Shipping names

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, these are the shipping names I know so far:

- Stormpilot (Finn/Poe)
- Jedistormpilot (Finn/Poe/Rey)
- Reylo (Kylo/Rey)
- Kylux (Hux/Kylo)

If anyone else knows any others, please feel free to contribute! (These are the most active tags on Tumblr, but obviously different people will have different names for their ships.)

Re: Shipping names

[(Anonymous)]

I've also seen Renrey for Kylo/Rey, but is anyone actually using that in the tags on AO3 or tumblr?

Re: Shipping names

[(Anonymous)]

Kylo Ren/Poe = Darkpilot

Re: Shipping names

[(Anonymous)]

I heard:

Damerey for Poe/Rey

Re: Shipping names

[(Anonymous)]

For TFA ships, I've also seen these

Phux (Phasma/Hux)
Orgasma (Leia/Phasma)
Darkpilot (Kylo/Poe)

I'd appreciate it if anyone can tell me if there are established names for these pairings:

Phasma/Kylo
Vader/Kylo
The various pairings with Snoke (someone on Tumblr suggested Ultradark for Snoke/Kylo, which I think is the most common of the group?)

Shall we play a game?

Fuck/Marry/Has To Hang Out With Jar Jar
(Because Fuck/Marry/Kill is too mean)

Starting with the new trio: Finn, Poe, Rey

Re: Shall we play a game?

[(Anonymous)]

Marry Rey/Fuck Poe/Finn has to hang out with Jar Jar, because I'd actually really love to see their interactions. Jar Jar is a pure cinnamon roll, just like Finn.

Re: Shall we play a game?

[(Anonymous)]

Marry Rey, because she's my everything. Which leaves me with my two babies, urgh, Sophie's Choice much!! ! But I think I'd have to fuck my precious cinnamon roll Finn. So Godspeed, sweet Poe prince, have fun with Jar Jar

[(Anonymous)]

I don't now about you guys, but I am anxiously awaiting the coming months when the TFA fans start rewatching the original movies, and the prequels. I would love to see a resurgence of the Obi-Wan/Anakin ship... and basically any Obi-Wan ship.

[(Anonymous)]

me too! I've already done 2 rewatches this year, but I'm gonna start another after Christmas specifically with some of these prompts in mind - I'm so happy the meme accepts non-TFA prompts

Chat Room

[(Anonymous)]

Would any of you guys be interested in starting an IRC channel or skype group for this meme? A lot of others have them and they're usually really fun.

1. If you don't have your own irc client, go to https://mibbit.com/ & click "launch mibbit client."
2. Make sure the box next to "Connect" says "Mibbit [webirc]"
3. pick any nickname you want. you can change it later or just call yourself anonymous.
4. Next to "Channel" type "#swkink". Don't forget the #.
5. That's it!

Re: Chat Room

[(Anonymous)]

I've never done something like this before, but it's actually a really interesting idea!

Maybe you could try hosting an intro night? Like, pick a certain date and time to encourage people to come check it out, so nobody's logging on and finding it empty. Like a party, how fun would that be!? :D

If you do decide to do that, maybe ask the mods if they're okay with you posting a comment about the time and date in the main meme, for people who track the main post but not the discussion post?

Star Wars Anthology Movie Wishlist

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm super excited about the standalone Anthology movies and the potential to focus on specific characters and eras outside of the main trilogies. Sooooo, my question is: if you could pick anything in the Star Wars universe to be the focus on one of the Anthology movies, what would it be?

For me, it's one hundred percent an Ahsoka movie, especially one that follows her from The Clone Wars to Rebels.

Re: Star Wars Anthology Movie Wishlist

[(Anonymous)]

I'm kind of dying for the young Han Solo series, as long as he is well cast! I doubt they will use any stories from the Legends books but I'm still interested in seeing what they come up with.

Luke/Leia

[(Anonymous)]

I'm looking for other Luke/Leia shippers :) They're such a good ship imo. idk if it even has a name though, skygana?

Re: Luke/Leia

[(Anonymous)]

*waves hand* YES! HI!

[(Anonymous)]

To those who have read any expanded universe books (official canon or Legends - I'm interested in it all), which are your favorites?

[(Anonymous)]

When it comes to Legends, definitely the Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zahn (Heir to the Empire; Dark Force Rising; The Last Command). Set some time after Return of the Jedi, it reads like a perfect sequel trilogy - it's got the spirit, the adventure, and the cast are all perfect. It also introduces several characters that become big parts of the EU, like Mara Jade, as well as Leia and Han's twins. Honestly, it almost feels redundant to recommend it, because 99% of EU rec lists you'll find will have the Thrawn Trilogy at the top, it's THAT popular. You could read anything by Timothy Zahn and it would be worth it, he's a great Star Wars writer.

In the prequel era, I'm really fond of the Jedi Apprentice books, focusing on Obi-Wan's time as a Padawan with Qui-Gon. There's lots of them, but they're for younger readers so it's easy to breeze through them. Be warned, though, they tend to roll into one big story, meaning as soon as you finish one you'll want to read the next!

As for the new canon, I've only just started getting into it, but so far my favourite has been Before The Awakening by Greg Rucka. It's another younger reader book, split into three short stories focused on Finn, Rey and Poe before the new movie. It's really cute and provides some interesting back story that could be really useful for fic writers. I've just picked up Lost Stars by Claudia Gray, which I've heard really good things about, so that's what I'm reading next.

[(Anonymous)]

I just wanted to thank you all for taking part in this meme. Even though we're not as active as the Force Awakens kink meme, you all have a lot of really great ideas and I've been loving the fills, too. Anyway, yes. Kink meme feels. :D

[(Anonymous)]

Awww, I feel the same! I kind of love that there are two memes, because we're getting the best of both worlds - a fast-moving giant one, and a smaller and more intimate one. They both have their pros and cons, but on one like this it's less likely that older prompts will be ignored because there isn't a constant stream of new prompting. Also, I think if *all* Star Wars prompts were allowed at TFAKink, any prompts beyond The Force Awakens would be largely ignored. Here, we've already had a really balanced mix of fills between different Star Wars eras. I love that!

[(Anonymous)]

before AO3, where were star wars writers posting their fics? lj comms? message boards? geocities?

i know that there were han/luke zines bc of the public backlash against that pair. have any of those been uploaded?

i'd like to merge the new kids with the old guard and hopefully find some good stories that i havent seen yet.

[(Anonymous)]

i think some of it was later uploaded to geocities, you can use archive.org to hunt down some of those pages. i wish i had any of the actual fanzines, i'm a sucker for zine culture tbh and i'm sure we're missing a lot of great vintage fanart

Why do you flat meme?

[(Anonymous)]

Hey all flat memers! I find flat view very confusing and annoying, and so I'd like some insight into why some people use/prefer it. I've heard something about needing to use it for screenreaders, but what about otherwise? What are your personal opinions on it?

Re: Why do you flat meme?

[(Anonymous)]

I use flat view so I don't miss discussions or fills on prompts from several pages back. On a meme like this where people use subject lines,it's easy to figure out which comment belongs to which thread. The alternative would be constantly going back to check all the older pages, or only seeing new prompts and not following discussions at all. Either of which are fine, but I prefer to follow everything, chatter is part of a meme's personality for me. If flat view doesn't work for you, it's no big deal, just do what makes you feel most comfortable :)

Random (mostly cracky) Prompt Generator

[birdsquirrel]

I was inspired to make a random prompt generator:
http://www.generatorland.com/usergenerator.aspx?id=12875

Given that it includes characters from the all the movies + Clone Wars, as well as a lot of AUs, it mostly spews out cracky prompts, but they can be pretty entertaining, and occasionally you'll get one that isn't cracky at all.

Some choice examples:
-Jar Jar Binks and Jabba the Hutt on Naboo plotting the downfall of R2-D2.
-Mon Mothma and Anakin Skywalker in a superheroes/villains au bothering Ahsoka Tano.
-Ahsoka Tano and Leia Organa in an everyone-lives au looking for Barriss Offee.
-Padme Amidala and Rex in the Rise of the Empire Era raising a child version of Rey.
-Wedge Antilles and Chewbacca in a Prohibition au plotting the rise of Cad Bane.

Enjoy! ;)

This is hilarious, thank you!

"Anakin Skywalker and Poe Dameron as fashion models plotting the murder of Padme Amidala."

Ha!

Favorite EU characters?

[(Anonymous)]

Who are your favorite characters introduced in the expanded universe (including both Canon and Legends)? I'm just curious!

Re: Favorite EU characters?

[(Anonymous)]

Xizor, god help me.

hugs (knock on wood)

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you meme for not having all the wank and nit picking of the other memes

Just knock on wood and BB-8 too. It's so nice to have an easy meme time.

[swkm_mod]

Should we have a temporary prompt freeze right now? Yes? No? If not now, when...?

Let me know what you think.

[(Anonymous)]

No. I think it might kill the meme. Well I would love to have more of the prompt still there is no way to ensure that they will be filled with a prompt freeze. I think continuously having new prompts keeps people coming to the meet just to see what they are

[(Anonymous)]

Seeking Beta

[(Anonymous)]

Hello! Not sure where else to go for this, so am posting here. Would love a beta and/or someone willing to bounce ideas regarding current WIP epic-length Game of Thrones crossover fic (90% written). Current summary: Luke and Leia Lannister have a secret. If anyone is interested, or knows somewhere else I can post to ask about this, please either respond here or send a message to fakeinnovember@yahoo.com.

Thank you :) And sorry for interrupting the awesome giffiness here to beg favors
