in light of Leia's Force-insight abilities, I propose that the reason Han was so offended by Leia calling him a 'scruffy-looking nerf-herder' was because this was her pulling directly on his own self-image issues and doubts
luke aged 20, talking to han and leia: yeah haha and then this woman with a red lightsaber chased me into the desert and I hit my head and she almost killed me for no reason I guess? haha my uncle was sort of vague on that
leia, aged 20, recalling buried trauma: omg something so similar happened to me ages ago, I was put on a torture machine in a giant compound and this lady with a red lightsaber almost killed me, haha that's crazy
every other jedi/rebel when breaking into an imperial base consistently puts on the storm trooper uniform they first have access too except for obi-wan kenobi who consistently chooses to walk around on his tiptoes and hope not to get caught
So Mark Hamill is 5’7” and Graham Hamilton is around 6’. Idk why, but I’m just picturing Han and Leia going to visit Luke’s Jedi academy and he’s shot up to almost Han’s height with a sudden growth spurt and Han just thinking “wtf is in the water here” and Luke trolling him by saying “see? Told you blue milk works wonders.”
