It wasn't my idea for him to be the Hero! It just...happened. :D I'd planned for someone else to be the hero -- like, William Petersen or Orli, but it just didn't work in my head. (And yes, you may, if you don't mind the unedited version...) Julie, darling dearest, I DON’T WANT CILLIAN. It wasn’t my idea for him to be the Hero!

It's actually pretty sexy. I can see why you wanted to incorporate the chicken into the story (if indeed this picture was inspiration). Julie, did you ever watch that reality show where Ewan went all over the country (I don't know which country - oops) on a motorcycle with his friend? They keep showing it on the Fox Reality channel I have, but I've never watched it. I loved Ewan as Obi Wan. Way better looking than Alec Guiness! Though Alec was a wonderful Obi as well....

And with dark hair because I was watching Moulin Rouge, where he's got dark brown hair. In reality, you can't improve on Ewan. The man is perfect.

I got a huge laugh out of imagining Ewan reading that and being really put out….

But hey. Who cares. He's wearing tight trousers and knee-length boots and he's a Jedi. That's good enough for me.
