Not a lot of ability to build up their tolerance for it with kids around. :) But very loving, and very sweet.Kelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03289869686941780934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-90770132071526232402016-09-12T20:31:51.085-05:002016-09-12T20:31:51.085-05:00Great story.

I thought I had subscribed, and I know I checked for a new entry Tuesday morning. :/ Since it's nothing but the sound of crickets around here, I am going to assume that the notification system might not be working.<br />Pleeeeeeaaasse don't get discouraged. I know you run the site and put an amazing amount of effort into it. Thanks you and sorry again.<br /><br />Back on topic..<br />Favorite Lines: "And how do I look tonight?"/ "A little blurry"<br /><br />I like how Leia forgot the kids weren't around. Actually there is ALOT about the inebriation in this fiction that seems incredibly realistic. ie, how they are too blitzed to ...uh..perform what they initially intended. Which is funny because you said it wasn't "real" drunk sex. When really... They are completely smashed! Way more than the other submissions. I thoroughly enjoyed your humor and realism in this. It was... a little too close to home. :P<br />I loved it!<br />Thanks for sharing. <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02970253511235831070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-6975204123110424392016-09-08T10:59:54.372-05:002016-09-08T10:59:54.372-05:00Yeah, I really don't know why people don't...Yeah, I really don't know why people don't get emails for new posts, I thought it was something that had happened in the past. I'll look into it.<br /><br />It may have been a tad overly mushy for them but I think the drunkenness just made them a little more honest. <br /><br />And thanks, as this went along it seemed to make more sense that this was not going to be one of their usual off-the-charts encounters. But at this stage in their relationship I can see them not really caring. Lol to "a wee lie-doon" as I hear the accent in my head, definitely made me laugh. <br /><br />Thanks!Zyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860113813294303312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-55620413876103434962016-09-08T08:29:19.031-05:002016-09-08T08:29:19.031-05:00Sorry for the lagging response, Zyra, but I don...Sorry for the lagging response, Zyra, but I don't get notifications when there's a new post on this blog, so I have to rely on my increasingly faulty memory. I could have sworn I used to get an email at each new post; I'm sure I signed up for it! But I now only get emails when there's a new post in reply to one I've commented on already. It only occurred to me late last night to check the blog for new stuf.... <br /><br />I adore married Han and Leia, and I'm a big, big fan of them being mushy when they're completely alone. There were so many cute little moments in this. Leia's response when Han asks how he looks ("A little blurry") lol! And she forgot the kids weren't there. hahaha Methinks they need a little more alone time than they get.... <br /><br />I especially liked the imperfection of their evening. It certainly rings true for an "old married couple" to have some of their romantic evenings go slightly (or even horribly) awry now and then. Han's big plans fell to pieces, and Leia's attempt to save the day didn't quite work out. I giggled at how debilitated they both became from the drink. It was really funny to picture each of them needing to have "a wee lie-doon" as the Scots say, before they could continue. LOL Too funny. They got there in the end, though, and they got there with love. And that's what counts. Lovely fic, Zyra. :) Erin Darrochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17022044977128626948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-53898427705660283902016-09-08T08:02:19.770-05:002016-09-08T08:02:19.770-05:00Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.

And yes, they definitely get the opposite future compared to TFA in my head, for sure!<br /><br />I didn't have anything specific in mind for the alcohol. Just something that tastes like you'd be fine to drink a lot, but definitely isn't ;)Zyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860113813294303312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-74496030500116973882016-09-07T18:01:26.734-05:002016-09-07T18:01:26.734-05:00I loved it!
This is just the just the type of ha...I loved it! <br /><br />This is just the just the type of happily-ever-after antidote to TFA that I crave. I love how Leia was so mellow that she actually forgot that the kids weren't there, plus his promise to be thorough...which, like a true gentleman, he tried very hard to keep. And blaming alcohol for the reason they had Anakin in the first place made me laugh out loud. <br /><br />This is what exactly what I wanted for their relationship in ten, or twenty, or thirty years...a love that grows with each passing day, not the miserable fate they were handed. <br /><br />Thanks for making my day :)<br /><br />Oh...not sure what you had in mind that they are drinking, but in my head I automatically went to Ruby Port...*shudder*.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13910395768942058868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591963962547240042.post-20858445278887496252016-09-07T14:09:16.751-05:002016-09-07T14:09:16.751-05:00I see I've awed you all into a stunned silence...I see I've awed you all into a stunned silence.
