Yes exactly!!! And there's so much other stuff this could have in it -- "Don't call me Harry, scumbag." "Knight Dresden, then." -- And the Outer Rim! and the slavetrade! and Hutts! and Harry not really meaning to crash stuff, it's just that he's got a VERY STRONG talent for telekinesis, okay, and he's not the most emotionally stable guy in the galaxy, and it just... really doesn't go well with complicated machinery. Like ships. And holoprojectors. And sleazy casinos belonging to crimelords. And newly-invented weapons. Thank the Force that lightsabers are fairly simple!
(And of course Marcone knows all about this, so when he kidnaps Harry he makes sure to surround him with ysalamiri to reduce the damage to the ship... and also make him more manageable by a factor of about a million.)
And, wow, I haven't been able to get that particular threesome out of my head since thinking of it. Am trying not to write fic for it, but if I fail, does the OP mind Thrawn/Marcone/Dresden?
The OP's not into threesomes, being kind of an OTP person. This doesn't mean, you shouldn't write it. I'm glad this prompt inspired you. :)
I haven't even thought about Thrawn, I admit, but now that I do... Would Marcone tolerate Empire's presence in his system? Officially, sure. Unofficially? Hmmmm... Thrawn vs. Marcone would be interesting, too.
