I'm not familiar with Alaia (as in, the source material she comes from, if any), but I must admit she's intriguing. Having a hitchhiker dad - a Guide-style hitchhiker - certainly explains the Guide rather than a Derek book.

But I gotta say... the mental image of Derek (Bugrom God of War, yaarrrr!) meeting Obi-wan has been making me chuckle all day. I have no idea what they'd say, or why they'd meet, or anything. It's just *cool*.

Good mantra for anyone, but ESPECIALLY a padawan. Hell, if Lucas-style Anakyn had followed that advice, who's to say but that the whole crapfest could've been avoided? :)

OH YES. MUST have more. *drool*

Ok, I'll stop now.
