Why this must be read:
Not to generalize, but there’s often a good reason for songfic’s questionable reputation. As the author herself points out, a number of them seem to be ‘the province of teeny-boppers with few brains and large obsessions with boy-bands’. So you can imagine my relief at discovering this gem, a songfic that deals so touchingly with the different perceptions one can have – about others and about oneself.
This is probably more of a character study than a straightforward story, but there’s a strong narrative thread running throughout, even with the alternating focus on different time periods and different people. In the end it all goes back to Anakin, the man he was and the man (because he’s still a human being, after all) that he becomes – not just from his own perspective and experiences but those of Obi-Wan, Padmé, and his children as well.
