I agree, and hope my prior post didn't indicate otherwise.
I am very much advocating from a point of PTSD understanding, and prevention.
20 some odd years ago, stupid naive me didn't turn off one of those post 911 beheading videos. Even just typing that out puts me on the edge still.
There are ways to teach and prevent the atrocities of war, without subjecting someone to those atrocities first or second hand.
The world needs fewer folks with PTSD, thanks. Not more.
I was just coming to complain about that too. It invalidates everyone who is successfully working from home, while obfuscating the fact that is really return-to-office.
And life long mental health care. Fuck.
Sure it is. Copy the repo, re-init, publish as a new project. Forked.
It's all git, after all. You init a new repo, its a new project under all eyes but perhaps copyright.
Be well. ❤️
Yeah i think this was penned in one of the very first EU novels. Mid to late 90s. Might even be part of the original Thrawn trilogy, as I have Yaspin in my brain attached to the memory. Might also be a KJA novel. Darksaber trilogy maybe?
Edit - suffice to say, if memory serves, Han sees it for what it is, and stays for princess reasons.
Han was already a Captain of a ship and crew, capable of that kind of complex 'Generalling' as demonstrated by supporting Luke's run on the trench.
Luke was a flyboy kid off the farm, albeit a savant.
Edit. And further into the lore, the rebels would have needed people capable of leading other large groups of people to success. So they would tack on promotions or immediate ranks to retain that talent, but at levels they could use and trust.
Promoting a savant to General and giving him whatever groups of troops to achieve goals, ia much riskier than promoting the already somewhat proven Captain.
Luke was lined up for General in the short term anyways, iirc. At least in the EU canon.
It is at the current stage. That is the point.
Yeah it's a vital component of the story, and any pushback reaks of 'dont say gay'.
Onion is on top form the last little bit.
