For Anakin, he could be on the verge of completely losing his humanity. His time on Mustafar has made him more aggressive and power - hungry. But when he sees Padme, a glimmer of his old self might start to surface. For Padme, she could be developing into a more determined and fearless character. She is no longer just the damsel in distress but is actively trying to save Anakin from himself.
Anakin in this Mustafar - set fanfic might be developing in a way that he starts to realize the true cost of his choices. His encounter with Padme could be a turning point where he begins to question his loyalty to the dark side. Padme, on the other hand, could be growing in her understanding of the Force. Maybe she starts to sense Anakin's internal conflict more deeply through the Force and uses that knowledge to try and persuade him.
One possible fanfic could be about Anakin and Padme's final encounter on Mustafar. It might explore Padme's desperate attempt to bring Anakin back from the dark side. She could be pleading with him, reminding him of their love and the life they could have had together. The scenery on Mustafar, with its flowing lava and harsh environment, would add to the intensity of the moment.
Well, Padme could try to fight Anakin to stop him from further embracing the dark side. She might use her diplomatic skills and love for him as weapons. For example, she could tell him how their unborn child would grow up without a father if he continued down this path.
Perhaps in the fanfic, Anakin has already fully embraced the dark side when Padme arrives on Mustafar. He shows her his new powers, thinking she will be impressed. But Padme is horrified. She tries to use their bond to reach the old Anakin inside. Meanwhile, the volcanic landscape of Mustafar could add a sense of danger and doom to their encounter, as if the planet itself is a symbol of their relationship falling apart.
There are several Anakin Mustafar fanfics out there. 'Anakin's Descent on Mustafar' is another interesting one. It focuses on the events leading up to his fight with Obi - Wan. It gives a detailed account of his fall to the dark side, the influence of Palpatine, and how the environment of Mustafar played a role in his downward spiral. The descriptions of Mustafar are vivid and add to the overall atmosphere of the story.
It could lead to a completely different story arc. Maybe Anakin wouldn't turn to the dark side and the galaxy's fate would change.
Perhaps there could be a growth in their understanding of each other. Padme might come to understand Anakin's inner turmoil better, and Anakin could better understand Padme's political world, leading to a more profound connection.
A good 'Anakin and Padme fanfic' should have a strong understanding of their characters. It needs to capture Anakin's internal struggle between the light and dark side, and Padme's strong will and love for Anakin. For example, if it shows how Padme tries to bring out the good in Anakin, that's great.
The theme of sacrifice also pops up often. Padme is often put in situations where she has to sacrifice her own happiness or safety for Anakin or for the greater good of the galaxy. And Anakin too may have to sacrifice his power or desires to be with Padme in a more positive way.
A good 'Padme and Anakin fanfic' should have well - developed characters. It needs to capture the essence of Padme's strong - willed yet gentle nature and Anakin's complex, conflicted personality. For example, showing Anakin's struggle between the light and dark side while in love with Padme.
