	Jedi_Suzuran : HEE! HEE! Very funny. First of all, I just don't get that Force-bond stuff between Luke and Mara. I think that the Force bond shouldn't exist. But that's just because I don't like Mara. Let me tell you about this fictional character that I created. She's called Kalinda Kenobi - yes, she's the Obi's daughter - and she is destined to become Luke's wife. I'll tell you sometime later, because I have to run. Aunecah_Skywalker

	Yeah, the Force bond stuff is silly. Someone pointed out that every couple, by definition, is Force bonded. After all, the Force is an energy field, it sorrounds us, it penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together. The force is in everyone, as evidenced by midichlorians. So, every couple should be force bonded. There's nothing special about LEUke and Tang. It was just tacked on to put some sort of stability or closeness to a very shaky relationship. -----signature----- FIGS Suzaé, Handmaiden of the Crest Su is like, the Den Mother of Perv -- Etessie For My Soul http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=9409845&replies=0 COMPLETE 5/26 ...as shadows claim my light.

	Jedi_Suzuran : HEE! HEE! Very funny. First of all, I just don't get that Force-bond stuff between Luke and Mara. I think that the Force bond shouldn't exist. But that's just because I don't like Mara. I can accept that there is a force bond. But why only between them? What about Kam and Tionne? What about Corran and Mirax? Anyone with the force can read their partner like a book. Like Leia can read Han, and he is perceptive enough to know her. Why weren't Anakin and Tahiri one person? They were very close, in love, grew up together, etc. How about Jacen and Tenel Ka? Aren't they force bonded? Why is it that only Luke and Mara are bonded in the force? It's all or nothing at all. The only difference is Timothy Zahn wants us all to believe that his Mara Sue is better than anyone else in the GFFA, so only she is capable of being that in love with Luke, and he with her. I don't buy it at all. -----signature----- It's been an experience. 8000, and done!

	Glad to see the hatred of La Matress still continuing in this late hour. It was said best elsewhere. The "Force bond" shared by Luke and Mara is just a way for the writers to cover up the fact that they don't really have a real complex and deep love. To me, from reading those passages it seems more of a physical thing. They don't love each other they just love having sex with each other. Even at the expense of Luke's family and the rest of the galaxy. Mara losing her ship is not a sacrifice. Ships can easily be replaced. People and planets can't. Just ask Anakin, Obi-Wan, Padme, Luke, Leia, the droids, etc. They all know what sacrifice is. -----signature----- New story! - What if the Empire: Missing Moments http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=10437137

	So I am curious which one of us leads? Ah, but who can learn quicker? A ten year old or a thirty year old? And there is a reason why one can't learn the advanced things at age 10. Because they're still learning the basics. There is a reason why a thirty year old can learn the advanced stuff. They've already learned the basics. To have a strong building, you need a strong foundation. Without a strong foundation, the building you build is not going to last as long. Luke lacks at least some of that strong foundation, doesn't he? Obi has that strong foundation. While Obi might be younger, he still has the same #of years of training as Luke, and he has a strong foundation in the basics of the Force. And, Obi has the same #of years of experience in dealing with the horrors of the galaxy as Luke (though Luke's might have been a little more intense). So, yes, we can compare Luke when he's 30 and Obi when he's 15.{/i] I agree fully with you, but one must also remember just because Luke had not had any jedi training he had been alive for 18 years (or so depending on this funky timeline thing) and so he had a base. It may not have been the same kind of base as others, but he had lived life and learned from it. The brain is different fundamentally at say 1 and 15 or 15 and 30. Differences in hormone levels, synaptic connections, activity levels, and other little joys (ah the joys of neurophysiology, ya think they would stop giving us classes in it after 2 semesters of it) so I can see where you come from, but I think its impossible to judge one person who learned at one age compared to another who learned as a much older age. The body reacts different at different ages. The brain addapts differently. Its funky like that. Once you build a specific base, sometimes it interferes with learning. Like with language and such. But I do understand your logic and to some degree I agree with it, but at the same time I think there is a lot more to it. [i]Isn't that what I said? That you're so familiar with things that you miss the subtle things? And that that might be the reason why the Jedi of the Old Jedi Order missed the construction of the Clone Army and the Return of the Sith Lords? Oh I know its what you said, but I think its a path Luke was also on. He was a mix of the two pathes you described. I think we both just got mixed up in communicating things. Hmm ... who is saying that just because Luke is developing his ability in the Force he is hindering his development in sight, touch, hear, smell, and taste? Just because he's using the Force doesn't mean he's stopping to see, hear, touch, taste, and smell. Besides, he has already developed all his five senses. He has been introduced a new sense when he's old and hence he's still in the process of developing his sixth sense. Hey the sixth sense. I see dead people. Just because you develop your other senses before introduced to a new sense does not mean regression can not occur. But actually the point I was trying to make was more about an overall development which is always ever changing in a person. No matter what new things are learned, lost, relearned, etc. New motor pathways, new complicated motor patterns, new learned reflexes, new thoughts, new memories, understandings, etc. If you focus in on one area too much you end up missing out. Here is something worth considering. Lets look at Yoda who spent a couple of decades on Dagobah(well so we think at this time). He was easily one of the most powerful jedi of his time and perhaps in history. Why wasn't Luke training with him the whole time, learning the force and how to swim deep into it the whole time? Why wasn't Yoda out letting loose with this super flip green terror attacks like we saw in ATOC or working with the rebellion once it was established? Perhaps he spent the time on Dagobah looking for the subtle things he and so many other jedi missed which allowed the Sith back. We were only slowly introduced into how Luke was trained by Yoda and I have always wondered if Yoda did not teach him new things which he himself explored during his years on Dagobah. I know its a tad off topic and such, but it popped into my head. I don't disagree. But to be able to at all explore even the shallowest area, you need to be able to swim. And, if you spend too much time exploring the shallowest area of the ocean, you will never have time to learn to swim in the deep oceans and go explore the deep, and there might yet come a time when you need to be able to at least swim in the ocean. I'm not saying you can't explore it. But to live out there would be overwhelming. Sooner or later one can not live in the deep of the ocean. One can only tread water for so long. I have no problem with going out and taking a dive. Looking around and discovering so much. Luke still becomes one with the force every once in awhile and explores its complexities. Mara never told him to abandon it. But Luke also looks thru the simple things and explores those too. Jacen got caught up with swimming in the deep end and exploring too much there. He missed out on simple things and it took a lot of pain for him to see some simple truths. Now I am not saying everything he learned was right, but some of it you can not see when you look too deep. I think what was trying to be put across by Mara(although it was not done expertly well) was the one must find a balance. Explore the deep, but also the shallow. Look inside as well as outside. Look up and down (I think you catch my drift). A comment I made in the fan club which was more a complaint with Zahn is that he puts out ideas, but never delves very deep into them. If he had gotten deep into the conversations and thoughts of people in VoTF it would have been a 700 page book and most likely not as many people would dislike Mara. Well Aunecah, I await you to boogy my way. Next time can we Cha Cha? Ok this part is for J_S. Mara let her ship crash into a fortress. Gee, that was a "supreme and rather ugly personal sacrifice." So she lost a symbol of her independence. Well, guess what, if the definition of becoming a Jedi rests on this criteria, then Anakin Skywalker should have been a damn Jedi Master when Qui Gon Jinn found him on Tatooine. Why? He was denied independence for the first 9 years of his life, as was his mother. And letting a ship crash is NOT a supreme sacrifice, any way you look at it. Yes a ship crashing is not the same as facing your father in a death duel or many of the other sacrifices discussed, but part of it depends on the person. I see where you come from J_S, but at the same time remember what the flanneled God put forth a long time ago. He let us know this universe of his is very much built on points of view. To Mara sacrificing her freedom and independence is very much a huge sacrifice. To others it may seem petty, but to others I would be willing to bet they understood exactly where she is coming from. Plus not everyone can make this ulitmate sacrifice. There are only so many fathers who need redemption and Emperors to throw into power cores. (I myself threw one off of some scaffolding last week and yet here I am still not a jedi ) The things is its about Sacrifice and sacrifice means a lot of things to a lot of people. I will never say Mara is on par with Luke or Anakin when it comes to sacrifices made in becoming a jedi, but not everyone can be. Does it really help? Seeing how most of the Jedi under Luke have fallen to the darkside, I'd say no. Mara is not in charge and should not question some things Luke does, most ESP in VotF, because she does not understand them.[/.i] I think I have already admitted that, the particular passage you speak of was not my favorite in VoTF, but sometimes one needs perspective from outside. Like me coming here and speaking to those who dislike a character I am fond of. This has opened my eyes more and helped me to understand the complexities. Some may not feel this way and think of only one path, while perhaps others now see things a different way. I may not be right on everything I state, but the perspective brought forth may help some. Mara was not right with all of her statements either, but perhaps some were well worth being said Well what do ya say J_S wanna dance with me to? OWLC Edit: [i]It was just tacked on to put some sort of stability or closeness to a very shaky relationship. I gotta disagree with you there. Force bonds were not started with Mara and Luke. They were discussed with Jaina and Jacen. Even into Leia and Luke in ESB were bonds looked at. They are there and to deny that is to deny something which has been around for a bit in the EU and even the movies. Now when it comes to why its not between anyone else, are you sure its not between anyone else? Has it ever been mentioned Kam and Tionne lack this bond? Or any other jedi couple. Anakin and Tahiri were mentioned as being two halves of one whole (that fluffy dog Ikirit even tells em they are more powerful together than apart) So we know others have this bond. With Mirrax and Corran or Leia and Han there is a bond, but it does differ since one person in the couple lacks a connection to the force. Perhaps if we were to ask Del Rey they would consider more discussions on this subject when dealing with couples who are both force sensative. -----signature----- My Obi Wan Fic: http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=10511390&replies=6 My Second Obi Wan Fic: http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=11038698&replies=0

	Sure, OWLC, a short spin around the thread. ...but at the same time remember what the flanneled God put forth a long time ago. He let us know that this universe of his is very much built on points of view. To Mara sacrificing her freedom and independence is very much a huge sacrifice. True, SW is made up of points of view. Still, I believe that giving up a measure of freedom is not a sacrifice. We don't live in a totally free society, and therefore can't be completely autonomous. I can't just wake up tomorrow and say to all the people in my neighborhood, "Hey, these next six blocks are now Suzuran land now, I'm the new supreme ruler, bow before my greatness!!!!!!" (kinda think of it, that'd be kinda cool. ) It stands to reason, that though we're in the GFFA, rules apply. Look at the Senate, and how the creation of an army for the Republic is such a heated issue. What I'm getting at here, is that personal freedom is relative, and is also restricted by outside influences. Mara, by making the loss of a little personal freedom (the right to gallavant around the galaxy when the mood suits) isn't making a sacrifice. It's like crashing your car or something. Now, if that car was vital for you to live (ie, it provided you with air to breathe), then it would mean something. She and Luke didn't need the ship. There was one on orbit around the planet, if I recall correctly. Yes, she did a preemptive strike. That's good. But it's still not a sacrifice to me. Did that make any sense? Plus not everyone can make this ultimate sacrifice. There are only so many fathers who need redemption and Emperors to throw into power cores. LOL. I agree with that.They don't exactly grow on trees. Still, Mara's sacrifice has to have some depth. THIS is what I hate about the whole thing. If she truly wanted to be a Jedi, she would have willingly sacrificed her life when they were battling the droids in that room in the end of the book. Her thoughts during that scene are defeatist. By this time, she has already been "redeemed". If she's truly a Jedi, she would have trusted in the Force and given up her life. Not gladly, of course, but with a sense of calm purpose. As Luke did in ROTJ, when he told Palpy he would never turn. "You've failed, your Highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me." Or Ben, in ANH, when he looked to Luke then to Vader and smiled. As Jedi, they believed in the Force, as Mara should have. There is no death, there is only the Force. Had she truly been a Jedi, she would have remembered this, and not been convinced that it was all or nothing. Jedi don't throw their lives away for a reason. They give them for a reason. We've seen this many times in the movies. By agreeing to commit to being a Jedi, Mara should have exercised that tenet. She didn't. Therefore, she isn't really a Jedi to me, let alone a Jedi Master. -----signature----- FIGS Suzaé, Handmaiden of the Crest Su is like, the Den Mother of Perv -- Etessie For My Soul http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=9409845&replies=0 COMPLETE 5/26 ...as shadows claim my light.

	Groove with me J_S True, SW is made up of points of view. Still, I believe that giving up a measure of freedom is not a sacrifice. We don't live in a totally free society, and therefore can't be completely autonomous. I can't just wake up tomorrow and say to all the people in my neighborhood, "Hey, these next six blocks are now Suzuran land now, I'm the new supreme ruler, bow before my greatness!!!!!!" (kinda think of it, that'd be kinda cool. ) Alas we also can't move things with our minds. Make weapons which shoot a meter of light out which can cut almost anything. I agree no one is ever truly free, but independence and true freedom are different. Sometimes freedom to some is not having to worry about anyone but themselves(kinda like Mara) where to others freedom is having the choice to give all for one cause no matter what. It differs for us all and so we can not define freedom for others only for ourselves. Mara, by making the loss of a little personal freedom (the right to gallavant around the galaxy when the mood suits) isn't making a sacrifice. It made perfect sense. But the ship was not just to gallavant around the galaxy. The ship was so that she could stay away from others. Be away from others. Live life where she did not need to have others dictate things to her. It has many meanings which can be looked upon many ways. LOL. I agree with that.They don't exactly grow on trees. Still, Mara's sacrifice has to have some depth. THIS is what I hate about the whole thing.

By this time, she has already been "redeemed". If she's truly a Jedi, she would have trusted in the Force and given up her life. Not gladly, of course, but with a sense of calm purpose. But she was about to give up her life for Luke. Luke was the one who stopped her. Luke was the one who showed her it was not needed. Mara was ready to give up her life to give Luke his. Why is it you think Mara was willing to throw her life away compared to sacrificing her life for Luke during that battle?

	EDIT: Um let's make that more readable. A sacrifice to me, is an opportunity for the person making the sacrifice that will never come again. It's like quitting smoking. It's a sacrifice of impermanence. You can start smoking again tomorrow. No one will flinch. Mara could up and leave at any time. Not that much time has passed, either. She was sick for two years out of seven. Let's look at other people: Anakin Skywalker stopped living. He would not see another day. He made a choice. He couldn't stand living that other day with his child dead. So he gave his life. It was a sacrifice. Leia sacrificed having a peaceful happy home to do a job that aged her, and which she inherited more or less. She didn't want the job. She still did largely because she was the only one who could. Han has stuck around for years because he loves Leia, or he'd be gone. Wedge never stops fighting. These are people that have given something profound, or literally decades of their lives. Decades. Nonstop fighting war and stress, and Mara knew them for almost as long, but preferred to traipse around the galaxy, having fun, whatever she did. Nothing wrong with that, but don't lecture the Master when you do that. She hasn't earned equal priveledge regardless of who she is married to. You can marry someone with status, but that doesn't mean you have it. (Example: It's like being married to someone who gets an Oscar Award. You don't have one too, because you're married to the winner. Mara strikes me thinking she has on "Oscar" too, because Luke does.) Luke? Has he done anything selfish in his life? The only reason I don't don't dislike him right now (despite being a shell of the person he was before the NJO) is because he never took any pleasures for himself. I think he deserves better than Mara, tho. That is MHO. Mara has a lot of work to do before she should consider herself an equal. Oh, that's right, she already does. Okay, before I do. Well, I'm calling it a night. Thanks for all the warm welcomes back, you guys. JS and JA and Sreya. Good night. -----signature----- It's been an experience. 8000, and done!

Obi_Wans_love_child Registered: Aug '01	Date Posted: 9/17/02 10:10pm Subject: RE: Mara Jade Hater Club
	So seven years is not a lot of time? And she did get sick escorting someone to a conference. Now I do not consider Mara as someone who has sacrificed as much as Han, Leia, Luke, or many others in the EU, but like you said she has only had 7 years. And during those 2 years she still did things. Mentored Jaina. Fought the good fight. She has given herself, even if its not the same as others. Sacrifice comes in many forms my friend. Most likely Mara has a lot of life yet to live so who knows what may happen in the long run.

	And the boogy goes on. Alas we also can't move things with our minds. Make weapons which shoot a meter of light out which can cut almost anything. Not gonna argue with that, although that illusionist who bends spoons (Yuri Geller, I think), would disagree with you. Sometimes freedom to some is not having to worry about anyone but themselves(kinda like Mara) where to others freedom is having the choice to give all for one cause no matter what. It differs for us all and so we can not define freedom for others only for ourselves. It's true, we can't define those qualities for everyone. Still, Mara's choice of freedom is... well, selfish. One definition of being indepent, according to the American Heritage Dictionary, is Free from the influence, guidance, or control of others Why bring that up now? Mara knows of the Force and the Jedi. Giving is one of the silent pillars in the Jedi creed; giving to others, whether it's knowledge, guidance of the Force, or help (physical or spiritual). By cutting herself off from others, Mara turned her back on those things. She wanted no responsibility for that, for other beings. All of a sudden, when she crashes her ship, she regains that ability, to care for others? I shake my head at this, because I don't believe it for one minute. You can argue that because she had Palpy as a mentor that giving wasn't in her nature. I don't buy that. Even the most terrible of despots know how to give. To bring a real life parallel, Hitler was evil, but he loved dogs, and he pleased and loved a mistress, whom he later married. Those he cared for he gave better positions, such as one woman, the wife of one of his Commanders. I can't recall her name, but he admired her and gave her much time and brownie points. Palpy wasn't born evil. He didn't take his first breath after he was born and look at the nurse and say "Okay, I'm gonna kill you in a few years cause I'm gonna be Supreme Chancellor." He gave, in his life. We don't really see this in the movies, but human nature is human nature. The ship was so that she could stay away from others. Be away from others. Which proves my point. An essential fact of being a Jedi is to be at one with the Force. How can you learn how to do that if you're running away from that which is essential? By her fleeing human contact, she was denying the Force itself. Midichlorians live in everyone in the GFFA, and by avoiding others, she isolated herself from the beauty of the Force, and the essence of being a Jedi. Live life where she did not to have others dictate things to her. Whom, may I ask, would do that? No one was bossing her around. Luke wasn't ordering her to stay at Yavin. Karrde never chained her to his organization. She ran away because she wanted to, because she didn't want to deal with anyone challenging her in anything. Yeah, you can say that Palpy left her with a deep seated fear of authority (she even says so, or someone does, I forget), but still, if she was so paranoid about being bossed around, she would have left Karrde, gone to some dinky planet and become a hermit. Ben pulled through okay, and look what he accomplished. Her refusal to connect with anyone was pure selfishness. Not a trait worthy of anyone claiming to be a Jedi. -----signature----- FIGS Suzaé, Handmaiden of the Crest Su is like, the Den Mother of Perv -- Etessie For My Soul http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=9409845&replies=0 COMPLETE 5/26 ...as shadows claim my light.

	True, OWLC. I think in VotF, instead of making Mara look compatable with Luke, she started off on the wrong foot by looking arrogant. She does have to do more in my eyes before she cops that attitude. It's funny on someone who's really good. It's not amusing on someone who has a long way to go. If Leia had told Luke all that stuff, I would be GO Leia! Tell it! Because she has so much good experience and had proven herself so many times by then. Mara comes out of nowhere saying this stuf. Her and Luke were vitually strangers before that. Acquaintences. Circled around each other, yeah but, she didn't know him well enough. And had no right to throw failed relationships in his face, and soon as Luke mentions HER relationships, then subject closed, wall back up. That's not exactly open and fair. Is it? Timothy Zahn should written that whole scene better. He did a bad job and it set-up most of the angst that caused this thread to spring up. Mara was not committed to the Jedi way at all. Then in five minutes she says stuff like 'I'm a Jedi now." Or, "We're Jedi, that isn't our function.." To LUKE. Well, thank you! Had no idea! All I can say is: I wish I could do that. I'd tell my boss, "I'm an executive now, so let's clean this place up a bit shall we?" Guess what would happen to me? Well, seven years isn't a lot when you're old. It goes by like nothing. Rather irritating really.......Seems like '95 was just yesterday. Um, JS, you double posted, sugar. -----signature----- It's been an experience. 8000, and done!
