solution?
I've got my first Jecht sphere scene written, and I think it came out well. The only catch? I didn't keep the dialog word-for-word the same. It captures the spirit of the scene, and many lines are intact, but I changed a few wordings and added others. IMHO, the changes actually improve the scene. But I do find myself wondering what the reaction will be, if any.
I wonder if people will notice if I don't put it in an author's note? I will mention it, though, because I don't want people to think that I don't know I've written it differently.
Finally went to see Episode III last night. It was pretty good, although I thought the character development was rushed -- Anakin turned to evil much too quickly for my taste. The trilogy would have been much improved, I think, if Lucas had combined the first two movies into one and spread this movie out over two, making Anakin's descent into the dark side less abrupt.
As I was watching, my mind drew all kinds of fascinating parallels between Anakin and the way I've written Auron. Both men are fighters who belong to a religious order, both are in love but need to hide their relationship, both are torn between love and duty. But in the end, they choose differently. Auron chooses duty every time (Kera is right about him in that respect, no matter how much he may protest), whereas in the end Anakin turns his back on the Jedi for the sake of love. "He's the anti-Auron!" I found myself thinking during his final confrontation with Padme and fight with Obi-Wan.
