Yes, there are some out there. You can start by looking on fanfiction websites like Archive of Our Own. Just search for 'Anakin and Barriss love' and you'll likely find a variety of stories. Some might focus on their relationship developing during the Clone Wars era, exploring how their different personalities and Jedi training could come together in a romantic way.
Often, the themes of forbidden love and self - discovery are present. Forbidden love because of the Jedi restrictions, and self - discovery as they figure out how this relationship affects their identity as Jedi. Additionally, there may be a theme of sacrifice. They might have to sacrifice their relationship or their standing in the Jedi Order for a greater good.
They interact in a complex way. Anakin is often impulsive and Barriss is more composed. So, sometimes Anakin's actions might startle Barriss. For example, in a battle situation, Anakin might rush in head - first while Barriss would be more strategic. But they also respect each other's abilities. Anakin respects Barriss's connection to the Force in a more spiritual sense, and Barriss respects Anakin's power.
One idea could be a story where Anakin and Barriss are forced to team up on a mission to a remote planet. They start off distrusting each other due to their different beliefs and allegiances within the Jedi Order. But as they face various challenges like dangerous native creatures and a Sith - influenced local warlord, they gradually learn to understand and respect one another.
Perhaps a story where Anakin and Barriss are both sent on a diplomatic mission to a war - torn world. They have to negotiate peace between two warring factions. Their different views on the Force and how to use it in such situations could cause some friction at first, but eventually they find a way to work together and bring about a truce.
Well, in the canon, they don't really have a significant relationship. But in a fanfic, they could start as rivals in the Jedi Temple. Anakin, with his brash ways, and Barriss, with her more traditional Jedi views. But then, after being paired on a diplomatic mission, they see each other in a new light. Anakin could learn more about the strict Jedi code from Barriss, and Barriss could understand Anakin's unorthodox methods better.
One common theme is the power struggle. Anakin is a powerful Jedi and Grievous is a formidable foe. Their battle represents a clash of different kinds of power.
Well, obviously Anakin and Vader are the main characters. Anakin is his pre - Darth Vader self, full of potential and hope at one point, and Vader is the dark, powerful Sith Lord he becomes.
One interesting plotline could be Anakin's struggle with his past self as Vader. Maybe in the fanfic, Anakin tries to prevent Vader from making the same mistakes he did, leading to intense battles of will and lightsaber duels.
It really depends on how you write it. If it's Anakin at his peak before turning to the dark side, he has a lot of raw power and potential. But Vader has years of experience as a Sith Lord. So, it could go either way.
