to the point that I’m a bit obsessed.  TLDR; I’m a literal nerd.
NUMBER THREE:
I have some artistic inclination, with music and writing.  And I definitely improved as a writer over the past few years, and I really like where my writing is right now (even though I know I have a long way to go with it).  And it’s great to see that other people like my writing too? (thank you ahhhh)
And music!  I’ve been playing instruments/singing/whatever since I was very young - it’s just a natural part of me now.  And I love that I have that in my life, even as an adult.
NUMBER FOUR:
I’m a nice person?  Or at least I try my best to be - and I think that’s really important.
NUMBER FIVE:
I like that I’m staying connected to things I enjoy - I think that’s something a lot of people my age lose track of, either because of school or work or just life in general.  I get that there are always things that get in the way, but at least just having the chance to write about the things I like and connect with people: I love that I do that.
Anyways, this was fun! :)

TAH-DAHHH!!!
@the-coruscanti-blogger, thank you so much for letting me use this as a prompt, and for the invite to use your other posts as inspiration! I’m so grateful.
I’m so happy with it.
I’m just kicking myself that I didn’t get the double belt and the cutout on the back of ‘Soka’s dress. The pic I was using off of Wookieepedia didn’t really show it, and like an idiot, I briefly forgot Google existed. But I’m still happy with it.

Tag Game!!!!!
Thank you, @the-coruscanti-blogger, for tagging me!
Okay, here we go!!
Name: Nadia of oh-great-authoress!
Gender: Female.
Star Sign: Like @the-coruscanti-blogger said, this is technically against my religion, but I do know that I am a Virgo.
Height: Over 5 feet, I can’t remember the exact number.
Sexuality: Straight.
Favorite Book: Uhh, difficult question. How about top three?
“The Lord of the Rings” by J. R. R. Tolkien (In my opinion it counts as one book. Yes, I know I’m technically cheating.)
“Washington's Spies: The Story of America's First Spy Ring” by Alexander Rose (They even made a tv series based on the events in this book called Turn: Washington’s Spies!) [Yes, I am a history nerd. :)]
“Niamh and the Hermit” by Emily C. A. Snyder (This book is a hidden treasure. It’s an adventure/epic quest/love story that is just… *chef’s kiss* perfection. It’s along the lines of LotR, so if you like that, you’ll probably love this.)
Current Time: Uhh, unholily late, or unholily early, depending on your outlook.
Average Amount of Sleep: Outside of quarantine, it varies from 8+ to 0, depending on the day.
Dogs or Cats: Both. Both is good.
# of Blankets You Sleep With: One thick one in colder weather, and two thin ones in warmer weather. I know it’s weird I use more when it’s warm, but it works for me.
Dream Job: World Domination. Hahaha, I’m joking. Or am I?…
Tumblr media
Favorite Animal: Foxes. Look at the YouTube channel SaveAFox. You’ll thank me later. Go.
Blog Established: January of 2020!
# of Followers: As of when I post this, 31!
Reason for URL: I hang around music nerds, and I am a bit… okay, I’m a music nerd. It’s a sort of oblique reference to a Gilbert and Sullivan song called “Minerva! Oh, Hear Me!” It’s a warping of one of the lyrics, which says, “Oh, goddess wise” I couldn’t remember the actual lyric, (I forgot google existed) and in my memory, I changed it to “Oh, great goddess”, which sounded right. Again, I forgot google existed. And I have a dramatic streak a mile wide. (Or a couple of miles wide, depends on who you ask) In addition, I like to write, a lot, (I also hate it a lot sometimes) so that turned into @oh-great-authoress!
Something I’m Grateful For: My faith, my amazing and wonderful parents, my grandparents, my and my family’s health and life, my friends irl and on tumblr, sunrises, music, my interests and fandoms, tumblr, and all the amazing people I’ve met here.
Followers I’m Tagging: @megsann13, @batmantaking-hobbits2gallifrey, @ruinofsilver, @fromsolowithlove, @rainmakesyouwhole, @demichrising, @cptdorkery, @lynntheninja, @loveandmusic67, @magic-and-the-macabre, and @lenacs!
Questions I’m Adding (Feel free to ignore my added questions)
Favorite Pairings
Favorite Season
Favorite Color(s)
Favorite Actresses and Actors
My Answers to My Own Questions
Question 1.
Favorite Pairings
Reylo — Ben Solo/Rey — Star Wars (I don’t need to say any more about this.)
Gingerflower — Armitage Hux/Rose Tico — Star Wars (Okay, guys, guys, guys, hear me out, okay? Please don’t come @ me. I got sucked into this via Reylo Modern AU fanfics, and I went down a rabbit hole. From there, I read some canon-divergent fic, and it got me thinking. I mean TRoS didn’t even obliquely mention Finn/Rose, so, I thought, why the kriff not. Why shouldn’t Rose “Save What We Love” Tico get a romance/definitively happy ending via fanfic. We already had one Enemies-to Lovers pairing in the Sequel Trilogy, what’s one more? And when you add in Hux’s “I’m the Spy!”? This kinda writes itself. Resistance Spy-Master Rose Tico? Why not. Plus, that deleted scene from TLJ did kind of open this whole thing up.)
Farawyn — Faramir/Eowyn — LotR (If you haven’t read the books or watched the Extended Editions of the films, Faramir and Eowyn end up together, which is why they’re standing next to each other in the Theatrical Edition of RotK, at the end. In the books, they have practically an entire chapter dedicated to them and their romance. And boy, does Faramir have game.)
Fitzwilliam Darcy/Elizabeth Bennet — Pride & Prejudice (I also don’t need to say any more about this.)
Col. Brandon/Marianne Dashwood — Sense & Sensibility (Watch the 1995 adaptation and tell me this is not pairing gold.)
Mary/Matthew — Downton Abbey (Yes, the Season 3 finale broke my heart, thank you.)
Dramione — Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger — Harry Potter (Again, please don’t come @ me, this pairing is basically Reylo in a Harry Potter AU.)
Bathena — Bobby Nash/Athena Grant — 911 (Yes, I do watch this. I actually didn’t see this coming. My Mom saw it coming before I did. But once it happened, I was like, oh yeah, this is my jam.)
Ventrobi — Obi-Wan Kenobi/Asajj Ventress — Star Wars (Okay, yes, I am a sucker for Enemies-to Lovers, okay? And this is Enemies-to-Lovers gold, alright?
Christopher Pike/Number One (Una) — Star Trek (Got into this ship via fanfic, but Discovery/Short Treks well and truly cemented this for me.)
Question 2.
Favorite Season
Fall. Without question. The weather becomes temperate, and in early fall you still get the pretty flowers of summer, but with cooler weather, and in full-out-fall, you get to wear pretty sweaters and boots and scarves, and you get the trees changing color.
Question 3.
Favorite Color(s)
Pink
Teal
Green
Blue
Purple
Question 4.
Favorite Actresses and Actors
Adam Driver (Guys. Come on.)
Daisy Ridley (Guys. Come on.)
Domnhall Gleeson (I liked him even before he was General Hux, guys, he was great in a movie called “About Time” and “Goodbye Christopher Robin”.)
Kelly Marie Tran (She was amazing as Rose, I still feel bad she didn’t get more screen time, especially after what happened to her after TLJ.)
Ewan McGregor (Um, he’s Obi-Flipping-Wan Kenobi.)
Letitia Wright (She was great as Shuri in “Black Panther”.)
Danai Gurira (She was Awesome as General Okoye in “Black Panther. Note the capital A.)
Colin Firth (P&P ‘95 and The King’s Speech. That’s all I have to say.)
Alan Rickman (S&S ‘95 + Harry Potter + Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Amazing performances. I mean, truly amazing. Nuanced, and just plain hilarious in the case of Robin Hood. His performance as Col. Brandon just pulls at the heartstrings with every single expression in his eyes, and no matter how you feel about Severus Snape, you cannot deny that Alan, God rest his soul, played him brilliantly.)
Hayden Christensen (He was The Chosen One.)
Bruce Greenwood (His portrayal of Captain Pike in Star Trek: 2009 was the reason I wrote and actually finished a fic.)
Anson Mount (His portrayal of Captain Pike in Star Trek: Discovery was the reason I wrote and actually finished more fic.)
And that’s it! I hope I have not ticked off anyone. If I have, I apologize for the ticking off, but not my opinions. I hope you can respect them, or at least ignore them.
Stay Well, People!
