Mmmmmmmmmm, oh, and something else I am to be sure quite liking about him then - the singular and quite satisfying fact of just how....wonderfully and openly fearless and steadily, imperturably confident and, oh, just completely *cool* and unflappable and generally unfazed he actually is even when confronted with the worst sort of treachery and threat and, as in this case in particular, well, also the most vile and vicious and altogether ugly brand of bullying and intimidation at that, courtesy of one thoroughly nasty and vindictive, greedy and murderous twisted little cheat of a podracing Dug in particular, then, and of course here I'm specifically thinking of just how and even why it is that Anakin actually stands up to him, shows absolutely no fear with him, in front of him, and instead seems quite ready, able, eager and willing to take him on pretty much right on the spot, to look him right in the eye, and get right in his face like that....
And thus, in essence, I think he's also saying - that's it, I don't care, you can try to threaten me and talk tough all you like, because I really don't care and you don't scare me and you will *not* be getting the best of me so easily....I know just how to deal with the likes of you, I know for a fact what a bully and treacherous liar and a *cheat* you really are but I won't let that stop me....and I am not afraid, and you have just *no* idea who it is you're actually messing with here, but trust me when I say you're going to find out.... And, hey, so indeed Sebulba did, for the record, and soon enough at that, enough so that he was probably left rueing the day that he'd ever crossed paths, goaded or tangled with a talented and audacious and breathlessly daring, strong-willed stubborn, defeated and completely fearless young "slave boy" who was of course rather *far* more than that anyway....
Something Sebulba found out quite to his detriment, though come to think of it at least *he* didn't end up having to sacrifice a limb or three before he learned the lesson the hard way....no less a resounding defeat for him and quite the deserved, long-time-coming humiliation for him, though, I'd wager
*triumphal expression* Because slave or no, after all, young or otherwise....Anakin, then, I'm thinking really is still plenty strong and stalwart and calmly, steadily, brave enough to stand up for himself in this case, and for others too....and so he really won't be letting Sebulba best him, or throw him off-stride, put him at all ill-at-ease or even make him the slightest bit nervous or afraid....
That, indeed, even an avowed cheat and fiend and twisted little sycophant, and general warped deviant like Sebulba, even with all that he's capable of and the heinous depths and awful brute extremes he's obviously gone to, yet there are some things even he can't ever quite do....and managing to ever cow Anakin or put any sort of fear into his heart or throw him at all off his game is definitely one of those things. In other words, ye-es....not so much likely to happen, then, clearly.
And so when Anakin does come up against him like that, and shows well enough right on the spot just what it is to be truly fearless and unfazed, to have nerve, to be daring and sharp, perceptive and keen, to be steady and steeled and to hold his ground no matter what he came up against, even when he's being actively and openly threatened.... Heck, even that doesn't exactly give him pause and it's certainly not enough to ever set him back or have him shying away....
And it probably never would be either, come to think of it, at least if it was just Sebulba he had to deal with, you see, if that's as bad or imposing or potentially dire as things ever really got then maybe he didn't have so much to worry about after all....no big deal, nothing at all he couldn't handle and surmount, then, clearly....if that murderous-minded and tricksy, twistedly cunning and devious little beast was as bad a threat and as big an "imposing" and formidable danger as it ever got, anyway.... And one who, like most bullies, really also was a coward at heart and one who obviously didn't know quite what to do or really what to make of it when he was openly and up-front challenged like that, and maybe especially that it was even by someone who....supposedly shouldn't *dare* to, someone who should've been cowed and broken, defeated enough already, a "mere slave" and just a little human boy at that....
Yet here, of course, it was this slave boy who was so boldly and fearlessly challenging him, too, time and time again standing up to him and showing ne'er the slightest whicker of fear or doubt or hesitation in taking Sebulba on like that and openly, honestly and forthrightly challenging him plain as day for everyone to see, so that no one else could ever doubt that there was *someone*, even one being on that whole planet, anyway, who actually would gladly and willingly stand up to a bully, cheat, deceiver and killer and never back down, and never be in the least bit cowed or fearful either....by doing even that much, then.... Which was also probably just what Sebulba didn't expect or didn't even know quite how to deal with, by the way, because maybe a "slave boy" was someone who would normally be afraid of the likes of Sebulba, or cower in nervousness and dread away from him....
Maybe any other would be easy enough to intimidate, then, but he couldn't ever manage to do that to *Anakin*, because the latter was obviously far *better* than that anyway.... And doubtless that only drove Sebulba fair 'round the bend too, I'd wager, it had to make him simply *crazy* actually, that he couldn't strike fear into Anakin's heart or throw him off in any way, and in fact that any such attempts only seemed to make Anakin even more formidable and impressive and enough of a foe to be reckoned with and taken *very* seriously....in other words, then, maybe the harder Sebulba tried to make Anakin afraid, to crush him, bring him down, the higher Anakin soared and the faster and farther he flew, basically, and thus the more brave and defiant and fierce he truly was....and the harder he'd be to beat.
And what's more, well, I daresay even that it....wouldn't exactly surprise me, then, if Anakin for his part did maybe take some measure of glee and satisfaction in knowing that it was his own total lack of fear or nervousness which was driving Sebulba *insane* and completely confounding 'im....just, I suspect, for the sheer strange pleasure and quiet triumph which comes from knowing that he's having ju-ust the intended effect, and driving his opponent completely batty, and of course only getting to Sebulba at least, really getting aggravatingly under his skin, *far* more than Sebulba ever could do to *him* in return....if you know what I mean.
And ohhhhhh, mmmmmm, I'd wager too that in so doing, Anakin did prove quite nicely just what he actually was made of inside, what sterner and stronger stuff made of him the fearless and feckful and daring young soul who'd already take on all comers and confront really any danger, admitted risk or challenge thrown his way....
And, moreover, he was also one who clearly wouldn't rest or be at all stymied until he had his own way and got what he wanted and actually was....victorious, triumphal, unquenched and unquashed, I'm guessing. And even - or perhaps especially
- the likes of Sebulba, then, so treacherous and deceitful and full of murderous tricks and nasty little surprises, couldn't ever stand in his way or give him much pause either. Even that much could never best *him*, or stand in his way overlong....evidently.
*exuberant, enthused expression*

RE: "The Most Powerful Jedi Ever" - The Official Anakin Skywalker Fanclub
Mmmmmm, you know, just what a vibrant and brilliant, rather vividly energetic and positively voraciously enthusiastic, high-spirited par excellence and wonderfully, exuberantly and healthily, zestfully lively sort of firebrand soul is he, then, and no mistake, and certainly - well, hey, just how fervently and hopefully much he's always yearned and worked, too, and strived and fought and dreamed so hard and so reek-like head-on and directly stubbornly just to be free, to be able to taste and feel it and simply to be so well able to gladly and triumphantly revel in it, in whatever fashion it comes to him....and it's not even just the physical freedom we're talking about here, strictly speaking, but of course also the critical freedom to dream his own great and tremendous, inspiring, hopeful and encouraging dreams....
And to yearn for his own far-reaching and hithertofore unfathomable, wonderful and awesome and perfectly *possible* destiny besides, the one laid out before him in all its bright colour and splendid promise, and thus the one he first and foremost made the choice, of his own *free will*, to pursue and strive towards.... The freedom to do as ever he might want with *his* own existence, then, when it comes to truly and deeply living it, and loving *in* it, natch....it really is that essential part and parcel of just what it means to be a truly free being and thus beholden to no one else, gifted with choice and enjoying one's own opportunities and desires as ever one might like, too....emotionally, mentally, psychologically....even physically, at that.
And, heck, for just so long was Anakin denied that chance too, that inborn Force-given *right*, actually, to have his own personal destiny and follow his own dreams, strive for his own great future and make his own triumphs, and thus fly however far and fast he might ever care to, and explore places of endless fascination, tremendous mystery and unnameable beauty, however much it might capture his fancy.... This is what actually *wasn't* justly his for so long, it's just what he was gallingly and infuriatingly, insultingly and inhumanely denied instead....due in such large part at the time, I fear, to the insult to his person and the physical violation of it, actually.... Which, to be sure, in this case took the dreadful and quite insidious, treacherous and just plain dehumanizing form of that transmitter which had been implanted somewhere unknown inside him, *somewhere* on his person at any rate, all those years ago....
Just one little sliver of metal and circuitry as it surely would've been, I'm thinking, but even that was enough to keep him yoked and held back for a slave's life of horror, oppression and hardship on Tatooine, then, *all* that time it was with him, lying in wait there inside him and he couldn't ever get it out.... It was something all but impossible to find, anyway, though for that matter I wonder if maybe it would've taken Anakin that much longer to do so anyways, to actually devise some way to find that nasty little and potentially very messily lethal tracking device, and from there come up with some way to deactivate it, get it out, otherwise just be *rid* of it, once and for all....
Maybe, ye-es, 'twouldn't have been much longer or taken much more zealous effort on his part before he *did* pick up on and then hopefully do away with that awful and downright heinous little leash-and-collar-and-fetter of a transmitter which had been placed there in *his* own body, somewhere beneath *his* own skin and muscle, flesh and tissue and bone.... (and, oh, how he'd have undoubtedly also crushed the thing under his heel, and thus would be rid of being enslaved by pulverizing the transmitter which symbolized it - and aaaahhhhhh, yes, just how tremendously cathartic and *such* a great relief that would've been for him too, I'm sure, to grab that tiny explosive thing between his fingers, crush it in his grasp, or just shatter it beneath his foot, and in so doing free *himself*....what a release, too....imagine it!) And, of course, it was something also done completely without his consent or approval, *he* certainly didn't have any say in it....
It was something done *to* him, by them, an appalling and totally unforgivable violation of his own personal space and his body especially. And, heck, even in general the whole idea of it is just *repulsive*, sticking a transmitter and *explosive device*, at that into someone - when it's meant to go off and blow them to shreds should they ever try to escape....brrrrrrrr, aye, what an humiliation, and a deadly one at that.... And I'm sure it could only have deeply rankled in him too, knowing that his own body had been violated, used like this, and so that was the reason why he wasn't able to freely and gladly roam as galactically far as ever he'd want to or dream of....no wonder then that he clearly wouldn't meekly stand for it, and so would do everything in his power to find it, get rid of it, and in so doing hopefully well-and-truly also claim his life and destiny for his *own*.... And, also, to among other things be able to roam as far, wide and fast as ever he saw fit....
Oh, alright, not just across the one galaxy, for that matter, but maybe when all was said and done....across fairly dozens and dozens, hundreds maybe, goodness only knows however many....if they were out there for the finding and exploring and the glad and triumphant roaming-through, in other words, then I'm sure he'd be doing just that - going just as far and delving as deep as he liked, plumbing the depths and expanses of all those mysteries and beautiful, intriguing and amazing things, in every way clearly doing just what his heart would be most telling him, then....even though it might take him through a thousand vast, awesome and fathomless galaxies....once he was at long last free and unfettered even by nasty, tricksy little implanted devices, and then at full glorious liberty to do so, I'm guessing.
Dawn. (who does feel that - Anakin roaming far and wide, freely and happily and quite invigoratingly from one galaxy to the next, and then checking out another and still another one after that, no mater how endless and ginormously huge they might be, well....whatever else would one expect of - a *Skywalker*, then....evidently
*chortles*)

*purring deeply, heartily* Mmmmm, well, perhaps it does just naturally come with....let's say being suddenly and quite irresistibly seized with the nigh-overwhelming and almost inexplicable temptation to just....quite thoroughly and attentively and certainly with *all* due care ogle and consider it, then, not only this positively gorgeous masterpiece of a deluxe edition, signed and everything, of "Dressing A Galaxy".... (because oh, just *look* how pretty, for starters-!.... *lovingly, adoringly and tenderly stroking the costumed pretty*) - but, of course, and perhaps first and foremost, those precious, rare and just *beyond*-words treasured and perfect fabric swatches, natch....which certainly makes it one of my true pride and joy "gets" from CIV anyway, and I'm still in sheer fits of ecstatic glee over it every so often, let me tell you.
Although it was, I suppose, admittedly a bit of a challenge - though in a good way
- trying to explain to the gal staffing the counter (who'd probably never heard anything like it before) exactly what I was looking for, and the pure and simple, straightforward and perfectly reasonable and, to me, also completely inarguable fact that....I wanted the deluxe, special edition, and I not only wanted but also simply *needed* the one with the *Anakin* fabric swatches in particular - even just *his* quite ruggedly handsome and strikingly, attention-gettingly-in-just-every-possible-way brazenly distinctive, earthy fine tunics, then....and but that little tantalizing hint of his soft and careworn leather tabard too, which you just *know* would have to carry....well, his very essence about it really, if you will....
For it would certainly hold the very subtly musky and earthen and wonderfully rich and sheerly male scent of him, to be sure, and certainly also the very warmth radiating off his smooth and softened, fresh and ever-so-sweet youthful skin too....I'm rather sure of it, actually, and so who knows but what that's part of the appeal in and of itself....
The simple fact that even something so seemingly small and straightforward, so basic as the clothing he chooses to don and layer upon his rounded, supple-muscle and fit, toned frame, his broad and powerfully-planed, godlike-sculpted and confident chest, his lean and bracing, steady arms, for instance....this too, then, can obviously say much for him and how he approaches things, his way of looking at the world and his place in it, what *he* first and foremost chooses tomake of himself and how, and as *whom*, he would be known....this too, then, is evocative quite simply of *him*....
Which, thus, means it's all I could ever need to know right there, all the incentive required....it evokes him, it's reminiscent of his power and aura, his charm and his look and his wild-warrior and independently, unpredictably and uniquely Heroic appeal....which means, of course, that I am just - *so* there, baby-!....and in turn I suppose it's also only to be expected that I also can't keep my hands off him, then, or really anything evoking him or with that certain especial quality of Anakin-ness, or Anakinly Anakinliciousness about it if you will, for really any length of time. Which, to be sure, I do freely admit and quite happily cop to anyway.
*tee hee* And oh, well, I imagine then there's be little doubt that it's even something so much as what he actually decides to wear on his person - what would maybe be a bit of a shock for somewhat startling for just generally outside the "norm" - or the constrained and restrictive and the overly-suffocating, more like....
Because, hey, clearly Anakin, for his part, has just *never* had any use for that sort o' thing anyway, he just wants nothing to do with an oppressive and freedom-denying and individuality-refusing atmosphere like that and so maybe he just ends up deliberately and willfully setting himself apart really any way he can, however large or subtle and small, stated or otherwise it might be, all the more boldly and out-there undeniably because of it....because he really has *no* intention of ever doing anything so hum-drum, mundane and prosaic as just "blending in" and being all blah and unremarkable and generally just like everyone else, when after all he's really *not* just like them....he's just like - *himself*, really....
He's thoroughly extraordinary and entirely remarkable anyway, and besides, if everything about him....the way in which he holds himself, stands so tall and head-tilted, chin-raised defiant and stubborn and self-possessed like that...or how he makes his vociferous and passionate, hearty feelings and his opinions known, how he so honestly and forthrightly speaks his mind and his naked and vulnerable, open and unashamed heart like that....or certainly even how, for that matter, he's really had a *life* which is quite unlike any other, his own experiences for good or ill weren't perhaps usual or expected, but they still powerfully shaped him and profoundly and visibly molded him, helped make of him the person and thus the uniquely qualified and especially connected Hero and brave, openly compassionate and honestly and expressively feeling and altogether wonderfully *good* warrior and human being he very much *was*, then....
So if he was already all these things anyway, if he already wore them within and so made no secret of them and who he truly, deeply and intrinsically was and what mattered most to him anyway, what he really was all about.... Then, well, suffice it to say, why shouldn't he be just as proudly and strongly and confidently wearing it on the outside too, just as much right out there for everyone to see and pick up on and recognize rightly....what's on the outside so nicely and quite vividly echoing and hearkening back to what blazes so brightly and energetically and passionately within....any way he can distinguish himself, make himself *known* somehow and I think just well-and-truly prove his uniqueness....that he's just not quite like all the others, he's very much his *own* man, with his own priorities, demands, desires, thoughts and tempestuous passions, all....
So he's clearly every right to have that right out there, too, by my reckoning, to have it plain to see so that even just to look at him and the sheer eye-catching and attention-riveting presence he projects, that certain air about him, if you will....we-ell, then, clearly no one could ever be left in any doubt as to just who he is or how greatly and beautifully he's distinguished, how he really is making quite the renowned name and reputation for himself and he only *does* stand so strikingly and grandly apart from all the rest.... And so any way he can prove that, wear that even for himself and thus rest even a bit easier and contented too, I daresay, just knowing that he's conveying it and making his point somehow....any way at all he can manage that, I figure, whether 'tis even in those striking and vividly stylish, statement-making nature of what he chooses to wear....
The earthy, loamy rich, intense and invitingly deep and warm tones he goes for the most, the colours and shades with real *dimension* actually, which have touched his skin, sheathed his bristling muscles and certainly made of him such a bold and powerful figure standing thankfully apart, a flourishing character with dash and panache and a singleminded, independent-hearted and enthusiastically, stallion-like free-spirited person besides....any way in which he can make that kind of dashing and charming and quite compelling statement for himself and the heart and soul which beats beneath his breast, for instance....any way he can make such a formidable and unforgettable impression as *that*....then I imagine he'd be all for it in any case, and he'd most like to have that because he doesn't want to be beholden or held back, fettered by the impression anyone else might have of him....he wants to make his *own* in the world, then....
Clearly, hey, he just wants the name and attitude, the presence and demeanour reputation he has, the person he conveys, himself, to be in every way his *own*....and in this, too, he can accomplish that, he can take real ownership of not only how he's seen but also how he walks through the world and does his proverbial thing....he can truly, deeply do it *his* own way, then, as he likes and what he's most comfortable and assured and confident with, and that's no small feat either, it seems to me....no small one at all....just so long as he's happy and content, soothed, placated and satiated....so long as he's satisfied, then, why....so am I on his behalf, I suppose.
*chuckles gladly*
Dawn.

RE: "The Most Powerful Jedi Ever" - The Official Anakin Skywalker Fanclub
*sighs deeply, profoundly happily* Aaaahhhh, well, just - pardon me a moment here, I suppose, as I do sit here so adoringly and rapturously stroking and savouring, and so gently and tenderly caressing my....rare and precious and simply bang-on perfect and of course hugely treasured MR Anakin ROTS lightsaber, to be sure (indeed, yep, I'm thinking also that clearly I can't keep my hands off him then....um, I mean, *it*....no, wait....
) - because mmmmmm, ohhhhh, just such a magnificent creation as it still strikes me as, truth be told, it still is just *so* very pretty....aaahhhh, yes, look at the shiny and smoothly-polished, chrome-metal and firm, snug-and-secure-and-*ever*-so-comfortable-to-grip Anakin pretty, then, look at how the whole design of it, too - the whole sheer bold and distinctive and unlike-any-other-out-there style of it, for sure....
The obvious little intricacies and subtle but meaningful details he clearly put into it, then, everything that he machined and so carefully and exquisitely and deftly crafted into the design....the dark ridges of the handgrip, a comfy and natural fit against his palms too, I'm guessing, and standing out starkly against the polished-to-a-mirror shine metal, the activation plate within such casual reach of the merest sweep of his capable thumb and obviously meant to be that way, to be sure, as though with the merest flick of a finger, if even that much, he could have that shimmering blade like blue fire right in the very palm of his hand.... All that power, all that deadly beauty and sizzling lethal grace and ferocity, all that prowess and formidable, Force-of-nature unstoppable sheer might and main, right *there* for him, held firm and steady, sure within his grasp, right there at his very fingertips....and maybe it was, for him, basically like an extension of his own body, actually....
Just as much a part of him, perhaps, and something he was so intimately and utterly connected with and knew so very, very acutely well, every particle, every inch, every *atom* of it actually, enough so that it was actually as good as....another limb, almost.... It *had* to be just that way, because he *had* designed it, thought of it, wanted to make it in every way truly, deeply his own....to have it mean something to him personally, and be something he was proud of, and could make it just as he wished, with his own personal touches and flair and comfy stylings, all those little ways in which he could wear it so proudly and brandish it so bravely and daringly, and with it out there and fiercely blazing basically say....here he was, this was him, he was Anakin Skywalker and this was his blade, and here he stood, and let no one forget it, either-!....
And, heck, besides, *he* was the one who'd be bearing and so Heroically, daringly and breathtakingly wielding the thing anyway....*he* was the one who'd be fighting so bravely and death-defyingly, risk-challengingly with it, helping do so much good and saving all those who really did need his help, with it....*he* and he alone had to choose what he wanted to go into the cherished weapon and most valuable possession that no one could ever take away from him, and *he* most of all had to....basically pour so much of his own heart and soul, desires and demands, fierce warrior spirit and steeled bravery and unshakeable, unquaking courage and determination, all his own brazen and brash attitude and his beautiful flair for the dramatic, his singular sense of the individual and the thankfully and eye-catchingly, attention-gettingly unique, too....
*All* of that, I think, went into the making of the weapon that he alone had the right to hold and wield as ever he liked, he put so much of himself into it....which meant he was most of all attuned to it, probably felt like he fought best and was even faster on his feet, sharper with the blade and swifter to react with it, so long as it was his own.
He could convey that in a very meaningful way, I'm guessing, with even what he decided to make of his own weapon....to come up with something that didn't have to hearken back to anyone else's design, or "pay tribute" (!!!) to them or fall back on rule or tradition, but instead something that could help him make such an admirable and worthy name for himself, that's what....something that in itself I think would say *Anakin Skywalker* just as much as ever he himself did, if you know what I mean.
In its smooth and crisp and convention-defying, precise and deadly-intentioned and yet very boldly and starkly beautiful, sharp clear lines, then, and its symmetrical angles and just the generally *very* pleasing-to-the-reverent-and-adoring eyes and demonstrably very strong, practiced, deliberate crafting of a hilt, a blade like this....it stands apart for that, just as he did, distinguished, striking, eye-catching and ruggedly attention-getting, then - very much like its owner, Maker and wielder, to be sure, which after all was probably part and parcel o' the whole point and the definite appeal, even for him, to begin with....to have a design and idea totally unlike anyone else's and to make a real bold and beautiful, striking and grand statement with it - that this is him, what he's all about....real strength and endurance, fortitude and power, deadly speed and beautiful lines and graceful smooth quickness, and boundless free will, and independent thought and unpredictable nerve....
That he too is just as perfectly and carefully, exactingly honed and just as thoroughly and adeptly practiced....as really anything he decides to make with his own two hands, his own will and intention, imagination and attitude, then, just like this....just as much as anything that really can't help but so intensely evoke - the one who made it, came up with the idea, and obviously put so much of himself into it in the first place. And even that much, too, could surely only always, *always* make it a real thing of beauty anyway - well-enough worth it, even "just" for that....for the heart and soul, the vim and vigor, the personality, energy, and simply the fire of the man behind it, anyway...

I suppose, then, that perhaps one can only so earnestly and sincerely, fondly hope that - well, quite simply that....Anakin for his part actually *never* did end up losing or sacrificing that pure sense of joyous and carefree *fun* in him, you know, that love of the exuberant and the high-spirited and the carelessly gleeful, and of course that he could even *play* at all, and also the fact that he could also be so positively and adorably impish and, really, such a roguishly handsome little devil in his own right, with an irrepressible and unquenchable enthusiasm and even quite the love of mischief and sly and marvellously teasing, coy little jokes played, too, I'm guessing when the irresistible opportunity did present itself....
Though again, well, clearly he only does that out of love and affection, he plays the little joke or pulls the sweet and sly littler mischievous stunt with a gleam in his lively teal eyes and those adorable, sweet and delicious and boyishly endearing wee dimples quirking beside his lush-lipped mouth, crinkling up his silky-and-velvety cheeks ju-ust enough anyway, and maybe even with quite the rollicking and uproarious, rich and tigerlike purry, throaty and quite gloriously infectious fit of laughter too.... And really, now, it's not like there'd ever be any resisting the likes of *that* or being unmoved by his efforts and his sense of invigorating and lively fun and merry, intimate deviltry, that lovely feel of the sly and rugged rogue about him, too, if you will....
Mmmmmm, nope, no way at all as I see it to somehow *not* be so completely taken and just totally and gladly won over by him and his sometimes very boldly mischievous ways, his beguiling sense of playfulness and what seems like a certain Cheshire-Cat delightful slyness, too.... Enough so that, hey, if *he's* the one playing the impish and mirthful little joke or being the coy and subtly teasing little scamp, if *he's* the one who obviously cares enough to do it with such love and warmth and, ahem, even intimacy, too, like that.... Well now, it really is only a *good* thing then, coming from him, that's all's I'm saying; and, hey, he could, after all, feel absolutely free and eager to be as playful and coy and roguishly mischief-making with *me* as ever he'd like, to be every bit the adorable rapscallion with such a sense of deviltry and enjoyment in 'im anyway....I, at least, certainly wouldn't stop him, never in the slightest....
In fact, well, you see....this is me, inviting it and *him* with open arms, right here and now, on the spot.
*tee hee* And then, too, it just seems to me that - well, by absolutely *no* means was he ever anything like "all work and no play" either, as though he, *he* especially with his energy, his voracious appetites and his impetuous, demanding, changeable and tumultuous passions, his quite wild heart and free-spirited zeal, his zest for life - could ever be anything like all work and no play in his life, because, well, for starters we all know what *that* tends to make of someone, and honestly, now, if there's one thing and even one thing only that he most assuredly is *not* and really could never be, the one sole and lonely thing that actually might be impossible for him, surely it is to ever be a Dull Boy like that.
Thus, hey, all the more reason why, I'm sure, Anakin would always end up caring just as much about the fun and the gleeful, the carelessly joyous and the mirthful in his life - wherever and however he could get it too, I'd imagine, most any place and anytime he was actually free to do so and could basically cut loose like that, and just have some fun and be all playful, coy and teasing if the chance permitted too, I don't doubt, and so to really just truly, deeply *enjoy* himself as he most of all sees fit, as it actually matters to *him* and obviously does *him* a great deal of good.... That he likes his play, then, just as much as, if not even *more* by far than, his work and the demands I guess it can sometimes make on him (having a well-rounded life, pretty well important, so I hear anyway
)....
Because as fulfilling and greatly satisfying and risk-takingly thrilling, openly challenging and of course *very* much suited to his own especial talents and prodigious, formidable gifts and startling powers as it surely is, the work he actually does, you know, of course what with the artful, deft flying and the gracile and limber saber-fighting and the helping of people, the fixing of things and all.... Still, though, I would wonder if - even as much as all that obviously means to him, how he's fairly born to it and everything in him, his talents and impulses, desires, instincts, all, do so uniquely qualify and suit him for the task of being the Chosen One, the Hero With No Fear and the Warrior of the Infinite....doing such good wherever and however he could, fixing things, being the Hero, helping others and righting all the wrongs of the galaxy....yet maybe on some level he was even more glad and appreciative of the chance to - really *not* always have to be all about the work....
The chance just to cut loose, then, to be carefree and act as though far from any worry and burden, stress, bode and woe....to be impish and gleeful without restraint, to be teasing and coy and to just have some real soul-satisfying *fun* without ever having to answer to anyone else for it....the chance just to enjoy his *play*, too, whatever, wherever and however it might be....and, of course, especially with *whom*....although I think we all do have an inkling, though, of what might be involved there, the sort o' play and carefree, easy fun he'd be most up for, in other words....adorable and sensuous, soft and wonderful romantic meadow-frolicking, for instance or playfully and endearingly showing off with the Force just to make someone else smile, to make them happy and to enjoy it himself in turn, I'm sure....
Mmmmmm, aye, he really *has* had some experience with it, after all, and I'm sure those were fond and dear and delightful, sweet and wistful and warming memories he loved thinking back on, ones which comforted him, soothed his soul, brought a smile to his lips and which always made him feel better, too....ones which also could've only made him yearn for and deeply desire even more of the same. Knowing and loving what it's like, after all, what else could he ever want but that....simply *that*....and it was indeed good, anyway.
Dawn.

Hrmmmm, well now, I must say - that maybe it wouldn't have proven at all surprising if maybe, well....Anakin actually *would* have basically gladly and probably *utmost* gratefully snatched up each and every chance he could get, that in the end he would at least occasionally - because that's just what his freedom-yearning and excitement, enjoyment-craving spirit and his independent mind would be so desperately needing - by trying hardest just to....get well-and-truly *away* from "Council and king", then, as I think the ol' saying goes, and for one thing especially as I've the distinct hunch and sneaking suspicion that the mood did take 'im like that, to the point where maybe sometimes it was all he could think about and all his heart was telling him anyway, where it was like that most overwhelming and undeniable urge and the irresistible temptation....
And honestly, now, he couldn't very well say no to the likes of *that* anyway, not at all like he couldn't somehow *not* act on his own heart's fervent and demanding dictates and his own soul's impulsive and desperate, earnest hopes and most profound and must-be-satiated desires.... If the thought occurred to him then, I'm thinking, if he really was feeling the need and the powerfully motivating, endlessly compelling urge like that, if it was something that burned bright and fierce and heartily vibrant in him anyway and was basically something that he couldn't at all very well ignore or ever try to deny - not, of course, that I'd imagine he ever would.
And in this case, too, I'm thinking that acting on instinct and trusting his own self and doing what his own heart most of all told him....
Listening and hearkening, then, to the demands of his own self, what *he* most of all needed and his own impulses, deepest yearnings and most sincere and lifelong-lasting desires, the ones which he always did cherish and which obviously did have such a great and enduring impact on him anyway....he was taking care of himself and his own needs, hopes and dreams, wishes and satisfactions....he was relying on the things that mattered most to *him*....and mmmmmm, yes, for that matter maybe even resorting to most whatever, however and whenever he could to have that, to actually eke something out just for himself when it was obviously what he needed most, and also maybe even when it must've seemed like....oh, I don't know, perhaps like he was liable to just go fair 'round the bend or at least *somewhat* zooey otherwise, if he didn't actually do something about it, and tend to what his own heart and impulse and urgings told him, what he personally was most yearning for and deeply craving....
If, ye-es, as in this case....he didn't take that rare and treasured and I'm sure *seriously* relieving chance....to get out from under the Jedi Council's harsh and critical, forever fault-finding eye and dispassionate and unsympathetic judgement, and ohhhh, yes, isn't*that* in itself just such the understatement when it comes to *them* and how they operate, too....seems like he'd be well within his rights to do it anyway, to try most whatever he can just for the sake of some *relief* and enjoyment and getting away from it all, to do as *he* most likes, what actually does matter to him personally and thus what obviously does do 'im a great deal of good anyway....whether it's for just a few minutes at a time, let's say, or even a rare and precious hour or two or even half the night, a while might or longer still, who knows?....
If he could make it happen for himself, after all, if it's something he could well-and-truly get away with, then, I don't see the reason why he wouldn't have tried it, to taste and smell and feel that freedom and have that invigoration, that sense of truly, deeply *living*, of having the fresh, crisp, cool pure wind riffle through his hair, the caress of the breeze awakening, enlivening against his skin....of experiencing that kind of raw power and fierce, thrumming, throatily-growling-and-rumbling speed just as he was once so used to anyway (mmmmmm, yep, if he's got a certain sentimental attachment to it then I'd say that's only natcheral anyway, considering
) and basically too being well enough able to go most wherever he'd like, to *do* as he'd like....his life, so what else could one reasonably expert him to do but live it, his way, right?
And maybe, too, he'd be managing it by, oh, let's say....borrowing a ship or a speeder or even a starfighter or some such....
H'm, h'm, and wherever do we think he learned how to do that, right, how he basically made it look *so* very smoothly and consummately easy at the time too, in commandeering the speeder and pushing it beyond all the limits there....as though he'd even been doing that sort o' thing really his life, that it wasn't at all the first time he'd tried something like this....because, well, what if he *had* actually been doing it....really just that long, anyway? It would explain a lot, I suppose.... *giggles*
And ohhhh now, honestly, if he was then goin' out for a wee bit of a spin or a much-needed breather or jaunt like that.... (whee, joyride, eh?
)
Well now, heck, maybe it'd be just for the sheer great pleasure and the tremendous relief of getting well away from the Temple's restrictive walls, and out from under that cold and tall, sharp and forbidding roof, the chance to actually be out from under constraint and restriction and constantly being told "no" or "impossible, can't be done" or "wrong", all the time....because there's only just so-o much one can take of that, only so much and then *no* more. I'd imagine, anyway.
And so maybe the chance to get well away from fol-de-rol and frustration like that, to escape it and finally breathe *free*, and rest easy, and be content and satisfied, lively and happy, is worth most *everything*, too, a bit of a treasured moment actually....probably would be for Anakin, anyway.
And really, now, who'd ever want to come back to constraint and restriction like that....when freedom, independence, thrills and invigoration and all that really are ever-so-much more fun....to which I'm sure Anakin could pretty passionately and vociferously attest, to be sure, but really, now, who knows but what he's like living proof of the concept anyway. If you know just what I mean.
Dawn. (fly, fly far and wide and free, sweet, charming, roguish and adorable, handsome powerful birdie.... to be sure....
)
