打开新索第一本，原来第一章开头就是lesser evil终章

第一章：野蛮外星人大开杀戒
原来书里他穿的还是自己缝的毛皮，真的野人，，漫画里给他画的衣服比较正常
Eli很喜欢奇斯人传说的样子

哦噢 被揍得两颊流血……统治领三部曲都没怎么受伤来热情好客科洛桑第一个月就被揍了（
The standard Academy curriculum included a unit on unarmed combat. Unfortunately, with Thrawn’s studies focused exclusively on technology and navy protocol, he hadn’t been given any time in the combat dojo.
And it showed. He was doing his best to fend off his attackers, but his defense consisted mainly of trying to push them away, ducking away from their attacks, dodging so that they couldn’t all come at him at once, and trying to protect his face and torso.
-
...this will also prove a useful lesson for his future. One can hope he will take it to his core, and become a better person and officer.”
“Not sure I’d go that far,” Deenlark said.
我的笑点。。。

“Could you really tell they would be good starfighter pilots? Or was that just a way to get them kicked out of Royal Imperial?”
“I could really tell,” Thrawn said. “You could not?”
索龙in奇斯领：你看不出来？
索龙in科洛桑：你看不出来？
-
“Yeah,” Vanto said. “Lucky for me, I’m on track for a supply officer position. I’ll never have to worry about that.”
唉呀伊莱真就遇上了改变他一生的男人😅

看完第十章
是我错觉吗还是、感觉索龙在帝国经历的事件比之前更加theatric（亡兄的影子哦……

原来天鹅座就是Cygnus，Cygni又给自己取名night swan
（上帝视角一下）老哥你的名字好明显哦……🤭

看阿林达的章节，描述距离都是用xxx levels down from/ xxxth floor/ lower parts … 好有趣的科洛桑地理（想到那座科洛桑最高峰⛰

索龙两年不到就从lieutenant升到了captain，而一般的海军士兵要10到15年
⬆️我知道他很快但不知道比别人快这么多🤭

“Of course,” Vanto said. *His tone is properly respectful, but also holds irony.* “So when you were attacked at Royal Imperial Academy…?”
“I wished to study the attackers’ capabilities,” Thrawn said. “I would have protected you from serious harm, as indeed I protected myself.”
上次被揍是故意放水吼，装逼男 ！

索龙被人叫imp 我脑中：小恶魔，蓝精灵

“What about you, Commander? Why do *you* seek high rank?”
It was a question many had asked over the years. Thrawn had asked it of himself. The answer never seemed to satisfy the questioner. “Because there are problems that must be solved. Some cannot be solved by anyone except me.”

不愧是你

Or had the High Command decided they were tired of Thrawn’s continual focus on the man and wanted him to stop harassing the other commanders just because he thought they weren’t doing their job?
笑死了，都是为了帝国好怎么能叫骚扰呢.. ！

伊莱在索龙身边过的都什么日子，一收到紧急命令就开始担心是不是索龙又要上军事法庭🤣
像家一样熟悉的court-martial

伍基人奴隶船事件真的好福尔摩斯，血字的研究……

关于奴隶的看法，感觉他在开头日记就写了⬇️
But standing by an ally doesn’t necessarily mean one will always agree with that ally. Or with his goals or methods.

不救这些人是为了继续维持在帝国的位置，在长期目标—grysk战争中能救更多的人？很屎的列车难题的感觉
其实如果他就是个纯纯的坏蛋也能解释，把所有人甚至自己都当工具罢了。（但奇斯领把他写太好了

又是“全都给我算到了”！爱看……
怎么有个帝国官叫Yve，和Yiv读起来好像也差不多

去有声书听了一下前面这段，感觉只是音量大了一点，
“I am your commander, stormtrooper,” Thrawn said. “*You will step aside!*”
*Vanto twitches at the sudden volume and vehemence. The stormtrooper likewise reacts with surprise. He hastily steps away from the hatchway.*“Thank you,” Thrawn said.
He and Vanto stepped inside. “You disapprove of my words and tone?”
“I don’t disapprove of either, sir,” Vanto said. “I was just startled. I don’t think I’ve ever heard you shout in anger before.”

“It *has* been rather in his shadow, hasn’t it?”
Eli smiled. Once, he’d indeed felt that way.
But not anymore. Not for a long time.
“I’m not worried about it,” he assured Nightswan. “The future is what you make of it, as my father used to say. I’m a commander, I have a fairly decent list of victories on my ledger, and I’d like to think I’ve picked up one or two friends along the way.”
“Really?” Nightswan said. “Because Thrawn doesn’t seem to have. Not politically astute at all, from what I hear.” He snorted. “As for you, my young idealist commander, do you really think you have any friends on Coruscant? A Wild Space nobody who’s spent his entire career as a house pet to a nonhuman?”

啊哦不愧美帝了还有换衣服剧情，衣服差了两个码、、他俩单独出任务玩得挺开心的
夜天鹅怎么也知道索龙和安纳金的事情啊感觉所有人、🏳️‍🌈❓

不过，cygni怎么会认不出奇美拉以为是索龙在指挥呢……

Nightswan turns and begins walking toward the mining complex. “I have read about the nightswan,” Thrawn called after him. “Have you?”
Nightswan turns partially back. His face is obscured by shadow. His body stance again holds weariness, along with a quiet dread. “You refer to the fact that it sings only as night is falling?”
“Yes,” Thrawn said. “You do not expect your stand to succeed, do you?”
“I know that it won’t succeed,” Nightswan said.
“That does not necessarily mean the end. I can give orders for you to be taken unharmed.”
“They’ll be ignored. Half the troops here are Batonn Defense, and Restos is determined to get rid of me.”
“Then come with me now.”
“A man must do what he must, Admiral Thrawn. Even if his stand is against the fall of eternal night.”

Then~come~with~me~now~
下一秒被尤拉伦抓到了显得更加的，🏳️‍🌈❓

啊哦阿林达变得好残忍！比这本书所有人都更像反派啊！
下一本就是义军时期的故事了，我终于catch up了…🥺

最后这几章好多感情，淡淡的伤心……
And so it was over. The path had ended. The pattern was broken.
The song of the Nightswan was silenced. The galaxy would be the worse for its loss.

-
“I wouldn’t hold my breath,” Vanto said. “Doesn’t matter. I’m quite content to be your aide, Admiral. It’s where I’m supposed to be.”
“Perhaps,” Thrawn said. “Perhaps not.”

-
A friend need not be kept either within sight or within reach. A friend must be allowed the freedom to find and follow his own path.
If one is fortunate, those paths will for a time join. But if the paths separate, it is comforting to know that a friend still graces the universe with his skills, and his viewpoint, and his presence.
For if one is remembered by a friend, one is never truly gone.

打开序章，打死伟大一有机会就要羞辱一下索龙，你们素小学生吗

Time for Thrawn to face his future.
Time for Vader to face his past.
