“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?”

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.”

@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.
