    My chocolate quote provided a great lightning bolt of inspiration, and I am happy to announce that I have finished a Qui-Gon/Tahl oneshot for this challenge:

    Hooray, our first entry is in! [face_dancing] Got it in the index; thanks so much for sharing!

    And yes, @Chyntuck , you’re absolutely right: your quote is from the Symposium. I’ve also seen it rendered as love “tries to make two out of one and heal the wound of human nature.” Of course, as to which is more accurate, you’re a much better judge than I! :D

    Because my muse likes to be contrary and work entirely out of order, I have finally finished a belated entry for the "3+1" Challenge, with three letters sent and one that never was in [Victoria] "I have the honor to remain ...", featuring Queen Victoria/Lord Melbourne. [face_love]

    Now, back to working on the current challenge. [face_mischief]

    The muse has been very uninspired lately, but who can resist chocolate? :p Could I try #6, please?

    I just realized that I had posted an incorrect link in my original post; I’ve fixed it now.
