Well, my basic response to this could be summed up in one giant, heartfelt "WORD". But I'm feeling nitpicky, so...
Or maybe a story where Jolee or Canderous sit down for that talk with Carth about how Revan needs him and he should move past his issues, and Carth punches them right in the face and tells them to mind their own damn business.
Hee. I like that idea...yeah, Revan's the central character and all, but Carth's got plenty of good reason to act the way he does. Fortunately, I haven't seen much of this, but then I tend to be pretty picky in my fic-reading.
The “Carth & Canderous emote to one another like 14 year old girls” conversation.
I liked it when athenaprime did it, mostly because they were both terminally drunk, and that's about the only way I could see them having a conversation that went past mostly-idle death threats. I actually think Canderous may be more aware of his emotions than Carth is, but that doesn't mean he's gonna talk about 'em.
Atton is not a nice man. In fact, he’s kind of crazy, and in the game he shows absolutely no signs that he is sorry for the fact that he used to torture and kill Jedi. He’s also a complete and utter horndog.
Amen to that. I'm having a lovely time writing redeemable Atton (not redeemed, I hasten to add), but the whole fluffy one-true-love thing makes me absolutely crazy. He's an interesting character, but if you fluffy him up, he's no longer interesting and becomes Stock Love Interest #13,341. (Though I will argue on the "sorry for killing Jedi" point...all the voice acting, for me, pointed to massive denial rather than blithe nonchalance.)
