The Force is Contagious

This can be gen or whatever pairing(s) you like (though Anakin/Padme is sort of a given in order for Luke & Leia to happen). I'm ace and pure smut bores the hell outta me, though. If you want to throw in a sex scene I won't have a conniption, but I want to see some plot. Can be crack or taken seriously, whichever floats your boat.

So, we all know Anakin is like, half human and half Force Phenomenon, right? He and his kids all running around with their bazillion-million midichlorians in every cell and all that jazz, that's gotta have some kind of impact on everything around them, yeah? I mean, if you shake hands with somebody, some of your skin cells rub off on each other and whatnot. People swap germs that way. And midichlorians are a lot like bacteria…

So I want to see a universe where anyone who spends too much time in physical contact with a Skywalker end up with increasing sensitivity to the Force. Maybe nobody noticed the phenomenon with Anakin right away, since IMO Shmi was probably a sensitive herself, and slaves don't get much free time for physical interaction and are always being sold and traded and whatnot, and then at the temple everyone was Force sensitive already, but then he goes and marries Padme and all of a sudden they have lots and lots of, er, physical contact. Take that where you will.

Obviously, once in the suit, Vader's sealed off from the rest of the world and ain't no more midichlorians gettin' through those filters.

But fast forward to the next generation: as each year passes while raising a twin, maybe Bail gets just a little bit more persuasive in the Senate, and Uncle Owen finds he's a better and better shot each time they fend off those Tuskens, even in the dark, and Luke's bestest buddy Biggs becomes a more and more intuitive pilot, even though he didn't start off with even a fraction of Luke's mad piloting skillz, and then comes the Rebellion and Leia's clinging desperately to the remnants of the Alderaanian population, and the Rogues are all there for each other, crawling into bed with their bunkmates just so they have someone to hold when the nightmares come, and eventually after the events of ROTJ Luke is setting out to rebuild the Jedi Order and starts looking for potential students, only to find out, oops, like everyone he or Leia so much as hugged more than a couple of times is in need of some Force training.

I especially want Luke and ForceSensitive!Rogues, because Rogues are the source of much amusement and shenanigans.

Bonus points for:
• ForceGhost!Obi showing up towards the end and sheepishly admitting he forgot to mention that little phenomenon.
• Luke or Leia donating blood to the rebel blood bank at one point and having it go through some screening process only to be rejected for containing an unacceptable concentration of an unknown bacteria-like contaminant.
• Vader and Executor crew tactical meeting to discuss bafflingly increasing luck of Rebellion campaigns (with Piett and Veers cameos).
• Luke and Wedge feels because they're, like, DeathStarSurvivor!twins or something. I have a thing for Luke and Wedge. Not necessarily as a couple per se, though if you want to write it that way, it's cool with me.
• Awkward conversation along the lines of "you know that time we kinda sorta slept together? Yeah, well, I may have given you the Force. Oops?"
