If I could take another moment of your time? I was wondering if I could ask about my writing style. When I started writing 'Shrouded in Darkness', I tried to emulate your method for using a first person perspective, but don't know how successful I was. Do you have any advice on how one would match your style? Thanks.

In "Return from Exile" The line was what your Exile said regarding 'Peace' and 'Justice'

"When you heal the stone and your hearts..."

One line came came from that story, so I credited your name to that line. Is that alright with you?

I've got another message for you regarding your two cents...

I had asked you a long while ago about using your original content for a fiction, but it never came about. In another fiction likely on your agenda, I used one quote that came directly from "Return from Exile," but I credited you for it. If you should have objections to anything that might have been your original content, then make it known and I'll act upon it.

I didn't bring this up before because there was minimal content that didn't belong to me, but if you are suspicious of something, you should assume that it was originally your words.

Thanks for the future review.

How late do you intend to stay up tonight? I've recently been getting a normal sleep-cycle back and glad I didn't have to depend on Ambien again. I also miss the alcohol from a while back.

What exactly is this meeting tomorrow about? What are you going to talk about with your councilor?

I think you don't need to see a councilor if you already know the problem and the solution, but it's actually doing it that makes the difference. I know that I have to speak with strange women, drink beer, and get interested in sports... but I really don't want to deal with someone who isn't... you.

I have not interacted with many people who I really can relate to, but I feel a strong attachment with you and many of the people on this site. I think that I was so used to them at the end of summer that when the schoolyears started, they are not present so often.

I guess that I just have to do what I don't want to because it's necessary.

Yeah and when I spoke of you, she was the one who encouraged me to embrace this digital society because it's the best way for me to interact with others. It was what I 'wanted' to hear, but I knew it was a bad thing. There is only so much that can be done online that can't be done in person. I guess that the more dependent I become for online interaction, the more hollow life seems.

I've also not been able to take solace in anything, so I don't have any means of escape anymore. I guess that I am just lonely and unable to find anyone around who I like interacting with as much as you.

A councilor would likely tell me to stay away from network sites.

Twenty-one fold?! I'm so sorry to hear that. I regret that there is nothing that can be said that would make a difference, but if there is...

I have very little going on in my life, which is a bad thing. I am just fearing what lies in store for the future for everyone else. It's just so difficult to take joy in life knowing that many others are struggling to get by. I know that I shouldn't dwell on what I can't control, but I do.

I saw your latest photo on Deviantart... it was almost like I could see all your sadness in that simple expression. I was really wondering how you have been doing. I've been concerned about how your father's been coping or if something else has happened.

PS. where did you get seven-fold from? Why not ten?

Hello, Ms. Forumite.

I guess I don't really have anything worth saying, but I guess I just wanted to hear a familiar voice. I've just been down lately because every day, it's crisis this and corruption that. I've also gotten through some difficult exams and have little faith in my performance.

I annoyed another two moderators today... now that's 5 who hate me. If you think of yourself as mischievous, then you should read my thread in TOR. (which is the most viewed aside from the BIG topics at the top) Then you'll see how bipolar I am towards people.

Hello there. Have you heard that they are making a sad fake of KOTOR III?

Lucasarts has killed the franchise!

Anyway, how's your life?

I will have to get offline soon, but I'm glad I caught you before you fell asleep. I wish you a pleasant evening.

PS. love the English ascent in your posts!

I didn't want the game at all... I wanted the cliffhanger resolved. Now that they make something 300 years later, they are ensuring that K3 will never be done. I hated TFU because it was ANOTHER stalling measure on K3, but this means it's dead now.

It's not KOTOR, it's "The Old Republic". So it means that Revan and the Exile went off and died trying to fight the sith and all from the last games is gone.

I somehow suspected they created a conflict so well that they didn't have a dramatic way to solve it. I was right! God I hate being right!

My first break is in about a month.

This takes place 300 years after KOTOR II, so it just threw everything from the first two away and they claim that it's the third installment. TFU did not brush upon anything, but was a new thing completely. This is worse than KOTOR being in limbo for me.

I have an exam tomorrow and on Monday. I guess that I now don't have another distraction to worry about.

Hello there.

I've just been watching what's supposed to be the KOTOR III official announcement... I guess I have lost all interest in that now.

How's your life been going?

Not before 11:00 your time.

So I'll talk to you later. I hope your conflict with the friends will end peacefully.

Well I think you would have to grandstand or make a very overt act to show how serious you are about it. If you are dealing with people too quick to anger, then you should just try to ignore them completely. If they bother you, then remember that your focus is not hurting them back, but getting them to avoid bothering you.

I have a chapter on anger coming up... maybe that could help you then.

Very often, yes.

I understand the concepts of what causes anger, but often find people react too quickly to minor annoyances or push me like you described. Is that related to your current subject?

Alright, so what do you want to talk about?

I do know of that Steven Fry character. Where would he be?

If you need to work, then stop telling me and doing something else. If it would give you more motivation, I would log out log out now. At least, I've got the book I'm studying next to me.

Thanks for reading. I am not likely to write in reverse chapter by chapter, but only to get a target set for me to hit when Prior to Exile meets it. I guess that I have just found some inspiration at the wrong time, but I will try to keep a steady stream of updates.

PS. I still look forward to QFR to be updated.

Thank-you.

I just really think I have something with that bit of wording that could define the story that comes before it. That's why I wrote the ending first.

Your id is a little too important for your own good. I think we would both prefer that the other's superego take priority... where's ego in all this?

I guess that I just want to believe that I'm prepared for the exam and not study only to realize I'm not.

If I could just ask your eyes for a moment, I've rewritten the last two paragraphs of Chapter 40 to reflect the last 2 casualties of the Mandalorian Wars being truth and justice. What do you think of the poetic license to it? Thanks.

What research exactly? Does it involve studying the behavior of an idiot who should be preparing for an exam rather than distracting you?

I know that you're busy. I've just been putting a lot of things out and thought you might like the last scene with Bao-Dur. I am considering separating the threads with the 'peace time' and 'war time' halves or something.

If you need to research info or study, then I'll leave you to it.

Glad to hear that. How well did you do? 100%?

I have Bao-Dur introduced... departing from PTE! Isn't that a bit odd that you are introduced to a character by showing where he ends up?

If you have any feedback on that chapter(I don't mean post to the thread), I would greatly appreciate it. I want to know how best to leave off such an important character... of course that would mean having a story before that, right?
