Twenty-second part of a work in progress
Title: You Became to Me (as suggested by avari_maethor)
*Pairing: Mainly Anakin/Obi-Wan with some mention of Padmé
Rating: Fairly PG-13ish now, but inevitably at least an R (?)
Disclaimer: I do not own the lovely boys from Star Wars, more's the pity! What I do have is an extremely contrary muse that refuses to shut up ( Read more... )

you want this . . ., be mindful of your thoughts . . ., i can arrange that!, fear of loss is a path to the dark side., always two there are . . ., . . . delusions of grandeur . . ., no reward is worth this!, twice the pride double the fall, do or do not. there is no try., sith lords are our speciality, i grow tired of asking this., don't underestimate the force., don't make me kill you, don't get technical with me!

Just a quick note - Dooku is actually Qui-Gon's height. They're both 6'4" Just something that stood out at me. :)

Oh, yes, Dooku is much taller than Anakin, quite clearly so. The suit adds something like half a head of additional height to Anakin once he's become Vader. I believe that they put lifts in Hayden's shoes to make sure he'd come up to the 6'7" mark in the suit in RotS . . .

I've edited in a few changes that hopefully accurately reflect their heights. Can you maybe please (pretty please with sugar on top?) read it and tell me if it sounds okay to you?

They are? Hhmmm . . . I thought he was about an inch shorter. Maybe it was an inch taller, not shorter . . . I'll have to double-check my heights. Liam is 6'4" (that I'm sure of), which means so is Qui-Gon. I know Qui-Gon is bulkier and taller than any of the others, even Anakin (Hayden's like 6'2" or thereabouts, I believe. Almost too short to wear the Vader suit properly) . . . Thanks for pointing that out! I'll have to come back and change things after I get back home (it's movie matinee day).

You know, I'm getting some slightly conflicting information here on heights. I can understand it with Anakin/Hayden (I think he grew another inch between AotC and RotS, which explains the whole 6'1" or 6'2" thing) and the whole half an inch difference in height for Obi-Wan from Episodes I-III and IV-VI. But there are sites that have Dooku/Christopher Lee at 6'4" and others that have him at 6'5" and frankly it's hard to tell for sure which makes more sense since we never see him next to Qui-Gon, who's definitely 6'4". I'm thinking it might be more appropriate to state that Dooku is just the slightest bit taller than Qui-Gon but that Qui-Gon's greater bulk (broader shoulders, etc.) just makes him seem taller/bigger than he is . . .
