I know the feeling. Poor Ahsoka, indeed.

Thank you for taking the time to comment!

<3 Thanks for reading!

Oh, yes. I love the touches of PTSD here, Ahsoka's attachment to Anakin and her guilt--it's so well done, all of it ♥

Ahsoka and PTSD is an interesting topic, one that unfortunately will probably never be explored onscreen. She's really still a child, and the war must be affecting her in ways we haven't seen.

Urgh, I have been in the mood for some h/c, and you delivered very nicely. You captured Ahsoka well, her relationship with Anakin, and her actions in the war - how she can separate that in her mind from what she is forced to do. It couldn't help but make me think that she would do anything Anakin asked of her, even if it was something she knew was technically wrong.

Thanks for commenting!

I think that despite her snarkiness and disobedience, Ahsoka is very loyal to Anakin. It strikes me that there's probably very little she wouldn't do for him -I doubt that she would blindly follow him to the Dark Side, but that's about it.

Of course, I could be completely off-base on that. She's never been an easy character for me to write.

Thanks! Ahsoka is a difficult character to write, so I'm glad you thought that I managed to keep her true-to-form.
