[boomlover]

@Dark Wind ill hopefully try to get an post out worthy of advanced. ( considering i have to respond to one question !) sorry for not getting a new post out.

[Gwynbleidd]

Might not be able to get posts out tonight, very busy day today thus far. Did get some parts done, so no later than tomorrow afternoon!

[Lucky Knight]

Took a stab at an intro post. Also took some ideas and ran with them, and probably took some liberties while I was at it -- if the post doesn't pass muster let me know and I can try again.

[boomlover]

@Lucky Knight that... is a long post.

[Lucky Knight]

@boomlover -- I got excited. >_<

[Tsar Gatto]

Drinks with a Jawa?



Good post :-)

[boomlover]

@Tsar Gatto that... is the most cutest shit i have ever seen.

[Lucky Knight]

@boomlover -- Agreed.

@Tsar Gatto -- Some how, some way, that is going to have to go in my next post!

FURIOUSLY WRITING BEFORE DINNER (SORRY FOR CAPS CUS IM EXCITED lol)

I'm kinda loving how Anna is turning out. This is a nice surprise. All thanks to you, @Sohtem.

@Lucky Knight

Greeeeaaat post! I love the excitement. And all in all. Much approved. Very approved. Remember, martinis are meant to be shaken not stirred. #JamesBond4Lyfe

Anyway, back to writing. Time for some Aria/Alek/Ken duel fun!

@Dark Wind

Also, I lied. Obviously later than the afternoon. I should stop making promises.

@Lucky Knight @boomlover @Tsar Gatto @Sohtem @vancexentan

Posted!

I hope Leej becomes a mainstay character. There aren't enough Jawas in these party crews!

[Sohtem]

@Dark Wind Well I got some inspiration with her, so I figured I'd roll with it. :P

[Gwynbleidd]

@Sohtem

And it has rolled! Anna will morph into a beautiful butterfly of character evolution. I swear it!

... I hope.

[Gwynbleidd]

@MysT3CH And not to forget you either. Looking forward to when you can join the fray.

[vancexentan]

I hope the duels go well. I'm not especially fond of duels myself and Ken isn't a very aggressive duelist usually.

[Sohtem]

@Dark Wind As do I, will be getting my post up momentarily, hopefully it doesn't seem too sappy with what I'm trying to get across without being so heavy-handed XD.

@Sohtem

Ah, the eternal struggle. Trying to write authenticity without melodrama ... unless you're angling to become a tele-novella scriptwriter, anyway! Haha.

If you were worried about Xeviiy's internal conflict in the first half of your post then I can honestly say it wasn't too sappy. Seemed like a good balance to me, especially since she's young and doesn't really seem to have a great frame of reference for what she's witnessing. That, and the danger of being taught to think critically (or as critically as a Jedi *can* be taught to think) is that it isn't so easy to switch it off, and it can paralyze you if you don't have the experience or will to force yourself into a snap decision.

My two cents, anyway.

[Sohtem]

@Lucky Knight Yeah, big struggle sometimes, I just didn't want it to come off as a 'woe is me' sort of thing, but I did what to show her struggling with her ideology, whether choosing one action over another was the right thing to do.

@Lucky Knight

Pfffftttt, no melodrama? we need more Gone With The Wind flare up in here!

"No. I am your father."

"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."

But that is the damn truth. That authentic feel is hard to pin down. You did a good job Sohtem, I agree with Lucky.

[Lucky Knight]

we need more Gone With The Wind

@Dark Wind

I think you mean 'Gone With the Wookie'.
