N'awww.

I love how you write Luke and Mara's relationship. Good stuff.

Sorry I forgot to reply! Could have sworn I already did. *puts bag over head*

Thank you very much! I appreciate the feedback. :D

Whoops, I'm late here. Sorry! Thank you very much; I'm glad you enjoyed it. :D

This was a fun read. Lots of ups and downs for the pair, some humor and frustration, all with a nice romantic thought at the end. I enjoyed it!

[gabri_jade]

Apologies for forgetting to reply! I thought I already had, but obviously I was mistaken. *facepalm*

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to read and reply, and I'm glad you liked it. :D

Aw! This was so sweet. I really enjoyed it, especially all of its realistic events.

Or if you were willing to put just a little more effort into it, if we had ten, we could form a Skywalker-only squadron. OMG! Can you imagine it? I agree with him, it would be fun!

Great fic! So, I hope you'll be delighting us with another one.

[gabri_jade]

Thank you! Ten Skywalker kids might be fun, yes, but considering who'd have to go through the ten pregnancies and births, Luke was walking a risky, risky path with that comment. :p

I appreciate the kind words! :)

Wow, after trolling the Pit, I was starting to wonder where the good Luke/Mara fics were. This is very sweet without being cloying - nice job!

[gabri_jade]

Sweet without being cloying is always what I aim for in a romantic fic, so that's high praise for me. Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it. :)

If you don't mind me asking, where are the major centers of L/M activity these days? It's kind of an old ship, so it's hard to tell what's active and what's not.

Thanks! :)

[gabri_jade]

I may not be the best person to ask about what's active, because I myself am only active at TheForce.Net's Jedi Council message boards and here. :p But the 'ship is certainly alive at the TF.N boards, and of course we hope people will post more Mara fics (which are often L/M fics as well) here, too. :)

I don't know how much L/M fanfic you've found and read, so I hope you'll pardon me if I list links here you're already familiar with, but I remember looking for L/M fics when I was very new to fanfic and how frustrating it could be and how gleeful I was to find a new story, so I made a list of links for you.

JC Fan Fic - Beyond the Saga - There's TF.N's fanfic board for stories set after RotJ, where most L/M obviously take place, timewise. However, there are occasionally L/M fics on the Saga board as well; there's a link to that at the top of Beyond's page.

L/M story index - This is a discussion thread for the L/M 'ship on TF.N's Fan Fiction Resource board, and on the first page it has a reasonably comprehensive index of L/M
