@soulscatter​ ( bail organa ) sent: you didn’t even hear me out ( meme )

He’s right; she hasn’t really heard him out, but she doesn’t want to. Not right now, when she has so much to get caught up on, and he’ll have to go back to Coruscant any day now, anyway. She’s angry -- not at him, it isn’t his fault, but she’s still angry -- and she’s grieving, and she’s trying desperately to maintain the integrity of her ability to rule as Queen despite the inner turmoil she’s going through. 

It isn’t as though she doubts the love or loyalty of her people, but rather that she feels the inexplicable need to prove to herself that she’s still capable of at least this one thing. Ruling. Being Queen. Her people deserve it. 

So she doesn’t have time to weep anymore, she doesn’t have time to listen to Bail console her, she doesn’t want to hear whatever sweet words of sympathy he undoubtedly has to bestow upon her. Not now, when she feels so fragile that one more tear might shatter her into a thousand tiny shards of glass. 

“I can’t right now, Bail. I have a meeting with the Board of Educators that I’m nearly late for, and I must see to the petitioner farmers after, I already had to reschedule twice. We’ll talk tonight after dinner,” Breha adds, even though she’s half certain that she’ll find some new excuse after dinner. 

She just doesn’t want to talk right now.

@soulscatter ( bail organa ) sent: and i can see us twisted in bedsheets ( meme )

“Mmm, is that so?” Breha smiles coyly through her sultry purr, the holo propped up on Bail’s empty pillow where she can see him without needing to keep holding the holo. She misses him through these long separations, though she would not dream of telling him to resign his position as Senator and come home to Alderaan to be only her husband. He loves his political career, and he is good for Alderaan as their Senator. Even if it means that their Queen must miss her husband for weeks or months at a time when he is on Coruscant being their voice in the Senate. 

Their frequent holo calls help ease the loneliness of separation, though are still a poor substitute for the warm embrace of his arms around her while she sleeps. “And what else do you see, my love?”

@starsscarred ( brecar lanfel ) sent: "when you are young they assume you know nothing" ( meme )

She smiles faintly, knowing what he means, and remembering well the times in her life when those around her had assumed that she was too young and inexperienced to be as clever as she was. For a while, it had frustrated her, until Deara had quite wisely suggested that she just use it to her advantage. Use it to watch and learn. Then she had, and it had actually been more effective than she’d initially thought it would be, when she had wanted to immediately and always be taken as seriously as she had thought that being Crown Princess entitled her to be. 

“Let them underestimate you and then prove them wrong,” Breha suggests, handing the young pilot a pack of rations. “Then you’ll always have the element of surprise.”

THE 1

i’m doing good, i’m on some new shit

and if you wanted me, you really should’ve showed

but we were something, don’t you think so?

and if my wishes came true, it would’ve been you

in my defence, i have none

but it would’ve been fun if you would’ve been the one

if one thing had been different, would everything be different today

CARDIGAN

when you are young they assume you know nothing

i knew you

baby kiss it better

you put me on and said i was your favourite

a friend to all is a friend to none

chase two girls, lose the one

you drew stars around my scars

but now i’m bleeding

tried to change the ending

i knew you’d haunt all of my what-ifs

cause i knew everything when i was young

and i knew you’d come back to me

THE LAST GREAT AMERICAN DYNASTY

how did a middle class divorcée do it?

there’s only so far new money goes

their parties were tasteful, if a little loud

there goes the last great american dynasty

who knows, if she never showed up what could’ve been

she had a marvellous time ruining everything

there goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen

she stole his dog and dyed it key lime green

i had a marvellous time ruining everything

EXILE

i can see you standin’ honey

and it took you five whole minutes to pack us up and leave me with it

i think i’ve seen this film before

you’re not my homeland anymore

now i’m in exile seein’ you out

i can see you starin’ honey

like you’d get your knuckles bloody for me

those eyes add insult to injury

i’m not your problem anymore

so who am i offending now?

we always walked a very thin line

you didn’t even hear me out

i never learned to read your mind

MY TEARS RICOCHET

even on my worst day, did i deserve babe, all the hell you gave me?

i swear i loved you

i didn’t have it in myself to go with grace

and if i’m dead to you, why are you at the wake?

you know i didn’t want to have to haunt you

cause when i’d fight, you used to tell me i was brave

and i can go anywhere i want, just not home

you had to kill me, but it killed you just the same

you turned into your worst fears

MIRRORBALL

and when i break, it’s in a million pieces

hush

you’ll find me on my tallest tiptoes spinning in my highest heels

i know they said the end is near

i can change everything about me to fit in

i’m still trying everything to get you laughing at me

i’m still a believer but i don’t know why

SEVEN

please picture me in the trees

i was too scared to jump in

are there still beautiful things?

cross your heart, won’t tell no other

and thought i can’t recall your face, i still got love for you

love you to the moon and to saturn

and i’ve been meaning to tell you

i think your house is haunted

i used to scream ferociously

AUGUST

i never needed anything more

are you sure?

never have i ever before

cause it was never mine

and i can see us twisted in bedsheets

cause you were never mine

i remember thinking i had you

wanting was enough

for me, it was enough

so much for summer love, and saying “us”

cause you weren’t mine to lose

THIS IS ME TRYING

i’ve been having a hard time adjusting

i didn’t know if you’d care if i came back

i have a lot of regrets about that

and maybe i don’t quite know what to say

i just wanted you to know that this is me trying

they told me all of my cages were mental

so i got wasted like all my potential

i was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere

but i didn’t pour the whiskey

at least i’m trying

it’s hard to be anywhere these days

ILLICIT AFFAIRS

make sure nobody sees you leave

tell your friends you’re out for a run

take the road less travelled by

and that’s the thing about illicit affairs

like you don’t even exist

but they lie, and they lie, and they lie, a million little times

don’t call me kid

don’t call me baby

look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

for you, i would ruin myself

INVISIBLE STRING

i used to think i would meet somebody there

were there clues i didn’t see?

all along, there was some invisible string tying you to me

you ate at my favourite spot for dinner

something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire

one single thread of gold tied me to you

hell was the journey but it brought me heaven

MAD WOMAN

what did you think i’d say to that?

what do you sing on your drive home?

every time you call me crazy, i get more crazy

and when you say i seem angry, i get more angry

what a shame, she went mad

no one likes a mad woman

you made her like that

it’s obvious that wanting me dead has really brought you two together

cause you took everything from me

the master of spin has a couple side flings

good wives always know

EPIPHANY

just a flesh wound

___, i think he’s bleedin’ out

something med school did not cover

doc, i think she’s crashin’ out

and some things you just can’t speak about

to make some sense of what you’ve seen

BETTY

but i think it’s cause of me

it’s like i couldn’t breathe

you can’t believe a word she says

the worst thing that i ever did was what i did to you

would you have me?

would you want me?

would you tell me to go straight to hell?

i’m only seventeen, i don’t know anything

but i know i miss you

just thinking of you

i dreamt of you all summer long

the only thing i wanna do is make it up to you

PEACE

i never had the courage of my convictions

as long as danger is near

but i would die for you in secret

the devil’s in the details

but you got a friend in me

your integrity makes me seem small

and you know that i’d swing with you for the fences

and you know that i’d sit with you in the trenches

and you know that i’d give you my wild

and you know that i’d give you my child

is it enough?

all these people think love’s for show

would it be enough if i could never give you peace?

HOAX

this has broken me down

stood on the cliffside screaming “give me a reason”

your faithless love’s the only hoax i believe in

don’t want no other shade of blue but you

i am ash from your fire

you know i left a part of me back in new york

you knew the hero died, so what’s the movie for

you knew it still hurts underneath my scares

you knew you won, so what’s the point of keeping score?

darling, this was just as hard

you have beaten my heart

no other sadness in the world would do

PSC - Star Wars: Bail & Breha Organa

IMAGINE BREHA. 

Granted, Alderaanian palace guards wouldn’t have blasters because there are no weapons on Alderaan, but think about it anyway. That would certainly be her response.

Ferus stifled his irritation with the old man. Obi-Wan would never have admitted it, but for him, Leia always came second. An afterthought.

Wow I never thought I’d actually see an official Star Wars publication address that fact. (Even if it is Legends now).

he  doesn’t  mean  to  linger  in  the  doorway,  but  the  sight  of  his  wife  & queen  makes  him  hesitate  as  it  always  does.  the  way  she  looks  like  this,  hair  falling  in  waves  down  her  back,  silk robe  tied  quickly  around  her  waist  but  falling  from one  shoulder,  reminds  him  that  he  is  the  luckiest  man  on  any  planet.  “  i  had  hoped  to  be  home  earlier,  “  his  words  leak  of  apologies  that  have  come  from  his  lips  too  many  times.  the  war  had  separated  them  so  much.  he  longed  for  the  beginnings  of  their  official  courtship,  when  time  was  planned  for  them  to  be  together.  even  with  an  escort,  seconds  with  breha  would  have  been  cherished  even  more  so  now.  “  will  you  ever  forgive  me  ??  “  his  voice  is  low  as  he  steps  into  the  room.  he’s  tired,  ready  to  sleep  for  as  long  as  allowed,  but  if  the  opportunity  to  speak  to  her  for  even  a  moment  is  there,  he  would  be  a  fool  not  to  jump.

The sound of his voice is enough to pull a smile along her lips, and Breha turns from her mirror, hairbrush still in one hand as she looks over at her husband. “Mmm, I think perhaps I can find a way to forgive you...perhaps,” she answers, tapping one slender finger onto her cheek in expectation of a kiss. Her words are little more than a tease, of course, for she has already forgiven him the lateness of his arrival. As much as she longs for him to be by her side more often than this war tearing the galaxy apart allows, she understands as well as he does that the sacrifices they make are for the good and security of their people, as well as the galaxy at large. As much as she hates the long and frequent separations, she is constantly proud of him for everything that he does.

We’ve always talked of adopting a baby girl. She will be loved with us.

Ten Word Stories #577

[ofalderaan]

miscellaneous headcanons regarding adoption and child care on Alderaan. 

adoption is not taboo on Alderaan, and though there are legal requirements for adoption put in place to protect the child, there is no requirement ( or social norm ) for things like marriage prior to adopting. ( a single, unmarried citizen, a same-sex married couple, a heterosexual married couple, an inter-species married couple, and an unmarried couple all would have the same chance at being approved for adopting. ) 

there is also no requirement that a parent be of the same species as the child they wish to adopt. there used to be, under the old assumption that it was better for the child to have a parent or parents their same species, but Breha abolished that law during the Clone Wars when her citizens were unable to legally adopt refugee children of another species. 

for parents who adopt a child of a different species, there is a requirement to meet with a counselor of the child’s species regularly to ensure that the child is being properly cared for as any child of their species would need to be.

children out of wedlock are not looked down on, and there is no word in Alderaanian culture for a ‘bastard’ child; Alderaan does not recognize the definition of a child being a ‘bastard’ child even when the word is used in Basic. 

children out of wedlock and adopted children have the same inherited rights as a child born to two married citizens. 

Alderaan has a foster care system, and it is considered an honor in Alderaanian culture to be a foster parent. there are strict requirements for being a foster parent, and for the level of care provided to the child.

cute things to think about: toddlers Leia and Winter making flower crowns in the garden for Breha, and Breha wears hers the entire rest of the day including while doing official Queenly business.
