This was hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing. xD

About a decade ago, I wrote a short oneshot called "what you didn't see in ROTJ".
This one is so much better. The emperor is so In-character, self-important, and devious self-flattering. You are a witty writer, and I've always enjoyed your style.
Just Brilliant. ;)

... That Alderaanian Arralute Toe Moisturizer must be hell of a lot more expensive these days, fit for the Emperor I say.

Thank you for sharing.

XD

Epic!

That is one of the most hysterical stories that I've ever read! It's been hours since I read it, and I'm still chuckling. I'm amazed that in the 34 years since I first saw 'Return of the Jedi,' not once have I thought about what happened to Luke's handcuffs in that Throne Room scene. I love the way the Emperor thought that he had every aspect of Luke's turn to the Dark Side under his complete control, only for you to show that one really can't control EVERYthing. Very well written, and such fun to read. Thanks for sharing.

He tripped and fell down the stairs and died... Oh god LMAO! :)

As Luke said: "Your overconfidence is your weakness." To this, he should have added: "Also your stereotypical grandfatherly absent-mindedness."

this is great

watching the end of rebels "crawler commandos", i couldnt help but think that someone liked this story

Brilliant :)

Oh my gods. Oh my gods. I can't stop laughing. This was brilliant.

*snicker*

What a way to go. I was expecting it to be the cape, so the surprise made it more amusing.
