JACEN

Jacen.
I scarcely dare to whisper around you, Jacen. You'd probably hear me, and then your family would think there might be something wrong with you, again. You're so quiet… gentle…
Why'd you give up your pets? You used to love them so. Just because you've grown up doesn't mean you can't keep animals… does it? My sister kept a pitten when she was on Alderaan. Organa gave one of its cubs to your mother, who named it AT-AV, or All-Terrain Attack Vehicle. I liked that pitten.
I never would have touched it, though. I would've never been in the same room as it—it would've hurt me! All animals did. That was why my sister made herself forget about her Force abilities. She was the one to send the garden snake to me.
She'd only meant to scare me—really. But she underestimated how much I aggrevate animals' attack instinct. As if it was a boa, it curled around my neck…
Next thing I knew, I was looking at my limp blue self, my sister screaming and kicking the garden snake off my neck. "Sis?" I asked.
She'd looked around wildly before suddenly spotting me. She burst out crying. "I didn't mean to! Master Thracia!" She ran off, sounding hysterical, while I wondered what the problem was. I didn't hurt anymore.
When the family came out and stared teary-eyed at me, I still didn't get it. Even the visiting Jedi Master looked upset. My still-living grandfather Naberrie looked confused.
"What is everyone staring at?"
"Sola! Find Padmé, quick!" Mom ordered, kneeling beside my body. "Don't let her hurt herself."
"She did this?"
"Angry. Scare me," I explained to the tiny old Jedi, a peer of my father's dead mother and my mother's dead father. They'd had an 'accident', as my other grandmother put it, meaning they'd decided it was time to join the Force before the Jedi Council tracked them. I still don't understand why no one found my living grandmother. She'd been one of their top information brokers, once…
Well, anyway, they found my sister and dragged her back, but she'd already reacted. All portions of her memory related to the Force had been broken off from the rest of her memory and 'forgotten'. She only started remembering when she married your grandfather, though some of her old skills unwittingly returned before then. I don't think anyone suspected anything until she started shooting down rolling droidekas, and then only a few did.
I don't remember when precisely I realized I was dead. I guess it's one of those things that once you know it, it feels like you've always known that. I barely remember what it was like to be alive, anymore…
Why do you like Danni so much? You're not compatible. You're both too philosophical. That's great for friends, but for anything more you'd be at each other's throats all the time. Don't you remember who you used to like, though you thought she'd be shocked if she knew? What about those times you wondered why she did this, or didn't do that? Why haven't you ever asked? Why have you forgotten them? Didn't you notice her response to your good-bye?
Someday, I might just talk to you, Jacen. Let you hear me. If you ever aim to marry that scientist, I think I will. She's a great person, but you need someone active to balance you out.
I know—your grandparents were a lot alike, but so are you and Tenel Ka. My sister and Anakin were both stubborn, reckless pilots, and I could continue for I don't know how long with the list; but your grandmother was calmer, better controlled, more levelheaded, but willing to act when necessary. Kind of like you, actually, in that respect.
You and Tenel Ka share calmness, common interests, and so forth… But her easy action and quick-thinking balances your pensiveness and distractibility, mister "Satellites!" Your diplomatic strength covers her weakness, and vice versa. Don't you see what a great team you are? I mean, I know you cut off her arm, but—
I'd better leave before I get too loud.

Author's Note:
No, I don't hate Danni. I just don't want any forced personality changes, which would be needed if the Danni/Jacen thing really does end up working out on a closer-than-friends level.
