I like your comments on Palpatine's fashion, and I think you captured Anakin perfectly.

An author after my own heart: Palpatine, lavish clothing and a angry, sweaty Anakin... hee! Love it. ;~]

Wow. This is a great exploration of the central conflict in ROTS - the cold denial of the Jedi versus the vitality of the Sith. I especially like the rich description of the room, and of Palpatine's clothes. Great fic!
