Ceillean posted:So Jaina gets pissed because he forgot a date, huh? I find she tends to overreact but they, that's Jaina.
Ceillean posted:Very...I don't want to say angsty but almost a little emo. But not in a bad way.
Ceillean posted:But it's kind of mean -- she knows he's in love with her but still she sticks around like that? She's hurting him by doing so, I'd think.
Ceillean posted:I liked his self doubts, though. How he can think about his own mistakes. Wonderful writing, by the way!

Maybe picking her up off the landing deck and taking her somewhere private wasn’t a crazy idea, after all. She needed it, he felt, even if she wouldn’t admit to it herself. And, if he was wrong – well, she could probably get a kick out of dealing with his delusions. Let’s have fun today together, Goddess, he thought.

Lonewolf89 posted:I can't believe I didn't see this earlier! Wonderful ficlet, McE! I'll admit, I have a love hate relationship with J/K but you do write them both brilliantly. Excellent work! I was laughing through half of it, and feeling bad for Kyp through the rest, though part of me would say he deserves whatever he gets.

carr3107 posted:I missed this before. While not a K/Jer, this is done really well. They both have more issues than the Coruscant stock exchange (if such a thing exists) but they might actually be getting somewhere near addressing them. Maybe.
carr3107 posted:The banter is hysterical.
