(I hope you don't mknd me reviewing this old thing, but I always saw Dustil as rather flat and was intrigued by learning more about him.) You've got a very complete character study here. I love "It was easy to hate someone you barely knew but were supposed to feel something for." and Dustil's vengeful, rather crafty motive for joining the Sith.

Oh, I liked this very much! I always wondered about how Carth and Dustil would reunite and this story was very believable! Good job!

I absolutely loved that! Beautifully written. They really did need to have some kind of conversation. The way this is written I imagine it could have happened just like this. Well done!

What an incredibly well-written story! Absolutely fantastic! The dialogue between the two of them is amazing, and I can't help but feel that their interactions is nearly spot on to how they would act during their reunion.

It's interesting to get some of the story from Dustil's perspective, and you flawlessly connect it with the storyline.

I could practically hear Carth and Dustil's voices! Well done!

Excellent insight into Dustil's character. This puts a really smart perspective into what little history we know of him--I liked the contrast between how smart and capable you made him versus the very teenaged tendancies to angst and cling to spite and bitterness regarding his father. And I liked that you didn't let that one lunch fix all the problems in their relationship. It was open-ended. No miracle quick fix.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Great, great job!

Heya. I'd like to make a general comment first...

Come back. I miss all the writers from the summer months--even though I'm one of the many who've vanished since. Please don't fade away; it's depressing when one day long and far beyond imagining to see that the most recent update was years ago.

As for the story itself? I enjoy it. The elaboration of Dustil's past is very..touching, I think. But but--I've always found that 'showing' a tale beats out 'telling' it. And so I'd like to further endeavor you to return and illustrate the tenderness that was the story of Dustil and Selene!

I'm glad I ran across this, finally a story about Dustil reuniting with Carth that doesn't dwell on the abstract light side/dark side issue. Instead you focused on the character motivations and it all came out very plausible.
It's also nice that Dustil is the rational one willing to let go (or more so than Carth at least), instead of the whiny teenager.

I bet you've gotten this before, but you did a beautiful characterization of Dustil. He was described so well, and not quite the same as is typical for our favorite little angst muffin. All the same, the fic turned out very nicely and Dustil and Carth's relationship and characters were right on. Great work. :)

Nice. Gives me inspiration for how to write Dustil in the fanfic I'm working on.

Interesting take on Dustil: he is usually portrayed as the angsty angry kid we see at Korriban...and with good reason! You have given him a level of maturity that at times surpasses that of his father. I enjoyed seeing this different Dustil, you made a decent case for his being this way.

This was a very nice introspective piece. I like how you wrote Dustil's inner workings and made him blossom as a character.

This was really good! You did an excellent jobe in portraying Dustil's character... I like the fact that you added to his character, such as his love for history and whatnot. Beautiful work! Good writing!

I like how this one didn't end in hugs and tears and "I love you, Dad. I love you too, son." The ambiguity is nice and it is clever that one conversation doesn't make everything all right again, but is just a start. Nice work.
