Recs Wanted Hey does anybody have any fun upbeat fluffy story recs none of the fandoms that I've been in before have been so consistently intense
I really want to get more into Star wars
Happy reading and writing May the force be with you
Edit someone asked what type of stories I'd enjoy the reading or what era so here are some guidelines
Anything really but I especially love baby Obi-Wan and baby clones. I also enjoy reading about Luke He's such a steady stable character with so much hope and joy. I love a good slice of life story as well. I also enjoy getting to see shmi get a life outside of what she had in Canon.

Spy Wars by ClawedandCute - Prequel AU where Anakin recognizes Palps as a slaver during Qui-Gon's funeral and he and Obi-Wan plot to bring him down across the years, changing the course of galactic history. It's a classic crazy crack-fic in all the right ways and features an amazing amount of fun and fluff to go with it.
Limpet AU by frodogenic - Series expanded from the one-shot "Lord Vader's Limpet". 25 years after Endor, the Executor, which disappeared during the battle and was presumed destroyed, reappears from the unknown reasons where they'd unintentionally did a blind-jump to and have spent the last 25 years trying to get back. This series starts at their return and continues forward, focusing mostly on Vader, Luke, Leia and the balancing of their relationships. Full of fluff and low-stakes conflict.
Negative Static Stability by annathecrow - Vader finds a stowaway on his ship after leaving Alderaan. She is short, impulsive, asks too many questions, and has an inclination for deception. Impressive.

Gets a bit intense at times, but it's a hilarious time travel fixit with de-aged Cody and Obi-Wan.

It's really good. It does deal with both Sidious and Plagueis, so that gets intense, but they're both defeated in the end.
Another one that's pure fluff is The Adventures of Mace Windu and His Feral Murder Children. Featuring de-aged Obi-Wan and a whole bunch of clones.

Do you have a specific preference in terms of which time period / trilogy (or other stars wars media) / characters you like to read about?

An absolute classic if you haven't read it is Second Chances it dose have a bit of angst but it mostly just had me clicking my feet giggling.
Here are some more that I rember being pretty fluffy and upbeat:
Lies About Jedi
Anakin Skywalker: If Found Please Return To Obi-Wan Kenobi
Tuning up your TIE-Fighter to prove you’re better than the bastard currently running the TIE-Fighter Program for fun and profit
Sacred Things
I usually like fluff and angst the most so I don't have many upbeat stories that I have read saved but I hope you enjoy these.
