Headcanons for being Leia Organa’s nanny

Leia Organa x reader

warnings:

a/n: i forgot abt lola!!! and this request!!!

prompt: anonymous: “Could I request headcanons from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series about being child!Princess Leia‘s babysitter, please? Thank you!”

your family had been trusted members of the Alderaanian Royal Guard for generations

you’d worked around the castle for some time before there was a delightful new addition to the royal family

and they asked you to care for her personally

“y/n, i think we have the perfect job for you” -bail

you met leia soon after she was born and thought she was the most beautiful girl to exist

“oh, i think i’m going to enjoy this job” -you

(it ended up being the most daunting thing you’d ever have to face)

she was not at all fussy as a baby, but as she grew up she got VERY sassy

and adventurous

“leia! no, please get down from there! your parents cannot know you climbed that high!” -you

“i can go higher!” -leia, climbing a tree

you just about had a heart attack

it only encouraged her

leia may be an adrenaline junkie, but she’s not opposed to a nice night in

you’ve gotten her to settle in with a good book and some homemade treats

breha and bail encourage you to teach her life skills, so she’s made a few meals and such on her own (you tried to help, she insists she can do it herself)

“do you like it?” -leia

“it’s…great…” -you, chewing charred cookies

she’s getting the hang of it

taking trips with the organa family

to which you get a small “break” from leia

not really, she loves to include you in family stuff

they all do, really

and you love the new sights across the galaxy, you never would have imagined these alone

“i think y/n would adore the skyline, don’t you?” -breha

“only one way to find out” -bail

they embraced you as family

you do leia’s hair a ton

“what would you like today?” -you

“braids” -leia

“what kind?” -you

“two pinned around my head” -leia

“i’ll do my best, dear” -you

you secretly taught leia her little attitude

always stand her ground and show kindness where it’s deserved

you have to gently wake her up, she’s been known to have some “active” dreams

you’ve been kicked and/or punched many mornings

“well, it was your own fault…sorry” -leia

she asks if you know anything of her birth parents

“unfortunately, i do not. i know you’d like answers, and maybe someday you’ll get them, but i would pry too hard if i were you” -you

“well, you aren’t me” -leia

“that’s true, miss attitude” -you

supervising when her cousins are around, since there seem to be plenty of disagreements between them

you can’t help but smirk at leia’s clapbacks

“now, come on, you guys. don’t be rude” -you

“who are you to tell me what to do, servant?” -cousin

“hey! don’t talk to them like that or i’ll make sure you go to bed bald!” -leia

“settle down—” -you

“not until he apologizes!” -leia

you have to remove leia from many of these situations

but she prefers alone time (and alone time with you) rather than those pesky social events

“i’d be so bored without you i think” -leia

“you do?” -you

“very much so” -leia

Discussion of the Star Wars property has, once again, been pretty rancid lately. Shocking news I know.

Unsurprisingly it's largely because of a bunch of people who will tell you're they're definitely not racist but clearly are losing their minds over a black woman having a light saber.

So lets cast our minds back to simpler times, when people understood that what we really wanted to see was a very sexy Leia and Han costume swap. Bless America Young and Dove Meir for providing this to us.

Just look at all that empowerment.

Sometimes I think about looking for SW content and then the first thing I see is "Padmé isn't really Leia's mother because of Breha" which is just ?????? in terms of the Lucas films.

Like, Padmé did nothing that would lead Leia to reject her. Dying is not a renunciation of her motherhood. When Leia is asked by Luke (who invariably identifies their birth parents as his parents) about her "real mother," Leia doesn't correct him but simply responds with a description of Padmé that, contextually, could only come from impressions via the Force that she mistakes as vague memories. Luke does not share these impressions; there is a special tie between Leia and Padmé. There's nothing wrong or improbable about Leia having feelings about that.

Breha is also Leia's mother, but this does not require Leia to reject Padmé nor make it probable for her to do so. And the conversation about Padmé in ROTJ just does not suggest a rejection from Leia at all.

I suspect that Padmé is basically being packaged in with Anakin, whom Leia has very good reasons to reject. But Padmé is not Anakin. Leia does not have to relate to them in the same ways and it doesn't seem at all likely from ROTJ that she does.

your hope will light up the path to the future

text under the cut:

“Sometimes it feels meaningless, yes. So many rebellion officers, pilots and civilians die everyday. We are being heavily censored. More and more citizens fall to the imperial propaganda.

And it’s easy to fall to the despair and lose your motivation to go on.

But people like you, your highness, are like a bright star I the dark pit that is the empire.

As long as you shine, people will follow.

And I will follow as well.”

@peachyhoolagan this one goes out for u and your funky color pallet ty

a mundane and probably well-established observation to make atp, but i really do like that they didn't cast some chiselled young superhero type actor as din, because that would've been very easy, conventional and satisfying for mainstream audiences. there was no awestruck face reveal where he takes the helmet off and he's a captain america esque action figure with an artistically badass scar or something. he's literally just a dude. like, i can't express the extent to which din djarin is just a guy. he's got scruff and helmet hair and absolutely terrified, uncomfortable eyes as he violates every boundary he has in this act of desperation to save his child. it's not a hotshot-revealed movie moment and that gives it so much more weight. that moment was not a victory, it was a sacrifice.

also we just straight up need more aging protagonists in our action and fantasy media and anytime we get fed well i'm glad. no more mcu under-forty club more scifi senior citizen center.

Is Etho season ten Hermitcraft’s little whump prince???

I’m just noticing more and more of this trend, and I must ask: Is he their Obi-Wan Kenobi?

Kids in Star Wars are so adorable that it's cruel.

Cruel because they'll most likely end up traumatised by the time they're a teenager.

Ezra Bridger, Cal Kestis, Grogu, Boba Fett, Petro, and Caleb Dume.

Katooni, Omega, Ahsoka Tano, Galen Marek, Leia Organa, and Asajj Ventress.

Vaylin, Thexan and Arcann.

Ganodi, Zatt and Gungi.

Mark has a robe on and is playing her a song with his “harmonica” 😉 😆! This is behind the scenes of “Return of the Jedi”. His little hat and his robe! He is just so cute! 🥰🥹

Kylo Ren/Ben Solo and Poe Dameron raised as brothers

all that's left of her now is this clay imprint of her little paw.

i never touch it or move it bc breaking it would be the end of me. but tonight i took it out of its bag and touched the shadow of her paw.

i cant believe how much i felt in this clay. she had one pink toebean, out of all the other black ones. i used to squeeze them when id trim her nails or feel extra needy for a hit of joy. her little pawpad was perfect, like a cartoon cat might have, soft and cute. she'd push it against me when i picked her up, so annoyed with me. but not scratching either. id kiss her little forehead anyway, soft as silk.

i wonder if i leaned on her too much back then. all the work on myself i wasnt doing. all the fear i bottled up and left to her. i never set her free from that room. i dont worry that she blamed me but surely it was too much. i did this to myself maybe. i cant know, now.

im trying to take good care of everyone now, leia. im trying to let go of suspicion and paranoia and live generously, with hope. im keeping your sister healthy, and helping your brother relax. we all had tuna water today. im a mixed bag and i cant say im not still stuck but im doing my best without you. i still miss you. i still really miss you. im sorry.

but tomorrow is a big special birthday and then it's almost halloween so i wont sit around moping. im getting better at smiling. ill keep working harder, for u. promise.

Fishook!Obi-Wan looking at Leia with proud tears in his eyes after she successfully manipulates Luke and Ahsoka for the first time. His clever, clever child. Maybe she'd like a planet for her birthday? Just a small one, a tiny moon the perfect size for the perfect 2 year old. (Anakin makes him get 3 moons; a romance novel featuring a widowed parent taught him it's important not to play favorites)

obi-wan: a moon is a perfect starter planet for a young megalomaniac, therefore for leia's birthday i am going to give her a moon :)

anakin: i agree - but also luke has a birthday soon. imagine that.

obi-wan: i'm offended you think i don't know when my son is born. he will be getting a paint set and a star wars easy bake oven.

anakin: and leia gets a moon???

obi-wan: do you think it's unfair that luke is getting two things and leia only gets one? maybe we could get her something else too....

anakin: nO
