    That was beautiful Am! The words seemed to flow together like a steady river of creativity! Absolutly wonderful job! You do such a marvelous job with descriptions! I felt as if I was actually there, in the moonlight of the Coruscant night with them!

    Absolutly, just stunning really Am! This is the first thing I've ever read that you've written and you've absolutly blown me away!

    Marvelous job!! :)

    Oh dear lord. Thank goodness I didn't read that when I was sick or my nose would have been in even worse shape.


    It was so sad, and as always so well done.

    WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

    LUKE!! LUKE!! NOO!!

    Ok, I'm done with my raging like a bull Pointed looks at Am and Kitt

    Now for the flowerly comments. WONDERFUL. I dislike H/L but this is so sweet!! Any sweeter and I'd be diabetic. Ouch, that was bad. Seriously though, Am, that was extremely poetic and well written. I wish you'd write an M/L!!! Well you did... but write more!

    I KNEW this title was from a Barbara Streisand song, too bad i was beaten to the punch 8-}
    I still demand bonus points!!!! (*hehe* j/k!)

    Ames, u have once again reduced me to a puddle of tears and melancholy. As of yet you are the only author to accomplish this, not just once mind you, but mulitple times. You truly have a gift for the angst.

    You are also one of the most creative authors on this board. I never would have thought up the idea for this AU, and i dont know of many people who could have either (not to take away from the various ingenious talents on these boards of course!).
    I very much appreciate the invitation u PMed me to read this.

    I bow down to your superiority!

    Ambre ? Thank you! Well mine are always depressing and gloomy - probably the reason why I encourage you to read them. I had to scavenge for this title.

    Sphere ? I?m not the stock market, so I have a tendency to be left out of the loop on rare occasions. It?s like taking candy for a baby, isn?t it?

    Sabre ? I await your reply. As I understand it, the award nominations closed yesterday, but the voting is coming up soon. Thank you!

    Dust ? Love your icon!

    George ? Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.

    Emma - *blushes* Thank you. It would seem a lot of people are checking my work out for the first time, and surprisingly finding it bearable. I bet I?ll look back on this in a year, and cringe like mad. I?m delighted I made it so realistic. Blown you away? Here comes another red tint to my cheeks.

    Hannah ? I thought you?d never get here! Needless to say, that humour of yours has me chuckling. Thank you.

    Sologal ? Thank you. I?d have to agree.

    Bria ? Sure, no problem. I intend to *bug* everyone.

    JA ? Scrolling on my thread? Tsk, tsk, naughty. I may just have to go and fetch the PS2 for some disciplinary actions. But look at the Brightside ? what Brightside? ? at least it?s not an oar. Well, this thread is now complete. The final decoration was to have you running through the thread bellowing at the top of your voice. I am content.

    Jade ? Thanks, girl.

    Bri - *blushes fiercely* I?m honoured. When an author receives such lovely feedback from a reader it?s marvellous. Although, this wasn?t just any feedback ? I?ve been awarded the best I could possibly think of in this thread. I?m glad I still have the ability to reduce people to tears, and have them loving every minute of it. I hope I keep doing it, for the sake of my insanity.

    Flyby ? Thank you! I appreciate the reply.


    For the benefit of people who insist on news, I must say that nothing has progressed. I?ve been terribly busy lately, and I hope to find time for this soon (whenever that ?time? shall be is a mystery to me).

    The H/L award nominations closed today, and I expect the voting to open in a day or so. Let?s keep our fingers crossed!

    Whoa....Am, that was amazing. I don't even know what to say. I'm most definitely speechless.

    The descriptions left me breathless, but then, you always where good at that. I love the setting for the meeting.

    It was a lovely story....But....YOU KILLED CHEWIE!!!! AND YOU SCRAPPED R2!!!!

    *ahem* Sorry about that, I'm still running on the "Hate Am for killing R2" time.

    Anyhoo, I like how Leia realized she had changed what was meant to happen and blamed herself. I mean...It fit and it was a nice touch.

    I also like that Isolder and her never...well, they're married 'friends.' :D Very nice.

    Well, I'm going to go back to being speechless. Spectacular work, Am! Bravo! *thunderous applause for Am as Jaci disappears from view into the mist, bowing.*



    ;) I warned you that I was in a weird mood.

    [face_shocked] AAAGHH! Amsie with a PS2? Sorry, but somehow, the idea of that gives me the creeps, considering the kinds of things she does to her characters on a regular basis.......

    I'll stick with fan fiction, TV, and Jedi Outcast, thank you very much :D

    Bri - *crosses toes*

    RangerPrincess ? Thank you very much. It was my pleasure. I hope you plan to investigate my upcoming ventures into different SW genres.

    Jaci - *blushes* You flatter me so! Well, speak your mind, anyway! I didn?t expect such a large reply, but boy am I thankful for it. I?m immensely glad I captured the flavour of the OT and the characters. Ah, hating Am session for the Wookie and the droid still going on? *pokes out tongue* Should of killed C-3PO long ago. We?re all weird when we?re up at the time you posted this.

    Sphere ? You betcha bottom dollar. Just envision me with an oar, and you?ll be horrified by it.

    Oba ? Thanks, sweets!

    Anyone else willing to boost my ego? *sits down, trying to wait patiently*

    (visualizes Am holding up an oar, and shudders) Now THAT is scary. Yet at the same time, there's something about that I can't help but find appeali- uh, never mind..... [face_plain]

    LOL! Something appealing about an oar?

    *snicker* Wow, I'm -so- not commenting on that....

    What can I say except :p? Shush you, Jadey. You've brainwashed enough T/JK fans - if you know what I mean.

    And you, sphere, you find most things about me appealing, no?

    Lady__Skywalker: Betawan! Thank you kindly for the reply. Much obliged!

    Bri: *blushes* Can you explain to me why I am always blushing in front of you? Pray tell, do you have this secret potion? You never know, I may be tackling OTHER families next ;)


    Bri is right, and so is my sig ? ?You Don?t Bring Me Flowers Anymore? won Best Vignette and Best Tear-jerker (well, tied I think). I also snagged the Best Author, which I?m still honoured by, despite a week or so that has passed since then. Thanks to the votes, people!

    Oh, and an update on the little edit I just placed ? general corrections, some new sentences, and a summary. Tell me what you think. I?d be amazed if someone can catch the new sentences, though that isn?t necessary.

    I also have a random fact in my head, brought to you by ThePodSquad - apparently the Neil and Barb song I picked for the title is ranked #43 on the "Best Love Songs Ever" table. I hope I've gotten it right, hehe. (Inform me if I'm wrong, Hannah :D)

    Now, I?m off to grab me some beta-readers. Tata!

    Am [face_love]
