I was asked to redeem Poe Dameron by a friend. Pilots, like surgeons, have to be arrogant and sure to do their jobs. And they have to keep being arrogant and sure even after they're wrong. But eventually the cost has to be felt. And there's no one more unsure than someone who was once very, very certain. I love the Force-Sensitive tree planted in a place where no Sensitives live. I love the idea of an object usually inanimate, possessed of feelings and awareness, watching over her boy. I love Shara and Kes and their love story. And last, I love playing with the idea of familiar things from home, and how they might make people feel.
