I re-read WotR and Fulcrum this week, and something popped out at me, namely the scene between Kahm Santova and Vader.

I'm pretty sure that it was mentioned somewhere that Kahm Santova is still alive, although I could be wrong -- I haven't been able to find it. Are we going to get to see a reunion?

That could be... most interesting.

I've been waiting for this reunion for a long time, too, and I seem to recall Rianna mentioning her mother's alive in the first fic she appears in. I forget the name, but it was in GA or Exile. She may have referred to her mother in the present tense in a later fic, too.

Vague, I know. =)

If I remember right, she gets emails from her father in one of the Redneck stories, and her mother in SotS, shortly after Roger comes out as a 'Sith' and gets his shit wrecked for the second time.

I know it's Somebody Else's Fight, but damn I'd like to see Vader disassemble Roger.

bah. If his Padawan in shadow Rei can do it, Vader would have no problems.

Which is why I'd enjoy it so much.

Besides which, Rei didn't actually have much luck with Roger (unless you count being tossed into a hole as being particularly lucky - I don't).

Ferret of the bearded persuasion,

It's not as so much as Rei winning the Rei/Tremayne fight; it's more of actually winning against the Dark Side in a *very* tight position. Falling into a hole was merely cinematic presentation, as high space operas go--you've read the effect.

To be honest... it really is tempting to give in to the Murderer's Edge when it offers you a hand in the middle of a very vicious fight against someone truly more skilled/talented than you. That's the whole point of the fight--does it make or break her control of the Dark Side?

(BTW, "Murderer's Edge" is also the name of the book series my brother is writing; the idea itself isn't that dissimilar to the Dark Side, except that it's just pure primal fury. Very handy if you're a mercenary stuck in a stupid war on the hind-end of the world, and led by the most arrogant men possible. It's over on Blackwyrm Publishing--www.blackwyrm.com--feel free to check it out, even buy it.)

I understand the metaphysics of it all, I was just pointing out that Rei didn't actually take out Roger and, further, that I think that it would be pretty cool to see Darth Vader destroy the pretender.

...It just occurred to me that not only is Kahm still around, so is Nadia.

Hm. What's that gun doing there, Mister Chekov?
