Do I have about thirty more STAR WARS fics I wanted to write recs for before I posted this? Of course I do. Do I have probably at least triple that amount waiting in my pile of fic to read that I know I’ll enjoy, but I must force myself to get this post out before it drags on any longer? Yes again. Is this what happens every single time I do a set of recs for this fandom? Invariably.
It’s not my fault that there’s been so much incredible fic posted lately, fic that appeals right straight to my fannish heart and is really legitimately good, especially when the prequels part of the fandom has been on absolute fire lately.The Clone Wars may have ended and it may be a quiet time in Star Wars canon right now, but fandom has really been bringing it and making me cry in all the right ways. Here, have some fic to cry over and coo happily over and all the range of emotions in between, because a lot of us could really use that right now.
