Re: Twilight of the Force

Elena started at the sound of Rossi's voice, she hadn't heard the Kessurian enter the cargo hold beside Heval. She quickly wiped her eyes with her hands and put a smile on her face. "Hey," she said, hopping down from atop a large crate. She knelt to pet Heval, avoiding direct eye contact w...

Re: Twilight of the Force

The door opened up onto a long corridor. Elena led the way down the length of it, past one empty room after another. The structure was expansive, some kind of abandoned industrial plant. Just looking around it was hard to tell what they made here, but it was clear no one was making use of it anymore...

Re: Twilight of the Force

Judging by how far they'd traveled underground that put them an uncomfortable distance away from the tram back to the sta...

Re: Twilight of the Force

Elena held up a blouse Rossi had handed her. It was frilly, made of a lightweight fabric similar to silk and it was pink. She eyed the garment suspiciously. Surely the Kessurian wasn't planning on buying this for her, right? And just how many garments was she planning to buy, anyway? This was the si...

She crossed the room over to where her belongings were, her lightsaber, a Westar 35 and the small shoulder bag she carried. She reached for the bag first, undoing the clas...

Eventually, she settled on not saying anything and pointed at a nearby stool. “Sit.” The kid di...

As a rule, I give shows (not just Star Wars) as much benefit of the doubt as possible.

I think the show accomplished that, ev...
