O........K.

Now just what the hell are you going to come up with next? (I take it that one important scene we're going to see is how Vader is healed, because when we first meet him in RMTN he's still ravaged and when we see him in Blades he's a handsome devil of a guy). The scene with the cookies was brilliantly eye-moistening.

One quibble, though. I don't understand why Len didn't tell Gryphon that Kei was alive when G came to Naboo right after the events of RMTN. Seems to me that news of that magnitude (particularly since Len knew what was going on, after Corwin filled him in on all the news) should have been passed on right away. _Yes_, I know there was a lot of stuff going on, but still and all.

-Joe-

By the time G had to leave Naboo (which was not long after the last scene of Road Movie), Len was still unable to regain full consciousness for more than about 20 seconds at a time. They didn't really have a chance to talk about anything in, uh, depth. :)

I'd never thought of Obi Wan Kenobi as cool until ROS, and after that, well, damn. I'm with you and Ardaniel - he is beyond amazing and made that movie. George Lucas owes Ewan McGregor and Harrison Ford big.

Very happy and still grinning (I had to re-read that scene again before I hit the sack around 2am),
t.

p.s. what will the Jedi Order do with a Indiana Jones? I mean, UF already has Indiana Jones and Jackie Chan! How many wisecracking, brilliant, sexy heroes can one universe have?

p.p.s. Can you imagine a fight scene with him, Utena, and Vader? Insane. You could retire on the ticket sales.

Akio: Give in, Rose Prince - your resistance is futile!

Utena: <wipes blood from her mouth> Never. <Dives over the energy sword of yet another Covenant Elite>

Obi-wan: <dueling back to back with Vader against the Order of the Black Rose> Anakyn, you can't really expect her to win this one her own. <Idly kicks one Ani Skywalker in the chops> Get up there and help her, I can hold the stairwell.

Vader: <bisects Touga and uses the Force to push Saionji down the stairs> I find your lack of faith in the Chosen One...disturbing. <Makes a fist, and far above, a Federation starship suddenly crumples>

Obi-wan: <shakes his head> Concentrate Padawan!

Vader: <not sounding very repentant> Sorry, Master.

Sorry, got way too excited there...I'll do back to work now...

OK, time for a brief reminder, folks.

Please don't make one-word posts like this that have no actual nutritional content. If you think it's funny, and you want to tell the person who posted it so, please, by all means send them a private message. But single posts consisting of the word "*shatter*" or "*dies*" or stuff like that don't actually really do anything but up your post count and annoy people who are looking for content.

This has been a friendly reminder by your Administrative Staff. Carry on with your speculation and discussion.

PS. I'm enjoying seeing where you think we're going next.

If I recall correctly there was a TF profile for a Decepticon named Black Jack.
I don't know if its the same person though :D

y'know i'd just like to say that the first four letters of Or'lyn'do's name
spell Orly :D

Well, the southern continent of Hyeruul, Ok't'ponn, is actually a highly-fragmented landmass, only considered a continent because it occupies a single tectonic plate. Its residents, darker-skinned than the occupants of the two northern continents (especially the downright pale folk from the desert continent of Dr'guun), are largely seafaring as a result, and more than a few have traditionally taken to buckling swashes as a way of life.

So, you know. September 19th sounds rather different on Hyeruul than it does here. :)

Hm. Triforce, Thirteen Treasures... Ganondorf, Dark Dweller... there's potential for a lot of confusion there. ^.^

Or mergence. Don't forget the possibility of mergence.

"I have come to you because Ganondorf, the Dweller in Darkness, has broken free of his bindings and seeks the thirteen pieces of the Triforce..."

(Doing that sort of thing is easy. Doing it well takes practice. But that's why we have EPU. They do all the work, and we just stand back and tell them how awesome they are.)

Although I'll grant that reversing them intentionally might be a decent joke, my experience is that most people don't know either of those roots.

Life has taught me few things, but one of the things I have learned is that if you feel the need to apologize before doing something, you probably should just not do it.

Trivia: That bit was inspired by the back page of the original HŌL: Human Occupied Landfill RPG manual, which had a picture of the Grim Reaper with a cookie. "Would you like a sugar cookie? I bake them myself."

HOL! My tabletop friends and I still joke about the DM, the drano, and the Yoo-hoo. I have yet to see the inside of the book.

"Guess you failed your saving throw on THAT one, Mr. Ten-by-ten Stone Corridor!"

"They say one should not speak unkindly of the dead, so I say, 'nice try'." --Lezard

To me, it seemed like a brillain working in of the bumper sticker/icon that says, in big letter, "Come to the Dark Side", and below that, in smaller ones, "we have cookies".

I'm gonna go ahead and think it's brilliant anyway.

Well, presumably from his Hyelian Jedi Master.

>Oh dear... Or'lyn'do? I saw it coming, but I thought, "Nah, couldn't
>be..."

The funny part is, that's at least partly accidental. I named Emmy's brother the future pirate "Or'lyn'do" long before Pirates of the Caribbean was made.

(And, for the record, Orlyn's former first mate Black Jack is not Captain Jack Sparrow. That part's a total coincidence. Pretty sure I wrote that dialogue before I saw The Curse of the Black Pearl.)

>And is it just my
>imagination or are you indeed borrowing cultural references from The
>Priates of Dark Water?

I didn't - I've never seen the show - but Marty Rose, who did most of Hyeruul's design work, did. The equatorial regions of the planet Hyeruul are much more nautically-oriented and swashbuckling than the capital region, where Emmy comes from.

>You brought Obi-wan back to life... You certainly like to resurect
>people, dont'cha?

It does seem to be a recurring theme, for whatever reason. In Obi-Wan's case, I was morally obliged to do it after he was the only character who did anything like stay on-model in the entirety of Revenge of the Sith. Ewan McGregor's Obi-Wan is a diamond in a heap of coal in that film.

(Interestingly, The Fulcrum of Fate may be the only single story - it's certainly the only one I know of - to contain both the Guinness and McGregor Obi-Wans. :)

Darn. I was looking forward to seeing CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow in UF. He's almost certainly one of Eris's favorites. :)

You should know by now that what I said above has no bearing on whether you someday will.

Before Gryph edited it, the Previews article on the GN Don't Panic! over in the UF general forum mentioned a "permanently sunbaked pirate". Certainly the most obvious interpretation is Jack, and whether or not he's been temporarily excised from the story, certainly he'll be showing up again.

I think that's one of Redneck's characters, but i suppose stranger things have happened.

BLUE

Honestly, I hit on an entirely different image. I was like "....it's Pirate Legolas?" Of course, the whole Hyelian/Elf thing probably helped.

"All good things come to an end...somehow I think Disney didn't get the memo."

Wouldn't that be Peg-Legolas? 8)

Now look what you've done — I'm having "still the prettiest!" flashbacks...
