Ok so we all knew Luke just flew there in a single seat X-Wing to pick up Yodito, thatâs all he was expecting, thatâs what he was there for.
But Luke Skywalker is a former Rebel Alliance leader, head of the New Jedi Order, brother to one of the most influential politicians in the galaxy, probably has a great deal of responsibility and especially so in regards to former Imperials.
When Luke walked onto that bridge he HAD to have noticed the top priority Imperial war criminal just zonked out on the ground. Luke had to have seen Moff Gideon and then just decided like, âeh, heâs probs fine where he is.â
Once again, I get X-Wings are small and Lukeâll barely have room for the baby let alone squeeze another whole-ass man in that thing to go back to the Republic so itâs not like Luke could have taken it but still.
Like, I wanna know Lukeâs thought process here. Did he see Cara and figured that since there was a Republic Marshal around, Gideon should be fine being left with her? Was he GOING to say something but then Obi Wanâs ghost tapped him on the shoulder like ânuh uh, dude, thereâs Mandalorians here, if theyâve got beef with him you better let them handle it, they only need outside help when theyâve made a mess so thereâs only a 50% chance theyâll be calling you later saying he escapedâ
Whatever happened, I HOPE Luke at least reported what he saw once he left, otherwise itâll be kinda funny like
Luke: Hey Leia look at this Yoda baby I found! He was hanging out with a bunch of bounty hunters and Moff Gideon
Leia: Gideon?!? Where is he, did you catch him!?????
Luke: Oh nah haha I just left him there, the other people seemed like they had it
Leia: Iâm sorry you WHAT

ENJOY!
Your sugar paper dress in lace and tulle gracefully fluttered in the wind, as you walked towards the Garrison, head up, a kind smile on your face and your right arm firmly placed on Johnâs left one.Â
That same morning, Tommyâs new horse had won his third race in a row, for which reason the Shelbys had decided to have a little party at their pub, so that they could celebrate those amazing successes with their friends and closest fellows from Birmingham, seizing, at the same time, the opportunity to show to the whole town how the family was getting more and more powerful.
Therefore, Finn, Michael and John were now escorting you and Polly to the tavern, where the rest of the Peaky Blinders had already got the festivities started.
âIf you ever get tired of Tommy, keep in mind that Iâm here waiting for you, darlingâ
The middle brother playfully whispered those flirty words into your ear, even though he was truly enchanted by the way you looked that night; you immediately glimpsed in his direction, seeing him keep an alluring smirk on his wonderful face and a toothpick held between his rose lips, just like always.
A genuine chuckle spilled from your mouth because of his joke, a slight blush instantly covering your sweet face, while your lips promptly left a noisy kiss on his cheek.
âDonât worry about him, Johnny, we can keep it as our little secretâ
You blinked at him, still giggling out loud, as you entered the Garrison arm in arm, finding a whole crowd of half-drunk people joyfully cheering for the increasing greatness and fortune of the Shelby Brothers Limited.
âAnd thatâs Thomasâs definition of small refreshment?â
Pollyâs usual sarcastic tone prickly referred to the massive amount of guests your fiancĂŠ had apparently invited; she lit a cigarette, carelessly throwing the used match on the floor, before her free forearm fondly stretched out to Michael, in a silent invitation to accompany her towards the table where Arthur had already made himself comfortable.
Finn, on the other hand, immediately spotted Isaiah amidst the throng, for it took him a scant moment to literally run in his direction, eager as he was to finally spend a night out with his best mate, forgetting about work for a while.
âWould you mind helping me find your perennially busy brother, mh?â
You asked John, since you were now alone, standing at the entrance like two complete idiots, withouth a clue about what to do next.
âWhy donât you come home with me instead?â
His eyebrows quickly raised and lowered several times, in an intentionally droll attempt to make that indecent proposal sound tempting, his usual cocky smile never leaving his face.
âOh, shut up now!â you heartily laughed, jokingly punching his shoulder in the process âLetâs just find him, and then youâll look for a pretty girl to dance withâ
âNo need to look for girls, love, they throw themselves at meâ
Your almost-brother-in-law defiantly stated that, while adjusting his houndstooth suit in one swift move, his large shoulders lifted along with his lower lip, giving life to an expression of pure smugness, which esponentially boosted when he found his way to the middle of the pub, performing his usual, cheeky, extremely bold walk.
Johnâs lean and solid body shielded yours as you passed through that enormous amount of people, until you eventually reached for the cluttered counter; your watchful eye immediately caught Tommyâs figure standing with his back turned, a loving grin inadvertently springing upon your red lips, for he had left early that morning without waking you up, and, although it may seem corny, you had shamelessly missed him.
Nevertheless, your jaw nearly dropped when, taking a few more steps in his direction, a beautiful woman entered your line of sight: she was talking to him, her clearly infatuated stare burning with desire, one of her palms randily caressing his bony cheek, but the worst part was that Thomas didnât make a single move to stop her, he just stood there, listening to what she was saying, letting her pet his face.
âOh, fucking hellâ
John muttered, foreseeing a catastrophic epilogue to that risky situation, indeed, he was perfectly aware that you had no idea of who May was, moreover he could plainly tell she was without a doubt attracted to his brother, which meant no good, considering that you were in the same country as her. Still, before he had the chance to stop you from doing anything, you had already covered the gap between you and them, approaching your fiancĂŠ and heavily tapping on his shoulder covered by an elegant black jacket.
Tomâs icy eyes imperceptibly widened as he turned to you and realized how misunderstandable that scene could look; however, within a fraction of a second, he composed himself and regained all of his customary confidence, curving his mouth into an impertinent smirk and placing a hand behind your back, so to guide you in front of the mysterious lady.
âOh, you must be y/n, Tommyâs told me a lot about you! Iâm May, May Carletonâ
Her falsely excited voice brusted out, preceding both of you, and that alone couldâve been enough to set you off, you were aching to ruthlessly punch her in the face, right there and then, yet your strong common sense led you to simply send her a long, eloquent death glare.
âWell, he didnât tell me anything about you, not a wordâ
Perceptible hostility towards that woman infected your tone, still, while you spat that rancorous reply, your killer attention was utterly focused on Thomas, who, for his part, kept looking at you with amusement, blatantly revelling in your jealous little scene.
âI didnât have a chance toâ
His husky voice nonchalantly spilled from his full lips, whereon he was unchastely sliding a cigarette filter, his piercing black pupils continued to defiantly nail yours as he aimed to provoke you with that silly, senseless remark.
Teeth sinking into the warm flesh of your inner cheek, while you tried your best to avoid a beastly outburst in front of everyone; sadly, hardly any moment later, May unwisely decided to throw more salt on your already stinging wounds.
âHow funny, Iâve been training your horses for three months nowâ a galling laugh of mockery eurpted from her throat and, once she was sure she had your attention, you noticed raw mischief twinkling in her brown irises âWith excellent results, I might addâ
She raised the glass of champagne she was holding, along with a hint of her head in Tommyâs direction, inviting him to make a toast to their incredible series of victories;Â a shrill tinkle filled your ears when his crystal cup joined hers, almost making your skin crawl, you watched speechless and powerless as a seductive expression deliberately contaminated his stunning features.
âObviously. Nothing but the best for my horsesâ
You just couldnât believe your eyes, nor your ears; an alarming amount of emotions assaulting your defenseless mind, as you eventually figured out how many lies he had been feeding you during those past months. Soon after he had brought his first mare at the auction, Tommy specifically talked to you about how many expectations and resources he had placed on that brand new project, to the point of actually enlisting an expensive horse trainer, one of their comrades from France, a man they could trust, he did say.
Your brain franticly reviewed all of the episodes in which he had called you to inform that he wouldâve been late, for he had to stop by the stables in order to check on his beasts; a grievous boulder growing inside your chest, brutally crushing your heart, at the very thought of what couldâve effectively happened in those evenings, your breathing sharply stopped for endless instants, until you regained control of your body, blinking a few times to stop the world from spinning around you.
Not a single world escaped your mouth, you only looked at them for one last time, before you hastened to turn tail and run away from that obnoxious situation.
Only then, Thomas factually realized heâd gone too far with you, his vigilant stare followed your silhouette quickly moving amidst that mob of drunken yokels, while he briefly took leave of May, without even glimpsing at her once.
Pushing and kicking his way through the crowd, he reached for you when you were practically one step away from the main door.
âCâmon, y/n, wait! Hey, donât leaveâ
Tom delicately grabbed your forearm in an attempt to hold you back, but, as soon as you saw him touching you, a calamitous rage exploded in your belly, leading you to violently yank your arm away.
âTake your hands off me, or I swear to God, Iâll bind you with your own fucking cap!â
Eyelids squeezing with autentic ire as you snarled in his face, fiercely smacking his hand several times and managing to get out of his grasp; yet, when you tried to leave the pub afresh, his imposing frame promptly interposed between you and the exit, his left palm firmly leaning against the jamb, so to cover the whole open space and preclude you every possibility to find your way out.
âGet out of the fucking way, I said!â
Frustration filled your yells, you had recourse to all your strength in a restless effort to shove him off, continuing to insult him and punch his chest, still your blows felt like nothing more than tickling to him. Thomas rolled his orbs and, at the same time, raised both his eyebrows, in a plan expression of his nuisance.
âI think youâre being a bit overdramatic, loveâ
Thomas was perfectly aware that he was being a total asshole, afterall, he had never even thought of May in such a way, but, for some strange reason, he wanted to tease you that night, he wanted to see you detonate.
His imperturbable tone, together with his absurd words, totally made you lose your temper, you sensed your knuckles itching to crash with his perfect jaw, again and again and again.
âOverdramatic?!â your voice raising of a couple octaves âYou bloody bastard! You lied to me, God only knows what the hellâs been going on between you and that bitch. Whatâs more, you let her fucking flirt with you, in front of me!â
Hot tears were now forming in your eyes while you kept shouting till you felt your throat hurt, Tommy simply kept watching you, not daring to pronounce a single syllable, but never changing his stoic countenance, nor moving from the doorway.
âYou were flirting back, letting her touch you that way, you fucking humiliated me, Thomas! In my place, you wouldâve killed any man, without even thinking âbout it!â
Tomâs look somehow softened as he observed your features contract with anger and sorrow, he knew he had unnecessarily and foolishly hurt you, he only was too proud to say it out loud; so, he kept his mouth shut and just came closer to you, carefully attempting to stroke your shoulders with tenderness.
Nevertheless, you were too full of wrath and delusion to let him make it up to you that easily: actually, you desperately needed to cry, your cheeks were flushing with resentment, blind choler streaming in your veins.
And, suddenly, a dull smack resounded in your and his ears.
You slapped him so hard, that his head automatically tilted in the opposite direction, leaving both you and him speechless for a full minute; Thomas remained in that forced position, frozen, without going back to face you, consequently giving you the opportunity to finally pull him aside.
âYou donât fuck with me, Mr. Shelbyâ
That was all that you hissed, then leaving the Garrison and not looking back.
