This Year's Model of Humanity

There's a generational leap between Episode Three and Episode Four -- I believe that nineteen years is the most common figure used. This leap enables us to go from the line of Obi-Wan-Anakin-Padme to the triangle of Han/Leia/Luke.

Hmm. Not entirely sure where I'm going with this, but I wanted to set down some of the thoughts that I'm having on the saga. All of this very much informs my characterization choices in stories, as well, if that is of interest.

A note or two about this fic -- it's a lot bigger than I thought it was when I started it. It's still going to the same place, but it's become much more complex, and for a very simple reason. As conceived, it was from just two points of view, Anakin and Luke. But very early on, I realized that I wanted to give voice to the other characters as well. And they complicated things (also, as noted earlier, I thought it was going to be a PG-13 rated fic at the most, simply because I figured on primarily following Luke's point of view, and we all see how that turned out). So, this fic is a curious mix of the planned and the off-the-cuff, and will likely continue to be so.

Author's Notes: So, in an attempt to be accurate with lightsaber-ness, I looked it up, saw the whole 'forms used in combat' thing and said, "Right, I'll use those when Lucas does". But I did really like one of the names of the forms, so I nicked it.

Love is checking a recs journal for new stuff and seeing your story recced on there. Seriously, it's with the good vibes (though there is the not-so-hidden longing for that person to feedback, but being recced is a bit like getting secret feedback, so there's a balance).
