First of all, thank you for creating for me! I have no doubt that I'll enjoy whatever you end up making, and I look forward to seeing it!! The ideas below are generally suggestions; so long as you stick to my DNWs please feel free to stray as far from what I've written as you'd like! Feel free to also take a look at my dear creator letters for previous exchanges, some of that might be relevant! (Also, I apologize for the font differences. I never understand how stuff ends up changing sizes partway through.) I'll admit that some of this is pulled from last year's SWRP Ex directly; I'm too lazy not to reuse my old stuff if it's still relevant.

Firstly, some general likes and DNWs, in no particular order.

Likes: hair braiding/hair care, bedsharing, cuddling, AUs (both canon and otherwise), couples that are obviously friends as well, fluff!!!, h/c is fine (focus on the hurt aspect is totally fine, please just follow it up with comfort unless otherwise specified), slice of life, family fic, world building, asexual characters/relationships, get together AND established relationship fics, gender/sexuality headcanons, fake dating/relationship, FWBs (especially if it evolves into ~feelings~ but that isn't required), wlw (and therefore, rule 63 so long as it turns it into a wlw ship), soulmate aus, M/E rated content for f/f ships (PWP fine but not preferred), exploration of gender and how it differs for alien species (whether or not that involves the physical side is up to you, just please abide by my DNWs)

DNWs: a/b/o, dubcon/noncon, incest, underage, significant age differences/power differentials, kink, m/f or m/m smut (f/f is okay!), cheating, major violence, unhappy endings, anything Sith/Empire/Dark Side/First Order-positive, any master-padawan ships, character death (unless otherwise specified), unwanted pregnancies, graphic descriptions of birth, mpreg

Now... onto the ships! And I'm sorry this is,,, so long.

Tatooine Squad

• Owen/Beru
• Sabé/Beru
• Sabé/Owen/Beru
• Obi-Wan/Beru
• Obi-Wan/Owen/Beru
• Padmé/Owen/Beru

These are all pretty similar, when you get down to it, though I’m new to the idea of throwing Sabé and Padmé into the mix, so I’m particularly intrigued by those pairings. If Owen isn’t in the ship, please either imagine he died for some reason (sad) or that he and Beru have an open relationship.

For all of these, I feel like Luke is a pretty integral part of their relationship, because raising a child always takes a large amount of your focus. How does that play out with Padmé, Owen, and Beru? Are both of the twins there? Are neither? Did Padmé end up on their doorstep after the Republic fell, because she had been there once before and they had been kind to her, and Yoda wanted to take her children and separate them from her and one another? With Sabé, how did she find them? Is she looking over Luke? Was it an accident?

Naboo & Co.

Padmé/Handmaiden(s)  This had me gleefully rubbing my hands together the moment I saw it. There’s so much potential here. While I’d be happy with individual pairings, from both TPM and AOTC, such as Padmé/Sabé and Padmé/Dormé, I’m also down for poly shipping. 

This is one prompt I would gladly accept PWP for (though, for the sake of my squicks, let’s pretend that everyone is of age, even if it means tweaking canon timelines a bit). I’m honestly intrigued by any sort of rituals (sexual or otherwise) that might exist on Naboo regarding a monarch and their guardians… Maybe something during a queen’s last days, and the handing over of power (with the handmaidens as the symbolic stand in?). Basically, as someone more concise than me summed it up, a throne room (or other location) orgy (just be mindful of the DNWs!).

(However, I’ll make a slight amendment to the kink DNW here: light restraint, very light choking (like, really nothing more than gentle pressure on someone’s throat), some hair pulling, and light nail scratching are all okay. Pleasure that edges on pain, please, rather than outright pain. So light on the kink it's still practically vanilla, lol. But if this is too specific, feel free to skip over it entirely.)

Alternatively, I’d be just as happy with something sweet and soft between Padmé and any one or few of her handmaidens, either when their young during her reign, or once she’s a senator. Really I’m just gay for Padmé and all the rest of these ladies, so have fun and I’m sure I’ll also have fun.

Dormé/Sabé  Would love something that takes place either during AOTC/ROTS era, or after the fall of the Republic. Do they mourn Padmé? Do they meet again years later, both working for the Rebellion in their own ways? Do they bond over helping Padmé as a Senator and eventually fall in love?

Saché/Yané  Similar to the last one. What was it like, being left behind during the blockade? What happened to them after Padmé was no longer queen? What did they do after the death of their queen and the birth of the Empire?

Cordé/Obi-Wan  Lumping this one and the next one in here because of the handmaidens. Honestly, I’m down for some Obi-Wan whump here when Cordé dies in AOTC, but I’d also like to see how they met, what their relationship was like, and all that fun jazz. Or, if Cordé survives (though badly injured?), how do she and Obi-Wan cope with the near miss and her potential long term injuries?

Dormé/Obi-Wan  Maybe something happens between them during AOTC while Anakin and Padmé are staring heart eyed at each other? Maybe something after the fall of the Republic, where they stumble across each other again by happenstance? For this and the Cordé one, I’m happy to see your take on Obi-Wan and the Code, whether he feels he’s going against it, he experiences love but not attachment, or if it’s more along the lines of FWB so he’s not really breaking whatever interpretation of the code you decide to roll with.

Alderaan & Co.

Bail/Breha  Quite possibly my favorite Star Wars ship. How did they meet? How did they handle raising Leia? Their last moments on Alderaan? What if they survived? What if they raised both the twins? You could give me anything with these two and I’d be as happy as a clam

Breha/Sabé  I’ll be honest, I saw this in the tag and was intrigued as hell. I’d love something when Leia was growing up; Breha and Bail have an open relationship, Sabé is there to act as Leia’s tutor, and between meetings talking about Leia’s strengths and weaknesses and bemoaning how troublesome she is sometimes, they fall in love! (Or at least a very good friendship that also sometimes includes sex). I will say that I also love the idea of Sabé not knowing, at first, that Leia is Padmé’s daughter… how does that conversation go?

Breha/Padmé  Logistically I have no clue how this would work with the canon timeline, but I don’t care. (Open relationship with Bail and Breha again please; I don’t want to get rid of Bail outright, even if he doesn’t appear in the fic.) Do they become friends when Padmé is queen and that friendship blossoms into love once Padmé is a Senator? Does Padmé survive and hide out on Alderaan after ROTS? Do they both survive and meet years later in the rebellion, after Bail dies on Alderaan during the Death Star attack?

Leia/Dalné  This ship has so much potential!! They're about the same age and feeling similar pressures, as queen and princess (and budding rebel). What happens after the events of Leia, Princess of Alderaan? Do they stay in touch? Do they perhaps have a teenage-hormone-driven fling when Leia is on Naboo (again, no underage that will go past T please)? Later, when Leia is trying to learn more about her mother, does she return to Naboo and meet Dalné again?

Leia/Evaan  I loved Evaan from the moment I saw her in the comic. Does she become princess of new Alderaan? How does that affect her relationship with Leia? (Does Leia act as the Senator for the planet once the New Republic is founded?) Do they have a heated, tension filled moment during the events of the comic that we don’t see (I’m always down for characters angrily making out in a storage closet and then realizing that they have, gasp, feelings)?

Also, from last year’s letter: What if they met on Alderaan, before it was destroyed? Or, where do the Alderaanian refugees end up settling? Does Leia go to visit them? Or maybe a missing scene from the comic? Again, I'm a sucker for hair and world building, so feel free to play with that if you'd like.

Oola/Leia  Let Oola have a moment of softness, please, I’m begging you. I’d love it if she survived Jabba’s palace, but it’s not a requirement.

Amilyn/Leia  Ah, I love these two! Both as young women, first settling into their roles in the senate/the rebellion, and as older women (as we see them in tlj), and all the years in between! Past or background-Han/Leia is fine, so long as, if they're together at the time of the fic, they have an open relationship.

Enfys

• Enfys/Leia

• Enfys/Ahsoka

• Jyn/Enfys

Please, again, no underage here. I don't have any particular requests for the ships, but I'd love to see an exploration of the women of the rebellion and their relationships with one another, especially before the events of Scarif/Yavin, before the rebellion cells have been brought together. Or, alternatively, how they integrate? How do they learn to work together? Mostly I would just like women being badass and gay in space haha

That was from last year, but I’ve also added in Cassian this year. How do they potentially work together as the rebellion is first beginning? Cassian is a spy—how does that work between them?

Qi’ra

• Qi’ra/Ahsoka

• Leia/Qi’ra

• Cassian/Qi’ra

• Jyn/Qi’ra

• Enfys/Qi’ra

With the exception of Cassian, these are all women, so gay it up, really (though, be careful of age differences please, it’s a squick for me). I’m not necessarily looking for Qi’ra to be redeemed after the events of Solo; instead, I’m interested in seeing how she interacts with all these characters in light of her lack of redemption and her continued alignment with Crimson Dawn?

Ahsoka

Sabé/Ahsoka  Someone nominated this last year and I was immediately smitten. I’d love something in the years between the Ahsoka novel and ANH. Do they run into each other running missions for the rebellion? Do they both use the Fulcrum callsign? Is it a bit more ordinary than that?

Kaeden/Ahsoka  Do we get more than what we got in the book?? Do they meet again years later and find there's still a spark?? There's so much time between the novel and ANH, I'd love to see your thoughts.

Jyn/Ahsoka  The age difference is a little iffy for me, but so long as they’re both overage it’s fine. I’d like to see Jyn survive Scarif and begin working in earnest with the Rebellion—does she meet Ahsoka on a base? Does she hear chatter about Fulcrum—the Fulcrum she heard about with the Partisans—and assume they’re talking about Cassian or someone else, until she meets Ahsoka? Something else I’m not thinking of??

Hondo

• Hondo/Sabé
• Hondo/Obi-Wan
• Lando/Hondo/Han

I honestly have no excuse for having three separate Hondo ships on here lol, other than the fact that I think he’s fun. I’d love crack treated seriously here (though with Han/Lando/Hondo, I don’t know how seriously you can treat them haha). For Sabé, I’m intrigued by how she could possibly meet Hondo in the first place (as a spy for Padmé or, later, the Rebellion? Something else?). 

And for Obi-Wan, I would love him hitting a low spot during TCW and Hondo being the only one there to pick up the pieces (or, perhaps, the only one Obi-Wan can relax around, because he doesn’t want to burden any of his friends in the Order or the Senate, and he doesn’t want to put too much pressure on his troopers). Same with after the birth of the Empire—is it the only place for Obi-Wan to go? Do they run into each other by accident? (Even though I’ve already received a fic that’s Hondo and Obi-Wan raising Luke as a space pirate, I’m going to be greedy and ask for it again, because I can never get enough of that premise).

x/OC

Apailana/OFC This could be one of Apailana's handmaidens, or perhaps someone she meets while her decoy is acting as Apailana. How does Apailana handle the fall of the Republic, since the new Emperor is from her homeworld? How does that affect her ability to rule or protect her people? If we're going with Legends stuff, perhaps she falls in love with one of the Jedi padawan she's harboring after Order 66? I know Wookieepedia says she dies in 18 BBY but maybe she doesn't??? 

Annileen/OFC I'd love to see Annie fall in love with someone after the events of the Kenobi novel! Perhaps another non-traditional student in her university program? Or someone on Alderaan, once she settles there with her kids? 

Shmi/OFC I've seen some awesome prompts for this pairing in the past, and honestly I'm just gonna stick with the trend. Does Shmi go out into the desert and meet the Force personified as a woman? Does Shmi have a wife who helps her raise Ani? Does she get freed and meet someone wherever she ends up??

A'Yark/OC I was so stoked when it was revealed that A'Yark was a female Tusken!! The novel and Wookieepedia have plenty to say about Tusken gender roles, but I'd love to see your take on it, as well as how Tusken gender and society works in general! World building!! The OC can be male or female, but I would prefer that they're Tusken as well, to fit with book. But otherwise, the world is your oyster!!! 

Jyn/OFC Would love to see something set pre-R1 for her, or even after the events of the movie where Jyn survived Scarif and fell in love with a rebel dedicated to the cause (I love Cassian dearly, but I love ladies being gay more, sorry my dude). If it's pre-R1, did they meet after Jyn was abandoned by Saw? Was it a young, ill-advised romance during her time with the Partisans? Something I'm not thinking of?

Breha/OFC Perhaps in her university days, before she met Bail, Breha has been in love with a young woman. Maybe this young woman was a bit of a hellion, which would explain some of Breha's advice to Leia about falling in love! Honestly I'd love to see anything here.

&

Original Stressed-Out Prequel Senator/Original Loyal Aide Trying to get Them To Relax

• Honestly just have fun with these two, I'm not really sure what else to tell you on this one lol. Oh! Other than alien and human characters are cool here, and I'm fine with cross-species relationships!

First of all, thank you for creating for me! I have no doubt that I'll enjoy whatever you end up making, and I look forward to seeing it!! The ideas below are generally suggestions; so long as you stick to my DNWs please feel free to stray as far from what I've written as you'd like! I'm a writer, so my brain naturally comes up with prompts that are probably better suited to writing rather than art, but, again, feel free to take as much or as little from my suggestions as you'd like if you're an artist! Feel free to also take a look at my dear creator letter for last year's Rarepair Exchange, some of that might be relevant!

Firstly, some general likes and DNWs, in no particular order.

Likes: hair braiding/hair care, bedsharing, cuddling, AUs (both canon and otherwise), couples that are obviously friends as well, fluff!!!, h/c is fine (emphasis on the comfort is preferred though), slice of life, family fic, world building, asexual characters/relationships, get together AND established relationship fics, gender/sexuality headcanons, fake dating/relationship, FWBs (especially if it evolves into ~feelings~ but that isn't required), wlw (and therefore, rule 63 so long as it turns it into a wlw ship), soulmate aus

DNWs: a/b/o, dubcon/noncon, incest, underage, significant age differences/power differentials, kink, explicit porn/PWP (anything you might rate M is fine, so long as it complies with the other DNWs), cheating, major violence, unhappy endings, anything Sith/Empire/Dark Side/First Order-positive, any master-padawan ships, character death (unless otherwise specified), unwanted pregnancies, graphic descriptions of birth, mpreg

I think that's everything, but I'll make a note with the date if I edit to add anything to either of those lists. And now onto some of the specific ship stuff!
