✧ Sixth Rebellion ✧ A Calm and Pleasant Life Is Not For Me [Action]
Closed to Han -
[After three weeks as a child, waking up as her adult self again is a bit of a change. She remembers everything that transpired and grimaces at most of it. The time she spent with Padmé was nice, almost like her childhood with both Sabé and Breha around. However, she doesn't reflect easily on a few interactions.
Luckily, she's always worn loose pyjamas to bed and she's not a very large woman, so walking around in the night gown she fell asleep in isn't too uncomfortable. And the fact that it's very early in the morning helps so that no one sees her steal from the guest room where Luke put her and into the room she normally shares with Han.
She finds him asleep in their bed and she realizes just how much she's missed him, despite seeing him everyday. It... was definitely not the same and she can only imagine the pain he must of gone through to find his already younger wife changed into a girl only a few years older than their daughter. Instead of climbing into the bed with him, she sits on the empty side, amused that he is holding her pillow while he sleeps.
After she's had enough time to calm herself, Leia leans forward and gently touches Han's shoulder. It should be enough to wake him up. He's never been a very heavy sleeper.]
You know, I might have wanted my pillow back.
House 46 Residents
[Hello, family. Instead of a cute little girl at the breakfast table waiting for food to magically appear like it always does, today you get a slightly tired but happy to be normal again woman. Enjoy the slight normalcy as she attempts to drink a cup of coffee and make pancakes for everyone without burning them.]
Around the village -
[Despite her lovely little Shift, Leia is going about her business as if things over the last three weeks haven't changed. She stops off at the Library to return some books she borrowed. She visits both Seventh Heaven and the cafe that Helios runs above it to check in with her former cooking instructors. She makes a stop at the smithy to bring Han (and Sokka, she hopes), lunch from the restaurant. Her final stop is the Battle Dome, where she spends an hour practicing with her lightsaber, trying to get the feel of it in her hands again to not be awkward.]

Bit of a Catch-22 there.]
The fact that every Jedi in the enclosure vouched for him might have had something to do with it.
no subject
Still waters ran deep though, and Padmé would get to the bottom of it, in due course.]
How lucky for him. No doubt things could have been made quite difficult.
no subject
I don't know how I could have made it any more difficult. His wife was suddenly ten years old and didn't trust him. I'd say it was already beyond the complicated stage.
no subject
[Which is the first thing that comes to Padmé's mind. Had she not run in to Luke or Anakin, as she assumes they both spoke of Han, then she likely might have. Not that Padmé could really speak, not having met him, at least not yet.]
no subject
[Or maybe he just knows Leia too well to let her remain wary of him, no matter her age.]
Besides, I watched him for the week in between our two conversations. He's not untrustworthy, despite his appearance.
Have you not had the chance to actually speak with him yourself?
[Odd, considering all the time they've lived in the same house now.]
no subject
She did give her daughter a little look at that. After all, she had only visited her a few times- in fact, she could count the number of times on one hand, and there would be more fingers left uncounted.]
No. He wasn't there that time with the tea, and even if I did walk past him, I honestly don't even know what he looks like.
no subject
Hm, you should come to the house. I can introduce the two of you. Perhaps for dinner? I was planning on doing tonight's cooking anyway. [She laughs at that, not 100% sure that she's really good at it, but Han hasn't complained the handful of times she's done it since she first did.] Nothing fancy, but it might be healthier than Han's leaning of Corellian-like cuisine.
no subject
Thank you. If it doesn't put you out, I would love that. [Before giving a smile.] And while fancy can be welcome, I would always choose my mother's meals over anything else, if given the choice. I'm sure it will be lovely.
no subject
Adding another person to dinner is no trouble. And even if it was, I would still like to do it. The last time when you were here, you and Han did most of the cooking.
no subject
Then I would love the opportunity.
no subject
[Which is rare and something that her mother might be familiar with considering Anakin.]
no subject
There is no need, at least on my account.
no subject
Well, it would be nice to have dinner with my husband while he's clean every once in a while. I think we're all due that.
no subject
[No doubt he would have already had an impression of her from before.]
no subject
So, we'll see you tonight then?

Yes, I'm looking forward to it.

Thank you.
