*taps mic* anyone out there? I’ll be…well, I don’t know what I’m doing. Probably just throwing words on a page. If anyone wants to join me, you’re most welcome. @ethryndal @jessi-rae @dragon-snapper

Exactly. He isn’t an incredibly ideal character, but he is genuine, and I think that’s what sets him apart from each of the other Star Wars characters. His hardships didn’t begin until he was much older, giving him that sort of “spoiled brat” vibe. Until, of course, he discovered he has to save the world. That tends to mature a person. @ethryndal

*cough* @That_Writer_girl_99 *cough cough COUGH choke hack*
Okay fine, I see your point. And honestly, he’s probably the most realistic hero of all the teenage heroes, considering he represents the most normal way of life. Leia or Padme or Rey couldn’t whine, because they’d never known any other way of life than hardship. Luke, on the other…[Read more]

*snorts* I can’t say I see the resemblance.
Okay but seriously. You see my point, right? About Luke? @ethryndal

@That_writer_girl_99 Hey, don’t go cracking down on Grand Moff Tarkin. I once took a Star Wars character quiz, and apparently, I am he.

@ethryndal *pauses sobbing uncontrollably to glare scathingly at you* What is it with y’all and patting me head? Why must everyone pat my head? I cannot be consoled!

You know, I think what the two of you miss about Luke’s character is he’s…what, eighteen in the movie? Nineteen? Speaking as an eighteen year old myself, I think I would react similarly, if I was dropped into Luke’s situation.
Ugh, why can’t you guys dislike a more useless character? Lando Calrissian? Grand Moff Tarkin? Every single one of…[Read more]

@That_writer_girl_99 *pats your head reassuringly* Don’t worry, that’s the effect it has on all of us when Kate reveals her master plan to take over the world. It will pass.

@kate-flournoy An eleven book series? Excuse me while I go wallow in a pile of my own scrapped manuscripts and unwritten ideas. *disappears*

@Emma-Flournoy @That_writer_girl_99 Oh yeah, and I felt really awkward because sometimes I *cough* forget that not everyone shares my opinion, and had just said something really scathing about Luke…
*whinily* But I was going to go into Tosche station to pick up some new POWER converters!!!
*cough*

Elizabeth replied to the topic The Last Jedi in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
Haha @emma-flournoy now that you mention it, I think I do remember us talking about that. I was appalled to think someone could dislike Luke. To be honest, I still think it’s strange…

it will attract everyone like lead marbles to the middle of a concave floor.
@Emma-Flournoy And this right here is a prime example of why you need to write your own book. Did you just come up with that off the top of your head, or what? Girl, do you know how difficult good similes are to come up with (for me, at least)? Sheesh.

@aislinn-mollisong By the way, it’s pretty easy to make ebook covers on Canva. I did that once.

Leia was never my favorite character either. I didn’t hate her… but I didn’t love her, either. I doubt they will make a CGI Leia, though. Being such a legend that she is, I’m pretty sure the fanbase would revolt. (Spoiling Carrie Fisher’s memory and all…)
