Reason for Recommending: It was difficult for me to narrow all my favorite Pumpkin stories to one; she's such a talented writer. This elegant little story takes my breath away every time I read it. It's an AU in which the Jedi serve the galaxy as usual, but when not in active service are, let's say, held in reserve. It's a more 'sci-fi' tale than I normally read, but the language is so crisp and vivid, and the hint of emotion beneath its shining surface leaves me alternately pensive and restlessly excited.
Enjoy.
