Something so stupid I had to do it.

Year 17 of the Empire: Darth Maul's guides

"Well, so you guys are going to bring me to my date with destiny..." Maul said to the two Rebel agents he'd been given as guides to where Obi-Wan Kenobi was hiding - Tatooine was a large place, after all. Then he noticed something: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Master Yoda used your portrait to teach us that the Dark Side is bad." one of the guides replied.

"Jedi survivors?! How did you escape? No offense, but-"

"We don't look that smart, I know." the other admitted. "We got stranded on Naboo right before the war started, and by the time we got back to the Temple Skywalker and the 501st were storming it, but he owed us and let us go - with a promise to kill us if he ever saw us again."

The former Sith Assassin tried to tell himself not to do it, but in the end his curiosity had the better of him and he asked: "What did he owe you?"

"We helped him hook up with his wife."

"IN THE NAME OF THE FORCE, WHY?!"

"The Jedi High Council had sent two attractive and hormonally-charged teenagers off to a secluded planet, by themselves. They couldn't be possibly oblivious to the inevitable result, so we figured out it was the will of the Force we ran into him."

Maul looked at the two idiots, then realized the reasoning made a horrifical amount of sense.

"I suppose it makes sense." he admitted. "Now, let's go, you- How did you say you're called?"

"Tag Greenley."

"Bink Otauna."

"Let's go, Tag and Bink." Maul said, figuring out they had to have become smarter since then and be unable to screw up too much with him keeping an eye on them.

Alexander Julstan IV, Moff of the Arkanis Sector, blinked as he read the report that had just arrived from Tatooine. Then he read it again and again, and saw the words hadn't changed.

"Why did one of the galaxy's most infamous terrorists kill the governor of Tatooine by crash-landing his ship on him while he's in the bathroom?" he wondered out loud.

In the end it didn't matter, he had, after all, been looking for an excuse to assign Tour Aryon as the new governor as per secret instructions directly from the Emperor, this just gave him the chance earlier than he thought.

notes

Yes, I just put Maul with Tag and Bink, the most notorious screw-ups of the entire Star Wars universe. After all, they showed up in Solo in the court scene (and may or may not have been sent to Minban after a screw-up and be the guys who threw Han to Chewie), so I figured out they're Canon characters now. To anyone who doesn't know who they are, look them up - and yes, that's the reasoning Tag gave to help Anakin hook up with Padme, straight from their (sadly non-canon even for Legends) comic.
