I'm actually really sad she's going to have to take poor Wobbler apart. I hope she does rebuild him.
Now, onwards to find out what that dream was about.
Can't wait for the next post.

and he seemed to think Jaina was a five-year-old child who needed looking after and lots of affection no matter how often she tried to explain otherwise.
"Is it Jagged?"
"What?"
"You talk about him a lot," Wobbler replied.
"I mentioned him once."
Your descriptions are fantastic and I enjoyed the humor you've injected here.
"Can I have a hug before you take me apart?"
Aw! I'm attached and in only one post!

Just came across this- I'm hooked already.
I also believe "he" is Anakin.....
Wonder what everyone's reaction will be when she shows up?

This has got to be a record for you! Killing a character off in the first chapter, even if it isn't organic. Someone must not have liked Wall:e
Anyway great chapter. You wouldn't think this chapter would have much, but it does. Rarely do good things happen to Jaina's friends, and you show that here. She doesn't think that the he is Jag, but that could possibly be misdirection. I'm really enjoying this Yobs!

I Love Wobbler! even though he has to be taken apart. He kind of reminds me of 3PO in a very childish way. Great Job!

Wobbler is awesome!
Sounds like just the kind of friend Jaina would need after everything she went through.
Too bad she has to take him apart.
Definitely interested in where you're taking this.

A great post , and can I get on any pm list you've got going for this?
Thanks!

Quite the yarn you're building, filled with all sorts of interesting tidbits, as usual. So far, Dagobah, the cave, her burns, Wobbler, the mysterious "he" she must save... all adds up to more mysteries.
I look forward to more.

RE: Blood Trail (Post-LotF: Jaina, Tahiri, Ben, Jag, Han, Leia, Luke) Updated 7/1/08!
OOOO I am so glad I found this! It's a very different take on what will Jaina do next:
Instinctively she reached for her lightsaber and again felt silly. She'd dismantled the weapon when she left the Jedi Order and came to Dagobah to live in solitude. In order to defeat Darth Caedus— to kill her twin brother, Jacen Solo— Jaina had chosen to become something other than a Jedi. When it was over, there was no going back for her, and she was wise enough to know that if she continued, she would only be following her brother's path. She could feel that he had made a similar choice once, deciding that the Jedi way just wasn't enough, and that the ends justified the means to secure galactic peace...
There would never be peace for her, she knew, but she needed to be alone. It didn't matter where, Dagobah was simply the first planet that came to mind.
She left everything behind.
Excellent! So sad, but realistic.
The dream at the start was pretty intense. And I like Wobbler, she better not dismantal him, he's got personality.
Can't wait to figure out how the blood trail got on her again.

I IZ DA WINNER!!!
Way to go
Jaina is killing her only friend? How mean...
Well,
dismantling
him
Hopefully we'll see Wobbler again.
Thanks for reading and your reply
Ant
:
Dammit!! Second.
Nothing wrong with that
See, this is what happens when I take a 30-second chocolate break.
I endorse chocolate breaks no longer how long they take
Replying to some replies first..
I seem to be. Just in the right place at the right time, I guess (until now, that is). :-p
You were still pretty quick!
Well, you know what I'm talking about now!
And yeah, I'd heard the news about Zekk. *sighs* Well, he was never a big favourite of mine, anyway.
Me either really. Though I thought he was pretty good in LotF.
Yeah, because he's awesome!
Agreed
Ah, ok, I'd not heard of that (should really read the books). Thanks for the clarification.
No problem. It was one of my favorite parts of the book.
Well, I've only read a handful of pages from the whole series, and what I read bored me. The NJO really kicked a** compared to LOTF. I think it had something to do with Anakin..
I think you're right
Cool. I'm really looking forward to what you've got up your sleeve for Luke. If half the things I'm speculating about Luke come about in this 'fic, it's going to be an interesting ride, that's for sure. I really can't wait!!
We'll see Luke in a little while. We've got a couple other stops to make first...

Jaina Jaina...

Thanks for reading and replying!
Jag4Me
:
Dang it! How did you get me all mushy over a droid?!
I'm not sure
He really won my heart when he asked her if it was Jagged.
That must be it then
Wobbler has a mind like a steel trap. I'm sure he won't be letting go of that.
Excellent update! You gave me just enough to keep me wanting more!
Thanks so much and thanks for reading
Ant
:
I'm too lazy to do another edit
I'm the same way
*hums LOST theme music*
*Checks calender and sees that it's 7 months until
Lost
comes back*
Again, lovely opening paragraphs with amazing descriptions!! Feels like I'm on Dagobah, sweating my guts out with her.
Thanks! I'll get you a towel
While I'm on that train of thought, I'll make a random observation -- if Jaina's sweating this much, on a regular basis, she's kinda lucky she's in exile. I doubt after two years she's got much deoderant left, and those swamps don't exactly look like they'd cleanse the skin too well.
Perhaps Jaina makes her own deoderant and even soap. She's kind of like the Tyler Durden of Dagobah
But seriously, we all know girls don't smell bad when they sweat
Not Anakin?!? *is hopeful*
That would be cool...
Oh.. it's just a droid.. Oh well (but it was great to read the descriptions of Jaina's electronic friend -- brilliant writing there!)
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. It was fun to write about.
Aww, this is really cute!! You're making me love a droid that's not R2 -- how dare you!
lol. It took me some time to decide what personality to give to Jaina's sidekick, and I wasn't even sure whether to make it a droid or not, but I think this one will work otu best.
Aww, again! Allana!! What a little sweetie! *hugs for Allana*
We'll be seeing her later as well.
This part made me LOL, though -- "having the voices in her head start answering"
Hehe. Jaina wasn't planning on using the Force to keep her sanity so she had to do it another way than Yoda and Obi-Wan.
LMAO!!
Glad you liked that.
*snorts*
*spits coffee all over computer screen*
This is great -- Wobbler is classic!
Cool, I'm glad you like him so much
Ooh, so that's what she's doing. She's getting out of there.
Yep. I guess we can assume she believes that message from her brother, if that's what it was. The blood stains probably help...
Ok, I just had a horrible thought. Wobbler's been constructed with various parts, right? Is Jaina going to have to destroy him - her only companion for two years - so she can get off the planet to save Luke?
You're good
Right on as usual.
Little droid's got a stellar memory.
We'll probably get into more of that later.
Yep, I'm afraid I was right. She's gonna strip him.
It'll be okay
Look at those puppy-dog eyes!! Look at them!
*Ant imagines Wobbler looks like Wall-E*
Only a little more scrap-like.
I haven't seen that yet, but it looks really cute. Definitely want to see Kung Fu Panda more though
*wipes away a tear*
I wasn't crying, honest!!
Aww. Don't worry, I won't make fun of you...
What a sweet, sweet little droid! Such a lovely creation there, YK.
Thank you, glad you've taken a liking to Wobbler. I wasn't really sure what everyone's reaction would be.
I thoroughly enjoyed this chapter! It had lots of snappy humour, and a few touching moments with Wobbler. I heart that little guy. Can't wait to read more!
Aww, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it so much and am honored you think so much of Wobbler.
Thanks for reading and replying!

This has got to be a record for you! Killing a character off in the first chapter, even if it isn't organic.
Actually, I introduced and killed a character named Wylla Kor back in the first chapter of Exodus. It was from her PoV too, and the death was quite gruesome
Someone must not have liked Wall:e
Haven't seen it yet, but I'm hoping I'll get a chance. A couple others I'm more anxious to see at the moment.
Anyway great chapter.
Thanks!
You wouldn't think this chapter would have much, but it does. Rarely do good things happen to Jaina's friends, and you show that here.
Thanks, it was mostly just about showing Jaina's reaction to her "dream"— that she believes someone is actually in danger and is going to do something about it, but I also wanted to show more of what her life was like on Dagobah and that meant introducing Wobbler.
I was considering making her "sidekick" a "Hit-Squib" who'd been stranded on Dagobah after trying to kill her (see Dark Nest if you haven't read it, the Squibs put a hit out on Jaina
) but a droid will work much better into the overall plot of the story for a number of reasons
As you pointed out, I think it also reveals something about Jaina's character and her relationships with others.
She doesn't think that the he is Jag, but that could possibly be misdirection.
Very good point. We'll find out who Jaina thinks it actually is in the next chapter.
I'm really enjoying this Yobs!
