*fans self* Being calm and detached is indeed overrated if it doesn't lead to such hot scenes. :)
I love how they tried to talk through it at first. :)
> Accepting how I feel is at the heart of everything.
Loved this line.
And it's good Luke sorted it out with Artoo.
> allowing the endlessly spinning asteroids to cast their twisting, dark shadows across the walls.
That's a priceless image!
And of course you didn't resist shaking the reader thoroughly one last time when Danu woke them in the middle of the night. :)
Great story!!

Well, as you know, I don't go in for calm and detached that much with Luke, unless he's doing it as a deliberate act :D. Calm, maybe, but never detached (in my mind!).

Accepting how I feel is at the heart of everything.

I'm so glad you picked out that line, because really, I feel that this is what the whole story is about :) :). It just took me 23 chapters and a whole lot of waffle to get to the point!

It's just as simple as trusting his feelings, and accepting them. He doesn't need to do more because in his heart he already knows what is right and what is wrong. He doesn't need rules, or solitude, or to live in fear of what might happen if he falters.

But I think this needs to happen for him, and for Leia, and the sooner the better now. It's the final act in coming out from under the burden of secrecy, and ultimately it will be liberating, despite the obvious problems ( ... )
