Fics like Gilded Chains

“General?” Rex’s voice echoes in his ears but it's muffled, like Rex is miles deep under water. “Do you know that woman?” “I think she’s…” Anakin is nine-years-old again, turning away from the hut he grew up in with nothing but a bag over his shoulders and sand in his boots. He’s 19-years-old and Owen Lars tells him his mom hasn’t been on Tatooine in almost five years. Anakin swallows thickly, “I think she’s my mom.” The woman, Anakin’s mom, raises a shaky hand to press against her lips. She used to kiss his temple, Anakin remembers, and the sand engrained in both his skin and the cracks in her lips would scratch against each other. Anakin wants her to kiss his temple, wants to feel the grit of sand scratching against his skin. She moves first, or maybe he does. Or maybe the two of them spur into motion at the same time, like engines on a podracer.
