Lol, this would totally work for a lot of other fantasy epic type stuff,too. It's a common structure!
*steals it and writes the next bestseller*
ALSO, it works for shipping! After the first movie, tons of people shipped Leia/Luke just like people shipped Harry/Hermione and neither was the end couple. (For different reasons though, lol.)
that common structure thing annoys me sometimes. I'm thinking I have the next bestseller idea, but when I sit down and think about the general points in the story I almost always find something identical to mine. annoying.
and I'm in such a foul mood today, blah. damn you pms.
I steal from myself all the time! Mostly the characters that were pointless in previous stories suddenly becomes the lead in another story (with a different background and all, of course)
Yup, I believe in that. Presentation is everything!
