silver bullet: explicit, 3k+ words, smutty one shot post-rotj in which han brings leia back a gag gift from an off-planet mission, but doesn't expect to be taken up on it. leia, however, is always willing to subvert his expectations of her.

with these hands: mature, 4k+, another version of what happens post-jabba's palace and the sarlacc pit. han and leia reconnect after his rescue while dealing with the affects of hibernation sickness and the events they'd just endured.

long form alternate universes:

millennium: southern gothic au inspired by beautiful creatures. han, a drifting mechanic with a bruised past, takes a summer job at the crumbling kenobi house in the georgia woods, expecting only a paycheck. instead, he finds strange storms, a unexplainable events, and leia and luke, twins bound to their reclusive guardian and a legacy of force-wielding power. as han is drawn into their world — and into a charged bond with leia — he uncovers a curse tied to the twins’ birth and their parents’ violent deaths. with their twenty-second birthday approaching, han is pulled into a reckoning that will decide whether they remain in the light or fall into darkness. chapters have started to drop on a semi-weekly basis :) i post about it under #millennium

a light in the dark: following the events of the original trilogy, a three part tlou au focused on han, leia, luke, and chewie. when han and chewie make a deal with firefly, ben kenobi, and his nephew, he and chewie are launched into the world of the rebel group — hell bent on taking down the facist, defacto government, FEDRA. hopefully coming in the new year! i post about it under #alitd
