It's not a delay going to see ROTS a few times, it's a very important research trip. There can never be enough researching while working on a fic. *attempts to look serious as that's the excuse she's been giving to folks*

Oh... wow. I've just read the entirety of this over the last 24 hours...

Nothing much more to say than... wow. Excellent story you have here... I too agree with what was said earlier in this thread... I would pay to read this!

I love your portrayal of Obi-Wan... the everpresent fatigue and strain of a failing order on his shoulders adds a unique twist. Not to mention the padawan who (if possible) is even more rule concious then he was! grin

Atel is a great OC. I was wary of her at first, but I'm really liking the subtle changes in her pysche.

The interaction between Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon is phenomenal. And so delicately writtten.

Brilliant! Snaps for the author.

Vampi Had to do another road trip to see ROTS - research you know....LOL. Character research. grin

sheleigh Thanks so much for that. I have been a very bad author though. I'm quite slow at writing and with real life being so.... real, I haven't updated this in quite some time. I am working on it now though so it hasn't been forgotten.

Glad you enjoyed it. I especially like writing Atel. She's a piece of work but I wanted her to be a real character, not just someone to be Obi-Wan's background. So she's not perfect but she's trying to do her very best.

Ah, the interaction with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon. I try really hard to get that just right. Sometimes Obi gets away from me but I'm pretty comfortable with Qui-Gon (even when he's fighting me on the plot).

Thanks for commenting. I appreciate it!

Hope your move went smoothly!

Take your time, I can be patient a while longer. grin And of course, seeing RotS is important for research. tongue

I was just reading VaderLVR64's "Far from Home" and it made me wonder about something in this story--did any of the Jedi who were released from the Order ever go searching for their families? Or perhaps meet them on accident?

Jedi_Tigris Thanks for your understanding and patience. blush

katiedidnt I answered your question by PM but I think that others might be interested as well. Besides, plot holes need to be plugged. tongue
Jedi in general don't think of their biological families as such. Rather the Jedi are their family. However, when they are ejected without cause and left homeless and family-poor, it would seem a good idea to seek out their own kind. Trouble is that the Jedi Archives holds that information and it is quite difficult to get it without prior approval. I can't see the current Jedi Council doing anything but denying access to the Archives to dismissed Jedi - they want nothing to do with the discards and it is proprietary knowledge after all (also good to use for manipulation if they do need something later from the ex-Jedi). They may be able to find the information by other means but it would be much harder to do. Plus the former Jedi are being watched for the first 6 months and I don't think they would want to have innocents subjected to that kind of scrutiny. After 6 months, I could see them trying to go back to the family but at that time, they are at their most vulnerable and Maul and other hunters are picking them off..

But some did make it back. Does that make sense? wink


Princess_A Yes, they should fall back if they haven't been updated in so long! Bad Diane, bad bad bad... sad Luckily I do have a post for tomorrow! It seems my writer's block/RL deathgrip angry has lessened slightly and I was able to write enough for a post. Plus the muse seems to be with me and I've written a bit more for the next post. I only hope that it stays with me.

Thanks for asking.... blush

Knystar You should have read it already. I sent it this morning by email! Silly woman. tongue

Layren You are so sweet to say so. How do I do it? Beats me! But I usually have to fight to get the words on the page. I don't know if that's talent tongue or sheer stubborness! LOL. But thanks.
