    Hmm...relationship drama, specifically, intriguing relationship drama. Pacing is good. Jusik's mood and tone waver from place to place, but seeing as he appears to be in a troubled place right now, that makes sense.

    Some oddities:
    Jusik is an ex-commando and has been married and separated/divorced/widowed/whatever but he's not even nineteen? Busy man. Perhaps there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for this (especially if he's a character from a previous work), but I found it somewhat jarring.

    Thanksgiving: do Mandalorians, or anyone in Star Wars, celebrate a holiday with this name? If not, perhaps a different, even completely made-up, term would serve better, as it distracts from the narrative flow to throw a reference to an earth-based event into the story.

    Ah, we get to see Jusik's point-of-view now? This looks like it'll be a great lot of fun! Waiting for Ardy to appear... :p

    Would you please put me on the PM list? Thanks! :)

    Very nice. Are the women in his dreams his wife and Helinith or his wife and Ardy though?

    I'm curious to see where you go with this.

    Add me to the Pm list.

    Love the way you tell Jusik's backstory. Like Raphire, I'm very curious about Marina, although I guess it'll take some while to find out the whole story.

    Looking forward to the next post too! :)

    Very interesting post here - we learn so much more about Jusik in every post! Indeed, I'm looking forward to finding out about the "organization", even if Jusik doesn't play a large role in it anymore.

    Lol. I loved this post! You are making me like Jusik more and more every post you write.

    I can't wait for him to meet Ardy!

    Really liked this post it might have been my favorite one so far.

    I'm still very curious about his wife though.

    Hehe, can't wait for them to talk face-to-face. :D

    A cool helmet indeed :cool: - it's programmed to respond to colors when Jusik signals so? I guess Jusik will prefer a multicolored environment then - being in a sterile lab or in the dark is not going to give him too many opportunities to use that helmet. ;)

    Lol. That certainly is a way to start a joyous relationship as Master and apprentice.

    Love how most of these posts seem to take place in a bar.

    Really enjoyed this and can't wait for more!

    Brava!
