Star Wars Peal (Fulmination)
This is a single page for the assorted Fulmination Star Wars AUs, especially the ones that are part of the Star Wars Peal, branch from it, or feed into it. All Fulmination Star Wars AUs feature a Fate as Anakin Skywalker. Usually Ellie is Anakin's Jedi Master, Elesse, displacing (but not circumstance alting as) Obi Wan. Several of the AUs contain additional Ellies or Fates.
Recommended Reading Order
The Star Wars Peal is kind of a complicated beast. You can read out of order just fine, but a lot of this will make the most sense in this order.
The best place to start is probably the one girl revolution subcontinuity. This contains two threads, and is the start of a rewrite of the Star Wars prequels. It's the first thread set with either Fate Anakin and Elesse, and has some early installment weirdness. It's abandoned, but it serves as backstory/ context to some other threads.
The next thread set is Stars Ascendant. This is not a Fulmination set of threads, but is a small continuity introducing the backstory of Darth Occlus, who appears in several later threads.
Next is peace is a fiction of our faith. This is an AU of one girl revolution set after the OT, where Fate Vader survived Return of the Jedi. She meets Darth Occlus, an alt of Ellie who has been in suspended animation since the Old Republic era. It references the Thrawn trilogy, primarily Heir to the Empire, and as such includes spoilers for it. However, familiarity with the book isn't required for this thread.
Next is The Worst Genin Team. This is actually a Naruto glowfic, inspired heavily by hope is a knife. It can be read (and was written) after that instead, if you don't mind a gap after reading peace thread. It peals to peace is a fiction of our faith after the first thread, about two decades or so after peace thread. The peace set and Worst Genin Team on their own are the "shimmering peal."
Next is hope is a knife. This features Force Ghost Anakin in the time of the sequels, with a second Ellie, Fate, and Lily. She has a slightly different backstory than in peace thread which hasn't been written in full, but her backstory is explained on screen.
Next is plan for noon and plan for night. This is a pretty long series and is a Harry Potter rewrite, which peals to knife thread in foundations of the world.
Next is foundations of the world. This is set a few years after knife thread, and about a year or so after the noon continuity epilogue. The knife set plus the noon set are "the foundations peal."
Next is Two Sorts of Destiny. This is not a Fulmination thread, but is backstory for the Keres below.
Next is eyes of the fallen. This is an AU of both Two Sorts of Destiny and of the continuity/ backstory for hope is a knife. Force Ghost Anakin, several years after the OT, appears in front of the Keres in Worm, which is here a planet in the Star Wars universe. She interrupts Two Sorts of Destiny on page 12 (25 tags/ page), but some of the later parts of Two Sorts of Destiny can provide more world and character context.
Next is her lips taste like a loaded gun. This can actually be read at any point before love set me afire without spoiling anything; it's a roleswap AU of Palpatine and Elesse. However, it references characterization and plot events established in hope is a knife/ foundations of the world most heavily.
Next is the initiate fear. This is a divergence somewhat from the focus of the other threads. It's in Dianthus Star Wars (as written by Decima), which has different headcanons and underlying metaphysics than Star Wars as written by Diaeresis. This starts well before the prequels, and was written as an AU of the Legends book Darth Plagueis, where young Palpatine gets a very slow redemption arc. It additionally features an Eridani and a heartsblood Shmi, and is planned to feature a Ridis and a young Elesse (and an infant Anakin). Familiarity with Darth Plagueis helps provide extra context, but isn't required to understand what's going on. This subcontinuity is in progress.
Next is love set me afire. It's an AU of the backstory established in hope is a knife/ foundations of the world, where the timeline diverges after Elesse rescues Anakin due to the presence of heartsblood Shmi. It very briefly peals to and then unpeals from each of the other Star Wars AUs.
Next is doesn't anybody hold you, baby, an OT rewrite featuring the story of the Darth Vader who appears in afire thread. This primarily focuses on Leia Organa and Dalia Palpatine (who's replacing Luke Skywalker), who are doing some accidental twincest. This can arguably be standalone, though the hints to Vader's past will make more sense if you've read knife or afire threads. It is still in progress.
Future threads covering the resolution of the shimmering peal, further stories in the initiate fear, and the full Star Wars peal are planned but not yet started.

Notes:
This is a slightly different version of how Star Wars (especially the Force) functions than most other Fulmination Star Wars threads, since it's the heartsblood/ fuchsia headcanon version and not the moss headcanon version.
This pretty heavily references a specific Legends book - Darth Plagueis by James Luceno. This is written to be comprehensible without it, but it's a very good book and very recommended, and is good for Palpatine's backstory before thread start.
This was initially just going to be a self-thread continuity as a fanfic of Darth Plagueis, but Eridani is excellent and inserted herself.
