Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

Anonymous asked: Imagine Palpatine giving Anakin a clone of Padme. On the surface Palpatine claims he is rewarding Vader for exemplary service, but really he's rubbing Vader's face in it over Padme's death.

Holy shit, that clone better be the goddamn FASTEST TALKER in the galaxy, man, because I cannot imagine her surviving five minutes alone with Vader otherwise, “reward” from Palpatine or NOT. Unless, like, sheer spite spared her, maybe, maybe just sheer spite. Of course she is not a reward, of COURSE not, Vader KNOWS she’s not, he–he–

Force, she looks just LIKE her. She doesn’t have the memories, obviously, but the Force signature and the lilt of her accent and the particular tilt to her head and the spark in the back of her eyes are all so, so similar, so very nearly PERFECT, so very nearly … so very nearly … 

“Angel”. That’s the name the Emperor gave her. 

It’s actually almost sad how here for the Vader/Padme pain I am.  

@words-writ-in-starlight: the fastest talker in the galaxy NO FUCKING KIDDING vader is NOT A STABLE CREATURE OKAY EVEN ODDS ON TWO VERY DIFFERENT BREAKDOWNS THERE the first: murder of course because (vader thinks to himself) he’s already killed her once why shouldn’t he do it again? and she looks so like padme she does down to the stern line of her lips when she looks at him and she knows what he is and what he does and what her odds are of survival so she raises her chin proudly because she is nothing but a clone but she will die with pride and it’s…so much like padme (this is how liberty dies) he can’t let this galaxy destroy her twice he’s doing a mercy he’s SAVING her in the only way vader can save anyone anymore (he tells himself this) (it’s swift he can at least take comfort in that)(palpatine comes back to find her broken at vader’s feet and oh he is so angry that vader threw away this gift of his) (vader pays dearly for this as he knew he would) (but padme–not padme but almost padme–is safe at least he cannot hurt her again) the second: well…can the suit cry? and if so how would this girl this angel respond to the attack dog of the empire going to pieces in front of her who was her base structure to break him like this what does she do now?

@suzukiblu: #’are you an angel?’ #*flips table* #WHY DO YOUR TAGS ALWAYS RUIN MY LIFE FRIEND #WHY

Awww, you’re makin’ me blush.

Anonymous asked: Angel learns to answer ot Padme on Empire day, on that day she must pretend. She knows it's a day of grief for Vader, she knows that on that day more than any he just wants Padme, so that's who she'll be for the day. On Empire day they both pretend. Vader want Angel doesn't find out what he did to Padme on Empire Day. He doesn't know that Palpatine already told her. And yet with this knowledge, she gets ready each Empire day, places a pillow under her dress and ask Ani to feel the baby kick.
