I like like 2.5 movies and 2.5 characters but somehow I’m all in based solely on that. Main blog name is @walkawaytallblogs but I don't actually post there. ao3 | ffn
Hello lovely folks! Next month we're celebrating our favourite couple as is our yearly tradition, and we're here to tell you all about it so you can get started on your fanworks 😊
💗 How does Han/Leia Appreciation Week work?
This year, the event will run from August 17th to August 23rd, and there are two prompts each day that creators can fulfill with: fanfic, fanart, gifsets, graphics, fanvids, headcanons, crafts, playlists, rec lists. You’re encouraged to tag your posts with #hanleiaweek2026 so we can reblog them! After the week is over, we’ll share a masterlist with links to the works.
You can show your appreciation in many ways; however, please keep in mind that it has to be a creation of yours of some sort (e.g. don’t repost other people’s fanart, gifs, or unedited pictures; don't use AI). Rec lists should include a link to the original source both for fanfic and fanart (more on this after the cut).
🔥 The prompts
Monday 8/17: Names / Dates
Tuesday 8/18: Snow / Stars
Wednesday 8/19: Favorite scene / Favorite quote
Thursday 8/20: Afraid / Amazed
Friday 8/21: AU / Canon divergence
Saturday 8/22: Now / Forever
Sunday 8/23: Free day!
You can use only one of the daily prompts, combine both, reinterpret them, or skip the day if you can’t think of anything. If you’re not able to post on the same day for a prompt, you’re still encouraged to share it through the week—just don’t post works for a certain prompt before the day corresponding to that prompt.
💠 💠 💠
FAQs and Rules under the cut - please read!
💕 Can I post my work to another site and share the link on Tumblr?
Yes! This is a good option for people who might want to create explicit art that could be taken down on Tumblr, write a long fic or multichapter, or make videos or playlists.
💕 Does it have to be a new creation? Can I finish and post a WIP?
It has to be something that has never been posted anywhere else before, so finishing and sharing a WIP is okay! If it doesn’t fit any of the prompts, you can share it on Free Day.
💕 Is this event open to all ratings?
Yes! Just remember to add a note at the top if your work is rated Mature or Explicit, as well as if it has any major trigger warnings, and use a “Read more” cut if you’re posting the whole work on Tumblr so everyone can safely browse through the entries.
💕 Are there any length or quality requirements?
There’s no min. or max. length for fanfic or quality level for art, but please note that AI-generated works won’t be accepted. For gifsets, there’s a minimum of two gifs (that must be made by you!). For playlists, there’s a minimum of five songs. For rec lists of fic or fanart, there’s also a minimum of five recs. Some more questions you might have about rec lists:
- How do I share someone else’s art without posting a picture? You might post a thumbnail that crops a preview of the piece; if the piece has a title, you might use that; you might describe it; or you might say something like “this piece by [artist]”, and link to the source.
- What if I found a fanart on Google? Try to find the original source using reverse search image.
- What if I can’t still find it, can I just say “credit to the artist”? In that case, please just don’t share the piece.
- What if I know the artist but don’t have a link to the original source? Naming the artist and linking back to where you found it is okay, in that case.
💕 Can I write for canon/Legends and include other pairings?
All canons, time periods, headcanons and AUs are welcome, and you’re allowed to include side pairings, except for R*eylo. However, keep in mind that this is a Han/Leia appreciation week - at the risk of sounding repetitive, works should focus on appreciating Han and Leia’s relationship!
💕 What’s the time zone for the event?
Please don’t worry too much about time zones: when we say “day”, we always mean “whenever that day is for you in your part of the world” - i.e.: if it’s Monday for you, you can post your work for the Monday prompt.

It is! It’s a badger I painted, actually. The why is…basically, when I was setting up my account, I wanted to have a profile pic but didn’t want anything associated with any online accounts I’ve attached to my real name, and I’m pretty sure I just picked something that was mine, so I knew it’d be unique, and I wanted something that I knew I hadn’t posted anywhere else so it couldn’t be connected to my real-life accounts.
I think I painted that badger when I was first thinking about getting a badger tattoo, so badgers were on the brain, but the tattoo I got is a totally different style.

I love the way you write the rogues and leia. Do you have any fic recs for that sorta thing? I blew through all your work too quickly. Couldn't stop myself
Hello! I’m so glad you enjoyed my work and appreciate the ask!
The fic involving Leia and the Rogues that immediately comes to mind is A Betting Woman by @lajulie24. I’m sort of having trouble thinking of others, but I know they exist. If any of my followers think of fics fitting this description, feel free to comment with suggestions!
Things I was able to do today in Michigan, where it is 85°F, feels like 85°F, and the UV index topped out at 9:
Pick blueberries with friends
Go to the beach with friends
Get ice cream with friends
Things I would have been able to do today if I were still in Texas, where it is 95°F, feels like 100°F+, and the UV index topped out at 11:
Get ice cream (maybe with friends)
Like, I used to think that moving across the country in part because of the weather was a little silly, but I would have absolutely spent all of today inside because my body/the medication I have to take hates heat that much and the UV index is unbearable.
It’s important to me that you know that I used some of the 8lbs of blueberries I picked to make a blueberry slump (this one specifically), and it’s delicious. Highly suggest.

Some of you know this already, but the reason I started writing Star Wars fanfiction was because I was working on a novel for years and it was making me feel insane. The MC was a character I created as a teen and was also the center of many a maladaptive daydream back when I used that as a coping mechanism. I had fleshed her and the characters around her out over the course of many years and had a lot of trouble murdering my darlings as they say (not literally—one of those characters does, in fact, get murdered, but the fact that they get murdered is actually possibly one of those darlings).
Anyway, I took a look at some of that old writing and…look, some of it is very bad. My fanfiction is better than a huge chunk of it. There’s a lot of melodrama when my intent was to tell a pretty grounded story. But the core concept is actually…pretty good? And I do like most of the characters and their dynamics.
Michigan currently has more than double the number of cyclosporiasis cases than the state with the second-most cases and I am now paranoid about eating raw produce.
WONDER WHY THOSE ALL DON’T LOOK LIKE THE SAME COLOR? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT
OTHER THAN BEING PART OF THE SAME FAMILY OF BLUES, THEY ARE NOT ALL THE SAME FUCKING COLOR! WHY WOULD THEY ALL BE THE SAME FUCKING COLOR! DO YOU THINK WE JUST NAME NEW COLORS FOR KICKS!?!?!?
WHEN DESCRIBING A CHARACTER’S GOD FORSAKEN EYE COLOR, PICK ONE YA GODDAMN HIPPIE

I think it’s sort of weird that so many Star Wars fans seem to think that Luke had uncomplicated feelings about Anakin/Vader. Like, we see him in moments in which action is necessary, and at a funeral pyre that, admittedly, many would have balked at constructing. But we don’t see him trying to reconcile the good he saw in Vader with his own firsthand (pun not intended but also not denied) experience with the man, or with the experiences of those he loves. If Anakin had survived, I do have to think that Luke would have had a ton of conflicted feelings to deal with and talk through. Anakin being dead removes the need to communicate with the man directly (well, I think anyway. Force ghosts do see to just intrude personal moments at will, so maybe not), and there would probably be a sense of closure to a degree, but I still think trying to figure out exactly what he thought and felt about the guy would be a pretty long process. Yet, common fanon is that Luke’s just okay with everything, no complicated feelings himself. At best, he simply empathizes with Leia’s complicated feelings without actually experiencing his own. It just doesn’t make sense to me.
I have a theory that whoever animated the Star Wars Holiday Special short had some deep beef with Harrison Ford. Like, no one looks great, but Han is an absolute nightmare the whole way through.
