Love Meme, Day Four

Day 04 - The pairing with the most chemistry?

Atton/Exile. Honestly, the moment my player character walked into his cell, I felt it. It's pretty much why they became my favorite pairing in the game (although Exile/Sion, Exile/Visas and Exile/Handmaiden are also pretty awesome) -- they just seemed to click well together, they really did.

Exile/Sion. Especially on Malachor -- one thing I like about that scene is how...intimate Sion's voice becomes. How gentle. It's a very nice touch, and a lovely bit of voice acting (then again, the voice-acting in the KOTOR games is pretty much top-notch). And "I hate you because you're beautiful to me" is a really bizarre declaration of affection towards someone, but in the context of Sion's character (generally a broken man with one bit of gentleness in him that he can't wrap his head around), it actually works.

Han/Leia. They continue that into The Force Awakens in my opinion. I mean, their scenes together really convey their love for one another, their conflict, and their devotion and sorrow over what's happened more than, say, LOTF could.

Revan/Bastila. What can I say? Their dialogue, the kiss in the crew quarters, the confrontation atop the Temple Summit and later the Star Forge (and yes, being to redeem her via love...that is a fucking awesome scene)...it's all just wonderfully done.

I went into the latest Star Wars movie unspoiled and came out heartbroken. Han/Leia <3<3<3

I know! Those scenes were just amazing. Really well-done, if heartbreaking. Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher just really did an excellent job there. (And what happens to Han...dear God)

I couldn't agree more. Plus, I'm always glad when they feature characters and couples that are not in their early to mid-20s and picture perfect and live happily ever after if that makes sense. Or maybe I'm just a bitter old cow. So yeah – it was good to see Han and Leia and how there was still so much love and tenderness there despite of what life put them both through. It was such a believable continuation of their story/relationship.

I completely agree with everything you said. Seriously, well-put. :)
