and they can't figure out how he's communicating with her because they don't know about the Force Bond 😂

she IS—but she could have been pretty *and* had an interesting character arc! 😭

this is all reminding me of the reylo fic I always wanted to write where Ben has ladies pursuing political marriages with him because he’s the ruler of the galaxy and he blurts out I’M ALREADY MARRIED to get rid of them and because he is in his mind and the rumors get back to Rey

so is the whole *first order* like WHO married the SUPREME LEADER we need to blackmail and/or arrange a security detail for her. and meanwhile Kylo keeps having to double down and come up with details about their fictional secret wedding?

I need to stop spawning oneshot concepts and work on my longfic but it's so hard when I have ideas like "the parsec high club"

he's never used their safeword during a scene, but one day the verbal fighting gets a little too personal and he blurts it out.

*points to where he's been doodling calligraphy options for save the date cards*

if so: I'm thinking that in his mind it doesn't count as a kiss—just a momentary, unfortunate collision of lips, because there's only one person he wants to have a first kiss with.

omg 🤣 he's like "yeah, go on, try to escape, whatever, I need to eat an orange just in case the "someone else" I *actually* care about shows up and wants to kiss me."

hehehe. she seems to think he's passionately pushing her to the floor rather than violently shoving her away!

absolutely! if I see it I'll use it as inspiration (heLLO king of naboo Kylo Ren) but I'm not invested in having anything particularly good come from dlf.

Kylo looks like he's getting his first decent sleep in a decade, and Rey looks so happy and content to be cuddling him. I can't even! 🥹🥹

🍺 #reylofic #dyadprompts

foam.

Benjamin Solo’s drink of choice is a fine wine—preferably a Chandrillan red, but a dry, oaky white will do in a pinch.

It’s a sign of how badly his day has gone that he’s ended up in a craft beer pub, staring into a disconcertingly large layer of foam atop the IPA he’d ordered at random.

“Why is there so much … froth?” he asks the bartender. He’s trying not to look too long at her long-lashed hazel eyes or the perky little tits (two perfect mouthfuls much more appealing than this beer) under her tight black t-shirt. With the way today is going, she’d probably upend the beer on his head and have him kicked out of the pub forever (possibly no great loss aside from the fact that he’d no longer be able to not-look at her).

She raises a skeptical, unimpressed eyebrow. “It’s the sign of a good pour. And it’s called head, not froth.”

Her face softens as his shoulders slump. “Hey, are you okay? You’re giving off some real doom-and-gloom vibes.”

It takes Ben a moment to process her question, after his unruly mind sees fit to fixate on the words giving and head in close proximity.

“Bad day,” he mumbles.

She flicks her towel over a lithe shoulder and leans against the bartop. “Aww, poor baby,” she coos. (Why does he like that?) “Tell me about it?”

ACCURATE.

I’m torn between being SO mad and laughing at the contrast between Tava’s expressions in the second and third panels. 🥲

secret lore about me: I have multiple professional connections who work with Star Wars IP (no, none of them know about my fic writing), and ALL of them are women. heck, half of them are PoC women!

Tom @darthinternous.bsky.social · 1d

Random fun fact of the day - women are the reason #StarWars #publishing exists. And the reason it has been so successful that it could endure as it has for so many decades.

(I'm an expert on this stuff)
