Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee thank you, Master! This is DELIGHTFUL! *happy gleeful dance of GLEEEEEE*

I don't even deserve a present after taking so long to comment on Alexis! I swear I woke up today thinking "I must post Part 2 before the ballgame today" and then I find this! <333333

So... I'll comment on this after I've commented on Alexis. ...and the song fic. Can't get TOO behind here ♥

Thank you!!!!

^_^ I'm so glad you like! It was a lot of fun to write and I was thinking about 'Need to Lie' with the structure, you know. As well as a number of other things from your tales.

LOL, seriously, I'm just thrilled you enjoy my writing so much! :)

In which I nearly quote your whole fic back to you:

Okay I'm on a roll here. I can rewind my DVR for the beginning of the game if I can comment here in the next half hour. And pfffft, less than 1000 words after those last 2? Piece of cake!

So THAT'S why you were rereading my stuff! (not like you need a particular reason, and it's not like there's an abundance of NEW to read... sigh) I immediately thought of "Need to Lie" when I got to the end and saw what structure you had chosen. Hehehe.

It titillates you, doesn’t it?

Yes, I suppose you could say that... oh wait, you're not talking to ME, are ya Palps. ;)

That devious, terrible Sith Lord beguiling an innocent Jedi.

Of course that's what they'll say! It's true!

You court me the same way you court danger: carelessly, perhaps even unconsciously.

Mmmmmm, yes, an astute observation.

you like to flatter yourself that you have the power to fascinate the most powerful man in the galaxy

Yes, well, he does, doesn't he? Of course he does! Though of course not in the ways young Anakin suspects.

Actually, I did think about breaking the fourth wall here, of making Palpatine address the viewer rather than Anakin. But then I decided that was an idea for another day. Besides, when I write something for YOU I like to make Palpatine say something at you. Like "why did you want this?" with 'Under the Covers'. :)

Palpatine -- the true one and not the cracky one that lives in my head -- can't have that. No wonder the poor man is so tormented. He needs the timing to be just so, and then this becomes a non-issue.*Nods* The only reason he would tolerate infidelity, I think, would be if he knew it would end badly or net him something - both in Padmé's case! He's usually more patient, but Anakin is teasing him so

P.S.

I find it interesting that the NIN song you mention here is one that my Palpatine's Anakin-mun once chose as a theme song for them. How did you know? ♥

Re: P.S.

[ansketil_rose]

I AM OMNISCIENT!

♥

Or I just got lucky with my youtube playlist. I leave the truth up to you.

Re: P.S.

[luminations]

Clearly the answer is that you are omniscient! (and omnipotent... *bows to your power*)

Can't resist commenting because I loved this fic …

Especially the dissonance in their POVs.

[ansketil_rose]

Thank you! I love POV shifts. I'm playing with them a lot in my Harry Potter fanfiction. There's something wonderful about turning things on their heads one can only do with POV change.
