She thought she was concealing it well enough, feigning confidence just enough to eliminate the exhaustion. She was never really one for taking things slow, anyway. Much too many things to do between preparations and practice, so as the handmaiden donned the queen’s wardrobe, her gaze wanders over to the true queen.
@motherliberty how long has it been since you’ve slept ?
“ And here i thought I was hiding it so well. ” A jest in an effort to ease worry, the decoy gives Padmé a reassuring smile. “ I’m fine, really. ”

It’s not the worse pain he’s felt, but it’s still agonizing. Fire is unforgiving, and some part of him knows that it’s only an echo of the pain his former padawan felt as he lay upon black glass sand and was consumed. He thinks of that, the thought loud and persistent, even more than the burns on his flesh, the melted cloth against skin, the way the heat had licked at the entire length of him, his arms, his legs, his face. And then nothing.
Blissful surrender to the dark, ushered in quickly enough that he’s not entirely sure his vision of Tala above him is real. The pain isn’t what wakes him. It’s the phantom smell of smoke and charred flesh and when he opens his eyes, it’s unfamiliar. He groans softly, his eyes adjusting to the low light of the room. Ambient, almost. For his comfort. But he’s not in a hospital. Nothing so luxurious. A drip is attached to him, and he is too fuzzy to be alarmed. Pain killers. That explains the acrid taste at the back of his throat. Something beeps, some monitor on his chest, and he’s covered in bandages. A few bacta patches, if he’s correct.
“Erm,” He begins, his throat scratchy. He tries again, louder now. “Hello?”
The door slides open almost immediately and standing there is a ghost. It can’t be. He’d watched her die. He’d handed her body to those entrusted with her funeral. He’d seen her, ten years ago, fade from life before his very eyes and yet, it can be no one else. Framed and backlit by cool white light, she is an angel. “Padmé?” He rasps, his voice incredulous, his discomfort immediately forgotten. He moves to stand, stumbling to a half standing position, using the bed to steady himself, whatever sedative he'd been under lingering still.

starter call - @motherliberty
❝ . . . do i know you ? ❞ there was something about her that seemed so familiar , like with Old Ben when he first saw the strange hermit as a child . an answer just at the edge of his awareness , something that seemed like it should be so obvious yet he couldn’t place it . it was more than just feeling like he’s seen her before , however ( ------ though , that feeling was strong as well . he looked at her and saw another . AREN’T YOU A LITTLE SHORT FOR A STORMTROOPER ? ) but like he should know her . the Force called to him in a way not dissimilar to how it was whenever Leia’s around . strange , but curious . ❝ i’m Luke Skywalker , i’m one of the commanders on base here . ❞

he and breha have been trying to think of a way for padme to see leia , to be in her life , without arousing suspicion. it seems to be impossible. not only is padme meant to be in hiding , but as leia grows older , now six , she looks more and more like her birth mother. would she notice? would she ask why? even now , on holo call with his friend , it has him distracted. out of sorts. “ i’m sorry -- what was that? ”

@motherliberty / plotted starter. modern verse.
𝚒𝚝’𝚜 𝚊 𝚖𝚒𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚕𝚎 𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚠𝚎𝚍 𝚊𝚝 𝚊𝚕𝚕. nerves ate him from the inside out, anakin’s fingers & eyes glued to the droid counterpart strapped in a seatbelt in his backseat. years of his studies poured into his invention, nights too long & his project seemingly impossible. it has never been seen before despite his five year long endurance & it will finally be today that he unveils it to the city. after his mother passed, anakin was left only with the brief connections she made through her political life. senator palpatine became anakin’s savior, funding his university tuition in the name of his dear friend & allowing anakin the opportunity now to repay him with the show of his work. the dinner would begin soon with or without him, though he cannot bear the idea of an empty seat & disappointment he can only imagine.
there were only a few select guests that would witness his introduction. senator palpatine himself, a few companies anakin pitched his droid to and a few other curious politicians invited by palpatine himself. anakin practiced his speech tirelessly for weeks leading up to the scheduled dinner, throat raw & dry, tongue numbly clinging to his syllables. confidence never was a problem for anakin - he learned the language of business. what key words caught the eyes of eager companies. he knows that once he begins, he’ll only accept victory.
the senator clinks his water glass then, bringing attention toward the front of the dinner table, anakin has gone through his speech exactly five more times in his head.
❛❛ i do believe we have an exciting guest tonight, ❜❜ the senator says, face nodding towards him. ❛❛ anakin skywalker has brought his latest creation to showcase and gift to myself. anakin? ❜❜
eyes slide across the guests before he’s standing & tipping his wine for one last boost of confidence. fingers rest on the covered droid standing beside him, clearing his throat.
❛❛ thank you all for joining, ❜❜ he begins, gaze sliding to meet every single guest with unwavering confidence. ❛❛ the future of droids is like the galaxy itself. the more we search the more we find, the more. . . to discover as our knowledge grows. as an undergraduate at kyber university, i thought about that push for knowledge and discovery, and where that would take me. i knew i wanted to make droids, ❜❜ & now anakin smiles, his university years spent in his mother’s garage, hands aching with overuse & expensive parts scattered across the floor. ❛❛ but droids weren’t new. there were ones for assistance, for creating, for destroying. just about anything, really. but i began to wonder. . . what about droids that, like medics, are intelligent enough to understand organic species’ emotions, change their analytics to match & serve as trauma companions? ❜❜
anakin’s voice has quickened just slightly - excitement evident in the step he takes forward, in the slight widened eyes. ❛❛ when i was young i - ❜❜
his words are cut when he hears movement that does not come from their table, head tilting to find the cause.

// @motherliberty liked for a starter //
there's a bittersweet air about things as he stands there, in front of someone that he's spent the past years thinking he let down. there's a euphoria, a sweetness that swells at seeing her, but compiled with everything he's seen and been through, those aches come up again and it draws a saddened sigh from the once-knight.
"they'll always haunt me." the words come quietly, an admission. a secret shared, but with padme, hasn't there always been a safety in such things? "i don't think that ever goes away. i imagined with time that the ghosts might disappear, but they just seem to linger on." a shake of his head, and obi-wan straightens up, tries for a smile.
"but perhaps we don't have to linger on old hurts." tell her, you need to tell her what happened. he shuts down the thought, swallowing thickly. "let me tell you all about how wonderful your daughter was."

This sigh isn’t concealed, and made very evident so that Padmé could see it. She didn’t like this idea one bit, she’d much rather say by her side. Dressed simple and plain, the handmaiden finds herself pacing the room awaiting for the time that she had to leave.
‘ you will have a fine time of it, i can tell you. ’ @motherliberty
“ I don’t like this. ” she argues back, stopping her pacing and hiding fidgeting fingers beneath long sleeves. “ Why is it that you’re sending me ? Why not a guard ? Is there something you’re not telling me ? ”

sticky situations / @motherliberty sent: “ i’ll try to find us somewhere to spend the night . ”
HE HUGGED HIS ARMS AROUND HIMSELF AS he hovered closer to his mother , wide cerulean eyes looking around at the assortment of life - forms milling about around them . there were so many , and they all towered over them . some eyed them in a way that made Luke nervous . he wasn’t sure why they were there , but he knew his mother had it taken care of . still , at his mother’s words the boy looked up nervously . ❝ is it safe here ? ❞

WARM TOUCH. you are the embodiment of a cozy blanket and warm sunshine on a cool day. you give the best hugs, they are truly powerful. you embrace others with your big heart and feel everything to the max. you have a gift for uplifting others and raising the mood of whatever situation you are in. you can easily read the room and give your attention to who needs it the most. you are a joy to be around. others feel at home around you, which leads to lasting meaningful relationships. sometimes, though, you neglect yourself by putting others first. you feel that you will not be loved if you don't care for others. it can be hard to constantly put up a happy facade, i know. but remember, you are worthy of love.

"Sometimes I wonder if the Republic even cares about the slaves in the Outer Rim," Anakin confessed. He didn't mean her, never her, but everyone else...they seemed ambivalent. At best, nothing ever seemed to change and at worst, they were actively ignoring it. He picked at a thread on his tunic. "I know you'd end it if you could, but you can't do it on your own. I wish the Jedi would. I wish I could go back and free all of Tatooine."

the jedi knight quietly stepped into the apartment he had come to call his own ; trying his best to stay as quiet as possible, hoping to surprise his wife with his early return to coruscant. he wasn’t expected to return for another week or so, but the council had wished for their jedi generals to briefly return to the temple, giving anakin the chance to surprise his wife and spend what little time they had before he was called back to the front.
he slowly stepped through the door frame to their veranda, eyes meeting her back and a soft smile tugged at the corner of his lips. quickly his head snapped over to threepio, who had already spotted the jedi’s return but anakin was quick to raise a finger to his lips, in hopes of keeping the droid silent as he approached padmé. silent steps were taken, until he was close enough and ever so gently, he wrapped his arms around her, pressing his chin down upon her shoulder. ❛ guess who? ❜

“You know Anakin Skywalker?”
That shouldn’t be surprising, Ferus supposes; from what he can tell most everyone knows of Anakin, even if few seem to know him as a person. But Ferus did know Anakin and that’s what sparks his curiosity.
He remembers him very differently from the way he’s portrayed on the news these days. That’s probably why he asks.
“So is he the hero they’re making him out to be?”

DARK ATTIRE WAS TATTERED , THE EMBLEM on his shoulder had all but been scratched off with only fragments remaining . if it weren’t for the familiar , general construction of his uniform , one might not have known the fragments once formed the Imperial insignia . it had been all he’d known , the only life he’d ever had , but then he realized what could’ve been . what had briefly been . a life on Tatooine . a sister . a family . what and who he would’ve been had the Empire never found him was something Luke would never know , and the grief from that was staggering , as was his anger . the others gave him a wide berth , his power and reputation at his father’s heel was not unknown . he avoided them as well , still struggling to come to terms with this change of pace . Luke sat alone in the Millennium Falcon at the game table , gloved hands resting on top of the dirty surface . he knew @motherliberty had joined him before he saw her or heard her light footsteps , but he did not look up when she joined him , not until her voice washed over him like a gentle breeze , ❝ look at me . ❞ bright blue eyes shining with unshed tears lift from his hands to her , features sent in a deep frown .
