"Now just take a moment. What single thing would drag me to this forsaken basement?"
STAR WARS: EPISODE II - ATTACK OF THE CLONES 2002, dir. George Lucas
We gather stones, never knowing what they'll mean Some to throw, some to make a diamond ring You know I didn't want to have to haunt you But what a ghostly scene You wear the same jewels that I gave you As you bury me
Andor makes me want to write a Star Wars fanfiction but it's so scary. What if I write "Glup Shitto was sitting on the balcony, drinking coffee and reading his favourite book", but someone comments "didn't you mean he was drinking glop-goppy and reading a holo-journal? 🤨" so I open wookiepedia to check it out and it turns out that they also never invented balconies in the star wars universe and Glup Shitto can't read because of the freak accident he suffered in the episode 10 of the 2024 show "Jar-Jar and Babu Frik". What then.
Sometimes I just think about how Breha always wears her hair up on a braid. How it was said that it was a tradition for Alderaanians, especially for the monarch, to wear braids.
How the first time we see Leia, she is not wearing her hair braided, but after Alderaan is destroyed, she starts braiding them. For the rest of the trilogy, she has braids in pretty much every scene she is in.
How most of the time, she wears her hair exactly like her mother used to.
I just think about that, sometimes. If she ever looked at herself in the mirror when she did her hair, and tried her hardest to make it look like Breha used to. If she ever looked at herself, her hair braided into a crown, just to see a glimpse of her mother looking back at her.
I think about that, sometimes.
