The thing that I feared would happen appears to have happened. All I can say is...f***k!<--that's as close as I get to swearing, folks.
*siiigh* To say I'm seriously disappointed is an understatement. What the hell were the authors thinking when they came up with this scenario? I mean, I really like Jacen (AKA the 'Playboy of the SWU' due to the fact that roughly six different women have fallen in love with or felt a strong attraction to him. One of whom he had a child with. Not that I can necessarily blame them *points to her icon*).
Anyway, I do know that the Sith return in the 'Legacy of the Force' comic book series, but since it appears they were in existence before they recruited Jacen, why the hell did they have to play this card. I mean, I know they showed him 'vision of the devastating future' et al, but these are Sith. They lie and manipulate to get what they want. I mean, look at Palpy for Pete's sake! Ohhh, and what a coup to round up the grandson of Darth Vader.
All I can hope is that this is perhaps a ruse on Jacen's part. Kinda like the end of 'Angel' when Angel infiltrated the Circle of the Black Thorn in order to eventually destroy them. I mean, due to the comic series, it appears that the Sith aren't destroyed, but I'm still hoping for some sort of miracle, perhaps? I mean, maybe Jacen'll come to his senses before he fully completes the transition. What will happen to his relationships with his family? Tenel Ka? His daughter for Pete's sake? What will happen to the Solo bloodline? I mean, I know there's still Jaina, but she's not going to continue the Solo name once (and if) she gets married (although Zekk doesn't exactly have a last name. A-hem). What happened to the Jacen I used to know? The joke-cracking, animal-loving, adventure-seeking one?
I also kind of wonder if there's going to be a showdown between Luke and Jacen a lá Obi Wan and Anakin (although, admittedly, that fight between them kicked ass)?
Ooohh, how I weep for the future...
Sorry about my little rant, there. It's just I sort of get emotionally invested in certain characters I feel I've grown up with. Feel free to skip if you want to.
In other news, mom and I plan on going out to dinner with a friend of ours. The same friend from last week, actually that I missed going out with due to the ill-timed 'illness.' I think I'm gonna enjoy myself. I always like hanging out with this friend because she makes me laugh.
And, if the rain from Alberto lets up, I plan on working on a layout for someone at some point.
Trivia of the day: "Court bouillon" is a broth made by cooking various vegetables and herbs, traditionally used for poaching fish, seafood, or vegetables.
