#naberrie family

[lenoreamidala]

The Naberrie family was a human family native to the planet Naboo in the Mid Rim region of the galaxy. Though of humble beginnings, a member of the family, Padmé Naberrie, became a prominent political figure during the Fall of the Republic, beginning with her election as the Monarch of Naboo. The daughter of Ruwee Naberrie and his wife, Jobal Naberrie, Padmé was publicly known as Amidala, Queen of the Naboo following her ascension to the throne in 32 BBY. She had a sister, Sola Naberrie, who gave birth to Ryoo and Pooja Naberrie.

Delving through legends on wookiepedia and found an interesting article about Padme's maternal grandmother Ryoo Thule who she was quite close with and her niece was named after.

In legends she was the one who prepared her body for the funeral and due to this the inquisitors came to ask questions about the children and killed her when she refused to co-operate, it also hints at her being force sensitive, having a precognition on the day of her death something was wrong and knew the inquisitor would kill her.

This echoes the scene of Padme in revenge of the sith looking out at the city towards the Jedi temple knowing something was wrong. I will always despise the complete erasure of the Naberrie family with them only being seen at her funeral and in deleted scenes.

I find it interesting her grandmother was killed by inquisitors for protecting Luke and Leia's birth and there isn't a single mention in canon media, and has almost been lost in legends as well.

Obi wan: why is it that every time something happens its always you two

Leia: it's the skywalker-naberrie genes

Luke: yeah we can't help that both our parents like to break rules

Leia: and they taught us to do it

Anakin and Padme, avoiding eye contact:

Sometimes it's nice to make a happy-ending AU, as a treat.

No Order 66 AU where Anakin leaves the Order after the war ends and he and Padme end up retiring to Naboo to try to raise the twins together, but neither of them ends up feeling particularly satisfied with life on Naboo (for Anakin it just doesn't give him any purpose the way he desperately needs and for Padme it's always been this perfect rosy dream and reality doesn't measure up), so they end up leaving the twins behind a lot so they can pursue other things and are pretty absentee parents in general. They mostly end up getting raised by Padme's parents instead, and while they're perfectly good guardians for the twins and raise them kindly and love them a lot, there's always an obvious elephant in the room regarding who ISN'T there.

This causes a bit of a rift between Luke and Leia because while Luke is trying to keep the peace and give their parents the benefit of the doubt as he moves on and figures out his own life with what he DOES have, Leia is less willing to just forgive and forget.

Luke ends up becoming a pilot working for the royal palace for a while, but Leia goes into politics (something she'd entered while younger because it's what her mother did and she'd been hoping it would get Padme's attention and bring the two of them closer; it didn't work out that way at all and now Leia's sticking with it at least partly to spite Padme) as an aide for her cousin Pooja who is now Senator of Naboo.

And it's here, once she finally makes it to Coruscant and starts working in the Senate, that Leia meets Bail Organa, still working as Senator of Alderaan. The two of them click IMMEDIATELY and Bail ends up becoming Leia's mentor in politics, as well as the person who actually introduces her to the Jedi themselves. Anakin and Padme had never really bothered to do so, both because they were so rarely around, but also because they had chosen not to give Luke and Leia to the Temple and decided at that point that it would be easier to keep the twins and the Jedi separate. Bail of course has no such compunctions and even if he knew about Anakin and Padme's feelings on the matter, I imagine he'd find ways to allow Leia to accidentally bump into some of the Jedi while she was on Coruscant. If he just so happens to double book himself for lunch with both Leia and Obi-Wan, it's hardly anything malicious and they may as well all eat together!

Leia finally feels like she has a parent who gives a damn about her, someone who acts like a parent to her, the parent she's always wanted. Her grandparents had always been incredibly kind and they obviously had to do a lot of parenting, but they'd always been very strict about making sure the twins saw them as GRANDPARENTS and not their actual parents, which just make the absence of their parents that much more obvious and painful. But with Bail, she's finally got someone who doesn't care that Anakin and Padme aren't there and doesn't feel the need to create a wall between them for Anakin and Padme's sake. Bail takes her under his wing, teaches her everything she knows, allows her to explore things she'd never been allowed to explore before, connects her to even more people who can help her understand herself better than she's ever been able to before. THIS is what a parent was supposed to do for her and she knows it, THIS is what selfless love looks like from a parent and she THRIVES under it for the first time in her life.

She eventually decides not to stay on as Pooja's aide because she has no real desire to become a senator for Naboo at any point, but she IS good at politics and desperately does want to help people any way she can, so she starts up some sort of organization of her own to help people around the galaxy (and connects it to the Jedi because deep down she KNOWS she was supposed to be one of them even though that path is now closed to her). But she doesn't go back to Naboo, she doesn't make her home on her mother's home planet.

She goes to Alderaan instead. And this time, she gets to stay there for the rest of her life.

The Skywalkers…. 🪽

I’m crying.

They could’ve been such a beautiful family…

Not a day goes by where I don’t think about them.

All of them lived a life filled with pain and tragedy.

I will always miss them…

[dailydragon08]

Why do I feel like Anakin and Padmé both had some INCREDIBLE puppy eyes

Rex: no, sir, we can’t do this maneuver, it’s too—

Anakin: 🥺

Rex:…r-risky…and um, Master Kenobi said…

Anakin: 🥺

Rex:…n-not t-to—

Anakin: 🥺

Rex: *sigh* all right FINE

~

Some other senator: I’m truly sorry, Senator Amidala, but this policy is just too—

Padmé: 🥺

Senator: it’s too…I don’t think I can s-support…um…

Padmé: 🥺

Senator: DAMMIT FINE

And they both passed it onto the twins, so:

Han: no

Luke & Leia: 🥺🥺

Han: n-no…stop that

Luke & Leia: 🥺🥺

Han: Chewie, back me up h—

Chewie: *sad Wookiee noises* ☹️

Han: FUCK’S SAKE

Obi-Wan wears Gucci, Luke wears Chanel, Leia wears some brand more expensive than any of them have ever seen before having been made for her directly by the designer and no brand logos cause that shit is for plebs (and sugar babies according to Obi-Wan), Padme wears every colour of the rainbow at once and massive wigs and looks like a peacock at all times (don’t ask for her designer her designer is drunk and does 7 lines of spice per dress) and Anakin wears Sprocs (Space Crocs) and whatever smells the lease like motor oil on his bedroom floor.

Anakin: no clue

My favourite part of fix-it AUs is the SkyTwins trying to have a normal life, while their parents are Anakin "hero with no fear" Skywalker and Padmé "Queen Amidala" Naberrie

They're changing their shoes when their preschool teacher is trying to flirt with uncle Ben

Luke going to his friend's house only to find Padmé's poster in his drawer

Leia finding "Anakin was here" scratched under a desk in the senate (done when he was bored during some kind of bodyguarding assignment)

It’s so heartbreaking that Hayden Christensen would never get a chance to meet Carrie Fisher.

I have seen posts from pro Jedi people saying that Anakin helped hunt down and kill the Jedi Order who were his family, but I have a question about that. Aside from Obi-Wan who was like an older brother to him, Ahsoka who was like a younger sister to him, and in the short amount of time he knew him, Qui-Gon who was like a father to him, was the Jedi Order really like a family to Anakin? He got along with some of the Jedi, but that was more like getting along with coworkers, not like how someone would be around family. In fact Padawans he trained with bullied Anakin and I wouldn’t want to see people who bullied me like my family, I don’t think Anakin would either. I even saw a post that seemed to imply that Anakin turned against his family only to save his wife, even though being a wife would make Padmé be part of Anakin’s family. She is his wife and the mother of his children, that is a lot stronger than a religious order that he was made to grow up with because he didn’t really have anywhere else to go.
