 Smoltenica 2008-04-12 . chapter 1Wow. No matter how often I read your works, I'm always awed by the atmosphere you evoke. The fluidity of your phrases melds so well with Shaak Ti's flow of consciousness.
Only one minor quibble- "The Order no longer existed. She was perhaps the first being in the galaxy to realize this.
Shaak Ti does not indulge in regret."
- The change in tenses seems a little abrupt. Contextually, it makes sense, but to my Plebeian tastes it felt uncomfortable. |
 Korgeta 2008-03-29 . chapter 1I thought this was brilliant, excellent detail and struture, shaak ti is drawn out as she should be. The only pik (a small one) is the description of the sabre styles: Makashi etc. There wan't any mention in how each style really differs espacilly to those who seen the movies and noted that there wern't really that many styles of combat they played out (to exception to windu v sidious) overall it was brilliant. |
 Tierney Beckett 2008-03-24 . chapter 1Right! A review! And none too soon, really. Shame on me.
Thanks for the plug, by the way. Most appreciated. :-)
Again, your knowledge of the Star Wars universe far surpasses mine. I bow before your superior intellect, Master. And all that stuff.
I really like what you've done with Shaak Ti here. I particularly like the way she addressed Anakin sneaking up on her.
“Anakin, Anakin,” she chided as if she were correcting a wayward Padawan. “I can feel the footsteps of the clones that you've lead here, I can taste your heartbeats. Accord me a little more respect than that – don't think you can sneak up on me.”
Oh, I love that. Just perfect. The recurring statement that the Order is already dead, that the people being killed are merely former members particularly intrigues me. I had never thought about it in those terms before, but it certainly makes sense.
I know, I know. If I'd stop to think once in a while, I might see these things for myself. But this is why I keep you around. To point out what I miss. Right?
As I stated before, I'll be directing people here when I post the next chapter of SCMG. Again, you are the King of Fanfiction! And Shaak Ti is, indeed, ace. The world needs more WELL-WRITTEN Shaak Ti fics. |
