So much fun! Just the right amount of angst and drama to keep it interesting but never frustrating. Full of catharsis and a great comfort read. One of my absolute favorites!

I love this fic! Not only is it truly, honestly, laugh out loud funny, it has so much heart and sweet moments that just make you happy as well as some incredibly well written scenes and new ways to alter cannon situations. The characterization is on point and everything that happens feels real and like it could actually happen in cannon. It is so well written and fits the characters and universe so well. There is very little romance, other than the cannon Sokka/Yue, so anyone could read it without having to worry about the pairings.
This is one of the funniest stories, fanfic or otherwise, I have ever read! It somehow manages to include a lot of funny references without being distracting or out of place for the universe too. Everything fits perfectly in the story, environment, and characters. All of the dialogue and jokes are in character and feel like things that it would be possible for the characters to say or do, even if there are more than typical in an episode.
Honestly, plot wise, if this situation had happened in cannon I could easily see it going much the same way.
Cannot recommend this enough.

A great story! Uses aspects of show and book canon with fan theories and concepts to make a very satisfying and well done ending to the story. Fulfills the themes of its source material, doesn't demonize anyone although some characters are dark and show similar endings to canon, but manages to have all character arcs smoothly follow through and make sense. Great story and well worth a read.

Summary
For a thousand years the people of Naboo have mourned their most beloved Queen.
But every youngling knows that Queen Amidala is just sleeping, waiting for when Naboo needs her again.
And in desperate times, even those who know better can be persuaded to believe in fairytales.
But the problem with a legend is that some of it is true, but some of it isn't.Bookmarked by LiztheUnconquerable

Bookmarker's Notes
This is beautifully written, great atmosphere.
I love the little touches that we understand, but the main character doesn't. How the myths have changed to reflect and how bits and pieces are still there.
I love the idea that future Skywalker decedents are still being guided by the Force to be a, for lack of a better term, force for good. To restore balance and help people.
I like the way Leia interacts with her hundred's time great niece and how she seems to have truly forgiven Anakin.
I also like the ending, how the myth of Anakin's revenge against the Sand people has evolved.
I also to think that the woman on Tatooine meets Luke. If so I feel like both women kind of reflect the opposite sibling and need the one they meet to push and provide something they have lost. Anne needs someone to drive her onward, to fight for herself and others, just as Luke needed Leia to drive him from Tatooine. And the woman on Tatooine is looking for revenge, she could need someone to calm her and keep her from loosing herself, which Luke would be great at.
I like how both women go to places associated with the parents and probably meet the children.
I also love how Padme is Naboo's King Arthur. She does not get enough credit and deserves all the recognition she can get. She really was the driving force for saving her planet, other characters certainly made a difference, but it was all her decisions and actions which truly saved the planet. And she deserves to be remembered for it.
I also just l like stories which look at fandoms from this great perspective of time. It makes it feel real and profound to read about our beloved characters becoming legends and being admired or discussed long after they are gone. I wish there were more stories like that.

Love this story of misunderstandings! Love how capable it portrays Sansa and how happy she is to find her family again, only to figure out what she is running from is not what she thinks it is.

Summary
When Daenerys visits Winterfell to ensure the kingdom's well-being, she realizes what had her nephew brooding so during his tenure in the South. Indeed, the Queen in the North is a striking thing, in beauty and persona alike. It's no wonder Jon couldn't bear to be parted from her. Now, it's Daenerys' intent to ensure that he never has to be.
Targaryen men always did love their Stark women, after all. It's only a matter of getting them to act reasonably about it.

Hilarious and Perfect! This is exactly what I would expect if the Daleks were ever stupid enough to attack the Discworld. They always loose, it's narrative causality in action (great last line!)

A great story. Just as believable as canon, with lots of little touches to indicate where the characters could go from here. Would have been interesting to see what would happen to the story if things had gone this way. Very interesting read!

This is great! I wish we had seen Goose in Endgame, she would have been so much help! Anyway, I love the idea of Fury never telling anyone how he lost his eye and the truth is so silly!

Great story! Full of new and unusual pairings that are all well handled, to the point they seem so obvious and well done that you can't understand why you never thought of them before! Unfinished, but a wonderful read and well worth the time!
