Happy Birthday, Vongy!
And, for your birthday, I have begun to read this today. Expect comments in a few days when I catch up.

Happy birthday... and you guys are 14?! Wow. *mumbles about Dentu-Creme and her sore back* You write so well!

Loved the latest addition. (To the family, and to the story!) Does she have any brothers or sisters?

Actually, I'm fifteen tongue Not that much better, but I'm still a year and a half older than dear old Vongy. tongue

And she's about 15-16 in this story, and we can't tell you about any possible relations, because that would spoil a few things that may or may not happen. tongue

I'm still curious if any of yall have figured out about our icons. tongue Of course now you'll probably figure it out quicker since I pointed it out. tongue

Oh and we may take a while to update, unless of course Vongy writes one quick like. tongue

No, I hadn't figured it out... I've never seen that pic of Jacen (Nor do I think it looks like him...)
So the significance of you having Jacen and Nen Yim icons is what? (Forgive me if you think it's obvious... I have been cramming for an early midterm... And staying out late... And hitting the caffine pretty hard... (I hated Mountain Dew before... But after this past month of needing it I won't ever be able to even look at the stuff.... Good thing there's Coffee...) In other words... My brain is fried... And scrambled... And now I am hungry... Darn....

Yeah, A description would be nice... Maybe you guys could get someone from Fan Art to draw a family portrait...

Actually Vongy already has some art of Eshaa. Yeah, if you didn't know, Vongy's also an artist. tongue She may give yall a link to it after we post the next part. wink And it's an older Jacen, but Jacen according to the title.

And there's no meaning behind our icons. We just thought it was funny.

Yeah. When I post the next one I'll post the link. happy

Oh, and spread myths about the two of us? tongue

Here's the link to the Eshaa art: http://www.deviantart.com/view/23373888/

And here's the next vig. It's about five years after "Blankets"



"Magic"

Han Solo sat back in his chair and regarded his granddaughter curiously. It seemed utterly impossible that a child with a mixture of Solo, Skywalker, and force-knew-what genes could be more content playing with her plush ewok than trying to dissect a droid. But it was possible, and proven in the form of a tall, skinny four-year-old sitting on the carpet in front of him, contently humming to herself and babbling to her teddy. Eshaa had been late to start talking, but now it seemed as if she never shut up.

“Kid,” Han said finally, “No matter how much you talk to the Ewok, it will never reply.”

Eshaa paused and looked at him sweetly with large, hazel eyes. “I know that, Grampa. You’re no fun.”

Han deliberated over his response. No fun? “What makes you say that, Eshaa?” he asked, leaning forwards in his chair. Eshaa pushed a few strands of straight brown hair away from her face and bit her lip in a pout.

“Well, since I got here nobody’s played wit’ me or anything!” she confessed. “When’s mommy coming back, anyways?”

Han paused, contemplating the path to take. The wrong answer could result in a violent temper tantrum, and in his experience there was no right answer when posed with this question. Putting his news-flimsy aside and fighting his way out of his chair, he pondered his answer.

“When’s she gonna come back?” Eshaa asked again, hugging her teddy to her chest. Han strode across the room and scooped her into her arms.

“Want to see how a glowpanel works?” he asked, changing the subject. Eshaa nodded. “Threepio!” Han called, “Bring me two lengths of wire, a power cell, and a spare glowpanel!”

“How does a glowpanel work?” Eshaa asked, leaning to watch Threepio hobble off.

“Magic,” replied Han with a trademark grin. Eshaa clapped excitedly.

“Magic?” she gasped. Han nodded.

“Yup,” he said.

“And you’ll teach me?” she asked eagerly.

“Yup. It’s pretty simple ‘magic.’”

Threepio hobbled back in carrying the supplies Han had asked for. “Master Han, I’m not sure what you are planning to do with those, but I’ve been told to advise you against anything dangerous. In the last four years, your reaction time has slowed point oh-one of a second and—

“Can it, Goldenrod,” snapped Han, taking the electrical equipment. Eshaa giggled.

“You called him Goldenrod!” she exclaimed.

“Master Han,” Threepio continued, “I’m certain that Master Jacen would be most displeased were any harm to come to young mistress Eshaa and—

“I said can it, Goldenrod,” repeated Han, carrying Eshaa and the mechanical parts over to the table. He set the glowpanel, wires, and power cell down first, and then Eshaa. “So, ready to see some magic?”

“Yeah!” Eshaa chimed enthusiastically. Han picked up the power cell and a wire.

“Okay,” he said. “This wire’ll take electricity from this power cell to the glow panel,” he explained, connecting the three components.

“It’s not lighting up,” Eshaa pointed out.

“Want to know why?”

“Uh-huh.”

“This is a circuit,” Han explained, “Well, half of one. Circuits always have to go full circle. So if we add this other length of wire and complete the circuit,” he said, snapping the last length of wire into place.

Eshaa gasped. “It lights up!” she exclaimed, clapping. At that moment, the door buzzer went off and Threepio hobbled off to answer it. Eshaa looked off down the hall, eyes wide. “Mommy!” she shouted, jumping to her feet, grabbing her plush ewok, and running to the door.

Han pushed the glowpanel to the center of the table and pushed himself up, feeling his back creak. He made it to the doorway in time to see Eshaa and Nen Yim turn to leave. “Bye, Grampa!” Eshaa called, looking back and waving. Then Threepio slid the door shut. On the security monitor, he could see Eshaa animatedly describing her morning to her mother.

No fun? thought Han, I think not!

I love that one, probably your best one yet, I think I forgot to tell you that yesterday. Oh and I was thinking of playing along like Codename_Targeter and I did a while ago... it's bloody fun. tongue

You know, I hadn't noticed anything about those icons until you mentioned it... you two are crazy. tongue

The pic of Jacen can't be all that old... he doesn't have a beard. (REALLY wonders what he'd look like with one and is way, way too lazy to try to draw it. Not that I'm complaining about pics. Has *any* official art of him ever looked bad?)

I loved this vig. So cute... I think you really captured the character of a child well. Good job happy
