Dear Marvel,
Thank you for owning Iron Man. And thank you for turning the comics into movies. Even though Iron Man 2 was crap compared to the first movie, Tony Stark is fucking ace and exactly my type of hero. The fact that he's completely made of sex doesn't hurt, of course. His lines are like gold, except I can't sell them.
Love,
-A

The KotOR story is pretty easy to pick up from online sources. I mean, it's a video game, after all, and doesn't have an elaborate plot, just a good story line.
I've got a masterlist link set up on top of my journal under a year 2020 entry, which is where I will link all of my fanfic. I only have a couple of chapters there right now, because I'm making sure they are decent enough before posting. Hell, I have this old Darth Maul fic that is a complete novel that I might add for shits and grins. It's a bit mary sueish, but it was written before I had internet, only what a friend told me about fanfic. I wrote it by the standards that professional writers set for character development, having weaknesses, challenges, believability, so my femele OC shouldn't be annoying like a lot of them tend to be.
I'll be happy to read your Cade stories, you've made him seem very interesting, so I am looking forward to them :)
Good luck with school!

I'll definitely have to check that out sometime! And here's the link to the Cade story: http://onyxexistance.livejournal.com/106027.html#cutid1
Let me know what you think. :)

Cade smokes deathsticks in canon?

Cade is a serious druggie in canon. He fights it for a good portion of the comic series. It was actually brought back up in a recent issue.

I find that interesting about Cade and addiction problems because it's like they would never show that in Star Wars, especially the death stick thing. I have a couple of OCs who smoke cigarras, one occasionally, and the other fairly often, and I felt that challenges the SW theme of no smoking.
Reply
I thought death sticks were introduced in A New Hope, when they're in the Mos Eisley Cantina. Or maybe that wasn't until Attack of the Clones. Either way, it was with Obi-Wan. And Jedi don't deal with things that will become addicting. Though, once Cade's dad dies and he becomes a space pirate, he doesn't exactly embrace the ways of the Jedi. In issue #46 he says that he's neither Sith nor Jedi: he hates he Sith, but he's not good enough for the Jedi. One of my favourite moments. Ever.

They had a hookah in the Mos Eisley cantina, and Jabba the Hutt smokes something like it, and there is a thing called a "shisha" that Watto smokes. The death stick was introduced in AOTC. (What would Cade say if Obi Wan tried that mind trick line on him- You need to go home and rethink your life?) Cigarra come from Mathew Stover's Shatterpoint where he introduces the planet that produces the thyssel bark that is popular as a tobacco like product.
"I hate the Sith, but I'm not good enough for the Jedi," Hah! Good one!

Riiight. I knew there was something in the OT that was smoking related. And in the club scene in AotC, there's well...a club scene so all the smoking/drugs/gambling/etc. Well, when Cade sees Luke's ghost in any of the comics he tells him to gtfo and leave him alone. And that's his great-great-grandpa (or something to that effect) so I'm pretty damn sure he'd be telling Obi-Wan the same thing. Except with no family ties that would even think of holding him back.
Shatterpoint was an AMAZING book. I wasn't a huge Windu fan but *g* THAT BOOK!!!
Seriously. Cade is my favourite Star Wars character, hands down. Actually, he'd have to fight PM Padme because she's badass as all hell too...hmmm...crack!fic ideas are cracky. =B
Reply
I LOVE IT! Telling off Luke's ghost. I was so cracking up when I read that, because I was so betting that Cade just HATES the idea of being a descendent of the great Luke Skywalker by the way you describe him. So I will have read the blasted comics XD!
Shatterpoint is awesome. So is Traitor, and I haven't really been into any of the post ROTJ eu other than the early stuff by Kevin J Anderson and others.
A Cade/Padme fight, okay, way cracky and out to be hilarious XD Of course Padme would have the ultimate (x great) grandma weapon. As if Cade would care. :)
Reply
Ahaha. You have NO IDEA! He thinks it's BS and at one point asks Luke's ghost what the point of saving the galaxy is because the Skywalker family has done it so many times, and then the galaxy goes and turns around on them. He's fucking brilliant. YES YOU DO!
I read what I can get my hands on. I go through points where all I want to read is Star Wars books or Agatha Christie books or Sherlock Holmes mysteries. Trufax are true. -nods-
That crack!fic needs to happen. As does Han/Padme. Yes, I do have a crack!ship in my crack!closet. =B
Reply
"But I don't wanna save the galaxy! It stinks!"
Oo Sherlock Holmes.
Reply
Ahahaha. Cade is pretty much made of win.
Sherlock Holmes is my homeboi. -nods-
Reply
Now I'm beginning to think Cade is sexy.
Especially with your default icon.
Yeah, Sherlock. I still need to see the movie.

Cade is definitely fiiiiiine. Jan does an amazing job drawing him. Let me know if/when you get your hands on the comics!
Oooh! Do it! Even though it doesn't fit the books well on Holmes's personality, with all the fighting he does, it stays true to his relationship with Watson, the way he solves crimes, etc. Brilliantly done.
Reply
Han/Padme: "Why, yes, your worshipfullness." "We can discuss your differences or we can save the galaxy." Leia snarks, but Padme is rather blunt and straight forward. She's set Ani straight a couple of times!
Jan is a great artist. I love her Darth Maul. And her Jedi Master A'sharad Hett (hot!)
Yeah, I can see why someone would come up with one of those dreaful Mary Sues just to boff someone like Cade (and, yuck, rescue him....)
Have to find Holmes DVD, have to... yeah, with him tied up in bed, can't wait to see the reason behind that!
Reply
Ahahaha. THIS IS SO TRUE! Like mother like daughter and all that, isn't it? =D
Guuuh. Mary Sues. I remember when I just got into writing, you know, when you're ten or so? And want to have people like your characters? Oh the warrior Mary Sues I created. -shakes head- Makes me giggle, to say the least. =B Pffft. The only females who have what it takes to rescue Cade are 'theloveofhislife' Deliah Blue and his mother, Corde. Otherwise, the girls are just in it for the sex. -nods-
It was amazing. I've watched it twice on the internet. There's a couple of places you can find it to stream. Though, once the price comes down, I'm definitely getting my own copy. =D
