…do you ever think Padme’s girlies™ ever talked shit about Anakin behind his & padme’s backs?
Like they’re all supportive and stuff when the happy couple is nearby, but the moment they leave they’re just like “oh FORCE that guy is annoying”
Like I don’t think any of them hate Anakin, but sabé WILL mock how awkward his flirting is, y’know?

Commander Fox is very good at lying. He has to be, to be able to get away with breaking the law and going against orders as often as he does. The unfortunate reality is that nearly all of his brothers are awful at lying. He does his best to teach them, they need to be able to do it well to get away with stealing money from senators to fund Fox’s war on organized crime after all.
Fox enlists the help of Padme’s handmaidens after repeated failures. The women are baffled by how bad Fox’s brothers are when he is so good at it. It becomes so frustrating for them they promise to help Fox with whatever scam or con he wants to pull for the rest of eternity as long as he doesn’t put them through that again.
The one exception is Havoc, who is actually very good at lying. The problem with Havic, however, is that they simply choose not to. Havoc knows how to lie bc they were trained as a medic and needed a good bedside manner, but is not allowed to help in the med bay because they like the sharp tools a little too much. Fox tried to cheer Havoc up by giving them a knife and it worked a little too well.

Happy Lesbian Visibility Week! (part three) ✰ if you're looking for canon lesbian relationships that appear for more than 2 seconds in the background, check out The High Republic & Doctor Aphra comics ✰ reminder that T*RFs can fuck off, only interact if you love trans & nonbinary folks ♡ more characters under the cut!
Tumblr only allows 30 images per post, so this was the max number of characters I could include BUT if there is anyone you would like to see made into one of these edits that isn't here, just let me know and I'll make it separately ♡

So you know how the handmaidens don’t have last names technically cause of the whole anonymity/security thing? Would they use the queen’s name as a “last name” if they needed one for something (like travel documents or whatever)? I still need to read the Padmé books but it’s also not mentioned on wookieepedia so maybe that’s just not a thing but it definitely adds an interesting layer to the whole depersonalization/separation of self thing that they have going on. Just some thoughts I’ve been having.
Tumblr media
these ARE interesting thoughts. i’ll admit im not super up to date on padme’s beyond-movie lore either: i’ve looked around at the books and comics and i think there’s some cool stuff in there, but also part of the appeal of padme for me is that when people try and reinterpret her, they typically end up transforming her. they make her infallible; they make her the Worst. she’s a character who it’s very easy to get wrong, as evidenced by 90% of fandom making her the Girlboss and moving on. so when it comes to filling in the gaps for padme’s lore i usually return to the movies, no matter how disinterested in padme’s heart they are, bc watching comic writer #56 waffle between her and anakin’s relationship as Toxic or Domestic is pretty tiring. (i know they’re doing their best too ! it’s just not fun)
if i’m just sticking to the movies when thinking about this, i’ll say it’s pretty obvious the handmaidens enter into this arrangement expecting to live their whole lives around padme. they are the shadows in every room she’s in, they die for her, they speak for her, they surround her. any and all handmaiden characterization we get in the movies is through their interactions with padme. even when they’re dying, they only speak of her and their duty. you talk about “travel documents” but it’s hard for me to imagine a reason a handmaiden might need to travel independently from padme, or why they’d need legal identification other than “handmaiden of naboo”. even with the handmaidens supposedly going on to have lives after padme, that’s not how they’re represented in the films. even if they do have political careers, i’d imagine they’d get into the naboo system by being known as a handmaiden, not a new identity.
i think the devotion of naboo’s handmaidens, who chose to forsake their lives and names at 14 until they die, is a solid parallel to the jedi, especially in a trilogy so obsessed with duality. that’s really where i’d start with questions of names and depersonalization. think of the jedi’s monk levels of isolation for the sake of the Cause, but the Cause in this case is a fourteen year old girl, and you are also fourteen. and even when you are an adult with grey hair and supposedly moved on, you will still bear the mark of being fourteen and having served and loved this girl.

So as an author I’ve always enjoyed when a reader mentions a song or art piece that reminds them of my writing. I wanted to say this painting gives me makes me think of your Leia, Padme, and the handmaidens.
Tumblr media
Being the nerd I am, I had to look up what this painting was, and found myself giggling, since this is apparently La Fiancée hésitante ("The Reluctant Bride" or "The Hesitant Fiancée"), by Auguste Toulmouche.
I do love the aggression of the central figure, and the affection of her companions. The opulence is also good. I like the vibes, and yeah, I can see how it's reminiscent of the DLB dynamic. Very cool.

Do you ever think about how Padme's decoy handmaiden routine wouldn't work on the clones?
Because yeah they're look-alikes, but not clone look-alikes. The boys can tell one another apart; they can definitely tell actually different people apart.

Sabé
Dear god, Sabé's love and devotion to Padmé is heartbreaking. My fragile sapphic heart breaks upon thinking about their relationship.
“ Having fallen in love with Amidala, Sabé's love and loyalty towards her friend led her to place Amidala's needs above those of any other beings, including her own, although she knew Amidala could not reciprocate. Although she once advised Amidala to return romantic love to someone who understood her, she was certain Amidala would never return her feelings and assumed her friend would choose something larger than a person to love, such as a planet or species, which left her shocked to discover she had married Anakin Skywalker. She preferred being Amidala's second to being first to anyone else, although this made it difficult to maintain relationships with lovers who could not understand that they would never be more important to her than Amidala. “
