Post Kotor - Tumblr Posts
To express my opinion about possible relationship of Revan and Carth after the Star Forge battle, I could give a long talk why it wouldn't work. I guess that I'll write a short fic about that one day. But many years ago I found that fic that describes my view on revanasi perfectly!
I totally agree with how their relationship goes after Kotor 1 in this short story. The thing is that I see how Carth may love either the identity of amnesiac Revan or the 'mix' of her real self and the false one. But! The more Revan remembers her real past and realizes who she really is, the more complicated her relationship with Carth becomes because they like from different universes. Carth can't deal with all this Force stuff while for Revan it is the most natural thing (can't also forget she was a Kreia's student). He doesn't have neither enough power to support her, nor enough knowledge of Force sensitives and their problems. She has that 'dark past' behind and difficulty in mentioning it and some of the people who used to be the closest to her as, obviously, these are Carth's trigger points. Despite all the issues Carth dealt with, he is much closer to a normal person who's eager for a normal life while Revan often 'looks for troubles and new adventures' to her cost. Revan intends to get all the memories back, which might be pretty annoying for Carth. I'm not sure, he wants to lose the very woman he loved during the journey. I'm not sure, he can truly understand 'real Revan'.
So I'm not surprised their romance may be broken when Revan goes away to recover the memories and find out something concerning the Sith and the Emperor.
Thus, as for me, the phrase 'It's so much easier to love her when she's gone' is a real pleasure and makes sense when taking the above into account.
P.S. I completely understand that my opinion is also based on Revan I see. Actually, I can imagine different versions of Revan, but no one of them would say 'I'm not Revan any more... Don't call me that!' or something like that. Quite a long time ago I realized that I'd like to see Revan with a powerful Force sensitive person with a shared past who's also gone through hard times because of the Force, because of the Jedi Order and not only... in my headcanon that is Malak or might be the Exile. I'm wondering why there are only a few fics by the authors who see the Exile and Revan as a couple since it's such a reasonable way to go...
Thank you very much! I always enjoy reading about them in your fics and the blog. I don't remember if their child was mentioned anywhere before... that question suddenly popped into my mind.XD I hope, once I can read that fic.:)
