space_swap has just revealed authors, so I can now share what I wrote. This one was for anr, whose prompts included "Padme and Obi-Wan run away with the kids and raise them together on some decrepit old star freighter that breaks down every other day" and so I wrote this. Which was (despite being too long for my current levels of energy) a very comforting and cathartic thing to be writing. And in the end, I was really very pleased with it.

(The only thing I wasn't happy with was the summary. I changed it four times, but everything else was worse than the original. Which was one of the nearly-titles, but I wound up taking it from this song.)

It was a fun fest, I really enjoyed everything I read or looked at that I knew, even though it was so tiny - Voyager, B5, Star Wars, Doctor Who etc.
