@organanation wondered if I had any Han/Leia bed-sharing fics lying around. While I have a “We’re so cold let’s strip each other and have hot sex” PWP and a “While we’re in bed do you wanna get hitched?” ficlet, I didn’t find what she was looking for. So I did a five-minute (that turned into lunch and cooking) ficlet. It doesn’t quite hit the UST spot, so I might have to take another crack at it some other time.



“No.”

“I’m afraid so, your worship.” Han tried not to grin but it wasn’t a battle he was very invested in winning. “It’s not my fault the main water conduit broke right above your bed.”

“It’s your ship! Shouldn’t you maintain it? A conduit like that should be replaced before it corrodes enough to create a problem like this–but no, not on your junk heap!”

Han glared. “Hey–the Falcon’s got a lot of parsecs on her, but you don’t have to be rude. Besides, I already told you I’m more than happy to share until we get back to base.”

Leia crossed her arms. “No. That’s unacceptable.”

Han shrugged. “Well, you can try to bunk with Chewie, but honestly, he kicks in his sleep.”

Leia said, “The decent thing to do would be to offer to share with Chewbacca yourself and let me have your bunk.”

Chewbacca, who had been silent up to this point, shook his head with an emphatic no.

Han nodded. “I know, I know–but you see how she is!”

Chewbacca shook his head again made a pointed comment.

“No, she does not have a point!”

In the end, of course, it was decided that neither of them could share with Chewbacca because the bed just wasn’t big enough for a full-grown Wookie and anyone else.

Getting ready for bed was by far the most awkward part of the whole affair. There wasn’t much room in the cabin, so every action was an exercise in moving around each other, of containing elbows, of failing not to look–there was nowhere not to look, not really.

And then they settled into bed and maneuvered elbows and heads and limbs–and suddenly they fit, Leia tucked into Han’s side and Han’s arm around her, as if they always slept like this. They both froze in place the moment they realized–but it was so comfortable that neither said anything, afraid that if they spoke out loud they’d end up fighting and have to move to save face.

It didn’t take long for them to fall asleep. They woke more deeply wrapped in each other, and there was a moment when they forgot to be embarrassed, Han tightening his arms around Leia, and Leia resting into his chest.

Leia’s bunk was dry by nightfall and though both of them proclaimed loudly how good it was they wouldn’t have to share another night, they lingered in the corridor for just a few seconds too long before saying goodnight.

Title: Stick it to The Man
Fandom: Star Wars
Category: AU, Humor, Fix-It
Words: 771 (It’s tiny!)
Summary: Leia kicks ass as a mom. She has the Force. Her son has nightmares and an unhealthy obsession with all things Imperial and Dark Side. She has a Bad Feeling about that. Han agrees: it’s time for a Family Vacation.
Notes: Written as a fix-it for @knightedrogue, who asked me for this so long ago that I wrote it, decided it wasn’t really what she wanted, came back today and said, “Screw it. She’ll like it even if she was expecting something else.”


Read it: AO3 or FFN

I was tagged by @shinewithalltheuntold​ for this quite some time ago. She didn’t include any instructions, but I gathered the idea was to name my top five ships of all time. I was going to try to do this in chronological order, but my very first entry on the list made me realize it belongs in two spots chronologically. So in no particular order:


1. Han/Leia. I hadn’t seen Star Wars until the re-releases in theaters. (I know!) I immediately fell in total and complete love with the movies and with Han and Leia in particular. That being said, I didn’t write fanfic for them until college when @knightedrogue​ dragged me back into fandom.


2. Jarod/Miss Parker. Oh man. The Pretender was my first real fandom (my attempt to join Sliders fandom fizzled rather spectacularly and was doomed by dial-up). I shipped them SO HARD guys and I wrote really bad self-insert fic that I never posted and I was so young!


3. John/Aeryn. @knightedrogue​ and I watched through Farscape and we loved it but we also loved talking to each other so sometimes we missed whole scenes and had to rewind… but John/Aeryn scenes were sacred.


4. Sam/Jack. Forbidden love! Honor and duty! Lots of Aliens Made Them Do It! Stargate fandom when I was involved was a mild land, recovering nicely (for the most part) from the violent shipper wars of earlier seasons. The friends I made led me into the wide green valleys of the multishipping fen, where I found so many lovely secondary pairings that I knew I’d never go back–but Sam/Jack was my first love.


5. Emma/Regina (Swan Queen). When I fell for them (it took me a while–it usually does) I fell HARD. It’s also, if you note my previous four selections, my only non-canon pairing. GUYS NON-CANON OTP SHIPPING SUCKS. Just sayin’. I’d say I’m never doing it again but it appears that I might be a lot slightly more inclined to femslash pairings than previously thought, so… yeah.

Title: Four Walls and a Blaster
Fandom: Star Wars
Rating/Warnings: PG (Character Death.)
Characters: Han. Leia.
Summary: Han left, and Leia couldn't fault him. What might have happened if he never came back at the battle of Yavin.
Author's Notes: Well, this is awkward. [livejournal.com profile] knightedrogue, this was supposed to be finished and posted much, MUCH earlier this last year. Hope you like it, even if it has been delayed for far too long. My sincere gratitude to [livejournal.com profile] annerbhp, who helped see the light of day by refusing to let it die several times, and whose birthday gave me a new deadline.

Title: The Glass Falcon
Fandom: Star Wars
Pairing: Han/Leia
Warnings: Mentions murder, intrigue, madness, and has GAPING PLOT HOLES!
Summary: What if Han were a private detective, and Leia just happened to be his new client? What if it was told in first-person noir style? What if Chewie could speak English and was called Charles? This is what happens when I get the desire to write something fun with plot.
Author's Notes: I'm not kidding abou the gaping plot holes. This story, while considerably better put together than another SW long story I shall not name, was written over the course of many months, during which time the story evolved in my head quite a bit. I, however, still think it's amazingly fun. It's not at all about a Glass Falcon. Just thought I'd warn you.

It's a longish one, so it can be found on my website: The Glass Falcon.
