that was great. I don't follow the EU- but that was awesomely funny.

Why thank you. I hoped it would be accessible for general readers--minus the Union reference, of course. Which is also quite entertaining in itself. Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Great tone to your story and of course Threepio, poor longsuffering Threepio, is victimized once more. The kids seemed like Solo kids, all right, and I know enough about the EU to appreciate the final two paragraphs. I liked Chewie's two hundred years' worth of life letting him in on the 'they're up to something' vibe.

Yay for victimizing Threepio! Yay for Chewie! I do miss the walking carpet.

If you didn't pick up on the last two paragraphs, you're better off not understanding. It's too sad.

That's adorable. I love the kids being kids. And, OW to the ending.

I think you're using some lingo I'm not familiar with, unless "OW" is simply as in "ow, I just stubbed my toe" or "ow, I just rolled my ankle on a stick in the grass playing frisbee and I think I might've sprained something because something popped."

No problem. And I like people who dig Scott Summers.

I really want those sunglasses he wore in that scene. Those were some spiffy shades.

Very cute. Loved how they blackmailed Chewie into helping. The ending was very sad, though, considering LotF.

Good job.

It is sad, isn't it? I knew that when I was doing it, but -- sad. A friend sent me the first two YJK omnibus collections out of sentimentality. Paging through those was sad, too--not just because of classic Jaina & Jacen, but because they're so melodramatic sometimes it's painful. (E.g.: Tenel Ka and Tamith Kai having a war of words on Yavin 4. *shivers* The horror.)

I loved this and I almost wish the Solo kids could have stayed this way forever but the powers-that-be decided to show us how cruel life can be in NJO and especial LOTF.

I liked how we got to read Chewbacca's words too and how very fatherly and intelligent and caring he is with Han's children even when they're a pain in the butt.

This was sad though: "Even if we were on different sides of the galaxy, we’d still have each other."

I think a lot of us wish the Solo kids could've stayed like that, even if Jacen became a lot less corny-awful. He was a bit of a dork, and, I like dorks... *sniff*
