Interlude I: Anakin's Vision
so i wrote this randomly earlier today - i havent posted writing in FOREVER but i thought itd be fun to give this a try. i might tie this into a longer story if anyone seems interested, but for now, here's this ;)
He is the Hero With No Fear. He does not hesitate. He is a Jedi. He is everything and everyone and all of the galaxy’s hopes and dreams live within him. Why are his legs shaking? 
He is emerging from a gorge of lava, an abomination of pain and white-hot rage. His lungs are on fire. The flame within his chest climbs up, up, up, slowly reaching its fingers out through his mouth, scorching the land around him. The fire winds down his body until it’s eating him alive. He watches the flames - they’re turning blue - as they wrap around the dark figures dancing around him - no wait they’re red - and soon those figures are writhing in pain, too. 
Too? 
Oh. He’s in pain. He’s screaming. 
The fire in his lungs is from the screaming; the screaming is from the pain. The whip slashes again, again, again, etching an arc into his too-young skin, again again again. His voice is shrill, and he calls out for his mother. His arms give out from where they were holding him up, sending him face-down into the sand. The scratchy dirt stings his raw skin from where the Master slapped him. It mixes with his tears and gets caught in his eyes. 
Oh. He can’t see. The whip is gone. It was never there. He was never there. 
There… where? 
There’s nothing but sand, sand, sand, eating him up and spitting him out. He emerges from the dunes and is presented to a mother who didn’t expect him, a world who was never ready for him. The galaxy stretches to fit him, but it’s still not enough. 
He is everything and everyone and all of the galaxy’s hopes and dreams live within him.
The sand fills his lungs and it scratches inside him. There is no water to dissolve the sand and not enough love to flush out the trauma. Time marches on. March march march. 
Marching? 
The steps ricochet in his ears as he storms towards the temple. His fury warps the air, like heat on a hot day, as if the Force is grappling with everything he is and everything he is about to become. It’s not what they had in mind. It’s not what she saw when she told him she loved him, that she was dying every day around him. 
Maybe it was. Maybe she saw death in his eyes and thought it was love. Maybe she thought that the rage within him was from long-suffering sorrow and not eternal-fire hate. Maybe she was an angel sent to purify him. Maybe she understood the death in his eyes but her determination wanted to turn it to love anyway.
Love, death. It will not matter in the end. No matter what, everything will be taken. By him. By the world. 
He is everything and everyone and all of the galaxy’s hopes and dreams die within him.

it's also worth remembering, right, that ed and stede both wanted that night. ed gives stede a nod before stede kisses him. he kisses back enthusiastically. he goes to bed with stede. we see him sitting a little shyly, on stede's bed - still fully dressed, even, where stede's lost his shirt.
Tumblr media
look at how achingly tender that face is. it's ed wanting to take care of stede the way no one took care of him; it's stede wanting to protect ed where he's failed in the past. it's a near-death situation drawing the love and need and desire out of them like bleeding a fever. it's accompanied by a romantic song. the imagery we're giving is fireworks. it's fucking fireworks for them.
the morning after, ed makes breakfast in bed. shares with stede the beautiful moment of his mermaid vision, which is an incredible show of vulnerability. you see the first sign of ed Having A Realization when stede says avoiding near-death situations isn't likely in their line of work.
then they go out to the republic of pirates, but ed takes stede out of the town and into the countryside, to a place where he feels safe. ed high-fives a child who isn't afraid of him. stede tells ed about writing him love letters. they're having a great day together, they're laughing, they're having fun.
it's not really until after ed sees stede becoming famous, until he sees stede stepping into the role of The Pirate, that he starts to pull away. jackie says he's trying to be a regular dude, and that sounds good to ed. trying something new. he wanders off to go watch fishermen and these shots are weird until you see that he's focusing on the twine the fish are caught up in - just like the twine he left stede on their breakfast tray, just like the twine he wrapped up his leathers in. and stede, who is feeling accepted and powerful and capable for the first time in his life, pulls back too.
they each want to be something the other is trying desperately to leave behind. how does anyone reconcile loving someone who loves the parts of yourself you hate the most?
when the fireworks clear, all you have left is smoke.
for ed and stede to find something real, something they can hang onto, they're going to have to put in the work. that's how you build the happily ever after. brick by brick.
