“Jyn was changing. It was evident in her fluid movements and her lucid stare…She'd shed none of her intensity, but it came with what Cassian could only interpret as a confidence bordering on invincibility.
She'd always struck him as a person unafraid to die. Now she seemed like someone who couldn't…
Jyn was changing. And through her, Cassian would do what was required of him.”
-Rogue One Novelization by Alexander Freed

Let's try this again... I didn't include a few of the more iconic songs in the last poll. Yes, it's all on me, I forgot some of the songs from the movies I didn't watch that much growing up. I have since done my research and am back to try this again.

Saw an Anastasia Jegulus edit so had thoughts:
Jegulus Anastasia where 10 year old Regulus doesn’t remember who he is and is separated from Sirius for a decade after the rest of their family gets assassinated (while the boys are trying to flee with their Uncle Alphard to Paris). He grows up in an orphanage surrounded by other children and learns quickly to be independent. Somehow his fingers still remember how to stroke piano keys beautifully, so he sits on a creaky old bench each morning to bring music to the bleak grey of the drafty orphanage walls.
James and Remus are drifters/con men doing tricks to get money for their next meal. Growing up together in a small village, they’re as thick as thieves when they move to the big city to try to start their lives. They want to leave and start a new adventure, but can’t afford to and they hear a rumor that the youngest Black son is still alive somewhere (there’s a generous reward for any that bring hope/information) and plan a con to trick Sirius with their own “Regulus Black” lookalike. (Or maybe James and Sirius were best friends in the palace where James’ mother worked and James is genuinely wanting to see his childhood friend again).
James runs (literally runs) into Reggie as he’s being chased by police for stealing a loaf of bread (gotta do what you gotta do) and he knocks him over and instantly falls hard when he meets light blue eyes and a scowl that has him scrambling up, pulling Regulus with him. Regulus doesn’t trust James (even though he wants to bc he feels oddly safe with him).
Adventure ensues and in the end Reggie & Sirius are reunited in Paris (cries into my pillow) after a decade and it’s a beautiful reunion. Sirius recognizes the melody Regulus plays on the piano (it’s one that their Uncle taught them as little boys) and he instantly knows it’s his baby brother. Also obviously has Wolfstar heheh but I haven’t thought that far but maybe a bit of enemies to lovers Wolfstar bc Remus can’t stand Sirius the first time he meets him (thinks he’s a snob and this spoiled rich boy)…idk HMMM
I might write it one day.

been trying to come up with a BattleTech “pitch” for fans of The Expanse, but honestly?
this is probably enough, plus the official “primer” document if you want actual information rather than just a bunch of pretty images and a banging soundtrack by Jon Everist (who I’m fairly sure admitted he wanted this piece to sound kind of Expanse-y)
or if you don’t want to click links or watch videos:
politics-heavy hard-SF space opera, thrilling heroics, (almost) zero easy answers to the dilemma of the day, main themes are “people are always going to be people” and “the end justifies the means, but there is no end”. obviously this describes both settings nicely.
one just uses that to explain why people are hopping into big war robots and slapping the shit out of each other.
