( Let's do that timewarp again )

These days are good for (very) short fic. Here are some Star Wars recs:
"Aere Perennius" is a great twist on the "Imperial Trilogy characters contemplate Republic Trilogy characters" motif (thank you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
butterfly, for the terminology which I like far better than Classis and Prequels) as well as on the question of how history comes down to us. It's deliciously ironic.
"Lesser Worlds" is a good Padmé vignette, and I also like this take on Palpatine.
On the non-fictional side of the Force, if you need c heering up in matters Star Wars after all the angst the release of RotS and its aftermath put you through - I'm thinking ofmerrymaia here, go and read Carrie Fisher's speech about George Lucas (during his getting honored in the AFI). It's hilarious and funny and affectionate at the same time.
Also funny, because I'm easily amused, is this exchange re: Lucas and Spielberg. Theirloveisso70s.

And lastly,yahtzee63 wrote another great Jack Bristow vignette, set between seasons 2 and 3. I'm totally not influenced in my praise by the fact the Other Crafty First Generation Spy is also there.
