The temptation is strong...

...

:P

*headtilts* Okay, I think I missed something.

"Anakin resisted the urge to stick out his tongue, which would be rude..."

Anakin was strong enough... I wasn't. *grin*

[persephone_kore]

Oh! Okay, sorry, just failed to connect. Hee.

Wow what a fresh and unique perspective. Dooku taking Anakin, this ought to be interesting, and I doubt Dooku cares so much about bending the rules, under his tutelage, Anakin might very well thrive. You've definitely got me hooked, really excited to see where this will go. Is this story going to be later posted to the boards?

[persephone_kore]

The story is posted to the boards too -- actually a bit sooner than I got it up here. :)

Dooku's perspective on rules is an interesting one. He is willing to bend them when it suits... or to dig in his heels on founding principles and/or traditions that are not perfectly in line with current custom, if that's more convenient. ;) On the other hand, he later winds up having to explain some of them to Anakin that he really isn't all that crazy about himself.

[persephone_kore]

Yay!

Ooooooh, what an intriguing premise. A good opening, and I can't wait to find out where you go with this.

[persephone_kore]

Thanks! We've had some fun with it.

I just found this, and this is definitely a great hook and a great premise for a story. I can't wait for more!
