Imagine going to private school with Palpatine and he makes your life a living hell for however long before being moved somewhere else. Years go by and you almost forget about him….until you turn on the holonet one day and find out he’s been appointed Senator?? Would that be fucked up or what?

Palpatine in this book.....has a sculpture in his office that he unleashes force lightning on when he gets angry. He keeps the sculpture specifically for this reason. It’s his special stress release sculpture. I shit you not.

“Jatz” music 🙄 come on Luceno call it by it’s real name.

Lord Plagueis’ toughest mission in this book: having to navigate a university campus with a shitty paper map.

10 years on and I’m still trying to process that scene where Palpatine flirted with the hostess…

The steak, “are you one of those men with a friend in every space port?”, “I’m always eager to make friends”, when she jokes about him being a Jedi, when she touches his chin, the fact that Kinman Doriana is just sitting there, “getting to know the galaxy’s women, he means”, “trails of conquests.” I’ve never been the same since.

I don’t think for a second that JJ Abrams or Chris Terrio read Darth Plagueis. But still, an interesting little parallel.

Darth Tenebrous being like “I’m glad I’m dying this way instead of being killed by my apprentice like all Sith masters are- hey wait a damn minute 🤬” is so funny
