My creative outlet du jour oscillates between drawing and writing, and today was a drawing sort of day. Yes, I know her braids should probably be tighter but I definitely have a problem when it comes to drawing hair in that I don't know how to stop, haha.

ATLAS OF THE GFFA ⇛ HAPES

↳ [Hapes System; Hapes Cluster; the Inner Rim]

Located near the center of the Hapes Cluster, Hapes was the homeworld of the Hapans, a near-Human race known for their beauty, and the administrative capital of the Hapes Consortium. Surrounded by shimmering nebulae, and with seven moons in the sky after sunset, Hapes never knew the darkness of true night, and the Hapan people had relatively poor night-vision. Only a few small, neat cities were necessary to cater for the needs of the state bureaucracy and the Consortium's commercial and legal institutions, and much of the planet was an unspoiled wilderness of broad oceans, snow-peaked mountains and lush primeval forest, where tightly-controlled commercial fisheries and game-preserves were the major focus of Hapan activity.

The DND adventure continues! Anyway, after a long pause of not posting, here are Alyss, Kaann, Dirssa and Lee-Lu in their respective formal clothes inspired by traditional formals clothing of their home planets and their own fashion preferences.

“But wait!”, you might say, “isn't Dirssa from the Ascen---!?” Why yes, yes he is! :D But the Black Sun Syndicate who invited them to dinner doesn't know it. Or do they?

Alright, so I've been collecting books, one of the ones I've recently acquired was Courtship of Princess Leia and so I've been reading it. I've been enjoying it a lot, there's some drama but overall it's fun and interesting. Anyway, I decided to write out my thoughts after each chapter. I'm currently reading chapter 8, so here's the first 7 chapters.

Chapter 1: The Hapans seem an interesting people. Dang they're pulling all the stops for this. Oh, there's music, what a show. Leia counted all 62 the number of gifts that they gave her prior to the last one? Oh no, why's there a man coming out. Oh no, why does the queen mother want her son to marry Leia of all people? Leia has been to Hapes before? Oh poor Han... WHY DO YOU HAVE TO POUR THE SALT IN HIS WOUND MOTHMA. HAN'S ALREADY GETTING A LITTLE WORRIED AS IS.

Chapter 2: Huh, what's Luke doing in an abandoned cave? Aw... He was looking for surviving Jedi... Oh... He was wanting to know the Jedi's history and how they were taught... The Jedi he was looking for was protecting the Jedi archive? And Palpy had all the data cells destroyed... R2 is trying his best to help. There's one that was missed? Whoop whoop! What's the recording say? Huh, a bunch of Jedi are giving reports on their missions to the Jedi council. Oh, Yoda is talking. People were killed in Dathomir? Knowing the Nightsisters, that's hardly surprised. Of course there's no record of Dathomir. Luke's thinking it might have been a planet devastated by the clone wars. Now I'm thinking back to Grievous and f the separatists invading the Dathomir and killing the Nightsisters. Ooh, Luke's getting a vision of Dathomir. The description seems about right.

Chapter 3: Leia hasn't said yes... But also not no... And she's inviting this Isolder for dinner... Han has flex to fix up the Millennium Falcon. Oh no, they got in a fight. Now they're talking about how the war feels like it'll never end. Aw... Leia said "-then we'll fight for our children"... Oh, Han is calling her out, Leia does kinda seem to have a low for the worlds of Hapes. Ooh, it's because of homesickness. There's other Alderaanians? Of course there would be... It was a whole planet. Why wouldn't there be refugees? Wait, you're telling me that she won't be able to keep ANY of the other 62 gifts she was given in chapter 1 if she doesn't marry Isolder? That sucks. Han may be a tad paranoid, but I honestly can't say I'm mad at him. Leia was there to invite him to dinner with her and Isolder? Oh, Han POV. Horm is seriously catching so many insults. We're spending so much time doing little dogs at him about his weight. Uh oh, Isolder is there. Oooooh, Han's got no filter today. Isolder has an odd accent with elongated vowel inflection? Have no idea what that sounds like, he gets to have a vague nothing accent. Huh, Isolder isn't mad? Oh, shoot, never mind, this man is serious about shooting his shot with Leia and trying to get Han to leave. The prince was a privateer?

Chapter 4: I'm trying so hard to imagine Han in formal wear and I'm not sure that it's possible. Ok, I'm pretty sure Horm is seriously wanting Leia married to Isolder, he keeps trying to get Han to tell her what he said to the prince. Huh, Isolder is mildly steering away from that... Wait, the prince was a pirate for 2 years? He had a brother avenged? So Hapes was originally ruled by pirates who had a thing for kidnapping beautiful women and taking them to Hapes, ergonwhy apparently everyone from that planet is ridiculously beautiful. Very uncomfortable the moment I think at all about that, but moving on. Oh good, the Jedi defeated those pirates and Hapes was just forgotten so the women there decided they'd take charge of their own destiny and never allow a man to control them which was why they had the queen mother as ruler who was said to have no equal in the Hapan language. Very interesting. I was wondering about that. Oh, the prince is the one who wanted to marry Leia specifically? Ok, now that's making more sense. Aw... Leia can't sleep. Yeah, go talk to Luke. Oh my goodness, Leia said it was an emergency so I guess Luke must have bolted because it says he was breathless when he asked what happened. Aw, he's trying to help and not make her feel bad about calling him about an "emergency". Luke's meeting up with her 3 days. Aw, Han's apologizing, ok the "I ended up going to one of the ship's galleys in the middle of the night, looking for something tastier to eat" did make me laugh- Crap, they're fighting again. NO DON'T SAY YOU NEED SOME SPACE. Horm is totally proving Han so right about people talking about Leia as if she already decided she'd marry Isolder. Oh Han, he's going to some shady places to get a planet for Leia's people... The was this is playing out is now making that decision make sense and seen even more desperate. Oof, there's an assassination order for someone? Why does the prince's guard think the order isn't referring to Leia? Oh, Isolder has an aunt? AND he's the last heir of his mother? Oh I see... Fair enough.

Chapter 5: Oh, I'm getting to see how Han gets a planet? Huh, interesting rules for pazaak, gonna have to pocket that in case I need it. Ok, cool, he won. Dathomir is up for grabs? Dang, well at least Han is getting the high stakes games he was looking for. Sweet! Han won Dathomir and is telling Leia! She's happy and he's happy. It's too early for something to not go wrong here. Ah... It's in imperial warlord Zsinj's territory (don't ask me how it's supposed to be pronounced). Poor Han... Leia wants to travel to the underworld of Coruscant and Isolder wants to come with her. Oh don't look at each other like that. Thank goodness Horm is there to kill the mood. Oh shoot, it's an assassination attempt. And the assassin speaks the same language as Isolder? Give Leia some space Isolder, she's trying to push- NOOOOOO... STOP KISSING. THINK ABOUT HAN. NO DON'T GO CHECK OUT HAPES WITH THIS MAN. PLEEEASE.

Chapter 6: Oh no, Han's drunk. Aw, C3P0 is trying to help. Aw... He wants to prove himself. Oh my goodness, I can't with these random bystanders talking. They're just too much. The women especially. SOOOOO thirsty for Isolder. And poor Han can't catch a break. Ok, so now they're all at that one special gathering of Alderaanians to discuss Leia's and Isolder's wedding (despite no agreement being made yet). Oh, C3P0 wants to talk? Oh boy, I can't wait to see the mess. Yeah, he supports the Han x Leia ship. Dang it Horm, I know you're like used to thinking of marriage as a political thing, but- HAN'S KING OF CORELLIA? Ok, he's heir to that title, BUT STILL!!!! HOW???? Thank you C3P0, thank you for explaining how you found this information and how the bloodline traces to Han. Oh shoot, Han doesn't look happy about this reveal. He already knew, didn't he? And now he's embarrassed? Wait, his grandfather was a notorious pirate and king pin? Ah... That's not great for people taking him seriously. Oh my goodness the sass and the T spilling, C3P0 is coming through to wreak unintended havoc and leaving now survivors.

"I am just an ignorant droid and confess that I don't really understand how the actions of one's ancestors enhance our detract from one's respectability. Such concepts are beyond the ability of a model AA-One Verbobrain to process. But since Dalla Suul's illegitimate daughter was [Horm's] mother, I expect that you are infinitely more familiar with the logic of the arguments than I am."

Chapter 7: Hm.... Don't like Leia and Isolder spending time together like this. Of course Horm is calling to tell them that she's off duty for the next few months and that Han has been assigned to deal with the same problem that she was supposed to handle. Man is trying to keep them away from each other. And Leia was supposed to meet up with Luke on Rosche. Aw... Han's so sad. Oh, he quit? Great, guess this is also when he quits being a general like it was mentioned in Heir to the Empire (though never specified beyond that he did some time ago). So he's got himself a plan to get to Dathomir. Not unreasonable to ask Leia to come, I mean she DID agree to go to Hapes with Isolder, I don't see any reason- oh no, Han is loosing it. This- and he's kidnapped her. Oh shoot, Han is going to have to watch out for the queen mother's ships. Because this is a scenario where it is really more ideal that Isolder finds him before his mother does. At least the prince apparently has no intention of killing him. I hope.
