"with affection beaming in one eye and calculation shining out of the other"
"...And his thoughts moved quickly, now here, now there, darting in every possible direction and turning to every possible event, like light flickering in a bronze bowl as it is reflected by the sun, or its image the moon: now flying wide in all directions, now rising to catch the high vaults of the ceiling..." - Aeneid, 8.20
My fanfiction & art are unlocked for your perusal & everything else is under lock and key until such time as we become more formally acquainted, which I very much hope we will. :)

PALPATINE: Oh, this? Alderaani silk.
PADMÉ: I swear, just about every luxury item in vogue today is from Alderaan - it's a crime how they've cornered the market - that's why my wardrobe is %100 Naboo.
PALPATINE: My dear, when one is Supreme Chancellor one must embrace a larger view of fashion. Besides, all that quilting never suited me anyway...
Senator Amidala and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine at Theed Fashion Week, with Handmaiden Dormé and an anonymous Red Guard carrying their purchases. Because concept art doesn't draw itself. The Senator wears a dress from Palo's spring/summer collection and the Chancellor's robes were hand-sewn by Vivianné Westwookie. As no holocams were allowed at this exclusive event, our fabulous fashion correspondent drew the chic politicians in watercolour pencil.

Title: The End of the Festival ~ Part Two
Disclaimer: Own Star Wars, I do not!
Rating: PG
Characters: Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Naberrie, Palpatine, Sola Naberrie, Ryoo Naberrie, Pooja Naberrie, Jobal Naberrie, Ruwee Naberrie.
Word Count: 3,783
Summary: Anakin and Padmé tell their stories.
Author's Note: The story continues! It was really hard making up everyone's stories, so I'm interested to see what you guys think of the format. I'm worried there's too much analogy and not enough fanfiction, but hopefully you'll enjoy this chapter as much as the last. I wanted to give a Chaucer-like feel to it, which I hope doesn't feel too artificial.
( I believe we left off when Anakin was just about to begin his tale... )

Summary: Obi-Wan and his erstwhile padawan are overseeing the Supreme Chancellor's security on Naboo, when a certain Senator invites them home to spend the end of the festival with her family.
Author's Note: This story is pretty much canon compliant. I named the end of the Moon Festival after the figure of Death from Watership Down. This story has several parts which I'll post in the next couple of days. I use multiple POVs in this story, and mark when you're seeing through another character's eyes with a ~*~. You'll see through different characters' eyes in the next part.

Summary: An expansion on something I hinted at in another story awhile ago (points to whoever knows which story). It is astonishing what children think they can do against all evidence to the contrary.
