Reviews for The Finer Shades of Why
pronker chapter 2 . 3/20/2010
Another good story to enjoy from you. I think that the shock of the clones' betrayal would resonate, U or AU, but more pressing than that is the knowledge that there aren't Jedi around to save them. Liking Dooku's intelligence not being drowned by his arrogance; what sort of leader will he make for the Republic/Empire? Will it be a political takeover for Dooku, as it's a little difficult to think of him as pulling strings from the inside; whatever, looking forward to this story.

Very interesting start! Looking forward to more of this AU. Thanks for sharing!

They're all right! Yes! Well, Obi-Wans' not dead, so I guess that ounts as being 'all right.' I hope other Jedi survived. Yes, Anakin, I think Obi-Wan will forgive you. Oh God, Padme...She'll think Anakin died, won't she? Very good!
Elenothar chapter 2 . 3/20/2010
Uh - oh. Now they're stuck on some planet with their allies hunting them...not good. I guess the two of them just don't manage without getting into trouble continuesly ;)

Somehow it always seems to be Obi-Wan who's hurt, poor man.

Can I just say, before I start the review, that you are completely amazing?

XD

Ahem. Yes. Well, Dooku I can imagine would be a tricky character to write, but you had him down very well. Though I confess, I do much prefer reading your Obi-Wan, who might I say you have absolutely perfect.

This chapter is absolutely amazing. Your style, your characterisations - I am so in awe of your talent. Obi-Wan's emotions and thoughts are so resonating with the reader. You have a way of making me breathless with those action scenes. You write so well from the present tense - it's always been a struggle for me, and you make it seem so effortless.

And oh Gods, this part was so incredible:

*

"Pull up a little more," he hears Anakin shout, and he does, even if he thinks his angle is already right, because Anakin is the better pilot, and Obi-Wan trusts him with his life, even now, he does, he does, he does—

*

I wish I could write like you.

Anakin's part was just as amazing. You write both characters so well, though I confess I do prefer Obi-Wan. XD Anakin's raw fear for Obi-Wan says so much about the intense brotherly bond they share. When Anakin was listening to Obi-Wan's heart beat, I was tearing up. I don't know how you do it, but it seems no matter which medium you use (YouTube or fanfiction) you have that uncanny ability to involve me so deeply into the story that I am *that* affected.

Anyway, thank you so much for writing this, and I can't wait for the next chapter! (Please don't keep me waiting too long...? XD)

Well, this is intersting. Sidious, dead? Dooku, the possible new Emperor? Jedi dead? Wow, this is really good. Can't wait for more!

SVCrystalGreen chapter 1 . 3/17/2010
Intriguing start! You most certainly have my attention!
asdfqwert chapter 1 . 3/17/2010
OH MY GOD YES!

This looks to be the start of something incredible. When I saw that you'd started something new you have no idea how excited I got. XD You've captured Dooku perfecly. I know this is only the prologue but it's fantastic in its own right, and I cannot wait to read more.

Can't wait for the next update!
