	IIRC, it's five years post TUF. Whether Ben will actually be the proper age will be interesting to see. -----signature----- The Timbit Evangelist Dark Lady of the JCC Yubsié, Handmaiden of the Crest EUDF Commodore\| Assistant Empress etc.- WJFC See my bio for my memberships and fanfiction

	In a surprising new plot twist what Mara lacks in aging transfers to Ben through the "Alter Age" force technique. Ben is now one hundred and thirty-four years old. -----signature----- "What we do in life, echoes in eternity." EUDF- Commander Gold Squadron\| Security Chief \|

Including school Bah. Things here are more likely to be stopped by a heat wave. Especially when schools don't have decent air conditioners. Try 90-100 Fahrenheit on a daily basis in summer... IF: Trust me, snow ISN'T that exciting. I've had to shovel the stuff all my life and it's really quite troublesome, not to mention the cold is annoying. But I don't have to shovel it. I just get to ski on it. I'd probably have a different opinion if I had to live with it. Like most things, I guess.

	Try 90-100 Fahrenheit on a daily basis in summer... No different from here, in that respect. Although since schools are out in the summer, it doesnt affect them. Besides, I doubt they'd do anything. -----signature----- The Arena's Favorite Baseball Player Tournament - Come vote! http://boards.theforce.net/the_arena/b10777/29864047/p1/ I approve of NYCitygurl's sig

	I'm with Yubsie on the snow bit. Although it's summer in NJ right now, so it's all beach time for me anyway. DRAMA! -----signature----- EUDF Reserves

	Is there anyone else around who hasn't seen snow (like me)? I 've never seen snow. That is, unless you count that sudsy stuff at Disney World. -----signature----- Sorridom, a.k.a.

	I've seen snow, but it's been several years. Yay for desert-dwellers. I'm really excited to see Ben a few years older. We'll probably get to learn what his "thing" is (or lack thereof?). Jaina had ships, Jacen had animals, Anakin had mechanics... I've done lots of Ben speculation, though, in the now defunct Ben Skywalker Appreciation Party. -----signature----- Andrea "Music," Luke said. "This one likez it," Saba said.

	We'll probably get the token "Winter's watching the kid" line, and that's all we'll see of Ben. -----signature----- EUDF Reserves

	I don't think Mara will let him out of her sight if she doesn't have to. Plus, Winter's in geriatrics these days. -----signature----- Andrea "Music," Luke said. "This one likez it," Saba said. "It makes her tail shake.".

	Yeah, I can picture Mara being a lot more overprotective and possessive of Ben then Leia was with her kids. Especially because of the circumstances under which Ben was born and how long she had to go without seeing him. -----signature----- I steal candy from babies to prevent childhood obesity.

	I could totally see Mara being one of those stage moms at times. She seems like she could be just a tad psychotically (hope I spelled that right) and I could totally see this as being the next reality TV show on the galactic version of Bravo: "Next up on Galaxy TV (though it would be holos): JEDI CHILD MOMS AND DADS!!! come see Master Skywalker's kids as they go through the first tentative steps into the mastery of the Force! Will they succeed like their parents or chop the table in half with their lightsabers??? See all the laughs, tears, pain, in joy on this episode of JEDI CHILD MOMS AND DADS" As for the whole snow discussion... I live New England which means I get four hundred feet of it every winter (skiing is great up here by the way) and nine thousand degrees of heat in the summer. Right now its near ninety degrees and 90% humidity. God it almost makes me want the subzero temperatures and the horrible roads just so I can get skiing again! -----signature----- Ensign, Red 6 EUDF What if Leia had gotten out and "pushed"? --From "Little things that could have changed the universe It's only stupid if we die doing it.

	That makes sense from a character standpoint, but from a writer's view, it's very difficult to write a five-year old into an action story. Unless, as someone suggested, Ben has magically aged. -----signature----- EUDF Reserves

Mara is definetly the classic drill sergeant mom. Leia was the type of mom you see on the TV show Supernanny...
