College au spring break trip and/or Sabine meets Grogu for the WIP ask game, please?

🏫 college au spring break trip

This is one of my AUs that I wish I'd finished— technically, it could qualify as finished, if I want it to have an unhappy ending with loose ends, but who wants that?

This fic, of course, takes place in my OUaT college AU. I haven't worked out every single nitty gritty of this au, but I know a lot about who's roommates with who, who hangs out with who, and a lot of the character dynamics. In this story, Emma and her roommate, Elsa, decided to go on a road trip together for spring break. Unfortunately for Emma, who isn't the biggest fan of huge groups of people, Elsa invited Mary Margaret, who insisted on bringing David, who wanted to bring Robin and Killian, and then Will found out about it and August and Belle and Ruby ended up tagging along too, along with Regina, all crammed in a rental van for a few hours.

When they finally get to the hotel they're staying at, everyone is exhausted, especially Emma and Killian, who, though they don't know each other very well or hang out very often, end up falling asleep together on the couch during a movie night that night.

I don't have too much plot worked out past that, but I've loved playing around with the characters in a modern au, and doing silly little things like implying that Will Scarlet is a tumblr user and that Robin Hood never pays for streaming services and instead just pirates whatever he wants to watch. This is also part of the AU where Will and Belle are exes who tolerate each other but are always being snippy and sarcastic toward each other, and August, despite being rivals with Belle and often bickering with her, cares about Belle more than he lets on, and goes out of his way to be as subtly spiteful and rude to Will as possible.

💚 sabine meets grogu

This one came about from me having a little empty space on my shelf covered in Grogu figurines and putting my Sabine Wren funko pop there, which lead me thinking about how, if Ahsoka had continued to train Sabine, then Grogu and Sabine would've undoubtedly met at some point in the Mandalorian/Book of Boba Fett.

In this story, Sabine isn't with Ahsoka when she meets Grogu the first time, because Ahsoka didn't want Sabine coming along on (or even knowing about) a finding-the-map-that-leads-to-Thrawn-and-Ezra mission, worried that her feelings might get in the way, and if they failed or came upon another dead end (there'd been lots of those in the last decade) she didn't want Sabine to be disappointed and weaken her already-a-little-shaky relationship with the light side of the Force.

However, Sabine does come along with Ahsoka when we see her in the Grogu storyline from BoBF. Grogu, who has been missing his dad Din a lot, is instantly drawn to the Mandalorian Jedi apprentice. Sabine isn't usually the kind of person that children are naturally drawn to, so she's really confused by this tiny green youngling who has been clinging to her shoe since she got here, but as soon as Ahsoka explains Grogu's story, Sabine understands.

But when Sabine learns that Grogu had to decide between his family and his training, she's obviously very ticked off, more upset with the Jedi order than any Mandalorian has ever been, and ends up telling off Luke Skywalker to his face, giving him a very large lecture on the importance of family to a Mandalorian, and how when you have a family, you should do everything you can to hold onto them, because you never know when you're gonna lose them, and how it's just not fair for Grogu to have to decide between the two. Luke, however, quickly realizes that Sabine isn't upset at him, nor is she really upset on Grogu's behalf, as much as she's projecting her own unhandled grief over everyone she's lost onto the situation.

I'm still not sure how this fic will end, but Grogu and Din will be reunited, and I might have Ahsoka tell Sabine about her already-formulated plan that'll bring them closer to finding Ezra than they've been in a long time.

Thanks for the ask!!!
