*pokes Dev and Cat* no one pokes me and gets away with it! *laughs evily*

Fireyforce

Woohoo, 1001!

*pokes Firey back* Yeah! Trio fun! And I had my first official fencing lesson yesterday. MUCH FUN! En garde!

Ambyr, you're already in school? Ours doesn't start until after Labor Day.

Rise, my thread.

*pokes Cat again* are we seriously going to get into a poking fight?? Oh btw I'm in college now! hehehe, it's kewl, but also means that i probably won't be able to spend as much time around the boards as i'd like to. Ambyr are you gonna update this soon? *shrugs and pokes cat again for the heck of it* talk to you later.

*continually pokes FF* Yes, it appears we have begun a poking war.

Caught up again, Ambyr. Aha! I thought Milo was the son.

Don't give me that look. Men scream. Sometimes. I can admit that.
I loved that admission of vulnerability - what a guy!

Tahiri's eyes widened in horror, and I undid my restraints frantically. The thing shrieked and moaned with souless eyes as I began hitting it with all my might. I was losing, however, because the creature was climbing up her back to get to me. Removing the canister from my pocket, as it was harder than my fists, I accidentally pressed the button.

I heard a distinct snap-hiss, and then a buzzing noise as a violet beam of light came forth from the cylinder. (See, I knew it would come in handy.) A lightsaber! I knew what these did.

Like it was second nature, I stabbed the creature with the blade violently and rapidly. It released Tahiri with a moan. I deactivated the lightsaber as Tahiri fell into my arms. Jaina, already in the pilot's chair, was ready to go. I felt the craft rise and tightened my grasp on Tahiri. She pulled herself away for a second to look into my eyes.

"My son." she whispered. "My darling son."
Absolutely wonderful passage. His dad would be proud of him. I especially like the little asides you pop in. Milo is a very likable character. I like the idea of him being drawn to write about Anakin - makes me think the Force was guiding him.

Great drama, too.

Good luck with school. And don't worry about the lack of posts - at least you're doing better than me. LOL

I'm starting to not believe this will be updated...

Now, now, Ambyr, all that partying is really interrupting your duties here!
