That was beautiful! You captured those intense moments of new parenthood so well. I loved the gentle teasing between them, the flashes of humor and frustration, the crash of two strong personalities, the steady shining love.
But, oh, what a moment Qui-Gon picked to bring up a sore topic.
I guess they didn't cover the post-birth hormonal shifts in women at the Temple, huh? There probably wasn't much need for it. I loved the resolution they achieved, but I swear I heard Qui-Gon thinking, "
Suuuure
he's named after your uncle Ben. . ." But maybe that was just my overactive imagination . . .

Aww that interlude was so sweet! I luv the nice/warm/fuzzy stories that go on while the main story is so depressing, lol but in a good way. ....back to the interlude: I luved it! I luv how Quigon got his wife to name their first born Ben, and how she didn't understand him at times, you've captured Quigon's character perfectly it seems. This is such an awesome story, it can entertain one for hours when they start to read it from the begining, lol I know from experience.
I absoutly can't wait for more! I hope you've got the next chapter coming up soon, I would be so delighted! If you have a PM list, can you please add me? Thx

Diane.... awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww that was so wonderful.... sorry it took me so long to get to it, got wrapped up in discussing things in the resource board and forgot
Qui-Gon wanting to name his son after Obi-Wan is such a testament to how much he truly loved him even after it had been six years with no contact. If only Le'orath really knew why Obi-Wan stopped looking, perhaps she'd be more syampathetic and less hate-filled towards him. Excellent work!

That was precious.
The descriptions were fragile and beautiful, and I could just see them together like that. You have such a knack for Qui-Gon, and Le'orath's emotions were perfect responses to Qui-Gon's inner turmoil. I love their compromise, so wonderfully augmented by a mother's love. Really liked the idea of a baby's fingers clenching and unclenching against her skin... that's so
normal
for babies but it just is beautiful when you read it.
Much
, dianethx. I'm sorry it has taken me so long... been distracted by...other things. I loved it. So beautiful and soft.

Awww. Pity they had to argue about the name, and sneaky about Ben. But the story is a wonderful little peice of almost- fluff.

sweet but sad at the same time that she hates Obi-Wan so much even though she has never heard a bad word spoken about him

Musing
– Thanks. I always had intended for people to know that Ben was named after Obi-Wan and that Le'orath was not happy about it. This gave me the opportunity to show how much they loved each other and how much Le' was willing to let him have his way. She adores the big oaf. LOL. Thanks for reading.
Brightfeather
– Posting Betrayal soon….. errr. I'm working on it? Does that count? Honestly, I got caught up writing another story but now my plate is clear. Besides, you know me by now. It's not updated quickly because I write so darn slow.
LuvEwan
– Thanks, LE. Eventually, Le' will realize just how important and valuable Obi-Wan is to Qui. Unfortunately she's only seen that Obi has hurt her husband and she's a bit of a strong-willed woman who doesn't like those she loves to be hurt. Thanks.
Ara-gon
– LOL on the sore topic. I don't think Qui had childbirth 101 in the Temple. She's on a bit of a rampage at the moment. LOL. And you are right about how Qui-Gon is thinking. Sure, Ben's named for an Antilles, sure he is. Thanks.
Cole_Kenobi
– Betrayal is a bit of a downer, I must admit. I did want some warmth to come through and this was a good way to do it. Thanks. Le' doesn't understand Qui-Gon at times. He's been brought up completely differently from her and she does recognize it. Just doesn't always understand it, though.
I've added you to the PM list.
Layren
– Like I said, I had always intended Ben to be named for Obi-Wan. Le' needs to know why Obi stopped looking for Qui so that she can let go of her hate. Thanks.
Luna_Nightshade
– Compromise is everything in a marriage. I think that Le' and Qui-Gon are really right for each other, even though they tend to fight along similar lines. Thanks about the baby. I've had a couple so I put a bit of that info into the story. Thanks for reading.
Valairy_Scot
– Gotta have sweet once in a while. All that drama is wearing sometimes. Thanks.
Kivas
– No problem. If you want to be taken off the PM list, just PM me. No problem.
Independence1776
– Qui-Gon can be quite sneaky at times. But Le' saw right through him. Thanks. Love to write fluff once in a while.
Kitara
– She hates Obi-Wan because she hates to see Qui-Gon hurt. Otherwise, she wouldn't care. She'll come around, I hope. Thanks for reading.
It will be a while before Betrayal is updated. I have to make a quilt this month and I just finished another story. Sorry but muses are insistant little things. I am going to work on this story next however. Thanks for reading.

Ack!! Didn't know there was a wonderful interlude here.
Foolish gundark. He could be so vulnerable at times, especially when those he loved were in pain. How could he not see that he was everything to her, even when she was yelling at him?
DDon't know why, but that just brought a tear to my eye.
Wow, while I know her dislike of Obi-Wan is purely a protective defense of her husband, she is adamant.
That was just beautiful.

Great sidestory! Well done as always! Thank you so much for keeping me on the PM list! I love how Qui-Gon was sneaky enough to find a way to make sure that their son was named after Obi-Wan (even if his wife doesn't think so!).
Poor Obi!
(I seem to be saying that a lot in this thread) Being accused of abandoning Qui and not being there to defend himself! Especially when we all know he tried so very hard to keep contact. Blasted Council and Tharten!
Anyway, I'm very much looking forward to the next post for "Betrayal" as well! And you said that things aren't going to let up for Obi yet?
Maybe I should go find my lightsaber again so I can help him out. I do hope Atel's hanging in there too!

Wow! What a lovely little addition to this story.
I'm always in awe of your descriptions of Qui and Le's relationship. The interplay of their stubborn minds and loving hearts is just fascinating to me.

Being a bad author! Sorry. I'm still working on my quilt and another story. Well, at least I’m writing. That's a good thing. Right???
Leona
– I have to write from my heart whenever I'm writing about the big lug.
He's just so adorable when he's being devious. Besides, Le'orath understands her husband pretty well by now. LOL. Thanks for reading.
Sionnach-Airgid
– Qui-Gon can be sneaky when he thinks he needs to be. But his wife knows him well enough that he's not going to get away with anything. LOL. I had always intended that Ben was named for Obi-Wan. I was just glad that I was able to find a way to tell that little story.
Yes, poor Obi-Wan. He's not happy right about now. While I'm working on another story, I'm also starting to work on the next chapter. I'm just so darn slow. It's like pulling teeth or walking through frozen tar or those horrible nightmares where you can't get there from here.
But things are looking pretty grim for the Jedi and the Bendu and they aren't going to get better for a while, if ever. Thanks for reading.
raisedbywolves
– Thanks. I think Qui-Gon and Le' are perfect for each other. I love writing them.
Jaira
– It's fine. You had a lot more important things to do than read a SW story. Take care of the little one. Are you sleeping through the night yet???
I remember those days well. Thanks.

That was a heart warming story

. I only wish more married couple undestood the need to compromise and understand their partners' convictions. Then again I would expect little else from Qui-Gon Jinn.
