*haunted expression*

Just so everyone knows, I'm still back at "How the hell am I writing space pirate fic?"

I mean, seriously. Space pirate fic.

the scariest words in the galaxy...

Quick quote from the space pirates (oh god, oh god) story:

Anakin had heard a lot about the Separatist general Grievous, but he'd never actually met the man. Or mostly duranium monstrosity, rather.

"General Kenobi," Grievous said, rolling the syllables around in his wheeze. "The Negotiator."

Kitster turned to stare at the Jedi. Even on the Outer Rim General Obi-Wan Kenobi was well-known, a hero of the Republic and the war against the Seps.

Kenobi smiled slightly and coldly. "General Grievous," he said, voice still extremely mild. "I require the return of Senator Amidala of Naboo, if you please."

"You are not in a position to negotiate, General Kenobi," Grievous rasped. "Take them away. Lord Sidious wants Kenobi alive."

The worst part about writing Star Wars is the dialgoue. *haunted look* Especially the Anakin/Padme bits -- that's holdover from "Summerlong", the Anakin/Padme fluff. And the villains. The heroes? Not usually as bad. (This isn't a problem in the Lostverse, damn it!)

And now I have to go play Battle of the Bands. Viva Homecoming 2007! (The theme is Lollipalooza -- Pure Sweetness. Better than EHSPN -- Where Everyone Is A Winner!)
