It's been hard to make time for fanfic, my joy. So I picked a short one to read before bed.

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.
