Wow...that was an incredible post. You really got into the depths of Han's feelings, and showed just as much in Leia by your descriptions of the look in her eyes and the way she was sitting, stairing off into nothingness. Wow.

Another fantastic post! I cried all through that, not just for Han and Leia, but for Jacen and Jaina and Anakin and Chewie and Luke and Mara... Han is right, their family really has been shattered and scattered. At least we know that Jacen will return from the dead, and bring the others together eventually, right? tongue wink

Another beautiful, tear-jerker of a post, JPS! Wow, I think I just went through like half a box of tissues, lol! tongue Very, very nice work, my friend- I especially loved the description of Leia in the way she was sitting, staring off into space... the NJO just totally screwed the Solo family over, huh, lol?

Why is it that whenever you write an angsty post, you leave me in tears? wink This was another very emotional, very beautiful post- I especially loved how Han not only realized 'the truth' in Jaina's eyes about Jacen, but he was regretting the time wasted he could have spent with his boys... cry Why did they have to nix Anakin, why?! tongue

You have a talent for conveying the utter anguish characters endure in scenes like these. I always find myself either in tears or close when you write angst, and for some reason, it's worse when it's Han and Leia grieving for their boys... no parent should have to bury a child, after all cry

You need to put tissue disclaimers up on these posts, JPS tongue Wonderfully depiction of Han's guilt, Leia's grief, and their shared pain... I enjoyed seeing Kyp's outrage about Jaina not attending the funeral, too! I wish we'd seen that in DJ, you know? grin

cry I don't think any words could do that post justice... still trying to stop the tears, lol! This is the kind of raw emotion I wish we'd gotten from the books- why can't they hire you, hmm? tongue wink Keep the posts coming! grin

The depth of emotion you put into your posts is nothing short of astounding, JPS shock I could just feel their pain, and I could feel Kyp's anger with Jaina for not planning to go to Ani's funeral... I can't wait for the next post- is it too much to hope it'll be in the next day or so? grin

Beautiful work! I really do wish we'd seen more emotion in Dark Journey- they gave us glimpses of Leia and Han's grief, made it clear that Jaina was in agony but too numb to feel, but what about Luke and Mara, hmm? We know the deaths of the Solo boys were devestating for them, too, but they never show any of their grief, or concern for Jaina's slip to the dark side. Why is that, lol? tongue Maybe you will do it justice for us, eh? wink
