man if i morph the fluff AU setting of Found Cat into a not-quite-Earth thing I can actually set the entire thing basically post-TLJ and have room for all kinds of shit.
I sometimes feel like I warp the concept of AUs too far, but…
I also had a thing I entitled “this is dumb” where I wrote a new version of How Shara And Kes met, and I was like, this was such a waste of time but I had to get it out but literally nobody’s going to want to read it, but…
If I set it in that A/U then I can solve some of my logistics problems and also have an excuse to tell it.
(It was really great because it involved Kes being Noble But Helpless and Shara being the Shining Hero Who Saves Him, and also let Shara make really goofy dad jokes for the entire rest of her life about it.)
Not that anyone would want to read that, either– a weird not-quite-Earth definitely-not-fluff AU version of minor canon characters’ meet-not-cute?[it’s not cute, kes is pretty badly-injured] – but it’s an excuse to write it, ok.
“How did you know that Papa was the person you were going to marry?” Poe asked, climbing up into Shara’s lap. She gathered him in, kissed him on top of his head, and looked thoughtful.
“Don’t make the joke,” Kes said, pointing at her with the stirrer he’d been using. Shara smiled at him. “Shara!”
“Poe,” Shara said sweetly, “it’s because when I first met him, I could see what was truly inside of him.”
“Shara,” Kes groaned. “He’s too young for that joke.”
