One great 'anakin and luke fanfic' is 'The Skywalker Bond'. It beautifully explores their relationship, delving into how Anakin's past actions impact Luke's journey. The story has some really emotional moments where Luke tries to understand his father's complex history. It also features some great action scenes that are true to the Star Wars universe.
In this fanfic, Anakin is in the hospital recovering from the dark side's toll on his body. Luke comes to visit, still hesitant about their relationship. Anakin tells Luke about his past, his fall to the dark side, and how he now regrets it. Luke listens intently. As time passes, Luke starts to help Anakin with his physical therapy, and they bond over shared stories of the Force. Anakin begins to see the good in the galaxy again through Luke's eyes, and Luke sees the potential for his father to be a great Jedi once more.
Perhaps a fanfic that delves into the time when Anakin was on the cusp of turning to the dark side. Padme could sense the change in him and tries to prevent it with the help of Luke and Leia from the future who somehow travel back in time. This would create a complex web of relationships and a race against time to save Anakin from the dark side.
The Emperor could still be a major antagonist. Even though Anakin turned on him in the end, his influence might still be felt. He could send his agents to try and find baby Luke to eliminate any potential threats to his power.
Anakin, on the other hand, has a complex history. He was once a great Jedi, then fell to the dark side and became Darth Vader. In this fanfiction, he is in a redeemed state or perhaps a state where he is still grappling with his past actions. His presence in the story is crucial as he is the father figure that Luke has been seeking to understand.
In this fanfiction, Luke might initially be in awe of meeting his father, Anakin. He could be conflicted between the image of the evil Darth Vader and the redeemed Anakin he has heard about.
The main characters are Anakin and Luke. Anakin has this whole arc of being a Jedi prodigy, falling to the dark side, and then potentially finding redemption. Luke is the one who has been on a journey to discover his heritage and become a great Jedi. When they meet, it's like two parts of a story coming together. Their different experiences with the Force, their relationships with other characters like Leia and Han, all these elements can be explored through their encounter in the fanfiction.
Maybe Anakin meets Luke on a desolate planet. At first, Luke is hesitant and a bit scared as he has heard so many stories about Darth Vader, Anakin's dark side. But Anakin shows him that he has regained his true self. They start to talk about the Skywalker legacy, and Anakin tells Luke how he wishes he could have been there for him while he was growing up, and how Luke can avoid the same mistakes he made.
Luke's story is one of self - discovery and redemption. He starts as a simple farm boy on Tatooine, longing for adventure. He discovers his Jedi heritage and goes on to fight against the Empire. Anakin, on the other hand, was a slave boy with great potential. His fall to the dark side was tragic. He was lured by the power promised by Palpatine. But ultimately, Luke was able to bring some redemption to Anakin's legacy.
