Discussion Fanfic Quotes

?I won?t allow you to throw your life away for a stupid mission. If this one is going to count, we need to do it right.? [Tahiri Viela]

?I agree. So, how do we start?? Jacen asked.

Again, Tahiri huffed, rolling her eyes, ?I thought you knew, genius? What, Anakin didn?t tell you where you could get a Vong world ship?

I love quotes, I really do. I have countless archives of them. I shall now shamelessly quote one of my own fics.

SCENE: Even Jedi classes have the annoying student.

The Jedi teacher sensed the impatience behind him like a hot flame, he slowly turned around.
"Yes, Skywalker, what is it?"
?Master Mah, can you move Shawn??
?....Into a box?? Jezria completed for her, the other students giggled.

SCENE: More Jedi class stuff.

Master Mah passed out the Ancient Jedi history exam, there was a few moments of silence as everyone nervously looked them over. Then the soft discussion began.
?Hey I got two bonus marks! No wait, four!? Paul Skywalker commented ecstatically. Nevar Heerim leaned over to look.
?Those are just a smudges,? he said with a dismissive poke at the paper. Paul slumped back into his chair and grumbled.
?Oh fine, lower my self-esteem.? Nevar grinned.
?Okay, you're an idiot too.?

Both are from "PotF" an alternate SW universe.

 

"I can't get this to work!" Tahiri complained.

"Try hitting it," Anakin suggested helpfully.

"This is a very sensitive piece of equipment," Tahiri replied irritibly.

"Oh." Anakin nodded sagely. "Try kicking it. Kicking helps sometimes."

Tahiri's voice became a low warning growl. "Anakin..."

"I love you too," Anakin replied sweetly.

I actually haven't used that line yet, but it was sitting here in my notebook, and I know I'm gonna use it eventually :).

 

These are from Alli-Wan's "Coming Home" (and, though the quotes I'm posting are funny, I should warn you that the first part of the story moved me to tears.)
------
Scene: The new Skywalker baby won't stop crying, and Padmé's handmaidens have become slightly unnerved.

The young woman's head swayed drunkenly. "Everything. We tried everything. Warm baths, cool baths, sonic baths, no baths. Bantha milk, nerf milk, Padme's milk, soy milk!" Eirtaé clutched the Jedi's sopping robe to emphasize the point. "Sabe even had lactation injections to see if that would work!" Eirtaé chuckled ruefully. "We tried every single type of sleepsuit, every type of diaper, every SITH DAMN LULLABYE IN THE NABOO CANON! THERE ARE 462 SEPARATE LULLABYES! WE TRIED ALL OF THEM!"


And later...

Nearby a handmaiden walked by, carrying a beet-faced little screaming bundle and the window rattled as the child's voice rose yet another painful octave. In the corner, another handmaiden attempting to clear up the changing table inadvertently knocked into a laden rocking chair, which promptly dumped a large pile of laundry from its seat to the floor. The young woman stared at it listlessly as her companion began a rather loud and tone-deaf rendition of "The Ewok's Podrace". It was far past time for an intervention.

Particularly since "The Ewok's Podrace" was a rather bawdy Corellian drinking song.

That's all for now. You can find her fic here.

I read a lot of fanfics and there are a lot of great quotes out there. The ones below are from 2 of the current fics I'm reading.


From FATHERS AND SONS by MIRA TERRIK and GR-ADM-THRAWN


Soontir Fel is thinking about what he's going to say when he sees Wedge after all these years:


The alarm beeped indicating he was closing in on his destination. Ambassador Fel put on his helmet as the starlines subsided and gracefully introduced Amaranth.

Antilles, I heard you rammed the Lusankya into a Vong mother ship. Do you need a course in the use of Super Star Destroyers? ? No, too ironic.

Antilles, Syal sends her love. I came to ask when you?ll come over and visit? ? No, he?ll know I?m lying.

Antilles .. what the hell are you doing sitting on your ass ? blowing up your fleet and destroying your most valuable asset ? my son! ? Good, but too direct ...


Kyp and Jag have just returned from escort duty:


"Hmm. I would think that escort duty is the Chiss equivalent to downtime.? A small grin touched his lips, indicating he wasn?t being serious.

Despite himself, Jag smirked. ?What?s ?downtime???

Durron laughed. ?Well, what do you do for recreation back in the Unknown Regions??

?Come to the Known regions and help fight a war.?


and this classic scene, where Soontir Fel gave Jag a care package his mother put together for him:


?Please give them my thanks when you see them.? Jag said, digging a little further into the bag.

Soontir nodded. ?Of course. I believe your mother also packed a few shirts and some clean underwear--?

"Thank you." Jag snapped the bag shut, narrowing his stare. He felt the blush hit his cheeks at the same time his father?s lips twitched into a grin.

Iella leaned across the table and set a bowl of fruit in front of them. Jag didn?t miss the smile on her face.

?One can never have too much clean underwear--? Wedge looked as if he were having difficulty containing his laughter.


Finally, this is from INTO THE UNKNOWN by MELYANNA:


Jag typed in a code, and a message popped up on the screen. It was short, in Jaina's typical, hurried style, but Jag had to read through it twice to actually comprehend what she had said.


TO: General Jagged Fel, Imperial Liason Office
FROM: Colonel Jaina Solo Fel, New Republic Reserves

Jag, Danae ran across something last night - someone is after a prototype of the Death Star. Danae and I are taking the Spirit to a planet called Geonosis. We'll be in and out and back in a few days, so there's no reason to be worried or do anything rash. Like follow us.

Jaina


These two stories are so great right now, I highly recommend them!!


Fathers and Sons

Into the Unknown

 

Here's the whole of that scene from Devotion...

Jaina Solo and Jag Fel have just married in secret. Jaina just broke the news to Daddy...


Turning to Jag, Han smiled. "Kid, there's three things you need to remember if you're married to my daughter. One, my wife is the former chief-of-state, my brother-in-law is head of the Jedi, and I helped blow up two Death Stars. We can make your life a living hell."

Jag nodded that he understood, and even though he wasn't a Jedi, Han could tell he understood perfectly.

"Two," Han went on. "Jaina is the most amazing woman in the galaxy, but she is also the most stubborn, willful girl you will ever meet. You think I have a bad temper? You should see Jaina when she's angry."

"I have, sir," Jag reminded him. He grimaced. "Several times."

Han grinned. At least the boy could hold his own against Jaina, which was saying quite a bit about Jag. "And three," Han said. "Never, ever make Luke Skywalker angry. He doesn't need the dark side to scare you senseless. He's got something much scarier."

"What's that?" Jag asked.

Han grinned. "Mara Jade."

 

LOL these lines are such winners! Love fan fic.

 

Well, seeing as no other Cliquer has said it...

"Cake!"

 

*grin* Shameless self promotion time!


"A man should always have the final say in the house. That is why it is important he shouldn't be allowed to speak in the first place."

- (Flint in A Broom With A View)

"There are only three steps to becoming an accomplished Jedi padawan. First, do whatever your master tells you. Second, meditate a lot. Third, always have a clean pair of socks. If you are anything like I was you will disregard the first, fall asleep during the second and develop a selective sense of smell for the third."

- (Obi-Wan Kenobi to Anakin Skywalker in an as yet unnamed snapshot)

"Hormones are of the dark side of the force. Hormones lead to trouble. Trouble leads suffering. Suffering leads to chemical suppression. Have you got that?"

- (Qui-Gon Jinn in Beard: Part One)

"You've never liked beards." Obi-Wan huffed at her. "You're just being irrationally beardist!"

- (Obi-Wan Kenobi in Beard: Part Three)

"Tell me, Mr. Leaford. Do you like heights?" Dex asked.
"W-why do you ask?" Linus stammered.
"No reason." Dex said as the doors shut them all in.

He grinned at Linus. "Going up."

- (Jedi Master Dex Berlingside in Someone to Watch over Me)

"There's too much blood in my alcohol stream."

- (Obi-Wan Kenobi in Lions and Tigers and Padawans, Oh My!)

?Just quit bleating, will ya.? Simeon hissed. ?I?m going to take an anal reading.?
?YOU?RE WHAT!!!? Kenobi felt himself come fully conscious very rapidly.

Simeon looked across at him, surprised. ?It?ll only take a moment. It won?t hurt. Not like that time you let Jemmiah wax your chest with those strips of??
?No WAY!?
?Awwww, c?mon. It?s a question of mind over matter.? Simeon reassured Obi-Wan. ?I don?t mind and you don?t matter.?
?You aren?t qualified to fetch the tea!? yelled Obi-Wan frantically.
?I?ve done one of these before.? Simeon said in his defense. ?I?ll admit, the patient was a Wookie. It?s not my fault we lost the thermometer??

- (Healer Apprentice Simeon Cates & Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi in Lions and Tigers and Padawans, Oh My!)


"She said that as you asked about her having her own teeth, she wants to ask if you have got your own?er, I'd better not repeat that, actually." Jonas rolled his eyes. "Because she says that if you do, she's got a small fruit knife in her pocket and you won't have 'em for much longer?"

"This is the point in the story where the rough, tough jedi hero runs and hides under his masters robe for the next twenty minutes." Obi-Wan retreated rapidly.

"You coward!" Jemmy laughed.

"You heard her!" Kenobi panicked. "She's got a fruit knife! And she's NOT getting to peel my oranges, that's for darn sure!"

- (Jonas Suul, Jemmiah Gleshan & Obi-Wan Kenobi in A Night To (almost) Remember)

 

From Rebel High

All in all, it was a pretty spiffy looking place, Han decided. He took a short moment to marvel at it, then another moment to wonder how he had ended up in such a decidedly agreeable place. He shrugged to himself. After receiving the invitation to the school, how could he have resisted? Free food, a place to say, an education -- that might help him in the smuggling business.

________

It was at that moment in which Qui-Gon remembered a vital piece of information -- he couldn?t drive.

___________

?Why don?t you go away, Palpy?? ? Qui-Gon Jinn

_____________

?This is a bunch of mumbo-jumbo and hocus-pocus! Why do we have to take this class?? Han Solo grumbled, brushing his brown hair back.

?Because we?re Jedi in a Jedi school, and need to learn about the Force?? Luke supplied helpfully. Leia slyly added,

?That?s what you learn in a Jedi High School, Han. Why? Are you intimidated by us??

____________________

?We all look like each other. It?s as if we are all related-as if Anakin and I are Leia and Luke?s parents, and Han and Leia yours!? Padme concluded with abrupt assurance.

*DUNN, DUN, DUUNN! *

?What the sith is up with the crazy music?? Han growled in annoyance.

?You act as if someone is purposely doing the crazy music for us!? Luke said with a raised eyebrow.? [/i]

Nah, Luney, I want to let my readers (both of them) have their fun.

 

"It's not one person, or even a group. At least not one that I'm aware of. It's just fate, destiny, whatever you want to call it. Many say it's a god, and perhaps it is. But it's no mortal, no person that you could meet. Mortals are passionate people, unjust. Which is why they make the perfect pawns."

"Aren't you just a little bit short for a stormtrooper?" Princess Jaina asked.

"Punishment...perhaps," her voice said, though her lips didn't move. She sounded far away, her voice an echo. "Or...sacrifice. Something...beyond..."

"Kill me, if you will," Kenobi said serenely. "Though I do not think it in your nature to do so."
"I am a Sith."
"You are suppose to be, perhaps. You are not doing a very good job."

|It's incredible to believe that so much has changed in so short an amount of measurable time. Worlds are different places entirely, and the Universe itself no longer revolves around the same axis.|

Those are all from That Which Time Destroys, by yours truly.

Hope I got that HTML right... I'm still learning it...

 

Unexpected Allies by Jade243 Jaina and her cousin Cerelia Skywalker are tormenting a spy from Naboo who was sent to to look after Cerelia for the governors son. But to his belatetly surprise he learns that Cerelia can take care of herself. While in the middle of the torchure session Anakin learns of Valera's trechery towards his family and puts the black armour and mask back on.



"What is going on in here?" Anakin barked,

"This is the man who turned Jaina over to the Peace Brigade," Cerelia answered coolly, catching on.

Jaina smirked. "He's also the one who tried to assassinate Colonel Fel."

"This is the man who handed over my granddaughter to the Peace Brigade?" he demanded coldly.

"Yes," Cerelia said.

"And you took it upon yourselves to teach him a lesson?" Anakin asked.

Jaina batted her eyes, a dark smile creeping on her face. "We are your granddaughters, Lord Vader. It?s in our blood."

Anakin nodded. "So it is, child. So it is."

Cerelia brandished the electro-jabbers in her hand, and gestured to Jaina's ryyk blades. "May we continue, Grandfather?" she asked with a dangerous gleam in her eye.

"No," Anakin replied, "Such simple methods are not at all appropriate for my granddaughters. Allow me to show you a more... persuasive method."

The door slid shut with an ominous swish as Anakin moved toward the torture and interrogation droids sitting off to the side.

Throughout the ship, heads turned and people stopped what they were doing as Valera's tortured screams echoed throughout the ventilation system. Luke, Leia, and Kieran exchanged glances. "He's your father,"

highly recommend this fic, it is very well done.

 

I hate to do self-promotion, but... I think they're funny. They're from Continuation. Here goes:

---

"Yes, well, having twin Jedi children makes four months an eternity," Jaina said, taking her daughter into her arms. "Were Jacen and I this bad when we were four?"

"Of course you were, sweetheart," Han put in. "All Jedi children are. You'll get used to it, or you'll go crazy. Your choice."

"Which one did you choose?" Jag asked, looking wholely innocent.

Han glared at him mock menacingly. "Look, kid, you just watch it. In twenty years, you'll be in the same boat I am."

"Not exactly correct, sir," Jag told his father-in-law. "In twenty years, I'll only be 45, not 60, as you are. That's a whole different boat, sir."

[hr]
[i]If Threepio hadn't talked me into talking Uncle Owen into buying Artoo, I would still be on that farm, back on Tatooine. Leia would have been killed. Han would still be a smuggler. Mara would still be an assassin. And none of our children would have been born. For all of this, I have Threepio to thank.

Force, I can't believe I just thought that.[/i]

[hr]
"So Princess, how much longer do we get to stay here before your duty calls you back to the hub of the galaxy?"

"The Senate expects me back in three days," Leia Solo answered her husband. "You figure out when we need to leave. And don't forget to factor in the time we'll need to repair the hyperdrive."

[hr]
Now that I've taken up enough space here with shameless self-promotion, I'll go. ;)

YOU ARE THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE.

My favourite quotes, from The Anakin Skywalker Diaries: Part 1: The Mission


?Now, Ani, was that really necessary??

?Very much so.?

?Why did you feel you had to moon him??

?He needed mooning.?

?He needed mooning??

?Yes, he did. Come on, babe, you saw the way he was looking at you. He wanted a piece of ass. So I gave him one.?


~*^SARA^*~

 

This is from Arwyn Whitesun's fic First Knight. I don't remember it exactly, it's something along the lines of:
"Big Yehzun say, you want die slow or you want die quick?"
"He don't want die at all!"

Naturally, it's Obi-wan they're talking about, who ELSE gets into those sorts of situations?

 

From "Trials of the Jedi" by Tych_sel:

[Tahiri] "So in other words, shoot first, ask questions second?"

[Jaina] "Tahiri, you keep that attitude up, and I'll begin to wonder if you aren't somehow related to my father."

When it comes to the Solos, we laugh because it's funny and we laugh because it's true.

 

This is from "None of Us Perfect" by Elsimor:

"He can't talk if he's dead, you know," Eliel called, risking a glance over her shoulder.

Obi-Wan scowled at her, then dodged to the right instinctively as a shot from the blaster whizzed by her blade, narrowly missing him. "Neither can I!"

 

Any more quotes? I'll have some more'a mine along soon!

 

As a newbie, am I justified as to having absolutely no shame?

Here are some excerpts from my fic, Devastation:

For humor-

Obi-Wan scanned the rest of the room. ?Where are Padmé and Anakin??

?Obi-Wan, we only have one room with a bed. Even I?m not this naïve.?

?So, are they in there??

?You have a one-track mind, do you know that? Yes. They?re in the room with the bed. If there?s anything else you would like to know, please review your Initiate classes before speaking. I already had this talk with my Padawan.?

And for angst-

?No!? he almost screamed, tearing to the window. Above him, Coruscant was spread out, and the buildings pointed towards the sky and that heaven people had talked about and for a while, that he had believed in.

If there was a heaven, this would have been purgatory.

He sank forward, tears streaming down his face, and touched his forehead to the glass. His breath was not steaming up the window, because he had the craziest feeling that he wasn?t, really, breathing.

If you like it, here's a link, I've just started the story... what would have happened if Anakin had never been found?

The following is from a story I'm reading now by Mira_Terrik and Gr-Adm-Thrawn called Fathers and Sons :


Jaina and Baron Fel:


?Such an insult to my son,? he began, his voice low. ?He comes here to offer his superior talents to the war effort, to assist where he is needed and to provide tactical observations and suggestions. Instead, he is delegated to Three Flight on this Twin Suns Squadron. And, to add insult to injury, he is becoming nothing more than a playmate for Wedge?s pet project.? He shook his head slowly. ?His skills are being wasted.?

Jaina bristled but she masked her irritation with the sweetest of smiles. She took every kiss and every touch she and Jag have shared and used them to help reinforce her next words.

?Oh, General! Trust me!? she said, her tone breathless, ?His skills aren?t going to waste! I know Jag?s very adept at what he does.?


and then a little later, with Jag there:


Jaina turned back to Jag, the smile fading. Her eyes sparkled with something he could not distinguish and before he could say anything, Jaina leaned up and pressed her lips to his.

Her palms fell flat against his chest as she leaned against him, deepening the kiss. It was a bold move, one that both surprised and delighted him. Her lips were soft and sweet, her opened-mouth gasp an invitation to continue. He wanted to -- desperately -- but before he could take advantage of the opportunity she presented him with, Jaina broke the kiss and stepped back.

Trailing a finger along his jawline, she sighed, content. ?See you later, lover.?

She shot the Baron a look, a twinge of a smile on her lips, then walked away.


This story has it all! I highly recommend it to those who like to read about Baron Fel because Mira and the Admiral are doing great things in this story. Here's the link:
