"'Like me?' What do you mean, 'Like me?'"

I haven't been as good with planting/establishing Shine's horn glow as I'd like to have been...partially because I was concerned about his horn glowing too frequently, and any meaning behind it being lost, but I think I over-corrected...^_^;; I might hafta go through and George Lucas in a few additional instances of his horn glowing. Cuz yeah, it's meant to be in response to him sensing someone who's "like him"--either transformed or about to transform. Well...it's meant to be his powers reacting to the presence of another, but it's not the only reason for his powers to flare. ^_^;; Because that doesn't have a chance of muddying the water at all!
