She/her. 20s. Here you'll find a mix of video games, writing stuff, and whatever else comes up. Main fandoms are Star Wars, Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, and Devil May Cry.
I'm Mari, and I've been here on tumblr for over a decade now. Nowadays I mostly post about various Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Devil May Cry games, plus some bonus Star Wars, but you'll find a good dose of whatever other games, quotes, etc. pique my interest too.
If you're wondering if I can be found anywhere else or think my name sounds familiar, that's because I go by Mariyekos just about everywhere. This includes my AO3 (and now largely abandoned ffnet account), my Bluesky, my Twitter, and technically Discord, though I'll probably respond better to new messages here. Thanks for stopping by, and feel free to message me/shoot over an ask if you ever want to chat. I can't promise I'll respond right away, but I'll do my best to get to it when I can.
If you're interested in some of my longform posts (meta, lore notes, fave fics, etc), here's a link to to a post compiling some of my favorites. If you want to see my about me, you can click here, or select the ii in my sidebar if on desktop.

This game rules. Everyone is everyone's narrative parallel/foil. A lady shoots a guy with a rocket launcher and he rides the rocket like a skateboard. It's mind-numbingly difficult. It has the most awesomesauce opening sequence of all time that shoots the moon like a thousand times. Every time you think it's about to become cringy, it commits so hard that it loops back around to being awesome. They have themes On Purpose. Vergil is finally a character who exists, the world will never be the same. Dante is wearing a coat with no shirt under it for almost the entire game. Dante says cool one-liners and attack enemies with a guitar. Dante cries at the loss of his brother, even though he spent the entire game trying to stop him. Lady cries at the loss of her father, even though she spent the entire game trying to stop him. Vergil has spent so long trying to become his father, yet in the end he has become his antithesis. Dante has spent so long resenting his father, yet in the end he has become the inheritor of his legacy. Dante reaches terminal velocity and gets eaten by a flying whale. Lady has like 3 different characters arcs and they all work. Everyone besides Lady is making jokes throughout the whole experience. The game thinks it's the coolest shit ever and it's right. Vergil and Dante's souls are at war but they still love each other so much. Dante tries to save Vergil and Vergil rejects any aid, instead choosing to fall to hell where we know he will undergo unfathomable torment. Vergil instinctually reaches for the amulet instead of the sword, signifying like a bajillion things but the two that immediately came to mind were him clinging on to his humanity and him viscerally needing a piece of his mother with him. Dante keeps the bloodstained glove Vergil sliced through. The villain is an evil human instead of a demon, emphasizing Lady's final lines that there are humans worse than any devil and devils who are capable of nobility. The good deeds and sins of the father aren't yours, but you must take responsibility for them regardless. Outside of 'Father', Vergil calls Sparda 'Daddy' and Dante calls Sparda 'Pop'.

#in the article it says that the sailboat sailors were concerned because they could not be towed quickly because of the kind of boat#so they asked Götheborg what type of ship they were and warned that they would not be able to go above a certain speed#and götheborg went ' we are also a sailboat. 50 meters length. no worries :) '#and the poor sailboat sailors were just like ' That's not possible. they have to be messing with us' and then the ship Rolled Up (via bunjywunjy)
I'm crying. Here's a photo of a sailor from the Götheborg watching over the little sailboat in tow:
From the story:
We repeatedly emphasized that we were aboard a small 8-meter sailboat, but the response was the same each time: "We are a 50-meter three-masted sailboat, and we offer our assistance in towing you to Paimpol." We were perplexed by the size difference between our two boats, as we feared being towed by a boat that was too large and at too fast a speed that could damage our boat.
The arrival of the Götheborg on the scene was rapid and surprising, as we did not expect to see a merchant ship from the East India Company of the XVIII century. This moment was very strange, and we wondered if we were dreaming. Where were we? What time period was it? The Götheborg approached very close to us to throw the line and pass a large rope. The mooring went well, and our destinies were linked for very long hours, during which we shared the same radio frequency to communicate with each other.
The crew of the Götheborg showed great professionalism and kindness towards us. They adapted their speed to the size of our boat and the weather conditions. We felt accompanied by very professional sailors. Every hour, the officer on duty of the Götheborg called us to ensure everything was going well.[...]
This adventure, very real, was an incredible experience for us. We were extremely lucky to cross paths with the Götheborg by chance and especially to meet such a caring crew.
Dear commander and crew of the Götheborg, your kindness, and generosity have shown that your ship is much more than just a boat. It embodies the noblest values of the sea, and we are honored to have had the chance to cross your path and benefit from your help.
"Our destinies were linked for very long hours" is just knocking me out.
Basically I got asked for what my recs are but like, Time Travel is my all time triple platinum favourite fanfiction trope. + I’ve read a disgusting amount of SW fic atp. So… I’m gonna make a whole focused list for it!
Ouch. This fic gets into Obi-Wan's poor mental health when a Padawan Obi-Wan time travels into the future and lands in Anakin's speeder, literally, in the middle of the clone wars.
Anakin wakes up with a young woman (Leia) in a cell (on the Death Star), she's claiming he just appeared out of thin air. When he went to sleep it was any other day on a campaign during the war...
Anakin & Obi-Wan from the opening of RotS switch with their counterparts during the battle of Naboo in TPM. Things quickly go off the rails in both time periods.
Backwards
seismic by Laeveteinn
2k, complete, obikin, oneshot, obi-wan travels
A short oneshot that focuses on RotS Obi-Wan travelling to early in AotC. Anakin is his creepily intense self we see in that movie, but focusing his attention on Obi-Wan.
Brave Young Men by Imagined
31k, complete, gen, heartwarming, anakin travels
You ever thought that Obi-Wan really needed someone by his side after losing Qui-Gon? Well in this fic the Force delivered him an adult Anakin from the future. Anakin learns a lot about everything Obi-Wan did for him in those early days of his apprenticeship that he was too young to understand at the time.
Vader time travels back to the Clone Wars. He and Obi-Wan talk and do *other* things. Vader tells Master what Anakin really needs to hear from him to change the future.
Leia is just helping Luke out because he asked, she doesn’t understand why it’s her the Force is sending back to the Clone Wars. Or why it seems to centred around Ahsoka- no Ahsoka, Obi-Wan and…and Anakin. She doesn’t want anything to do with him.
from this moment hangs eternity by EvanHart
21k, ongoing, anidala, fluff (kinda), (kid) luke travels
A Luke from an alternate future time travels to mid clone wars. He has some revelations to share that might just stun Anakin more than finding out he has a son...
there but for the grace of god by wanderlove
49k, complete, anidala, good jedi order, light crack, (kid) luke travels
A Luke who is being raised by Obi-Wan accidentally travels to part way through the Clone Wars. Anakin & Obi-Wan put two and two together and get six. This is obviously Obi-Wan's Code forbidden son.
A classic! And so very good. Vader finally kills his old Master on the Death Star, but it doesn't bring him the satisfaction he expects.
Then he wakes in the past, back at the end of the Clone Wars in his healthy body. He's going to get revenge on Kenobi, he is! Just...not yet.
SIthy Anakin & Obi-Wan happen to travel to the past before their & the Order's fall. Anakin & Obi-Wan of the present are tasked with keeping an eye on the duo. Things derail quickly.
Coming back and going forward by Enthusiastic_Enthusiast (🔒)
Vader's mind travels back to when he was still a Padawan. But he quickly finds his Master is not as he remembers. Obi-Wan is angry with him, and puts him firmly in his place despite Vader's best efforts to fight. (A very hot one shot!!!)
from a certain point of view by RagnarLothcat (🔒)
7k, complete, obikin, fix-it of sorts, obi-wan travels, 18+
Told from Anakin's perspective. He doesn't know the minute Obi-Wan changes, but it definitely happens. He starts acting so strange...
I was made to love you, made to find you by Meleth03
Somehow Obi-Wan and his Padawan end up in the past, in a time when he was still Qui-Gon's apprentice. A strange new relationship blooms between Anakin and the younger version of his Master as his suppressed feelings are finally able to fall on an acceptable target.
After the Rain by thedevilchicken
10k, complete, obikin, anakin travels, 18+
Vader's mind travels back to a specific mission during the Clone Wars and he decides to let a very different outcome happen between him and Obi-Wan on it.
A strangely wistful fic, but not quite angsty.
Anakin touches something he's not supposed to and now he and his lovers are in the past and have to figure out how to get home. (This is the first time I've ever seen this triad, and it's a fun change up).
Suicidal Misunderstandings by nevertheless_turtle
66k, ongoing, gen, heavy angst, hopeful, obi-wan travels
Ben's mind transfers back to the past in the middle of a bad trip, and he believes it's all a hallucination. It's lovely for a while, seeing Anakin again and the Jedi. But eventually he needs to wake up. When meditation doesn't work he has to resort to more extreme measures.
Fix-It
How to Save a Galactic Republic Without Really Trying by Sharp_Tongue
23k, complete, obikin, hopeful, obi-wan travels
This really scratches that time travel fix-it itch. It's very 'if only Obi-Wan had know to do this' fulfilling. Obi-Wan travels back far enough to course correct Anakin's training and change everything.
Devastation And Reform by Panakin_Crywalker (Series)
Both Vader Anakin and Obi-Wan have their minds of three years post-Mustafar transported back to immediately after Attack of the Clones. Anakin is wildly traumatised by everything that has happened. Obi-Wan attempts to rebuild their relationship as the two of them set out to stop Sidious before he can ever enact his plans.
Ashes To Ashes, Dust To Dust by Livsy
36k, complete, gen, light angst, obi-wan travels
Obi-Wan is acting... a little different, and it's driving Anakin mad. He can't tell what's wrong. Why does his Master suddenly have such a connection to Tatooine culture?
Take Seven by Bablefishmouse
70k, complete, obianidala, lighter tone, several travellers
Seven time travellers race their way through the last several months of the clone wars to stop Palpatine. All of them remember the fall of the Empire.
Vader's body is restored and he finds himself in the midst of the Clone Wars. He will not side with Sidious this time. He will... inform Obi-Wan of what is to come and stop it. Somehow. Actually, he has no idea how to go about doing any of this. (He makes a massive mess).
The Will of the Force (Mayday, Mayday) by ExtraPenguin
2k, complete, oneshot, gen, crack/humour, many travellers
Suddenly everyone around Qui-Gon is acting extremely strangely and he can't understand any of it. His plan to request to train Anakin is thoroughly derailed by the Council and his own Padawan, of all things.
This is a newer fav of mine. Obi-Wan has been looping RotS for quite a while we the fic starts. This time he decides to do the ill advised and try to fuck Anakin into staying light.
Insanity by PinkEasterEggs
18k, complete, anidala, fix-it, anakin loops
Anakin is stuck in a loop on the day the Republic falls. It takes him a while to figure it out.
Obi-Wan loops Mustafar. He loops it many, many times before anything really changes.
Drag You Up From Hell by dragons_and_angels
3k, complete, unhinged obi-wan, public sex, fuck anakin back to the light-ish, obi-wan loops, 18+
Holy hell this oneshot is hot!! Told from Anakin's perspective on Mustafar as an Obi-Wan who has looped from this moment many times overpowers him.
Revenge of the Zillo Beast by Beatrice_Otter
4k, complete, gen, fix-it, anakin & mace loop
A fun little jaunt of a 'Zillo Beast eats Palpatine' fic with a timeloop twist. Focuses on Anakin & Mace, which is fun!
The 5 Lives of Obi-Wan Kenobi by yujacheong
1k, complete, oneshot, obikin, sad with a hopeful ending, obi-wan loops
A short wistful fic about Obi-Wan doing his life over and over trying to get it all right.
Groundhog Day by Ophelia_j
8k, complete, obikin, angst with a happy ending, obi-wan loops
At the end of his life when he dies on the Death Star Obi-Wan's mind returns to the past to fix things. He doesn't get it right on the first or fifth try. In the end, it's not about trying to out mastermind Palpatine, it's about Anakin and getting through to him.
Multiple Versions
A change of course (a second reckoning of sorts) by blueberrywizard
8k, complete, gen, character focused, obi-wan travels
Several versions of Obi-Wan travel to the same point in time when he was still a Padawan. They all sit down with Qui-Gon and talk. That's the fic! Lots of fun Obi-Wan characterisation through the different lived experiences of each version.
Thanks to Force shenanigans Obi-Wan is left to deal with several versions of Anakin at the same time in the opening of RotS. Much angst and Thoughts on Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship ensues.
Multiples - Obi-Wan in ROTS by CourtesyTrefflin
13k, complete, gen, fix-it, obi-wan travels
I think I read this one before I learnt this was a series and read the Anakin one. Same premise of several versions arriving during RotS, but it's Obi-Wans.
This series is so iconic I must recc it, but it's long as hell, so in a separate section. It's a highly influential fic series in this fandom and I fully understand why. Obi-Wan, living on Tatooine, travels back (physically) to when he was still an initiate. He changes the timeline drastically. Very slow pacing, read if you want to settle in for the long haul!
Don't Look Back by acuteneurosis
764k, ongoing, gen & anidala, slow paced, backwards, leia travels
This fic series changed my brain chemistry! Leia travels back to several months before AotC. She forms a strong relationship with Shmi, who is also very important in this series. I really love that. Leia knows a lot about what went down, but not everything, and that creates difficulties when it comes to preventing the fall of the Republic.

what if there was a franchise that was about hope, and the relationships between fathers and their children, and the relationships between mentors and their students, and redemption, and fighting against evil even when it all seems lost, and ordinary people believing in the possibility of a better and brighter future, and clinging to your culture even when darkness threatens to overcome you, and being thrust into situations that are so much bigger than you but still doing your best to make even the smallest difference, and fighting against oppression even when it’s all you’ve ever known, and watching the universe change around you and being unable to stop it, and being let down by the people closest to you but still being able to forgive them, and having faith in the people around you even when you don’t have faith in yourself. and also there are laser swords.
