Where is my Star Wars mojo?

So I've been thinking about "Sun Kissed" for a while, but these last two days it's always been at the forefront in my mind.
Ah "Sun Kissed", my slave!Anakin/farmer!Obi-Wan AU brainchild. How I miss you.
I want to get the next chapter out, but it's been hard.
The last SK chapter was September of '09. My last new fic February '09. I somehow miraculously updated my Andromeda fic 2 months ago though.
The transition chapter.
That's where I am right now. After this chapter, the fic finally moves into its second act. The second act that is all plotted out and wanting to get written, but is being hampered by this chapter. It's been a difficult one to write.
And when I went to start writing this chapter I got stuck on HOW I should write it.
Should I write it linear, or in flashback?
Each had pros and cons but I was at a loss as to which would be best to proceed with. I now finally find myself going with flashback, as I can work with character emotion through reflection better than as it's happening.
But I still feel like there's a wall. And I know writers are supposed to write through their walls, and not to just write when there is inspiration, but to write even when there is nothing. Blarg. I haven't written anything in a long time. I haven't been inspired by anything new in over a year. I still have a PotC fic I want to write, but I refuse to start any new multi-chapters until after my current two are finished.
The stress of school has also not helped. I've been going hard a long time, and this year was insane. The last month was a nightmare. For a week after classes ended I was still waking up thinking there were things I had to do and places I needed to be -_-
I miss writing. I really do miss it. And the reviews ;)
I need to get this chapter out. The more I think about it, the more I want to write it. Stupid transition chapters ;_;
Sooooo. I now ask for some help if anyone would be so inclined. If anyone wants to show me their favourite Anakin and Obi-Wan pics/quotes/scenes/moments, by all means comment away! Maybe it will inspire me to finally get off my ass and write, now that I have the time!
