Obi-Wan: *gently massaging Anakin’s wittle palms while talking about the importance of proper hand care and why little padawans shouldn’t bathe in motor oil before beddy-byes* -and that’s the seventeenth reason you are the bane of my existence, yes yes, you cause Master soooo much stress! Naughty!
Anakin: *happy purrs and cuddles*
Entire Jedi Council: …
Mace: I swear to god Kenobi, if you don’t stop babytalking that twenty-five year old man-
Yoda: Familiar, this situation is…
Plo: *amused* Yes, I seem to remember Qui-Gon acting much the same way when Obi-Wan was this age.
Mace: *throwing a balled up flimsi at Obi-Wan’s head* force, stop that! It’s giving me force-hives! Padme won’t stop messaging me asking where her husband is, send him home already!
Obi-Wan: Hmmm… kick me off the council and I’ll stop bothering you with it.
Mace: Done.
Yoda: Not your decision alone, that is.
Mace: *hissing* you old troll either they go or I do but I’m not dealing with their codependent bullshit today, I’ve already encountered four shatterpoints while his antichrist children were in my presence today, I’m done here, I’m just so done.
Anakin: *falling asleep half in Obi-Wan’s lap* Just tell Leia to stop it. She doesn’t give me visions if I don’t bother her.
Mace: …did you just imply she can /stop/ force visions with her abilities???
Yaddle: what the fuck…
Yoda: Delightfully terrifying, she is!
Mace: That’s it, I quit, I’m retiring, I’m not dealing with this-
Anakin: Awwww, you can’t retire, Luke likes you.
Mace: He gives me anxiety! He always has a bunch of shatterpoint bubbles floating around him!
Anakin: Alright, how did you get over Obi-Wan’s weird force bubbles when he was tiny and constantly looking for you because babies love their finders?
Mace: I spontaneously learned teleportation one year. And forgot how to do it when the panic died down.
Anakin: There’s the trick, then.
Mace: I hate it here.
Yoda: Love Jedi, I do!

Jaina Solo as Anastasia
So I was listening to the Anastasia soundtrack as I did my Jaina doodles and so enjoy this bullet-pointed AU with Jaina Solo as the Princess Anastasia, based on the Don Bluth Movie.
(I am so sorry this got so freaking long)
The Amidala family has ruled the planet of Naboo for a hundred years or so, the most recent being Padme Amidala, who married Anakin Skywalker and had two children, the twins Leia and Luke
Padme abdicated after her husband died, bestowing her grand kingdom to her daughter, the Princess Leia, who married General Han Solo and had three children, Anakin, the youngest, Jacen, and his twin, Jaina Solo, the oldest and designated heir.
Padme dotes on her only granddaughter, helping prepare the wild girl for ruling the planet one day.
During Padme’s reign with Anakin, they relied heavily on the advice of their counselor, Shiv Palpatine, who had mentored them both
Once Leia took the throne, she discovered that Palpatine had a hand in the death of her father, and would have executed him had he not escaped.
The Amidalas forget him, dedicating their efforts to improving their kingdom and trying to repair any damage that Palpatine had done to their people.
Jaina and her brothers grow up in the lap of luxury and want for nothing. Jaina learns to ride Fathiers and fly speeders like her father. Jacen is better with the Fatheirs than she is and she’s jealous of that fact because Jacen gets along great with ALL animals, and Fathiers are her favorite
All three children are strong in the force, like the rest of their family, and their Master Uncle Luke trains them to protect their friends and to fight for justice for their people.
One of the servants is the orphan boy Zekk, who often escapes from the palace with the Amidala children, searching for adventure. As much as they try to be friends, there is an entire world separating their very different lives.
Padme lives on the planet of Naboo, very similar to Alderaan, and all her grandchildren hate how far away she lives.
She returns to Alderaan for the Anniversary ball to celebrate the Hundredth year of the Amidala reign, with special gifts for all of her grandchildren to remember her by.
Jacen receives a rare Crystal Snake, Anakin gets a puzzle to test his wits, but Jaina’s is the most special. A tiny music box that she can tinker with so that it plays their favorite Alderaanian lullaby. 
The night of the Ball, Palpatine returns, revealing his true form of Darth Sidious. He curses the Amidala family with death and unhappiness, and uses his newly found dark powers to stir the peace-loving people of Alderaan to violence against their beloved rulers.
The planet is racked with war, tearing at its seams. The Amidalas try to stay as long as they can, insisting that they can stop the violence in some way.  
They cannot, and they must escape as a deadly weapon orchestrated by Darth Sidious aims for the planet’s core.
Desperate to keep a hold on her precious music box, Jaina is separated from her family in the spaceport, but is aided by Zekk, who directs her to a ship full of orphan children.
The two are cornered by Sidious himself, though Jaina drives him back with her wild powers, just barely defeating him. 
This leaves her without her memories, but she is preserved somehow and stowed onboard the ship, but separated from Zekk, who now has Jaina’s beloved music box in his possession.
Alderaan is destroyed by Sidious’s hatred, its people scattered throughout the galaxy.
Much of the diaspora is concentrated in the capital of the galaxy, Coruscaunt, including Jaina, Zekk, and Lando Calrissian, a conman by nature and an old friend of Han Solo.
Having lost their daughter, Han, Leia, and Padme refuse to believe that she died with Alderaan, and offer a reward for anyone who can produce the heir of the Alderaanian throne, or any information leading to her.
Jaina has grown to adulthood being called “Jaya” by the other orphan children, no memory of the esteemed life she once led. She leaves the orphanage, to find work, wandering across the planet as a mechanic.
Lando has somewhat adopted Zekk the street rat, and they think they know how to get the reward money for the location of Jaina Solo.
They hold auditions for someone to pose as the lost heir, who they will teach the ways of courtly life, specifically the life of Jaina Solo.
Jaya is called in to fix their ship, and she is amazed by the familiarity of Alderaanian tech, and the lullaby Zekk is humming as he plays with the silent music box hanging around his neck.
Lando is struck with a brilliant idea, scruffy-looking mechanic Jaya will pose as the wild Jaina Solo Amidala, giving him and Zekk a shot at the reward money and Jaya a chance to leave Coruscaunt for once in her life and see the galaxy.
Their ship is attacked by Sidious’s demons, forcing them to take a public cruiser to Naboo, where the Amidalas now live.
Jaya is getting increasingly frustrated with the courtly rules and the fancy clothes Lando tries to make her dress up in. Zekk is getting just as frustrated with trying to teach her, and can’t help but feel like he’s missing something, and Lando keeps insisting that Jaya can pull it off perfectly, all with a winning smile.
While transferring between ships, Lando decides to teach Jaya to ride a fathier, as Jaina was so fond of doing
Suddenly it just clicks.
Jaya is sprinting ahead of Zekk and Lando, and remembering just about everything they’ve taught her. She carries herself like a princess, and discusses Alderaanian history with Lando, bringing up some points Zekk is very certain they’ve never taught her.
Finally it comes time to teach Jaya the Alderaanian waltz.
Lando tries first, but Jaya’s too stiff and awkward, so he makes Zekk do it.
Jaya doesn’t even question it but she is comfortable with Zekk. She trusts him, somehow, and hopes that he trusts her in return.
Zekk’s stomach aches as the though flits across his mind that maybe this is Jaina, his old friend, the princess of the Alderaanian Empire. If it’s true, she will find her family, and he will be happy for her, but it also means he will never see the princess again. He is a simply a common man, they cannot be.
Jaya doesn’t understand why Zekk is suddenly not talking to her.
Then she has a nightmare. Brothers, parents, family she does not recognize, all turn to demons before her eyes and try to pull her in with them, she is pulled through the ship as she sleepwalks, unable to awaken.
(another of sidious’s ploys to tear the amidalas apart)
Zekk awakens her as she is about to throw herself into the ship’s core, banishing the demons, how he doesn’t know.
He refuses to leave her side for the rest of the night.
Jaya doesn’t mind.
They arrive at Naboo, and Lando takes them to the estate of Master Skywalker, his former lover, and sister to Queen Leia Amidala. All attempting to prove themselves the Princess Jaina must speak to him before the Queen and her mother.
Jaya’s presence is dim in the force, almost severed somehow. Luke cannot get a reading on her, but she answers all his questions with sincere honesty.
Then she is asked to relay the story of her escape from Alderaan. 
Her memory is fuzzy, but it’s been returning since her lessons. 
She mentions the servant boy with emerald eyes and a sad sort of smile, how he pulled her by the hand through a crowd, and then he was gone.
Zekk is astonished. He has to leave the room. He has never told anyone of this, not even Lando. He wanted to forget his life on Alderaan until Lando concocted his get-rich-quick-slash-reunite-with-his-ex-boyfriend scheme.
Luke determines to take a chance on Jaya, inviting her to the Calamari opera Padme Amidala will be attending with him that evening. He takes them on a shopping spree around Naboo for fancy new clothes.
Zekk is even more in love with her than before, though he knows he shouldn’t. Jaya can’t understand why Zekk seems so upset when they are having so much fun.
They arrive at the opera, Zekk is still debating whether or not to tell Lando. Jaya dons an elegantly simple suit, rather than a dress, and follows Lando’s style with a flashy cape, and Zekk is speechless as he guides her into the opera.
At the end, they make their way to the Amidala’s private box.
Zekk tries to introduce Jaya as the Princess Jaina, but Padme will not have it. She is tired of girls trying to claim her money and legacy and break her heart as she searches for her family.
Zekk insists, he has to get Jaina back to her family.
Padme’s guard recognizes him as one whom they heard organizing auditions for a Jaina look-alike. Padme has him thrown out. Jaya overhears.
She leaves in tears, refusing to speak to Zekk or Lando. 
Lando is just about to give up when Zekk tells him the truth, and makes one more attempt to reunite the Amidalas.
An expert pilot, he steals Padme Amidala away in her cruiser before her driver can get in, and shows her the music box Jaina dropped with him on the night the planet was destroyed.
Padme agrees to meet Jaya just once, in return for the music box.
Jaya is just leaving with her meager bag when Padme intercepts her, looking the girl up and down. The girl looks remarkably similar to herself and her daughter and grandson. Then again, so did many other girls.
She notices the key hanging around Jaina’s necklace, and asks what it’s for.
Jaya doesn’t know, it’s the only thing she’s always had, her only connection to her past life.
Padme looks again at the music box. It is definitely the one she gave Jaina, but a small lock is fastened on the side. A amateur’s handiwork, but a dedicated amateur.
Curious, she asks Jaya to humor an old woman, and Jaya holds the music box she thought was Zekk’s. Her key twists inside the lock, plinking out a gentle melody.
It isn’t until she hears the old Queen’s voice singing that she realizes she is singing with the music too.
Her memories accompany the words of the lullaby, and Padme embraces her. Jaina reunites with her parents, brothers, and meets Jacen’s golden-haired fiancee within an hour.
Lando settles in with Luke again, and so Padme tries to offer the reward to Zekk, who refuses. He is simply happy to see Jaina with her family.
A ball is organized to celebrate the return of the Princess.
Jaina is fitted for a dress, to her mother’s delight, and it isn’t so bad. It feels more like a cloud than yards and yards of ridiculous fabric. Jacen himself even says he can’t find anything to tease her about.
At the ball, Jaian tries to deny that she’s looking for Zekk but her grandmother knows her too well, even after all these years.
Jaina goes to the gardens to think, away from the parties and celebrations that are far too foreign to her now.
Sidious appears and attacks. Taken by surprise, Jaina is barely able to hold him off.
Zekk tries to leave and go back to Coruscaunt, but the bad feeling in his stomach won’t go away. He runs back to the palace just in time to distract Sidious. 
Jaina snatches Sidious’s reliquary, the source of his power, and smashes it on the ground. 
Sidious’s body disintegrates, left without a soul, and his curse upon the Amidalas does too.
Jaina returns to her family with her childhood friend, where he is welcomed into the family with open arms, by Jacen especially.
They know too well what it is like to live without an important part of their family.
It is far better to add more family members than to reject them.
Jacen marries the Princess of the Hapan Empire, and Zekk feels a lot of pressure, but Jaina reminds him that her title is simply honorary, because Alderaan no longer exists.
And they all live happily ever after on Naboo.
The end.
