Hm, how did I miss this? What was I doing? Oh, it was earnings I was in hell.
Okay, I say "my love" in rl. I confess. Usually not every other sentence though, unless I am being sarcastic. I can see Carth saying it. Malak...totally would say it. Canderous...no.
Re: sex and the romance. I dunno...I really do have this belief that sex, while great, is not the end-all be all culminating thnigie. There's no rule that says every culture in the Star Wars galaxy has hang ups about it either. Many may not. I picture the Fleet as kinda like Starship Troopers, or Peacekeepers in Farscape. People have sex. It passes the time. I suspect half the Padawans in the Jedi Temple were making out in the bushes in the Meditation Garden...they just didn't talk about it, because it was against the rules. Much like boarding school or summer camp.
Any fiction that makes a big deal of it one way or the other, bugs me, although I admit being more bugged by the not getting around to it than the shagging all the time. (As long as I don't have to read about the shagging...all...the time. In moderation okay.)
You know, a bad cheating Morgana could be good. I thought about having them have an imperfect marriage, only to create a Morgana that would be in contrast to Pris's, who's pretty much canon. Decided against it though because I didn't want to suggest that moral fabrication that Revan is better than Morgana was. Because whatever Morgana did, obviously she didn't sack worlds.
