 Lanna, there's fabled LP©™ points* on offer for that poem!
*Please note these points are useless in almost every capacity. They're like having Imperial credits on an Alliance planet.

There once was a user named Plunder,
Who did make a serious blunder.
He wrote about crime,
And in a short time,
A pile of fics he was under.

No, no no, Onoto, ALL ryhme words.
Meaning, if you wanted to rhyme Luton_Plunder,
maybe with someone from down under,
but you need a real user name and so
you're out of the poety game, Onoto.

If I could think of something that rhymes with MsLanna besides banana, I'd write a witty poem in response.

I don't think this is the thread to battle and dis each other poetry style anyway, onoto.
I don't think there IS such a thread. 
Banana, hmm. 
If you slurr it a little everything ending on '-er' might do.

You guys amaze me
Apparently seedy siders do rhyme, and in typical seedy fashion they have rhyme battles Somewhere, Boba Fett is crying at what has become of his kind.
So I say to Onoto,
and to you MsLanna:
Remember that rhyming,
is always bad karma. 
MamaVader (if I might call you that ), welcome to the Seedy Side. Where you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and wordsmithery!

I made up a silly limerick to tease ol' Futon,
But soon I found that my advantage was gone.
MsLanna responsded and whittled me down to my proper size,
And a suitable response I could not devise
So I am beaten; you are the victor, MsLanna.
Now I shall split, just like a banana.

I cannot believe it has come to this
the Seedy Siders do battle and dis
each other in very polished rhyme
while in the corner Fett is cryin'
but with Onoto like a banana split
I think there's no fun left in it. 
...and now for something completely different. I think we had a topic somewhere.
*goes looking for topic*

I think Face was gonna come up with something new and big... something that's hopefully farthest away from rhymes possible.

The_Face actually referred me to this thread
hopefully I'll put some life in it when you all think it's dead.
I've recently explored hard-boiled fiction
due to some creative prediliction
unfortuntately no one had commented so far
you can find it posted here, The Seventh Star
Whew! That was an effort all that rhyming, anyone else going to come in and talk about hard-boiled? Have you guys set up like PI agencies in SW with your OCs? How did you go about it?

You people are all quite mad.
Welcome to the Seedy Side, Katana_Geldar! Good question, let's discuss it.
"It's a Bitter Little World"
Hard-boiled noir and detective mysteries are firmly within the Seedy Side scope. Raymond Chandler may not have written any EU novels, but this is fanfiction, so we can do it for him.
What's the place of the P.I. in the underworld and in the GFFA? How do you reconcile the classic "hard-boiled" tone with the Star Wars setting? What are some challenges, advantages, and strategies for writing in that style? These are all just to get your mind going, please also address Katana's specific questions and ask some of your own. 
I'll be back with my contribution but others can start if they'd like. P- please?
EDIT: Oh, also, if you'd like to discuss detective fiction further, there's a good thread here talking about it right now.

I'll get some thoughts together, if somebody tells me what P.I is. 
In general, I'm not a fan of detective stories, and what exactly does 'hard-boiled' refer to? The tone? The worldview behind it? The way the things in the story work? Is it an attitude?
