>born in '00, really liked Star Wars because I saw eps 4/5/6 and 1/2/3 on VHS, then got the Xbox games when I was 5 because I wanted anything SW related >would practice doing flips, and mastered all of the fight choreography from the SW movies in my backyard by the time I was 6>when that wasn't enough, I even started watching movies with sword fights like The Princess Bride, Hero, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon to supplement my lightsaber fighting (the cashier that worked Saturdays at Blockbuster had good recommendations)>every summer from the ages of 5-12, I would ride my bike alone to the park near my house with 3 to 4 plastic lightsabers because my brothers wouldn't play with me>proceeded to play on the jungle gym by myself until other kids showed up >when they did, I'd ask them if they wanted to play SW>if they said yes, I would start fighting them, but never too rough or anything >I also used Force powers from both Kotor and JK games >so I was running around doing little flips and telling other kids using Force Speed, Battle Meditation, etc while I was fighting them>pretty sure all of them thought I was weird >on one particularly bad day, I was 12 and was playing with a "usual" kid from my neighborhood around 5pm>a group of high schoolers comes up to us and asked to play>the kid I was playing with says no and runs back to his parents, whom are watching>even though they're obviously older than me, I think I'm one with the Force>so I challenge all of them to a duel>toss them lightsabers and tell them I'm going to use Force Speed and Battle Meditation before the fight to try and get serious >but they just fucking rush me>everything feels like it's in slow motion>guy on my left swings at my head, hard >when I say "swings hard", it's because they all swung hard enough I could hear the air swoosh in their swings cont.
