WHO: Padme & Satine
WHERE: maurtia falls #007
WHEN: Nowish?
WHAT: Just two space lady jedi wives chilling out.
WARNINGS: It's Star Wars. I'll update if anything gets explicit.

[ She and Satine had always gotten along well enough, back in their own world - her death had been a blown Padme had felt keenly, for her own sake as well as Obi-Wan's and the many worlds Satine had helped lead in their desire for neutrality.

Still, it is strange that here in this place, as happy as she is to have the chance to know her children, as thankful as she is to have a chance to help Anakin and see them both happy, at the moment it is Satine that she feels most comfortable with from her own universe.

Perhaps it is that they have both died, though that is not something they've talked about, and she is not even certain that Satine is aware of her own death yet. Perhaps it is simply that they both come from a similar time and perspective, similar desires for the peace of the galaxy, always have.

It is good, whatever the reasons, and so she finds herself ensuring that they keep in touch. Today she has invited Satine over to her house, knowing Major is out for the day, and when she opens the door she is smiling and warm, her dress reminiscent of Mandalore. ]

It's good to see you, as always. [ And as she steps aside to let Satine in ] I'm trying to make it feel more like home, here, but it's hard to find decorations along the lines of Naboo.

[Above all else, Padme's presence here was something she was selfishly thankful for. Much as there were other familiar faces and names, Padme was a friend--a confidant she could trust.

She was desperate for the familiarity of home, of a friendly face and conversation that didn't consistently have her reflecting on her own death. She was certain that would come up--it had to--but she felt infinitely more at ease with the idea of that reflection coming up with the welcomed company than when she was alone or speaking with the various strangers here.

When she is greeted at Padme's door she can't help but smile at the choice of dress--an element of home already well in place. She wouldn't expect anything less of the other woman.]

I was very much looking forward to this visit. It's good to see you face to face. [She steps into the home, gazing about with a touch of curiosity. The furnishings were slightly different from those supplied to her own Heropa home, but it was welcoming all the same. She had a feeling that was more Padme's doing than anything.] I am having the same trouble finding things that are reminiscent of Mandalore...but I am sure it's only a matter of time until we discover something.

[ Padme knows as well that eventually death will come up - Satine's, and in consequence likely Padme's as well - but for now she is content to keep things as they have been so far, and were back home. It is even easier, now that they are not on different sides. (Not opposite, at least she could speak to Satine back home unlike Mina, but still at odds at points. ) ]

I've been looking forward to it too. [ Her smile is easy as she closes the door behind Satine, moves towards the kitchen. ] It's strange, how few of us are from our time given how many of us there are.

[ But that is not entirely important right now. She gestures at a painting. ] That one reminded me of Naboo, but they never seem quite right. Still, I think you're right - we'll simply have to learn what to look for here.

I have tea on, and refreshments if you are hungry at all.

I suppose it is strange--though for some, the time difference is not too great. [She's thinking of those that have spoken of the Empire, of a threat looming not too far off from their own timeline. Strange to think what dangers and trying times lie ahead when you know you will never see them for yourself.]

I am glad you have found something reminiscent of home already, even if they are still a touch off. I'm sure we'll continue to find such things as we look for them.

And as always, you are a rather gracious host. Tea and refreshments sound lovely. [She says it with a smile, easing into pleasant conversation. She wasn't going to bring up the unpleasantness of their destinies back home just yet.]

It is shorter than I think either of us would like to hear about.

[ Gentle enough, in its way, but there's a sadness behind it. All they fought for --

It is not what she wishes to speak of, at this moment, but it is always there in the background. ]

Have you been able to find anything that reminds you of Mandalore? I know how hard it is to be separated from your home, and you have spent more time with yours than I have.

[ She busies herself with the tea anyways, brings out two cups on a tray with a small sugar bowl between them and some cookies. ]

I do hope you've been able to find your way to settling in, here.

History can move in different paces...it seems our time was at a point when events chose to move with destructive chaos.

[Not the most positive viewpoint to be sure.]

Ah...I have not found something quite so close as you have, but I am sure I'll manage to eventually. At any rate, I at least have some familiar and friendly faces to look forward to seeing more of.

[She smiles gently as she reaches for a cup, forgoing the sugar bowl for now--but taking up a cookie after some consideration.]

I am lucky to have found so many I know--it make settling in much easier.

It does seem so. Unfortunate, for the many of us who wished only for peace.

[ But that is not, she thinks, what either of them desire to be speaking of right now. Or if it is, Satine will find her way to return to it. ]

Perhaps we can go shopping together sometime. At the very least, we'll have to find you clothes - they hardly have what you're accustomed to, here, at least easily accessible.

[ A half smile, amused. ] I will admit, I was wary upon being given new.... abilities, but to be able to change my wardrobe at will is rather welcome. It would have made life back home easier.
