She sits, shrugging her top off to - a bit awkwardly - feed her daughter. (Luckily the baby seems to know what to do once she's close enough.)

And she stares down at her, expression soft and almost stunned. "She's so small," she murmurs.

"She needs a name."

"Anakin," she says, without even needing to think about it. (She feels like she's always known her daughter's name.) "Her name's Anakin."

Permalink

"That's a good name."

"Hello, Anakin."

Enthusiastic suckling noises!

Cute baby.

She is.

Best tiny baby ever.

Certainly the greatest around.

She's pretty sure 'in the universe' applies here.

Permalink

"If that's what it takes - though I'd also prefer to not get investigated by the Jedi for your disappearance."

Permalink

Permalink

"Not easily - at least not without your cooperation."

Permalink

Nod.

Permalink

"Would you cooperate?"

Permalink

"That depends on the details of your plan."

Permalink

"For your role in this, or for defeating Plagueis as a whole?"

Permalink

"My role."

Permalink
