Every time I see people musing about wanting Luke and/or Leia to find PT era footage on Artoo I just have this visceral reaction and then some sweet summer child learns about the bug sex trilogy

Denning sure did make a choice

I mean Denning was. Denning was like... He was trying so hard to write an edgy book where anyone can die that he tried to kill a guy who was already dead

Choices were made

I keep forgetting about the bug sex trilogy until someone mentions it

and I say this as an unrepentant monster fucker

my brain does not want to acknowledge this exists unless someone actively mentions it where I can see it

The only joy those books ever brought me is other people's reactions to their existence

WingsOfCover : that's how i feel

Fuck Dark Nest.

Not literally.

fucking was the problem

That series literally turned me off of SW until Solo came out.

the only reason I kept going was the next book was by Aaron Allston

they kept having him exactly often enough to remind me I like Star wars

Yeah... not even Allston could fix the NJO after that for me.
