    Wow... TJF, first of all, that was an AMAZING ending. A perfect epilogue to a perfect story... :) Checkmate, Onyx has got to be one of my favorite lines in this.

    Second of all, I am SO SO SO sorry I missed it!!! And your birthday!! Happy belated birthday!! :_| :_| :_|

    Third of all, 06: Male OC/RC Corps. Oh, and the conversion. it's been a wild ride... It has indeed. This story, probably more so than any other on the boards, made me the 06 that I am. ;) It's where I got converted, where I met Mel and KS, where I started the Male OC/RC Corps, where I got inducted into the TJF Goddess cult, and where I started my long descent into a true fanficcer from my previous proficcer stage. I just wanted to say thank you, TJF. Without you, I have no idea where I'd be. :)

    Fourth of all, this has got to be my favorite story of all time. You nailed all of their characterizations so perfectly they came to life. Jaina, Onyx, and Sanar, not to mention Zekk and Kyp, all of them were amazing. My goal for Winter Break is to go back through and reread the entire thing, start to finish, with dips into side conversations along the way. It's gonna be great... :p :D And I promise I'll fill out the survey once I refresh my memory. I can answer one of those questions right now, though. Guess which one... :p

    12. Who would you like to see show up in "Caught In the Rain" (feel free to hand in a long list ;))
    Note: OC's from my other fics - such as Tiran Lee-droy, Garik Klamath, Aarylia, members of the Klis family - are definitely on the options list ;)


    RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK!!!!!! [face_love] [face_love] [face_love] [face_love] [face_love]

    Surprised? :p


    Lastly, the sequel looks amazing, and the trailer gave me goosebumps. It's going to be one hell of a ride, and I promise I'll be there every step of the way. :) I wouldn't miss it for the world.

    now I really need CitR!
    -gave me goosebumps, too! In all sincerity, I swear!

    One word: TORMENT!!! :(
    Two words: MORE SOON!!!!! {emphasis on SOON [face=pleading]}

    not yet [face_devil] maybe in the feburary....after exams i might feel like celebrating, after all :D [face_mischief]

    06: welcome back :) aGAIN 8-}

    [face_blush] [voice_shy]thanks 06...[/voice]

    This story, probably more so than any other on the boards, made me the 06 that I am.

I just wanted to say thank you, TJF. Without you, I have no idea where I'd be.

    yay :D i made a difference! *does a little dance*

    My goal for Winter Break is to go back through and reread the entire thing, start to finish, with dips into side conversations along the way.

    :cool: but i was actually considering reposting it, since i play on some smaller details in the sequel....not to mention that the obvious transformation sanar's character underwent is annoying me :p

    RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK RIK!!!!!!

    Surprised?


    not really 8-}

    JR: How could you do this, TJF???

    hm....pretty easily. i was inspired while brushing my teeth. i typed. i copy/pasted and posted [face_mischief]

    Two words: MORE SOON!!!!!

    i'm thinking that i'll start it up in february...but don't hold me to that. we'll see how my muse is feeling; sept/oct/nov/dec are her best times. summer is the vignette/new fics time. the spring time is, uh....well, yeah.

    ------------


    okay, on a happier note (*still sniffling a little from Jaid's news*) RotJ has been nominated for "Best Novel" and "Best Overall Story of the Winter" (what's the difference between the two, btw, other than the cutoff date? ?[face_plain]). to add to my happiness (or, rather, to sanar's triumph :p) Sanar has been nominated for "Best Original Character in Leading Role", and I managed to get into the "Best Author" category. Thanks soooo much for the noms, guys! :D [face_blush]

    which leads me to a little problem :p i'm horribly indecisive and while i managed to get one of the exerts picked, i'm torn between the other ones...so i'm leaving it up to you (pleading_face).


    here's the ones i'm twiddling my thumbs over, but let me know if you think of a better one :D










    "Return of the Jedi" for Best Novel:


    "Best Novel" Exerts:


    Sanar watched, frozen, as Solo's body - almost identical to her own, but younger - lost all strength, and the Jedi's head lolled back in death. Desperate and unwilling to see someone so young - younger even than Clayra - die, Sanar reached out and grabbed Jaina's fading soul, and held on for all her worth.

    It wouldn't last long, she knew, especially since the body had willed itself to die (kriffing heroes - always have to sacrifice everything to make sure it'll work!) but maybe? She stole Solo's limp body from Zekk's unresisting, stunned arms and held it close, shutting her eyes, the soul-deep exhaustion coming upon her already.

    I need your help, Solo. Grab on, and keep holding on. Please?if you go, I go. It's that simple - and I'm not a hero, Solo; I am not dying for you!

    Sanar took a deep breath, and began to form a bond with the Jedi.

    ~*~*~

    Zekk blinked at Jaina's lifeless form in shock and grief. Nononononono? She couldn't be dead, not after everything? It would be cruel of the Force to steal her just when he escaped - just when they were so close?

    He was barely aware of someone taking Jaina's - corpse - from him. He didn't resist. Though he wanted to hold her forever, he knew it didn't matter now. Nothing did. It doesn't matter anymore. For the first time since his parents' deaths, Zekk wanted to literally run away and lock himself up in his room and find some way to forget.

    You've run too much already, Zekk.

    His hand dropped and clunked on a metal cylinder. His tear-filled eyes found Onyx's lightsaber. For a moment, he only stared, unable to believe that such a small thing could have destroyed so much.

    For power, Zekk had turned his back on the Solo twins' friendship and beliefs, Peckhum's respect, control over his own existence, and, now and worst of all, Jaina's life.

    But it can fix just as much, he thought savagely, as if his words could will it to be so. He grabbed and ignited the blade, just as Brakiss came back for more. Sanar started at the snap-hiss, but slumped back over Jaina's form just as quickly. Zekk ignored her.

    It was time to return Brakiss' treatment of his Darkest Knight's naïve trust.

    ~*~*~

    Sanar thought of transferring the bond to Onyx - or whoever he had transformed into - but the briefest mind touch opened her to a raw, savage grief and hatred that the on-again-off-again seer knew Solo wouldn't survive.

    So she lived with Solo's troubles.

    Sanar could have let go - should have, even, considering how quickly her strength was waning - but instead she anchored Solo's life force to her own, and opened her mind, taking Solo deeper and deeper - the girl's only hope of survival.

    As she saw everything Solo had lived, fought and died for, she knew Solo could see the same for her

    *completely and passionately hates how she always seems to miss gossip, etc* :_|

    And... I think you should send in one of your angsty vigs or something for Best Author.

    thanks :D

    surprisingly, there aren't that many...but there are enough to bring confusion :p which one should i use? SoaC? OoB? Childhood Monster was fun to write, but i'm not sure if that's exactly angsty...just sanar hating the air "durron" breathes, and then coming to an odd epiphany at the end :p...

    Jaid: USE "HELPLESS" GODDESS!! USE THE MOST WONDERFULEST FIC EVER!!! USE IT!!

    you know, i'm still a little dazed by how well that did... *shakes head* Helpless is kinda long though, Jaid...

    I thought you knew...

    sad fact i've my existance: i NEVER know. really. my best friend was dating some guy, and i only found after oh...say...a month or two, when everyone in the school other than me knew [face_plain]

    Jo's known since, well, forever.... I try not to think/talk about it much....

    i didn't hear anything about it...you probably told her on AIM, didn't you? :(

    I won't be able to get to anything on the internet!!!!

    Sanar: *steps on the back of Durron's knee* Get off the floor you fool!!

    ALMIGHTY-OMIPOTENT-AUTHOR: *slaps Sanar* Behave! You'll have to marry Kyp!!

    Sanar: HELP!!!

    Kyp: MWHAHAHAH!! I WILL RULE THE WORLD!! MWAHAHAH!! I WILL RULE!!!

    Sanar: eh'?? o_______O;;

    Kyp: You're the Queen of the World - so if I marry you, I can take over the world and knock you out of power... *cackles*

    ALMIGHTY-OMINPOTENT-AUTHOR: *slaps Kyp* Stop that!! That's TJF's job! Bad boy!!

    Kyp: *holds cheek in one hand* OWIE!!! *runs to KS* Mommy!!! the Author hit me!! :_|

    Jaina: O.O HELL NO!!!! *hides behind Zekkie*

    Zekkie: *strikes heroic pose* I shall defend you Jaina-OW!!

    Best novel would be excerpt one.
    Best OC would be excerpt one as well.
    And I agree, use Helpless.

    Goes over to ghostly Jacen Dude, take over my body. That way we'll both get kisses from Tenel Ka!

    Sorry I haven't gotten to the clips sooner!!! [face_blush]

    I like the first clip for Best Novel, and
    the second clip for Best Original Character in a Leading Role. :D
    {btw, that clip made me feel really angry at the male gender! 'Women should be helpless and frail and serve the men'--urgh! The nerve! :mad: }
    I have no real clue what you should do for Best Author {I nominated you for that!!! :D }, but angst would be the best idea- you are real good at it!

    Agent_Jaid- You're leaving until May?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    Third world country? :p No internet? :eek: Oh my...
    {Funny little story thing-a-mabob you created there! :p ;) }

    SpikeLead- You get out the 23rd? Hmmm...so do I! :D

    Ha, ha, I had this funny experience today! It is my friend's {I'll call her 'Ab' for code ;) } birthday tomorrow, and my other friend {'Jo'} and I were heading to the office to ask them to announce it over the pa system and surprise her. Well, waddya know, Ab was at the office!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D Ab knew exactly what we were trying to do, and I had to steer her out of the room while she was shouting, "No! Don't announce it!!!"!!!!!! [face_laugh] It was wicked funny, for me and Jo. And I gave her presents and stuff. She eventually thanked me and Jo for being so thoughtful.

    Sorry, a little personal ramble there...
    I just can't get that image out of my head- it was hilarious!!! [face_laugh]

    :D [face_blush]

    So, anyway.
    Congrats on all the noms, TJF! ;)
    You earned them!

    only you or Kyp would call Sanar "Queen of the World" :p

    Jaid.... [face_laugh] you're something else :p

    hm...i should do one of those sometimes :D [face_mischief]

    Striker: Goes over to ghostly Jacen Dude, take over my body. That way we'll both get kisses from Tenel Ka!

    [face_laugh]

    SpikeLead: aw...too bad :( but that means you return later in january, right?

    Jaina_Rocks: {btw, that clip made me feel really angry at the male gender! 'Women should be helpless and frail and serve the men'--urgh! The nerve!}

    yes, i know...writing about sanar's planet has really made me appreciate equal rights [face_plain]

    angst would be the best idea- you are real good at it!

    well, okay, but i write so much of it, it's kinda hard to pick... :(
