A/N: Grievous POV. Dedicated to the amazing Kimsa Ki-Lurria, my beloved beta-reader, who gave me this lovely (but rather difficult) prompt. Anyway, I did my best. Enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: Me no own. *sniff* Me no make money either. *sniff*


Whoever said, 'Consistency is droll,' obviously was never in a war.

In a war, you'd give anything for a bit of consistency.

War thrives on unpredictability.

Good soldiers need spontaneity to deal with unpredictability.

I could see this trait in that Jedi fool Skywalker.

His impulses often created trouble, but also often removed it.

Kenobi is no better, no matter how superior he behaves.

Skywalker learned from him, after all.

Other Jedi act the same.

Despite their aloof ways, they hide their true yearning for attachment.

That's the only explanation for their actions.

Sometimes, they rescue one soldier at the risk of one hundred.

Sometimes, they rescue one planet at the risk of one system.

All compulsive, all foolish, all irregular.

But then there's her.

Steadfast, constant, unwavering.

She never strays from her plans.

That might explain why she loses so often.

After all, to be a warrior, you need to be adaptive.

Impulses spell victory.

But, somehow, it's refreshing, this resolute warrior in a world of change.

This peloria.


A/N: I feel like this could have been sooo much better. The prompt had so much more potential. But it's late, and I still have finals tomorrow. XP Ah, well. Reviews make my world go 'round!
