On my (possibly) making a Star Wars AU of her

[aptoautmorior]

I'm not sure I like this idea of yours. The one about making me some sort of fairy creature was alright, but this one isn't as good.

I wouldn't mind having the powers, this Force, but the rest seems unpleasant, it's as if Marissa's project actually had a chance of working, and that doesn't make sense.

...though I suppose making me some sort of fairy creature didn't really make sense either.

At least wait until after your vacation, think it over while you're away, decide if it still seems like a good idea once you've returned.

...doesn't make sense?

[aptoautmorior]

Yes, that's what I said.

Marissa's project was to create a group of 'perfect soldiers', ones with a decreased capacity for fear and for pity, an increased capacity for anger. Ones that were stronger and faster than a normal human.

It doesn't make sense for this First Order to have done the same with a collection of Force-sensitive children. There's no reason for it.

[apull]

But there is a reason for it.

Control. They want soldiers that will do as they are ordered without becoming emotional about it.

[aptoautmorior]

But wouldn't that be easier with children who aren't Force-sensitive?

Do they really think that it's going to turn out in their favor?

[apull]

Those who are Force sensitive could become enemies. It is best to train them when they are young.

Obviously

[aptoautmorior]

I suppose that makes sense.

It didn't work out well for Marissa, in the end, and I'm not sure what the writer plans to do with the idea.

[apull]

I do not know Marissa. You can, however, rely on Supreme Leader Snoke.

[aptoautmorior]

The writer is thinking of something separate from Snoke and his knights, I think.

A specialized unit, reconditioned like the Stormtroopers, something like the Imperial Guard of old.
