Summary
Texas, 2008: Alcea Potter is twenty-eight and still mad at the world, only staying still long enough to visit her godson and the Weasley clan when she went back to the continent. The past three months in the States had been a rush of hitchhiking with truckers, stopping whenever a town or a party sent a thrill through her that drowned out whatever thoughts reminded her of the whispers of Girl-who-Lived, Woman-who-Won. Then there’s a twenty-something hotshot leaning into her space across the bar calling her Cyclone and inviting her on the road with him, talking about lightning. The tabloids will call her “tramp”, “golddigger”, and “cougar”. Eight years later the world will call them one of the greatest modern love stories.

But until those eight years later, Alcea is twenty-eight in Texas, hitchhiking across the States, and there's some prick in bright red leather flirting with her despite looking too young to be legally drinking. At least Jeanette behind the bar had her back.

Summary
It's been months of strange half-meetings in bars across the States. Always the same dance: Alcea rides into town with the newest soul to let her hitchhike, finds a bar to forget a few things, and then The Blonde somehow tracks her down. They talk, they dance, they fight, Alcea leaves, he stays. Then she slides into a new bar in a different state, and The Blonde somehow follows and the whole thing repeats anew.
Somehow, she still wasn't expecting to see him tonight. And she wasn't expecting to learn his name.

Summary
anonymous asked:
What if Luke and Leia were "switched at birth" (or rather, the difference is how they were split)? Prince Luke Organa? Leia Skywalker?-
When she is nine, Leia sits her uncle and auntie down and, small face screwed up with determination, asks for an increase of her allowance. She has prepared points and counterpoints. She cites both local and intergalactic codes of labor law.
Her uncle frowns at her for a long minute once she’s done. She holds his gaze, stare for stare, chin untrembling, because that’s how he’d taught her to when they went to barter for parts at Toshi Station.
“Alright,” he says.
“My bedtime should be pushed an hour later, too,” Leia tries and her aunt laughs and tells her to go do the dishes.
When Leia is twelve, she organizes all of the children of local farms into a union. Their parents think they’re kidding until they hold their first strike.
