Title: Republic Commando: Burdens
Timeline: Clone Wars (21 BBY or something)
Characters: Sigma Squad (Oni, Morj, Gev, and Jatne), Amiel (Padawan), Signe (Master), Avan (Knight), Captain Harsh (ARC Trooper), Amyr and Rem (Mandalorians), Jatne and Tracyn (their son and daughter). There are more but they're listed in my profile!
Genre: Drama primarily.
Plot/Summary: Sigma Squad has more issues than the Republic, and working with an annoying Padawan and her unsure Master only complicate things more. The commandos have to grapple with the problems of their past and reconcile the problems of their present while Amiel and Signe confront their own weaknesses. I really wish I could make it sound more interesting.

Part one is comprised of very, very short stories to set up the characters and their backgrounds, part two follows a plot, and part three is trying to wrap some things up. I plan on writing a separate Order 66 story!

"Don't carry burdens you don't have to."

I really appreciate critical reviews. I mean, tear it apart. I know a lot of you are already reading it, and for that I am grateful. You guys rock!

Title: Order 66: Chances
Timeline: Clone Wars (21 BBY or something)
(SPOILERS!) Characters:
Sigma Squad (Sprocket, Morj, Splinter, and Jatne), Amiel (Padawan), Signe (Master), Avan (Knight), Captain Harsh (ARC Trooper), Amyr and Rem (Mandalorians), Jatne and Tracyn (their son and daughter). There are more but they're listed in my profile!
Genre: Drama/Adventure
Plot/Summary: Chancellor Palpatine goes on a power trip and clones try to kill Jedi who try to kill them back. You know the drill.

"Has the Chancellor had the commander's calls screened for the past three months? No!"

Title: Unfold
Timeline: Rise of the Empire (17 BBY or something)
Characters: Jatne Meshkad (Mandalorian), Tracyn (his little sister), the rest of the Meshkad clan, a special surprise clone, Teroch Galaar (Jatne's Mando bff), Nola Tanostell (Imperial pharmacy intern), and others!
Genre: Adventure. Hopefully.
Plot/Summary: Jatne's parents left him for ten years to train clones on Kamino. Naturally, he's a little messed up about it. This is a story about navigating through early adulthood, relationships, and family. That's all I got so far, at least!

"I was her bodyguard. I did my job. She wanted the extra bit."

Title: Collision Theories
Timeline: Old Republic
Characters: Cal Kimbli, Row Sejwic, Noa Briggs (and more to come once they have names)
Genre: Adventure/Romance
Plot/Summary: Cal was once a quiet office clerk before she was assigned to be part of the investigation team for the murder of a Jedi. After a Sith tracks her down and tries to kill her, she is continually hunted, putting herself and her allies at risk.

"Thanks. I can't say it enough. You really saved me back there."

"I've got enough thanks remembering that helpless look on your face when you were clinging to me."

*Eagerly awaits Chances* Like, for SERIOUS.

*Snerk* That is such an awesome description...

Indeed. Chances sounds like a Smallville episode without the suck.

Good luck on your next chapter by the way!

BUMP!

Chapter 12: Machines has been posted, thus completing BURDENS!

Whooph, that was a ride. It's such a relief to be done with this story! :) I've been working on it since October!

Now, onto Order 66... *evil scheming laughter*

Oh my god it's over with? I have to go read it.

BUMP!

UNFOLD is posted!

This story is all about Jatne Meshkad and the aftermath of the Clone Wars! It stars Mandalorians.

Rem put the pot of water over the stove and ran his hand over his hair. "So you slept with the Senator, Jatne? Is that it?"

"Way to jump to conclusions, Dad!" Jatne was about ready to jump back in his ship and find a hotel to stay in rather than face the ridicule of his father.

"Well?"

"I caught them sleeping together!" Tracyn said. Her brother and father stared at her with open mouths. "Jatne was all cuddling her, and she was all snuggly with him!" Tracyn hugged herself and made kissing noises to demonstrate.

Jatne and Rem stared at Tracyn for a moment, both seeming relieved that she didn't catch the euphemism. Then Jatne stiffened and looked at his father, who returned his gaze with a hard glare. "That's not what you were paid to do."

"I was her bodyguard. I did my job. She wanted the extra bit."

Rem let out a heavy sigh and went to the cupboard, taking out various jars of spices and slabs of preserved meat. "Us Meshkads," he said, a grin crossing his face, "we're hard to resist."

Just got half-way in and I can already say that I like this very, very much! Since I'm not done reading I can't spoil it for anyone so I'll just point out how great your writing is in this one. It was great in "Burdens" but I wasn't all that into all the characters. It's good to just focus on a few at a time! This is sweet and easy to read. Thank you

Thanks Daennika!

All right. It's up. ORDER 66: CHANCES!!11one


A transmission beeped on Captain Harsh's com. The red-painted ARC Trooper turned his back on his Jedi partner as he sat at a console re-submitting lost data and checking the archives for damage. "Harsh, I'm on a roll. Take it outside please?"

"Of course." Harsh left the room in two long strides and stood outside of the open doorway to answer the transmission. A blue hologram of a hooded figure appeared.

"Execute Order 66," Chancellor Palpatine said.

"Yep," said Harsh, turning off his com. He put it back on his belt. He let his arms drop to his sides.

Turning around, Harsh walked into the room and took in everything. Jedi Knight Avan Kaden had his back to the door and he was checking his datapad and a console against the wall. Harsh strode up behind him and didn't wait. He grabbed the back of the Jedi's head and slammed it into the wall before throwing him down on the floor. The ARC Trooper took out his pistol, aimed, and fired.

Review of newest Chances chapter (also posted on FF.net):

"Any specialties?" "Not getting killed."

That was hilarious.

I really enjoyed the part with Slon and Naro duking it out over what to do about Amiel. It was realistically approached and touching in the way brothers hitting brothers could only be. It was great how Naro kept yelling at her to get back in her room, it was very desperate. I'm glad you gave him a reason as to why he was defending her.

GAH; why did you have to end the chapter there? I impatiently yet politely ask you to hurry and write the next one.

Thanks Mems! Can I call you Mems? :p And I think I replied to your review on FF.net. But now I can't remember.

Anyway. With nothing short of a minor breakdown last night, I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be able to update my stories until later next week at the earliest. It's the end of the semester and naturally things are busy, and I haven't even had a chance to outline my chapters.

No worries though--I have all the plots in my head! Just not the time to write them and make them work. I'm thinking even if I can get one chapter up after next week, it will be my last update before May when school is out. Then I'll have lots of time.

Thanks for sticking with me. :3

Mems is swell. And, even though I want more of your story, no rush on it! I understand completely; I had the end of a quarter last week plus my ACT and coming up is my MCA grad test.

Order 66: Chances chapter TWO is uuuuup! Finally.

"I've seen you use the Force to protect me, my brothers, even an enemy of your kind--a Mandalorian. You and I are both alive today because of it. I think 'ironic' is the adjective I'm looking for."

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNN.

Lol the anthem for Order 66, Everybody's Changing by Keane.

I read it.

I didn't know Clayne had his own ship. That's cool.

Yeah I gave him one for his birfday. Is that cool? :3 I'm like his fun aunt!

And thanks for the review!

I wanted to sleep early, and then I decided to catch up.

I just finished reading Burdens again, and let me say: amazing. I absolutely love the characterizations (my favorite happens to be Morj). I also enjoyed the shorts moved along by dialogue, it really shows the depth of personality between characters.

Soo yes. I hadn't realized how much love you meant when you say A Cornucopia of Loooove, but surprisingly I enjoyed it. It wasn't too heavy on the lovey-dovey fluff, keeping an even balance with story, general drama and war-time-combat. Groovy, says I.
