It's not just any night at the Wilsons' house, it's high school prom night.

This was the first time my sims went to high school and the first time they attended the school dance too. Here we can see Kennedy with one of her classmates Otto Mendoza, and Mei Prescott, the principal of Copperdale High.

Anika seems to be having a lot of fun with the videos shown to her by another classmate whose name I can't remember cause I took these pics months ago. Actually, everything was very confusing back then (and still is, a bit) with the High School Years expansion.

Anika comes over for some punch, she's wearing her corsage on her wrist and this gorgeous outfit inspired on one of her mom's favorite formal dresses. (It's one of my favorite outfits too! 😉)

Anika's first dance is for Otto, her best friend from school. Of course they are just friends, but I get the impression from everything that’s happened since then, that Otto has feelings for Anika.

But as we already know, Anika’s heart belongs to Alexander Goth, here with her at the after-party in Plumbite Cove, Copperdale.

Anika and Alexander are not dating yet, not that she doesn't want to, it's just Alexander is clueless as hell, lol, and has no idea what to do when they are together. Anika has always had to make the first move in everything, but that's okay, she doesn't want to go that fast anyway, her dad would probably have a heart attack if she did!

Finally Alexander comes up with something to do, and that is to serenade Anika. She seems touched, or maybe it's just that Alex needs to practice his guitar skills more? 🤔

Whatever, it seems that Lucas Munch has had enough of Alexander's 'serenade'.

He followed his friend's example and tried to play something for Kennedy, but she didn't even notice, she was too busy chatting with Tate, another classmate who attended the after party.

It's after midnight, Anika gets a call from her father, it's time to go back. She doesn't want to leave her friends yet, but there's no way to convince Allan, she and her siblings must return home now.

Lukas didn’t even question his father’s orders; he wasn’t having any fun anyway. Typical Lukas. 🙄

Note: Just so there is no confusion, there are two Lucas in my game, Lukas (with a 'k'), son of my OC Allan Wilson, and Lucas Munch, friend of Lukas, Kennedy and Anika.

Note 2: Anika's lovely dress, (and Zoe's in some posts) is by GoodChillsStudio. (@goodchillsstudio) 💗

Chapter #34

Summary:

I had no idea she was there until she sat down next to me and nudged me. "Zorro?"

I blinked several times and looked at her, the hazy feeling fading slowly until I could speak. "Hmm?"

She could tell my mind had been elsewhere and softly asked, "What's going on in that mega mind of yours?"

I looked down at my giraffe and sighed only able to say, "Her."

Chapter #34 

Zach’s Past

☣ ♡ ☣

Despite the fact that Giana held me the rest of that afternoon, after I walked her home, I didn't see her for a few days. In fact, I didn't see her for almost a week. Alright I saw her, but we didn't hang out and I knew it was my fault or at least I assumed it was my fault. It was hard going from seeing her, speaking to her and spending time with her every day to the near polar opposite. To be honest, I spent a lot of time in my room because I wasn't sure what else to do. I still played video games with Gecko, still played catch with Boa, still played soccer with E-Z, and still played volleyball with ZuZu. I still cooked with my mom and still helped my dad balance his household accounts. I even found a website where I could pick a level of difficulty and do as many math problems as I wanted to. Now to you that probably seems boring, but it kept my mind busy and as I've said before, I love math.

One afternoon, I was sitting on the floor of my bedroom cross-legged with Zoe, my stuffed giraffe, in my lap and my fingers were idly fiddling with her tail. I was zoned out, deep in thought and didn't see ZuZu walk by, hear her knock on my doorway or hear anything she said. I had no idea she was there until she sat down next to me and nudged me. "Zorro?"

I blinked several times and looked at her, the hazy feeling fading slowly until I could speak. "Hmm?"

She could tell my mind had been elsewhere and softly asked, "What's going on in that mega mind of yours?"

I looked down at my giraffe and sighed only able to say, "Her."

ZuZu quirked a small smile, but I averted my gaze. My sister was too observant and had probably known for a while just how I felt about Giana. It seemed to me that ZuZu had always seemed to know things about me before I did. I suspected that was even more true after everything with Jayden. I truly didn't feel like I knew who I was anymore. I would lie awake at night, puzzling over what had become of my identity. While with Jayden, my identity was tied to his every word, action and desire. I became dehumanized and now that I was free of him, I had to wonder who I would be now. I wouldn't be the same ever again, but I wasn't so far from the me I've always been that I couldn't reclaim that. For now, it was nice to know that even if I felt like a stranger to myself, ZuZu would always know me better than I know myself. If I got lost in the eye of the storm, in the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle, she would steer me out, a compass to guide me home and anchor me to the present. ZuZu and Giana were my anchors.

Anyway, as I was saying, I averted my gaze at her smile, not wanting to be so easily read. Still, she didn't do more than ask, "What about her?"

I sighed and started fiddling with Zoe's tail again, chewing my lip. There was much to say about her, but the one thing that had been on my heart and mind was—"The other day, about a week ago, everything was perfect but then Jayden texted me."

"He what?!" ZuZu interjected, her body tense as a livewire, a bomb ready to go off. 

I took my hand and wrapped it around her wrist, moving my thumb back and forth on her pulse point. "I'm okay ZuZu," I whispered. I waited for her to nod and let her take my hand and squeeze it as I continued, "Giana saw my face because I suck at hiding how I'm feeling. She tried to come closer in order to comfort me and I..." I teared up, guilt churning in my stomach over how I reacted to Giana's attempt to console me. "I fucking yelled at her to...GET AWAY FROM ME..."

ZuZu helped dry my tears but didn't say anything, letting me take a moment to collect myself enough to continue.

"I apologized to her. My reaction to her attempt to comfort me was just rotten on my part, even if I was scared in that moment."

ZuZu started rubbing my back and I relaxed a little at the familiar gesture. "Then what happened Zorro?"

I looked at ZuZu and softly replied, "She asked what he said. I don't know how she knew it was him."

"Maybe she knows more than you think or pays more attention than you realize. She cares about you. I can see it and so can the rest of the family though they may not realize it the way I do. I can't think of anyone else who could text you and have you react that way."

With a choked off wet chuckle I nodded. "She's so smart and so observant. I feel so stupid now."

"Don't," ZuZu said. "You're not stupid. You were triggered Zorro. I'm sure she doesn't blame you."

I shrugged one shoulder, sure that Giana did in fact blame me, but I didn't voice that belief. "Well, I showed her the text. Then I told her she needed to go home. She thought I meant Lu's house, but I told her she needed to go home to California."

ZuZu's eyes widened, her mouth gaping slightly. "Why?"

My shoulders sagged in defeat. "Because I don't want Jayden to hurt her, and I know he would. I care about her too much to risk him harming her. Well, she then quoted Shakespeare to me, a passion we share. She said, 'I care about you Zach. You're my friend. I'm staying right here.' Those words struck a chord in me, and I've been trying to sort through my thoughts and emotions, my feelings ever since."

Apparently, when I repeated to ZuZu what Giana had said, I may have put an emphasis with slight disappointment in my tone on the word friend. It wasn't a conscious decision which said a lot to be honest.

With her head tilted, she asked me, "Zorro? Why did you say friend like that?"

I looked at her and then down again. "N-No reason."

She sighed. "You can't lie to me. I always know when you do. Come on, Zorro. Throw it out there and we'll deal with it."

"We will?" I asked.

"Always."

"Together?" 

She grinned and squeezed my hand. "How else would we do it?"

I hugged my giraffe tightly, with the arm that wasn't within her grasp and mumbled an incoherent response. 

ZuZu quirked a brow. "What? What was that? Sorry, I couldn't hear you. Could you speak up?"

My cheeks flushed bright pink and I cleared my throat to speak up more. "I-I had t-thought m-maybe—I-I don't want to b-be—I-I w-want her to b-be..." I trailed off, hating how difficult it was to just say the words.

ZuZu wanted to hear me say it and I was trying, grateful for how patient my sister had always been. Finally, I just blurted it out. "I want her to be more than my friend. I want to date her." I covered my face with my hands. I didn't want to see her reaction, too afraid she would think I was delusional for wanting something like that with Giana.

"Heaven's sakes, Zorro! Why haven't you told her?"

I peeked at her through my fingers and then slowly lowered my hands. I was surprised, to say the least. I had expected a different reaction but then I realized that I was still living with a sense of fear. No one in my family, nor a single one of my friends was anything like Jayden but I kept waiting for that to change or not be true. Jayden would've laughed in my face, smacked me around, fucked me until I bled and thrown me in the basement if I had expressed such a sentiment. The reminder of how broken I was led to the tears that slipped down my cheeks when I answered her. "Look at me, ZuZu. I'm a mess. I just got out of an abusive relationship. I'm weak, pathetic, and I have nothing to offer her. I definitely can't bring as much to a relationship as she can. Most of all, I don't deserve her."

ZuZu's expression was the definition of devastated. Slowly she reached out and took my hand, rubbing circles on the back of it with her thumb. She swallowed thickly as she formulated her reply.

Later she would tell me just how hot the hate for Jayden burned in every fiber of her being and I couldn't begin to imagine how much hotter that hate would burn if they knew everything he had done.

"Those words are words that you believe because they were told to you over and over and over again, not because they're true. Look at me, Zorro."

I turned to face her, my heart racing as I took in what she was telling me.

Once she was confident that she had my complete attention, she continued, "You are special, strong, caring, selfless, and honest. Zorro, you have so much love to offer. You are important and you love her. You love Giana. Anyone who is paying attention can tell that you love her, and it's not love like the love you have for Lu or the love you have for your family. It's the kind of love you have for a significant other, a love that is true."

I teared up again, my heart hurting and swelling at the same time. "Do you think she—How can I possibly—Why would she want me, ZuZu?"

ZuZu took my hands in hers and sighed softly, blinking to relinquish her own tears. "You'll have to ask her in order to know the exact reasoning on her side of things, but she came all this way and she's still here. She has spent time with Lu, time with you and time our whole family. She spent time with each of your siblings, doing something they loved. She cooked with mom and well, she didn't do as much with dad cause he's dad but the time she's spent getting to know each of us speaks to her character. Everything she has said and done, speaks volumes about how she feels."

The words made my heart soar, and butterflies flitted about in my stomach. "W-Well what should I do?"

ZuZu let out an exasperated sigh. "TELL HER!"

I blushed and nodded. "Ok," I whispered.

☣ ♡ ☣

After ZuZu and I talked, I got on my computer to see where I could get the perfect flower. There was a flower, a blue rose to be precise, that I had thought about getting for her quite a while now. I was so excited when I found it and was relieved to see that I could easily order it or go pick one up. I decided it was best to order it because it would come protected and fresh. So that's what I did, and I also discovered the meaning behind giving someone a blue rose. The meaning of blue roses is to transmit trust, loyalty, affection and reserve. When I chose blue, it wasn't for the meaning but instead because it reminds me of her eyes, but the meaning was perfect. I was antsy waiting for it to be delivered, but when it arrived and I saw it, my breath caught. It was perfect, just like...her. Then, of course, I was fretting on what to wear when I went to give it to her, but I realized that wasn't what mattered. 

I looked at my reflection in the mirror, having finally decided on an outfit. I wore dark wash jeans, a white fit tee with a blue button up over it that I left unbuttoned and a pair of blue converse. I then grabbed the rose and took a deep breath to steel my nerves. After a few minutes of deep breathing, I left my house and made my way to Lu's house. I had considered telling them I was coming but a part of me was too nervous that I'd chicken out and another part of me was afraid that she would tell me I couldn't come.

I arrived about twenty minutes later, walked up the steps and rang the doorbell. I hid the rose behind my back to prevent her from seeing it right away. I heard someone coming to the door and I a small smile formed on myself when I realized it was Giana who was opening the door. As I tried to figure out what to say, I saw and heard a few things that made me pause.

Giana was in a pair of black pajama shorts with low battery symbols on them and a black t-shirt that had a low battery symbol on it and her hair was down, slightly curled, cascading over her shoulders. I realized just how short the shorts were and I found it difficult to keep from staring. Then I saw Lu get up from the couch, but he was in pajama pants and shirtless.

He walked towards the kitchen but glanced at the door, seeing me and then glanced at Giana. "Hey Zach. Hey, GiGi? I'm getting more popcorn. Do you want anything?"

She glanced at Lu, but it didn't escape my noticed the way a light blush formed on her cheeks. The sight caused my heart to sink and the smile on my face to fade away. Still, I didn't say a word while she answered Lu's question. "How about a soda? Ooooh and some M&Ms?"

"Sure!" Lu said and headed into the kitchen and the door swung shut behind him. 

"Thanks Luigi." She called out and then turned back to me.

I couldn't meet her gaze at first, believing that I was about to make a fool of myself. Here they were in pajamas together, eating popcorn, watching a movie and to top it off, they even had pet names. I looked down at my feet and wished that I hadn't come.

Just as I was debating the pros and cons of leaving without saying a word, Giana's voice broke through my thoughts. "Hey, Zach. Everything alright? I didn't know you were coming."

"Clearly," I muttered bitterly.

That made her tilt her head, and I could have sworn she flinched at my tone. However, before she could reply, Lu reappeared. "Hey GiGi. Toby just called and he's stuck at the airport. Will you be alright if I have to head out?"

She looked at Lu and nodded with a smile. "Of course. Can't have the boyfriend stuck at the airport now, can we?"

Lu chuckled, shaking his head. "Definitely not." He then hurried upstairs to get what he needed in order to go pick up his boyfriend. I wasn't sure what emotion I was feeling at the fact that Lu had a boyfriend. I hadn't heard about Toby but then I had to remind myself that Lu and I hadn't stayed in touch after we broke up aside from the gift that he gave me. I had no claim on him anymore of course and I didn't want to but sometimes there was still a phantom ache in my chest when I thought of him with someone else. I hadn't ever been in love with Lu, but I did love him once. Now however...

It suddenly occurred to me that my assumption had been so far off base. I felt so terrible in that moment for having assumed. It was said that to assume was to make an ass of you and me.

When Lu came back downstairs and left, I finally looked up at Giana who wasn't meeting my gaze either, but she softly said, "So um...what brings you here?"

I clutched the rose tightly behind my back and took a deep breath. "W-Well t-there um—I-I had a thing t-to s-say—Had words to do—I mean, I wanted to say that um—I had a question but—I had something t-to tell you a-a-and I f-figured I s-should b-bring you s-s-something to um—" I was so nervous and couldn't seem to get the right words to come out.

Giana tilted her head, her face giving no indication that she was annoyed or impatient which was a relief. She smiled gently and looked at me. "Zach? Take a moment. Take a breath."

I did as she said, taking a deep breath in, held it and then let it out. I did that a few times and then met her gaze, my voice soft as I tried again. "I-I wanted to t-tell you something a-and I f-figured I-I should b-bring you something."

Her smile grew. "Ok. What did you bring?"

I breathed out and pulled the rose from behind my back, offering it to her and trying to ignore the way my hand shook as I waited for her to take it. I hoped she didn't notice the tremors.

She gasped softly, her eyes widening and slowly reached for it. As she graciously accepted the rose, our fingers brushed, sending a shiver through my body and I quickly pulled my hand away, shoving it into my pocket and clearing my throat.

"Z-Zach?"

I shoved my hands further into my pockets, my nerves high and my heart racing a mile a minute. "Yes?" I said, the words barely audible.

"It's beautiful."

I looked up, my eyes wide with surprise even as a small hopeful smile formed on my face. "Wait. R-Really?"

She nodded, "Really. I love blue."

"A b-beautiful flower for a b-beautiful girl. It's b-blue like your eyes."

She blushed deep red and couldn't help chuckling softly. My head perked up when she asked, "Would you um..." she trailed off for a moment and then cleared her throat. "Would you like to come inside? Then you can tell me what you wanted to tell me."

I nodded slowly and when she stepped aside, I walked inside. I was surprised when she headed to the living room and didn't close the door behind me. She would later tell me that she wanted a closed door to be my doing. She figured after everything with Jayden that I would want to choose whether or not to be alone with someone. That made me melt completely when she later revealed such consideration to me.

She cleared off a spot for me to sit beside her. I briefly wondered about how the sitting arrangements were prior to my arrival and would later learn that she and Lu had taken to friendly cuddles but no more than like a head on a shoulder under a blanket. She held the rose close the entire time before sitting on the right side of the couch. She smiled and patted the spot next to her. "Join me?"

I nodded and slowly sat down on the left side, my eyes finding hers. If I could have seen the expression on my face, I knew it would be akin to admiration. I had always and always would, admire Giana. "S-So um..."

She tilted her head, "What was it you wanted to tell me?"

I knew exactly what I wanted to tell her. There was no question about it, no doubt as to the words, but I found myself saying pretty much everything except that. "Well, I wanted to again apologize for yelling at you when you tried to comfort me. That was a rotten thing for me to do, and it was a horrible way to repay all your kindness."

She smiled and shrugged one shoulder. "It's alright, Zach. You were scared and that's nothing to be ashamed of."

I relaxed more, letting out a breath of relief that I didn't know I was holding. The more we talked, the more I was able to relax.

Eventually, I ended up kicking off my shoes and shrugging out of my button up shirt. the warmth of the house making it more comfortable to remove. Then we started a different movie, both agreeing on Nerve. I loved the movie, and I loved it all the more because I was watching it with her. 

☣ ♡ ☣

After the movie ended, it was pretty late and so I softly spoke, gathering as much courage as I could. "Giana?"

She looked at me, her sapphire blue eyes bright and her countenance one of contentment. "Yes, Zach?"

I swallowed thickly and cleared my throat. "Can I ask you something?"

She nodded. "Sure. What's up?"

I chewed my lip and had every intention of asking what I had wanted to ask her all evening, but something held me back from doing so. Instead, I asked, "I was wondering if you would like to go swimming? W-With me. L-Like you and me."

She tilted her head and then blushed lightly. She would later tell me that she wanted to ask if I was asking her on a date, but she simply said, "I'd love to. When? Where?"

I smiled, the butterflies returning to my stomach and my heart alight with excitement. "Tomorrow and um...I know a place."

Her smile and excitement were infectious and apparently so was her yawn followed by fluttering eyelashes, both of us tired and acknowledging the later hour. "Sorry. I'm tired."

I shook my head, waving off her apology, "Don't be sorry. I um...I can go home."

She took my hand in hers and very softly suggested, "Maybe you could stay?"

I knew the heat on my cheeks was making them turn deep red, but I didn't let it bother me or keep me from replying, "Y-You want me to s-stay?"

"Yes. Please?"

The ability to deny that request wasn't within my capabilities at that point. So, that was how we ended up asleep side by side on the couch. Then, well, when I tell you what happened next, you'll find out how we ended up sleeping throughout the night.

☣ ♡ ☣

Lu and his boyfriend Toby had gotten back really late, around 4 am and he went to check on us since we had left the tv on. He would later tell us that he melted completely at the adorable picture we made. He had been severely tempted to capture it in a picture, a true Kodak moment.

ZuZu showed up at Lu's house around 12 pm since I hadn't yet returned home. She rang the doorbell and Lu quickly answered the door, a huge grin forming on his face as he gestured for her to come in. "Come here. Come here. You have to see this."

She followed him inside and he led her to the living room where he pointed to the couch. ZuZu peeked in and she would later tell us that she grinned so hard at the sight. Giana and I were cuddled closer than we had ever been before, our legs intertwined and our arms around each other.

When Giana and I woke up, I admit to you that it was both awkward and yet not awkward in the slightest. For her it was me and for me it was her. We sat up and parted slightly, our eyes meeting and locking.

I gently tucked her hair behind her ear and softly asked, "S-So swimming? You and me?"

She leaned into the gesture and nodded, her voice coming out just as soft, "You and me. What time?"

"I was thinking that we could go for a midnight swim. I can come pick you up."

With a light pink tint to her cheeks, she nodded. "S-Sounds perfect to me."

I was on cloud nine and I swear I could've kissed her. That's how excited I was, but of course I didn't kiss her...yet. I did however kiss her cheek before I left and made my way home. I was beyond excited, looking forward to the evening I would spend with Giana.

As I walked, I told myself, 'You're going to take her swimming and you are going to ask her to—You're going to ask her to be your girlfriend."

I had a skip in my step, a grin on my face and my heart full of hope, soaring and racing in my chest. All of that because of the beautiful blue rose—the beautiful blue rose that was Giana and, well, I trusted her. However, most of all, I was absolutely falling in love with her, that was if I hadn't already fallen.

Being an avid day dreamer of sorts, it happened that Felipe ventured into places without his focus being fully on either his surroundings nor the people that chatted all around him. He was doing his best to piece together a plot hole in his current work in progress, wondering if it was fixable at all or if he had to sidetrack an act to make it make sense. His hard at work brain was offered a bit of a break, however, when a man spoke up by his side and he was a bit taken aback by the question - humming out loud to showcase he was thinking. "I'm probably rather biased but I'd say Dia de los Fieles Difuntos - or Day of the Dead as most know of it. It's one of those few times you get to properly celebrate being Mexican and come together as a community, it's rather sweet." Most other Mexican holidays often required one to travel down there and his personal funds didn't stretch that far - even if his parents had plenty. "Other than that... hard to say. How about you?"

Luca was glad to be home. Not that Denver was home. Home was more a concept -- the place where his family was -- and since the majority of his siblings had chosen Denver as their home location, taking the job with the Rapids had been an easy choice. So much so that it hadn't felt like a choice at all. He was still getting used to it, though. Of the cities he'd lived in, this one seemed to be the most intent on bringing its residents together. "I'm pretty sure this is the only place I've lived so far that's felt like there's always something happening." Maybe it was just that his career had kept him busy and he'd never fully been able to experience the other cities. "Which event is your favorite throughout the year?"

The Hitman fandom is comprised of so many amazingly talented people. Their passion in celebrating the Hitman series goes to incredibly creative lengths, including (but certainly not limited to) animations, let’s plays, GIFs, screenshots, fanfiction, fanart, playlists, crafts, and more. I wanted to make a post recognizing many of these wonderful people and link some of my favorite fanworks of theirs through the years. (Please note: Tumblr kept breaking with so many links, so I had to paste some fanart links as plain text!)

And I know there are more awesome people out there still for me and others to discover—comment/reblog and let us know who they are! ❤️

The final film of the devisive Star Wars prequel trilogy was released on May 19, 2005. Of the first 6 Star Wars movies, Revenge of the Sith was the first Star Wars movie to be rated PG-13. It was also the first Star Wars film to not recieve a nomination of Best Visual Effects. The original cut of the movie tied directly to the end of the Genndy Tartakovsky animated Clone Wars (2003 - 2005) shorts and showed Shaak Ti (Orli Shoshan) being executed after failing to protect Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid). The animated shorts also introduced General Grievous (Matthew Wood) and explained why he had respratory problems. The title was simular to the original title of episode 6 Revenge of the Jedi (1983), which was turned to Return of the Jedi as Lucas felt revenge was not a Jedi trait. The title was changed late enough that it altered the title of Vengeance of Khan (1982) to Wrath of Khan as Star Trek producers felt Vengeance sounded too close to Revenge. Lucas finally worked in a Wookie planet battle that was originally in the script for episode 3 Star Wars A New Hope (1977) and reworked as Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. Originally, George Lucas planned to write and direct the first movie and then story and executive produce episodes 2 and 3, like he did with 5 and 6, but after the panning the first prequel got, he wrote and directed 2 and 3 himself. The movie had the key points of ending The Clone Wars, turning Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen and James Earl Jones) into Darth Vader, the fall of the Jedi and the Republic, the creation of the Empire, the revelation of the Emperor and his disfiguration, the duel between Vader and Obi Wan (Ewan McGregor) that disfigured him, the death of Padme (Natalie Portman), the birth of Luke Skywalker (Aidan Barton) and Princess Leia Organa (also Aidan Barton), Luke's adoption by Owen (Joel Edgerton) and Beru Lars (Bonnie Piesse), Leia's adoption by Bail (Jimmy Smits) and Breha (Rebecca Jackson Mendoza) Organa, Yoda's (Frank Oz) exile to Degobah and Obi Wan to Tatooine, and C-3PO (Anthony Daniels) getting his memory wiped. The movie introduced the planets Utapau, Mygeeto, Felucia, Saleucami, Kashyyk (though technically this first appeared in the Star Wars Holiday Special - 1978), and Mustafar. Action also took place on established planets Coruscant, Naboo, and Tatooine. Noteable deaths in the movie were Count Dooku (Christopher Lee), General Grievous, Padme, Agen Kolar (Tux Akindoyeni), Saesee Tiin(Kenji Oates), Kit Fitso (Ben Cooke), Mace Windu (Samuel L Jackson), Boga, Ki-Adi-Mundi (Silas Carson), Aayla Secura (Amy Allen), Plo Koon (Matt Sloan), Stass Allie (Nina Fallon), Zett Jukassa (Jett Lucas), Whie Malreaux (Coinneach Alexander), Bene (Olivia McCallum), Cin Dralling (Nick Gillard), Nank Tun, Passel Argente (Marty Wetherill), Po Nudo (Paul Nicholson), Poggle the Lesser (Richard Stride), Rune Haako (Jerome Blake), Rute Gunnay (Colin Ware), Nute Gunray (Silas Carson), Tikkes , Cat Miin, Shu Mai, San Hill, and Wat Tambor (Ben Burtt and Matthew Wood). Characters that continued on to the original trilogy were Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, the Emperor, Yoda, C-3PO, Tarkin (Wayne Pygram), R2-D2 (Kenny Baker), Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), Owen and Beru Lars, Mon Mothma (Genevieve O'Reilly), Luke Skywalker, and Leia Organa. Critically, Revenge of the Sith is often called the best of the prequel trilogy and was the highest domestic grossing film in year release of 2005. ("Revenge of the Sith", Star Wars Movie Event)

offered a slight shrug in response, not necessarily opposed to the idea. “ if that's what you needed from me, then sure. ” she might've been laughing, but his offer was entirely serious. scoffed at her statement, found that it was his turn to roll his eyes at her. “ you're wrong, astrid. i haven't met a single problem that violence didn't solve. ”

“   oh   really   ?   and   what   are   you   going   to   do   ?   help   me   bury   the   body   ?   ”   she   laughs   at   the   ridiculousness   of   it   all   .   rolling   her   eyes   in   an   almost   affectionate   manner   .   “   violence   doesn’t   solve   everything   ,   lucas   .   ”

ABS-CBN: Farmers' groups question Marcos rice tariff cut policy before Supreme Court

Farmers groups filed a petition for certiorari with a prayer for the issuance of a Temporary Restraining Order at the Supreme Court against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, National Economic and Development Authority Secretary Arsenio Balisacan and Tariff Commission Chairperson Marilou Mendoza.

The farmers are questioning the constitutionality of Marcos' Executive Order No. 62 which reduces the tariff on rice imports from 35 percent to 15 percent.

Aside from due process, the EO also allegedly violated the constitutional mandate of government officials to protect farmers from unfair competition and trade practices and to develop a self-reliant and independent national economy controlled by Filipinos, they said.

The group expects that because of the EO, farmers will no longer plant rice on some 500,000 hectares of land because of the expected flood of imported rice.

The petitioners also claimed that even with the deluge of rice imports, prices of rice for the consuming public are not expected to go down.
