Prompt: “So, I was thinking that maybe on the trip to Bespin, Leia has a bit of a breakdown about Alderaan. This could be the first big one or just a smaller breakdown from a memory or something she feels like she’s losing/forgetting. And who is the only one there to help? Han.”
Two weeks into their journey to Bespin, Leia and Han are finally in a good place — but Leia finds that grief, and guilt, have a way of sneaking up unawares. Thankfully, Han’s learned enough about Leia to know that sometimes, the best way to help is just to be there.
