Sabé
Dear god, Sabé's love and devotion to Padmé is heartbreaking. My fragile sapphic heart breaks upon thinking about their relationship.
“ Having fallen in love with Amidala, Sabé's love and loyalty towards her friend led her to place Amidala's needs above those of any other beings, including her own, although she knew Amidala could not reciprocate. Although she once advised Amidala to return romantic love to someone who understood her, she was certain Amidala would never return her feelings and assumed her friend would choose something larger than a person to love, such as a planet or species, which left her shocked to discover she had married Anakin Skywalker. She preferred being Amidala's second to being first to anyone else, although this made it difficult to maintain relationships with lovers who could not understand that they would never be more important to her than Amidala. “

about the queen's trilogy #1
i read the queen's trilogy (queen's shadow, queen's peril and queen's hope) a few months ago and i have some opinions that i've already shared with some friends who agreed with what i have to say! i remind everyone that it is exclusively MY opinion, from someone who has padmé as her favorite character and who felt very frustrated reading this trilogy.
i will never take away from ek johnston's fantastic writing, it's really very good (especially in the epilogues, in the book the writing is more common but it's still easy to read and that's a good thing), but my problems are what she did with padmé and her 'development'. i feel like the book has interesting narratives, but never goes too deep into it. of course, there are things that shouldn't be covered, like in queen's peril when it's about qui-gon's burial and there's a quick passage about what he meant to padmé. really, it was a simple and direct take, it wouldn't need any further elaboration because it's something simple.
but there's one thing that's not simple: padmé's emotions. understand me, i'm not saying that the book didn't narrate this, it did, it just didn't narrate it well enough. i love tsabin's character, her reflections and life philosophies are very interesting. it's just that the premise of the book is about queen amidala, senator amidala, about padmé amidala naberrie. having thoughts, speeches and moments about tsabin is extremely necessary too, after all, she was the closest handmaid to padmé with probably the most mixed feelings about her work. but i feel that many moments where tsabin's emotions were worked on, padmé's were not and these moments about sabé could have been used to be about padmé (which is, technically, the main narrative of the books).
It's very interesting to have the narrative about the tsabin, but I feel that even that is not worked on completely or clearly. I feel like Sabé was a character that EK felt safer working with because she didn't have enough content, but I still have frustration about not having enough of Padmé's emotions as a HUMAN. The construction of the persona she created as a queen and as a senator is extremely important, this work was really good, but I feel that the excerpts and paragraphs that portrayed Padmé were not enough. She is such a complex character, but even in her own book they didn't pay enough attention to her! this is very annoying, especially when Padmé is an extremely underestimated character and when she has the chance to show all her anguish, fears, dreams and despair it is shown from just one side.
i like read the narratives of thoughts she has, like how sad she is to see her handmaids (especially sabé) leave, but… and the rest? there are THREE books about her, so i want three books that explore what she felt at each stage of her life! It's extremely important that they focused on the issue of the handmaids of naboo, i'm even in favor of a book entirely about them, but i really wish her personality and impulsiveness had been explored more. padmé is not a perfect character, she is full of flaws and that's why i love her. maybe if the book had focused more on certain points about her reasons for being who she was during star wars, some moments would have been understood and not taken as script flaws (like her taking care of anakin after the tusken massacre or her death in revenge for the sith). i feel that tsabin's emotions and personality were explored more than padmé's.
another thing that bothers me deeply is when people take handmaids relationships as something especially romantic. for me, the focus should be: girls can love, girls can have friends, girls SHOULD love others and it doesn't always have to be romantic. what Sabé feels for padmé is something that is extremely open to various interpretations, my interpretation is a bit extensive and is not limited to just romantic love (which i think is a shame, and in my opinion, hinders the development of tsabin as a character). it's something so much deeper, so beautiful and poetic, but it's not always necessarily romantic. when ALL the handmaids say “my hands are yours” it’s not about loving each other with the intention of marriage and all (well, we have saché and yané but im talking about they relationship with padmé!), it’s about dedicating yourself to each other. honestly, this whole culture of shipping and wanting to bring couples together ruins a lot of things and that is included in this book. i understand some people, obviously, interpret sabé's love as something romantic, but limit it exclusively to that? no, my goodness, never! tsabin is a character who, amazingly, lived being someone's shadow for years, but still when they insist on talking about padmé to tsabin they only attribute the romantic and 'cute' side of it all. this complaint is perhaps more for the fandom than the books themselves, but i think if the writing had been more specific about tsabin's insecurities or how she managed to love herself and evolve later, people would interpret it differently (when i said this i want to say: people would interpret it not ONLY as a romantic love).
i'm never saying that it's wrong to like character y with character x, no! i'm just saying that i find the view that love is just about romance limiting, and that it is extremely problematic to attribute women to a single type of love as if that were a woman's role. of course, not everyone who likes sabédala, for example, thinks too much about it, sometimes they just want wlw representation and that's okay (although almost no one talks about saché and yané… they are married and have children, but where are the people talking about them? anyway! they should be talked about more), but tbh i can't take this ship seriously due to the fact that padmé never loved her in any other way and this is mentioned in the books.
i love the anguish that surrounds padmé's relationships, a lot is said about the tragedy of anakin skywalker, but what about the tragedy that surrounds padmé amidala? the people she trusts most left at some point in her life, the only person she loved romantically was possessed by darkness, she didn't even have the chance to raise her own children! are you seeing? reflections like these could have been covered in depth in the book, padmé is an extremely deep character and little is said about her. anyway! these were my complaints, maybe i'll say more and if you want to discuss or ask me something i'll definitely be willing to talk. kisses, seen you'll soon with more star wars (maybe hot) takes!

I can’t get over the parallels between Sabédala and Codywan. Another example of Star Wars being like poetry. I wish we could’ve seen more of Obi Wan and Padmé’s friendship because it’s clear they were close. Padmé trusted Obi Wan with her children in her very last moments of life and he was there for her long after she was gone.
They both have this burden of responsibility over these people who love them. They have power over them and they’re both very aware of that fact. Neither is the kind of person to ever exploit the other person and they know they probably shouldn’t feel the way they do but it can’t be helped. That makes them reluctant to act on their feelings but doesn’t make the feelings any less intense. How could you not love someone like that? Someone who truly believes in your cause, not because they’re told that they should but because they genuinely believe in it and trust and care about you. You can’t understand why they’re so dedicated. You can’t pinpoint what it is exactly that you did to deserve such admiration but this only seems to make them more dedicated to you. It’s a lot of responsibility to deal with and it isn’t something Padmé and Obi Wan take lightly.
And then we have Cody and Sabé who, yes, are obligated to follow Obi Wan and Padmé due to the roles they play but would also choose to so if they had the freedom to do so. They’ve more than earned that respect. Padmé and Obi Wan do not expect Sabé and Cody to die for them (if anything they actively try to prevent it) although it’s a very real possibility for both of them, which only makes Sabé and Cody more willing to do it.
But, of course, the real tragedy is both end up essentially outliving their person. They have to live in a world without them. Sabé because Padmé is truly gone and Cody because he has no idea Obi Wan is still alive. He thinks he killed him and Sabé probably feels a similar guilt. Neither actually did anything wrong (because Cody didn’t have his free will) but that doesn’t make it hurt less. They were meant to protect these people and they feel like they completely failed them and there will never be any real justice.
This was much happier when I started typing it…

Sometimes if Sabé were to stare at her Queen’s painted face for a moment too long, she would notice the flaws. She’d notice the powder in her laugh-lines, a pore Rabé hadn’t been able to hide well enough in her attempt to turn her face into a blank slate, pale and easy to turn into something she’s not. 
In those moments, Sabé is given the feeling of satisfaction, for just a moment, that the idea of Amidala is just as unachievable for Padme as it is for her, that when she is turned blank and pale, it’s not so easy for her, too.
And then— after those uncanny, rare moments, Padme is back in action as soon as she is caught by the eyes that know her best; she is fierce as a weapon with her sharp tongue and calculated breaths. Her expression is as pinched as it is convincing. Blank, pale. An uncomfortable dress pillowing out like a delicate, poisonous flower. Jewels simmering all around her, shiny enough to have Sabé’s own ghostly expression reflecting back on her.
Sabé, as always, notes that she will never find solidarity in Padme, despite how tenderly they have grown to latch onto each other. All the soft, fleshy parts of Padme’s girlhood are stripped as soon as her headpiece is on and she is a commanding force, looking unnervingly beautiful and deity-like.
As a Queen, that is what she is. A deity. She belongs to no one but her people. And who is Sabé, boring and nothing noteworthy at all to claim Padme Naberrie as her own, let alone Amidala?
It’s a selfish thought, to want the vulnerable bits of her, the washed face and overnight lip masks that contain her high-pitched giggles and gossip, but the stupid, desperate part of Sabé cannot help but hopelessly want. 
She wants her unbrushed hair and grimy teeth in the morning, sparse leg hair grown before it is waxed, leaving the skin red and burnt. She wants the side of Padme that is completely sheathed away— from the politics, the Galaxy, and even to her own self, to the point where not even Amidala is powerful enough to touch her. 
Selfish thought indeed.
Sabé comes to the same conclusion every night laying in her oversized plush bed, listening to Padme’s soft breaths ringing in her ears, and knows that she’ll have to let it pass, otherwise it will consume her entirely.

Just realized there’s two genres of lesbian Star Wars ships I have
1. Built on deep love and respect. Trust each other the most out of anyone. However even that isn’t enough, circumstances forced them apart, and they have to let the girl go for the sake of their job, life and a little bit for the mental health but a part of you still loves them despite everything and know you always will, it’s just right person wrong time
Ex: Sabédala, VelCinta, Barrisokka and Kaesoka, Blyla (I saw lesbian Blyla and transbian Bly and I’m obsessed now), Syl and Jordanna would fall into this but they stopped being disaster lesbians long enough to have actually fixed it
2. Started as enemies but felt a deep kinship despite that tension, slow burn, found their home in each other, despite everything going against them, including their own self-sabotaging, they are able to push through and make it work
Ex: WolfWren, Yrichass, Revan x Bastila, Saché x Yané, Aphra and Sana and/or Magna will probably end up here
