Is it sad that I found him absolutely adorable in his crankiness? Or that his red nose and three days worth of scruffy beard made me want to wrap him up in a blanket and hold him?

Ah, love will do that.

Now turn about is fair play. grin

I loved this, can't wait for more. applause

Han got sick.

Han did not want to admit to being sick.

Han was whiny.

Han was cranky.

Han was getting on Ynna’s nerves.

Han is lucky that he didn’t get thrown off the balcony.


laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh

I was missing this story so much!

Hehehehehe! laugh

I too am a whiny sick person. I want to be read to, and coddled, and cared-for. Of course my husband doesn't stand for this behavior, but he does always make sure that I eat and don't get dehydrated. hugs

Heee!!! Now it's Ynna's turn to be pampered!!!! This whole update was one big LOL moment. hugs applause
That's what you think...

Men tend to be big babies when they are sick, even if it's just a tiny little cold. I've noticed that most of the females that I know just slog through their own illnesses; you know, too much stuff that needs to get done. The men just don't seem to take over what we do, the motto is "the dirty clothes aren't going anywhere, they'll still be here when you get better." Kids need to be dropped off to/picked up from school, meals need to be prepared, etc. The clothes will be there, in a bigger pile, so we just keep up with it so we're not completely drowning in them when we finally feel better.

Maybe Han will be different, or maybe he'll just try and wheedle Chewie into it for him. I guess we'll see.

Anyway, poor, sick Han, poor baby... hugs the bendy straw just was over the edge; it had me cracking up! laugh

I'm going to agree with dm1 here! Ynna may get sick, but she'd better not count on Han giving her a glass of something not alcoholic and with crushed ice!! He'll be too busy catching up on his smashball scores. Then, when she's all better, he'll bring her flowers and ask why she's mad at him! laugh

Brain: Now, Pinky, if by any chance you are captured during this mission, remember you are Gunther Heindriksen from Appenzell. You moved to Grindelwald to drive the cog train to Murren. Can you repeat that?
Pinky: Mmmm, no, Brain, don't think I can.

A great update! applause applause I'll forgive the following anti-male comments, due to the situation the author was in:

Okay, I admit it. I don’t understand men. I never have, and I never will.

I’m not sure men understand themselves. In fact, I’m fairly certain that they don’t.


And all women understand everything about themselves, I suppose? plain raised_brow

I do, however, agree with what she wrote here:

You know in every relationship there comes a moment of truth – a test that you know you have to pass or it’s all over?

We just had ours.

The jury is still out on whether we passed or not. I didn’t kill him, so I guess I should be grateful for that. So should he.


Considering what she later says she felt about him even when he was sick and irritable, I'll say she's got it bad! laugh

I can well believe this about an ill Han:

Han got sick.

Han did not want to admit to being sick.

Han was whiny.

Han was cranky.

Han was getting on Ynna’s nerves.

Han is lucky that he didn’t get thrown off the balcony.

One minute, he’s telling me that he’s not sick (despite all evidence to the contrary) and the next he’s sprawled on the couch and whining for something to drink. With ice. Crushed ice. In a tall glass. Oh, but not too much ice. And not juice. Nothing alcoholic. (He was mistaken there, I had gotten out the booze for me since I could see where this was going) And he wanted a bendy straw.


So that's his secret vice? shock Bendy straws! mischief I wonder how his enemies would have used that information had they known. thinking wink

I can see where Chewie's coming from here:

Chewie, the coward, pretended that he had urgent business elsewhere. Anywhere. I’ll get him back. Even if it takes me decades.

What a sensible fellow he is! applause grin He obviously felt that it was best the two of them faced a crisis (if a small one) alone, without having anyone else to help.

So Han is irritable about food, smashball results, his temperature, and other things? grin No wonder she's fed up! wink And yet, this is what she says:

As annoying and exasperating as he was, I just wanted to hug him close and tell him it would be all right. He looked more like a little boy than a hero of the New Republic, and to be honest he sounded more like one too.

Is it sad that I found him absolutely adorable in his crankiness? Or that his red nose and three days worth of scruffy beard made me want to wrap him up in a blanket and hold him?

Now he’s feeling better, thank all the gods.


As I already said, she's got it bad! love laugh Now, will she catch what he's been having?

I’ve got a tickle in my throat.

That can’t be good.


thinking Will we see how good a patient she is, and how good a nurse Han is? raised_brow

Well written, Vader! applause applause

MsLanna He's not exactly a gentleman, but he's good when things are tough. I have faith in him!

Jade_eyes My husband isn't a big baby when he's sick, but my sons are. rolling_eyes

Alexis_Wingstar Yes, now it's her turn to be miserable. laugh

Golden_Jedi Even love can only take so much whining! tongue

Blue_Milkshake My husband always acts shocked when I get sick, like how DARE I? rolling_eyes

dm1 Oh ye of little faith! shame_on_you

PonyTricks Yes, but Han has it bad. He just doesn't know how to deal with it yet. mischief

Kevin_Solo I have faith in Han Solo, though I seem to be alone in that. raised_brow

maramijade maramijade is forgiven. hugs








Entry #44


I’m fully recovered now. Surprisingly, Han was absolutely wonderful while I was sick. I know I must have looked awful with my nose all red and runny and my hair sticking up at odd angles.

Han told me that in some cultures a female with a red nose was highly valued as a mate and that made me laugh so hard that my ribs hurt. Then I cuddled up against him and he let me, even though I know the fever made my skin so hot it must have been uncomfortably warm for him. Han’s a very comfortable pillow, even though he’s so firm and… Okay, I’m feeling a lot better obviously, if I’m entertaining rather naughty fantasies.

Back to the point of my story -

He made soup and fed it to me, and I confess that although I was more than capable of feeding myself, I pretended that I wasn’t so that he would pamper me a little bit more. I’m a glutton when it comes to pampering and he might as well get used to it.

My feet were rubbed, my pillow fluffed to within an inch of its life, soup and tea flowed like a river spilling over a dam. He fielded calls from my agent and the gallery owner, from friends and family (my mother called and seemed strangely accepting of talking to Han instead of me!).

He worked the kinks out of my shoulders, brushed my hair, and even helped me hobble to the ‘fresher, though I drew the line at him actually entering the ‘fresher with me.

He even brought me water with a bendy straw.

If that isn’t love, I don’t know what is. And even if he never says it, I’ll settle for a bendy straw when I’m sick.
