A daughter turning to the dark side, I can sure relate to that! Sith eyes and all! It's good he was able to stop her, but I fear that her struggle with the dark side is not over, and she will still be arrested for her attack on Mothma, though she hurt Han and should be arrested too!
I also wanted to mention that I really liked how you portrayed the fact that nobody ever sees themself as being bad when they are, just as Leia did, and how most people- as Leia did- feel that they'd 'never do that' but they DO NOT know until they are faced with the situation. I have argued with many judgemental, self righteous people who swear they'd never do this or that, but until you are faced with it yourself, you don't know. NOBODY knows.

Eek, Leia going to the dark side with yellow eyes! He'd better watch her, she might flare up again. There has to be a way to stop MonMothma without turning to the dark side.

Hmmm. Okay, but DO they have the backbone to stand up against Mon Mothma if she wakes up and screams for their heads?
At least Master Yoda is there now; maybe he can help Leia where he failed with Anakin. Glad at least to see that he won't insist the old rules be resurrected.

Will MonMothma have to get a fake hand or will it be reattached? What's going to happen to Leia now?

Whew, Padme is going to be okay! It sure didn't do her any good to find out what happened iith Leia. How can anyone judge Anakin when it seems power and anger overtake everyone? I wonder if anyone will still be stable and level headed after all this. If one is excused, they all should be.
GOOD! Yoda finally learned his lesson about the old ways being flawed, and how love can help. This is a positive thing! Luke must have helped teach the old master a lot, and Anakin's story was nothing he could have expected. At least he has another chance.

Finally they are all listening to each other -- GOOD!! And can I say how happy I am that you are tackling Yoda (and with him the entire old Jedi order) and their outmoded tenets and beliefs? Excellent that he is seeing that what the Jedi always taught wasn't infallible.
But Mothma still has to regain consciousness, and I doubt she will wake up and decide to be charitable. They are already hesitant about Leia's outburst; I expect she may try to build on that. Keep em coming!

Good for Padme! She is very strong, and right! You go girl!
It is good to see Anakin making his peace with Yoda and Yoda admitting he was wrong. Now Leia and the dark side are the problem, and together I hope they can save her.

As I suspected; Mothma is in just as much of a rage as Leia, except she is unwilling to listen to reason. They took her out of the room, but somehow I suspect she will be back to throw a wrench in everything for them, whether anyone is on her side or not. She's vengeful and she won't be thinking ahead about what's good for the galaxy at large any more than she thought ahead about how they could trace her own location. She just wants revenge and can't see anything but that.
On a positive note, however, it's good to see Leia tackling the problem. Luke (and Anakin) should hopefully keep her from slipping into Anakin's old mistake of not talking about anything that bothered him.

What tender, beautiful loving relationships you have portrayed here, Anakin and Padme, Luke and Leia, Leia and Han. I feel like I am looking at them. The dialogue and descriptions were very endearing, and enjoyable. Nice, nice job.

Things are pretty complicated for Anakin, having to worry about Padme's health, Leia's struggle with the force, and his own political position. He's got so much on him, the force be with him! And Mothma, what will she be up to next?

Oh, no, Dodonna is the weak link; Mothma will exploit that for sure. And the unfortunate thing is, she may sacrifice him for what she believes in her craziness is the "greater good."
I'm wondering what you have up your sleeve to stop her once she gets going ...

How sweet R2 showed everyone Anakin and Padme's marriage! Man Mon Mothma is really nuts! I'm worried what she will do!

Well, at least everyone seems to be cognizant of the fact that Mothma can still be a problem. Now, if there was only something they could do about it. A sanitorium can be escaped from ...

It was so powerful how Anakin helped Leia deal with the dark side!
Mothma is a crazy woman, I don't trust her. They have pushed her over the deep end, and I think it's incredibly interesting to see her used this way. Great idea! But she's so unstable now, what is she up to?
What is it she has that is coming up as sthingy at the end of Chapter 56? It must be something in the censored word lists, if I know what it is I'll fix it- and I'm dying to know what it is!
