Thanks to a @notbecauseofvictories post I am now thinking about the OT3 of my heart aka jedistormpilot Arthurian fix it fic and like I’m not sure who is who but MUCH WANT.
ok, my knowledge of the actual content of Arthurian myth is kind of shaky and non-existent, but here’s my opinion from a purely surface level standpoint:
Finn: Arthur. rightful king, though he didn’t know it until relatively recently when he pulled a sword out of a stone. Not always sure what he’s doing, but has very good advisors.
Rey: Lancelot. noble and strongwilled, loyal to her king, very kickass. Absolutely terrifying with a sword. Falls for both Poe and Finn, naturally
Poe: Guinevere. raised by royalty (hi Leia!) betrothed to Finn early on, they are crazy for each other, but he’s instantly smitten with Rey when she arrives.
…and obviously there’s no affairs or burning upon pyres or anything like that. Alternately Poe could be Gawain if you wanted another knight? I don’t know why Gawain, I just like him.
Oh my gosh yes this is perfect (& yep, no burning for anyone. Unless it’s someone from the First Order who attempts to? @kingcaliphs ) and I love it.
Poe is a Prince, raised to marry a King, manage a castle, manage diplomacy and people. Finn was raised in obscurity, the one true King. Rey, born of the line of Avalon and magic with a sword. They cannot help falling in love, the three of them. But jealous Mordred, wishing Poe for himself, tries to ruin all.
(Spoiler he does not and the three of them create a golden age and have a whole bunch of children the end)
“I was raised to please my lord husband, whoever he might be,” Lord Dameron murmured under lowered eyes. “No matter what comes, I will endeavor to make you happy, my king.”
Finn didn’t reply; not immediately. He cupped Poe’s face in his hand, raising his head from his deferent position at Finn’s feet. “It would please me more if my betrothed would be himself, and to demonstrate his excellent horseriding skills. I’m useless on any four-legged creature.”
