This is like a trailer for their relationship. Gives me goosebumps! Music: Something instrumental? 🙂

This is possibly my favourite vid for this couple, pairing their light-hearted banter and the deep emotions underpinning it. Music by Micky Green.

Riding the Wheel of If: Arc 1, by MrsHamill

“I have no idea how it works. Master Windu thought perhaps it has something to do with the crystals, but Master Yoda thought it might have been my mind-set when I built it. All I know is – I turn it on, and I’m gone. But I still have Qui-Gon’s ‘saber with me.“ He swallowed. “It’s all I have left of him, now. But I’m going to find him … I have to find him … I will find him …”

Adult, AU – so very AU… Different pairings, but Obi/Qui end goal. Also, warning for some pretty dark and messed up things that happen to poor Obi-Wan.

The Force keeps leading him to different realities, some close to the one we know, some very, very different. This is the ultimate AU fic, Obi-Wan encountering everything from gender swapped versions of familiar faces, words taken over by the Sith to actors playing Jedi in a tv show. After Very Bad Stuff happens, Obi’s pain causes the fic to drag at times (not that you can blame him), but I never stopped wishing for him to finally find a Qui-Gon to call his own. (Their continuing adventures can be found in the other 3 Arcs of this epic.)

The title link goes to Fanlore because Tumblr for some reason doesn’t accept the link for the author page.

Awakenings, by thedevilchicken

Steve wakes to a world terrorised by kaiju and steps up to pilot a jaeger. Natasha assists. Bucky wakes as the Winter Soldier and struggles to find a new identity. Steve is entirely unhelpful. And while Steve comes to terms, someone else saves the world.

Mature, AU. I’m a total sucker for Pacific Rim/MCU crossovers – this is unique in that it actually merges the two worlds, and does a very good job, too. This allows the story to focus on Steve learning how to deal with this new Bucky, who is both his old friend and someone very much different.

I was in the mood for something upbeat, and this short vid celebrates the twinkle in Obi-Wan’s gorgeous eyes and put a big smile on my face. Music by Adam Lambert.

The Moonflower Festival, by Emma Grant

“Master, why did you request this… mission? Did you know in advance that our mission to Hildass would be so difficult?“ 

Qui-Gon smiled warmly. "Padawan, surely it cannot have escaped your attention that the third day of the Moonflower festival falls on your birthday.”

Adult, multiple partners, sex pollen. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan discover the joys of the Moonflower – with different partners, but somehow it always comes back to them…

Seven, by girlintheYhat

Even though he’s uncomfortable and it’ll be too hot and then too cold, and he’s bound to have scratched and clawed at his skin by the morning, somehow there’s always comfort when she’s there.

Teen. Seven times Cal and Gillian spend the night together, this is a lovely progression that rings utterly true.

When The Bough Breaks, by topaz_eyes

Gillian pulls his hand into her lap and strokes the back of it, studying the network of old scars crisscrossing his knuckles as she continues her reverie. She knows just how unfair it is to use Cal like this.

Adult, angst. I love Gillian’s voice here, even if her relationship with Cal here isn’t exactly as I see it. And the sex is the best kind – hot and full of emotion.

Hi all, posting again – my Callian fanvid 🙂  Enjoy!

(tim roth, kelli williams – lie to me)

One of my very favourite relationships on any tv show, ever, and this vid captures beautifully what Gillian means to Cal. Music: Like a Prayer, by Madonna.

This is what the prequels desperately needed: more snappiness, a groovy soundtrack – and less Jar Jar.
