*****终于到训练部分了*****

普雷先把PPT带回了自己娘家（不对）麦基托，一个冷得跟霍斯一样的星球，缪恩人无所谓啦，三颗心脏热血沸腾，PPT穿了保暖衣还冻成狗啊！普雷跟没事人一样在那边发表演讲巴拉巴拉，最后把对方衣服也扒了（哟~~）。西斯就是这点好，在训练上很直接：

I am your torturer, Sidious. Soon you will make every effort to appease me

↑appease这词很微妙啊！微微的色气就是这么一点点叠加而成的……普雷的准则是要把compassion之类情感从PPT体内逼出来就要逼他一遍遍说自己怎么杀了全家的……没有大背景我还以为这是变态DOM/SUB关系呢……

If you don’t already want to murder me, you will before I’m through with you,” he was saying. “The urge to kill one’s superior is intrinsic to the nature of our enterprise. My unassailable strength gives rise to your envy; my wisdom fuels your desire; my achievements incite your craving. Thus has it been for one thousand years, and so it must endure until I’ve guided you to parity. Then, Sidious, we must do our best to sabotage the dynamic Darth Bane set in motion, because we will need each other if we’re to realize our ultimate goals. In the end there can be no secrets between us; no jealousy or mistrust. From us ium coin to the dark side.

“So appease me, Sidious. Tell me again how you killed them.”

Sidious steadied himself on the scree slope, the jagged stones beneath his bloody palms, elbows and knees quivering, as if yearning to immerse themselves in the frigid waters of the crystalline blue lake at the base of the near sheer incline. A few meters above sat Plagueis, cross-legged atop a flat-topped outcropping, his back turned to Sidious and his gaze seemingly fixed on the blinding snowfields that blanketed the mountain’s summit.

“If you don’t already want to murder me, you will before I’m through with you,” he was saying. “The urge to kill one’s superior is intrinsic to the nature of our enterprise. My unassailable strength gives rise to your envy; my wisdom fuels your desire; my achievements incite your craving. Thus has it been for one thousand years, and so it must endure until I’ve guided you to parity. Then, Sidious, we must do our best to sabotage the dynamic Darth Bane set in motion, because we will need each other if we’re to realize our ultimate goals. In the end there can be no secrets between us; no jealousy or mistrust. From us the future of the Sith will fountain, and the diverse beings of the galaxy will be better for it. Until then, however, you must strive; you must demonstrate your worthiness, not merely to me but to the dark side. You must take the hatred you feel for me and transform it into power—the power to overcome, to forbid anything from standing in your path, to surmount whatever obstacle the dark side designs to test you.

普雷继续对冻成狗的PPT长篇大论自己要废除二人法则。这货已经开始想象和PPT缠缠绵绵到永远的邪恶生活了（shiiiiiiiiiit）。PPT已经几天没吃没睡了想杀了普雷结果又被玩弄了——由此看出西斯都是没事找事，把徒弟XXX以后难道不指望徒弟来杀么……

接下来是光剑训练，PPT被打得遍体鳞伤问how much longer普雷以为他是问还有多久结束torture，然而PPT问是还有多久结束西斯学徒训练。顺便普雷还在那边扯啊人类啊人类多么的脆弱~~我们不像以往的西斯那样诉诸暴力我们是未来的建筑师~~（I think you just like hearing your voice, Plagueis...）PPT对至少还有10年才能成熟表示绝望。

*********第二部分开始了**********

一晃11年过去了，俩西斯去某星球训练。就是屠杀了一大堆野生动物释放野性。恩，这很西斯，还很好玩。坐下来休息以后普雷就开始对PPT讲自己的性生活（不对）。

Few of my people are aware of just how wealthy I am,” he said at last, “since most of my riches derive from activities that have nothing to do with the ordinary business of finance. For many years my peers wondered why I chose to remain unwed, and ultimately reached the conclusion that I was in essence married to my work, without realizing how right they were. Except that my real bride is the dark side of the Force. What the ancients called Bogan, as separate from Ashla.

还暗示PPT以后会和自己一样毁容:(但值得啊！

Sidious watched the last of the brush fires burn out, then said, “Will I eventually be physically transformed?”

“Into some aged, pale-skinned, raspy-voiced, yellow-eyed monster, you mean. Such as the one you see before you.” Plagueis gestured to himself, then lowered himself to the ground. “Surely you are acquainted with the lore: King Ommin of Onderon, Darths Sion and Nihilus. But whether it will happen to you, I can’t say. Know this, though, Sidious, that the power of the dark side does not debilitate the practitioner as much as it debilitates those who lack it.” He grinned with evil purpose. “The power of the dark side is an illness no true Sith would wish to be cured of.”

第二段训练讲普雷带PPT面对机器人。然后又是一小段外貌描写。普雷要为PPT修长精致的手点个赞，也为他优雅的光剑点个赞。↓

Plagueis hadn’t allowed his young apprentice to wield a lightsaber until a few years earlier, but Sidious was brandishing one now, self-constructed of phrik alloy and aurodium, and powered by a synthetic crystal. Made for delicate, long-fingered hands—as much a work of art as a weapon—the lightsaber thrummed as he waved the blade from side to side in front of him.

普雷还表示西斯holocron少看，真正的知识都是师徒传递的。fucking sith possessiveness.

Taking a bite from the warrior’s heart, he passed the blood-filled organ to his apprentice.

↑杀完野兽杀完机器人就到杀人了。最后还有丹尼尼斯吃马心段落（不对）。现在我满脑子都是川普是个西斯，为了美帝精英统治的未来必需先表示我要关怀广大劳动人民。PPT和川普需要弹冠相庆（不对）

The woman blinked, then laughed with him. “A friend of mine was asking about Senator Kim earlier. Is he married?”

“For many years, and happily,” Palpatine told her.

“And you?” she said, turning to him again.

“Frequent travel forbids it.”

She watched him over the rim of the wineglass. “Married to politics, is that it?”

“To the work,” he said.

“To the work,” Doriana said, raising his glass in a toast.

Just twenty-eight, Palpatine wore his reddish hair long, in the tradition of Naboo statesmen, and dressed impeccably. Many who encountered the ambassador described him as an articulate, charismatic young man of refined taste and quiet strength. A good listener, even-tempered, politically astute, astonishingly well informed for someone who had only been in the game for seven years. A patrician at a time when few could claim the title, and destined to go far. Well traveled, too, courtesy of his position as Naboo’s ambassador-at-large but also as the sole surviving heir to the wealth of House Palpatine. Long recovered from the tragedy that had struck his family more than a decade earlier, but perhaps as a result of being orphaned at seventeen, something of a loner. A man whose love of periodic solitude hinted at a hidden side to his personality

↑讲真，这段第三人视角对PPT的描写真tmd杰克苏……OFC开始对PPT的love life产生兴趣了，得给她点根蜡烛，后面还给PPT塞电话号码23333333然而转手就被PPT塞给其他人了:(

↑PPT是长头发哦，长头发哦！！虚荣的纳布人，天天就知道换衣服做头发:(

Taking her glossy lower lip between her teeth, she reached for her wineglass once more. “Are you perhaps a Jedi mind reader disguised in ambassadorial robes?”

“Anything but.”

“I’ve often wondered whether they have secret relationships,” she said in a conspiratorial voice. “Gallivanting around the galaxy, using the Force to seduce innocent beings.”

绝地节操不保，看看第三人视角都怎么看你们的。啧啧。用force采花啧啧。↑

The life he had been leading—as the noble head of House Palpatine, legislator, and most recently ambassador-at-large—was nothing more than the trappings of an alter ego; his wealth, a subterfuge; his handsome face, a mask. 

PPT知道自己长得不错嘛！所以秘密睡遍全议会不无可能（不对）。↑

“The flimsi-card that woman slipped you,” Vidar said. “I suppose you entertained her with the usual tall tales.”

Palpatine shrugged in a guileless manner. “I may have said something about getting to know the galaxy.”

“Getting to know the galaxy’s women, he means,” Doriana interjected.

这句大概是确认他真的睡遍了不知道啥吧……可以和老王交流一下心得“为啥走到哪里都有女人贴上来，难道是因为红毛？”↑

“I quite enjoyed the Podraces,” Palpatine said as he sat down.

所以PA真的可以交流啊……↑

“It is my understanding that Naboo embraced the arrangement,” Ranulph Tarkin said.

啊，塔金爹↑

While Kim was excusing himself, Palpatine dropped into the Force. Conversation at the table grew faint, and the physical forms of Pax Teem and the others became indistinct—more like blurs of lambent energy. He kept himself still as a disturbing echo reached him. By the time an ashen Kim was returning to the table, Palpatine was already out of his seat and hurrying to meet him.

“What is it? What’s happened?”

Kim stared at him as if from another world. “They’re dead. Everyone. My wife, my sons …”

And he collapsed sobbing against Palpatine’s shoulder.

这算不算老娘舅？？？小娘舅？？？Kim是PPT的导师（不是sidious的，of course）此处应有BGM——

But if you wanna cry

Cry on my shoulder

If you need someone who cares for you

If you're feeling sad your heart gets colder

Yes I show you what real love can do

然而Kim则还在担心PPT家族后继无人，这是啥催婚的另类形式……

“I have only one hope for a family, Palpatine, one hope.” Kim’s eyes were red-rimmed and brimming with tears. “Ronhar.”

Palpatine compressed his lips in uncertainty. “He is a Jedi Knight, Vidar. His family is the Order.”

Kim was insistent. “I need him more than the Order needs him. Only he can carry the Kim line forward—just as you will someday carry on the Palpatine line.”

Palpatine said nothing.

PPT去某星球，就被塞了馍儿——这里和canon矛盾了吧，canon里塔尔金主母是馍儿和奥普莱斯的娘，这里不是啊。还是说Mother Talzin的意思是所有人都是她儿女……另外，原来Maul是大槌的意思啊23333333大槌尊主2333333333333333333333

“The Jedi will have to be felled from within,” Sidious said, his eyes tracking Plagueis as the Muun paced the floor. “Lured into a trap of their own devising, as you said we will do with Veruna.”

Plagueis stopped to regard him. “Follow that thought.”

Sidious took a moment. “We will have to exploit their vanity and blind obedience to the Republic,” he said with greater confidence, and as if the truth of it should be obvious. “They must be made to appear the enemies of peace and justice rather than the guardians.”

“The enemies of peace and justice rather than the guardians,” Plagueis repeated, in revelation. “Even the survivors of a purge would be forced into hiding …” Coming back to himself, he cut his gaze to Sidious. 

Coming back to himself, he cut his gaze to Sidious. “Great care has to be taken not to turn them into martyrs, Darth Sidious—if in the end we want the beings of the galaxy to turn their backs to the light side of the Force.”

“Forceful beings will continue to be born.”

“In the absence of training and brainwashing, they will pose no harm to us. You will see to that, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.”

Sidious looked at the floor and shook his head. “You should be the one, Master.”

“No,” Plagueis said firmly. “It must be you. You have the political skills, and more to the point, you are a human. In this era only a human is capable of rising to the top of Coruscant’s biased political heap.”

“Human or not, my knowledge of the dark side will never equal yours. The title, the crown, should be yours.”

“And it will be, once you openly appoint me co-chancellor. Feared and respected by the galaxy’s most powerful beings, Hego Damask will be seen as a windfall for the Republic. But even then I will advise only in secret from behind your throne.”

Sidious bowed his head in deference. “In the annals of Sith history, you will be known as Plagueis the Wise.”

Plagueis quirked a cunning smile. “You flatter me.”

“Whatever you ask of me, Master, I will do it.”

所以说PPT弄死普雷前的10分钟演讲不一定全是吹。让绝地从内部瓦解这个的确是PPT想到的。

然后他又开始拍师父马屁了……那叫一个自如_(:з」∠)_

“师父您来当议长”

“不不你来，议院种族歧视……”

“承让了师父谢谢！”

这张是讲俩西斯旁观the Gathering的，普雷还趁PPT不备force（调）choke（戏）了他一下。这里就很微妙了，PPT好像把这次force choke看做两人增进友谊的试炼？？？这是在说两情相悦么……PPT说普雷是plagueis the wise的时候是真心实意的啊~~~然而……普雷刚安抚完PPT就说，去，你去把你的导师Vidar Kim弄死，哦，我的意思是你监督一个刺客完成这个任务。↓

Recalling Plagueis’s surprise Force choke, he pledged also never again to lower his guard. But he viewed the lesson as part of the process of their learning to rely on each other and forge themselves into a team. United in the dark side, they could keep no secrets; there could be no chance of one being able to act without the other being aware. They had to learn to see through each other.

Palpatine hadn’t been attempting to flatter Plagueis when he had called him wise—not entirely, at any rate. The Muun was powerful beyond Palpatine’s present understanding. The only being capable of guiding the galaxy into the future. A crescendo. At times it was difficult to grasp that they would see in their lifetime the fall of the Republic and the annihilation of the Jedi Order, and yet Palpatine seemed to know it to be true. A grand design was unfolding, in which he wasn’t merely a player but an architect.

然而后面PPT过后开始怀疑，因为杀死kim对让trade federation介入有阻碍作用，对西斯大业没好处啊。一定是普雷不想让我得势，说个P的废弃二人法则啊！你在撒谎在撒谎！！说刺杀不让我插手是为了保证我不会被卷入，好让我身份保密，但一定是你认为我不够格，你不信任我，不信任我！（不知道邱森万是不是觉得这想法很熟悉啊……）

PPT去见Kim，发现对方要通过身为绝地的儿子和绝地联系，暴露纳布的权钱交易。还把家财托付给PPT了……说万一儿子不回来自己又死了啥的……

然后他就真被杀手弄死了……但是绝地介入调查了，尽管不知道具体的纳布的政治风波。

*******开始酒池肉林章节了*************

PPT终于当上议员啦！他租了个小公寓，搬了一大堆艺术品进去（谁当年口嫌体直地对普雷说自己对艺术没啥追求的？）还有第一把光剑——可怜，还得藏在盒子里……

PPT当上议长了还指望师父能夸一夸啥的，结果呢……普雷和其他缪恩人跑去塞里诺了……↓

Otherwise, Plagueis’s silence on the matter of Kim’s assassination had been deafening. On learning that King Tapalo had appointed Palpatine interim Senator, Plagueis had offered his congratulations, but nothing more. After months of not seeing him, Palpatine had hoped to find Plagueis waiting for him on Coruscant, but Hego Damask and the Muuns who made up Damask Holdings were conducting unspecified business on distant Serenno.

PPT开始和小kim接触了。小kim表示几周前我才知道我爹是纳布参议员啊！看到这里我只能说大概发现自己显赫身份的绝地都是自己不小心发现的……大概dooku这个姓氏很少见……

PPT发现自己可以hide in plain sight以后就开始拍绝地马屁了。啊当年绝地议长统治全银河系啊，啊现在统治的精英只是exceptional，而每个绝地都是extraordinary。真tmd会拍。

然后他就把小kim给俘获了。原来PPT一直鼓吹政客-绝地联盟是从这时候就开始的吗……

回到塞里诺，绝地男子天团杜库奎刚塞佛迪亚斯+Nu夫人。特立独行的奎刚在其他三人都坐下来的时候坚持站着……作者描写了一下三个人的胡子（三人都蓄须但是都不同，作者真是有聊……）——杜库山羊胡，赛佛满下巴都是，奎刚的特别茂密……普雷格斯本来打算回避这三人的，结果一听有杜库马上来了精神……还脑内杜库衣着品味独特政治观独特。

普雷是不想替换西帝啦（PPT真该谢谢你忠贞不二……）但还是在想怎么利用杜库。

普雷和绝地男子天团开始对话，和奎刚的对话不欢而散，奎刚地哦啊头就走，杜库还得给他打圆场（看来奎刚这辈子有无数人帮他擦屁股……）。然后就是普雷给赛佛种草共和国药丸需要军队……

强烈怀疑Nu夫人参加这次任务是作为三个男绝地之间的润滑油（这听上去怎么辣么基……）。

2个月后，PPT在议会这边有开会，杜库赛佛和小kim参会，然后普雷竟然也来了。PPT发现他和俩绝地认识，就开始怀疑师父要替换他（真没安全感啊……）。这次会议的目的就是借着2月前kim议员被刺杀而共和国警察和绝地不作为，宣布纳布等星球拒绝就贸易联盟的事投票……导致贸易联盟被扔出议会的决意没有通过。
