it only takes seconds for the senator to imagine her padawan protector as the little boy he once was — perhaps, it is the easiest way of remembering him now. he seems too aged, even at just twenty. his eyes overpower everything else, &. now when she looks into them, all she can feel is his warmth. though warmth is a strange thing; it heals, but too much of it can hurt.

padme's arms rest firmly on the pillar, &. when she finally looks at the man beside her, she easily feels the weight of his burden through the littlest of things; the pace he follows her at— the kindness within his gaze— the touch of his hand on her cheek. [he is softer than he is willing to admit.]

❛❛ I MUST ADMIT — I FEEL SAFER WITH YOU CLOSE. you make things better, when i get so lonely here. when i miss my mother, when i miss the smell of my home, you are what soothes me. ❜❜
