the concern that she’d had about the two of them getting along with one another had evaporated quickly. what brought people together in the intimate way that suffering did? very little. “he did. you both did.” padmé did not want to intrude too far, though reached forward, gently placing a hand on his forearm. “you felt powerless. i would be hard-pressed to name a worse feeling.”
“ i know , ” he agrees , but his gaze is distant. “ yes. powerless. and afraid. i suppose that sums it up. ” afraid for obi - wan , for the republic , for the thought that he may never see his wife again. his eyes flit back to her , and his lips twitch in some half - hearted attempt at a smile. “ regardless , we will both be fine. i hope to be back to work next week. ”

caestillo ,
her mind is like a sponge. it absorbs & absorbs even when there are days it feels as if there is no more room left for any thoughts but her own. the idea of being able to shield herself is one she finds enticing. ❝ maybe. ❞ she considers softly. ❝ would. be nice. have some…calm. ❞ brows tether once more and she glances down at the floor. ❝ it’s. heavy…knowing. so much. all the time. ❞ there’s another pause before she admits ❝ some. sometimes. feel like. that’s all. i am— ❞ she nods towards the device she’d used to demonstrate. more often than she’d care to admit, she feels like she’s just some tool to use.
“ if you’d like , i will inquire about having someone teach you to shield. i’m certainly no expert , but i don’t see why it wouldn’t work. ” a gentle hand at her shoulder. “ you are certainly more than that , but i understand why you feel that way. once things settle , it won’t be so bad. you are safe here , under the protection of the jedi. they are good people. ”

kyberborne ,
there’s an odd expression on bail’s face –– sadness, regret ? she doesn’t know him well enough to parse it out so she lets it lie, her head falling back to rest on the pillow, but files away his expression for later, deeming it worthy of note. “ so that’s that, then, ” she says finally. there is a heaviness to her chest that won’t quite go away. all of their efforts, for what ? so many men dead and there’s little she can do from her bed. “ all we can do is wait and see. ” and hope.
“ and hope , ” he acknowledges , unknowingly echoing her sentiment. bail bows his head , closes his eyes , and feels every one of these long , terrible years. “ and do as we have always done. fight back. the only other option is to pull the covers over our heads and give up. ”

shesdaylight ,
rapunzel remains unaware of the arrangement bail had made when leia was born, though even if she knew she’d still hold the same excitement. the happiness and joy for bail and breha, shown all around the smile she wears upon her face as she practically scurries from the platform over to the senator, unable to stop herself from jumping into a hug. “i just couldn’t wait a second longer once i heard the news,” she exclaims with a joyous giggle. “you must be so overjoyed!” // @saintorgana + teehee!
overjoyed , exhausted , grieving , awed , worried. yes. he is so many things , all at once -- and some part of him cannot help but feel guilt as well , guilt that he should feel overwhelming joy in the wake of such a tragedy. his arms come tight around rapunzel , lifting her off his feet , and he smiles despite himself. “ we are , ” he returns. “ she is beautiful rapunzel , and simply -- indescribable. you must see her. ”

caestillo ,
gaze turns up towards him in the dark when he rouses, somewhat apologetic expression within their sage depths. she hadn’t meant to wake him. magnolia quickly nods with a sheepish smile. ❝ it’s cold. ❞ near whisper. she doesn’t necessarily mean physically. the chill she feels is in her very soul. and the only thing which seems to quiet it is the kind companionship he has offered. ❝ sorry— woke you. didn’t mean to. ❞
“ that’s alright , ” he murmurs , still rough with sleep , and shifts onto his side , tucking the blankets over her and curling an arm around her slight frame. “ fortunately for you , i’m told i run very warm. ”

“you know that i would love to host you,” padmé remarked with a fond smile. it just as well would have served for a reason for her to return to her home planet: something that always seemed to be in shortage with the state of the senate these days. “& my queen, of course, would be thrilled to have you. she’ll insist on showing you theed.”
“ and i would love to see theed. i haven’t had the opportunity since i was very young. ” as they reach the transparisteel doors that lead to the garden , bail releases her in order to hold them open.

well, that was a point that elodie had no argument for. the senate was no longer about serving people, but keeping the emperor satisfied. “it’s smart to be paranoid,” she said with a shake of her head. “but being too paranoid leads to poor decisions. the war is supposedly over, you have a child –– i can’t think of a more fitting excuse to want to celebrate with your queen.”
“ of course. of course you’re right. it can be difficult to see these things clearly , in these uncertain times. ” bail nods , frowning down at the desk. “ yes. i will speak to breha and make the necessary arrangements. ”

“ I didn’t think I was that open about it, ” he frowned playfully. Obi-Wan knew exactly how vocal he was. However, he tried not to be, for he wished not to offend anyone, “ There are only two senators I know I can trust. ”
“ And I’m grateful they give me peace of mind. They might… even change my mind about a few things involving the senate. ”
“ oh , don’t let them corrupt you that way. ” though the teasing note remains , there is an undercurrent of something more. “ perhaps you’ve been right about the senate all along. it isn’t what it once was. ”

more angst for you losers
“ how could i possibly trust you again after…everything? ” “ won’t you at least let me try to make things better? ” “ please don’t look at me like that. ” “ stop trying to fix me. ” “ i thought i could save you. but you can’t pull someone out of a storm if they won’t even take your hand. ” “ what aren’t you telling me? ” “ you’re right, you are a monster. ” “ i keep waiting for you to hurt me. ” “ how long until you realize i’m here to stay? ” “ please don’t apologize, because then i won’t be able to help but forgive you and i’m not ready to do that yet. ” “ sometimes i feel like you’re just waiting for an excuse to leave. ” “ i don’t feel safe here anymore. nowhere feels safe. ” “ i won’t let you ruin us. you’re scared of this but you don’t have to be. ” “ one of these days you’re going to push so hard i won’t be able to pull myself back to you again. ” “ your eyes always look so lost. ” “ loving you is killing me. ” “ i feel like i can’t breathe when you’re not here. ” “ i don’t hate you. but i can’t be in love with you anymore. ” “ why are you looking at me like that? ” “ what happens when i finally fuck up and you finally have to see me for what i am? ” “ i’m scared to let myself want you. ” “ why can’t i be enough? ” “ why won’t you let me help you? why won’t you let me close? ” “ just stay still. let me hold you. ” “ i won’t let you push me away this time. ” “ if you’re so intent on going down this path, then i’m coming with you. ” “ i miss the way you used to smile at me. ” “ i need you. and i hate that i do. ” “ i need to know that you’ll be okay. if something happens to me… ” “ you’re not the person i fell in love with anymore. ” “ why won’t you just let me go? i’m not worth it. ” “ please don’t go. ” “ if you can’t do it for yourself, then do it for me. do it because i need you. ” “ i can’t fix it this time. ” “ do you know how hard it was to let you go? ” “ i don’t think i’ll ever be over you. ” “ i can’t be angry. i’m too tired. i just want it to be over. ”

𝓢𝑶𝑭𝑻 𝑹𝑶𝑺𝑬 𝑷𝑬𝑻𝑨𝑳 𝑷𝑨𝑳𝑴 drifts over bail’s biceps , down to his elbows. typically she would be more discreet with her affections , but HOW NOW ? she nods at the mention of obi - wan , her heart pulling and constricting tightly in her chest. ❝ yes … but i wasn’t allowed to stay long , so i came to wait for you. ❞
“ how was he? ” his own throat tightens slightly at the thought of their friend. “ on zigoola , he ... if padme hadn’t come , he wouldn’t have held out much longer. it was all i could do to keep him going. ”
