“I love you, Benny.” she whispers into his hair, hoping it would be enough.
I decided (very spontaneously) to try writing something based on yet another incredible fandom - I mean, how great are the star wars movies?
I’m rewatching the Sequel Trilogy atm and man…I’ve always liked Leia a lot and she so deserved a better ending ;(
So here’s me giving her a sweet, if a little sad moment with her son - before it all went way downhill.
(also, look at this sweet piece of art right here! source: Pinterest)

Princess and the Scoundrel Thoughts
Spoilers ahead:
First of all, the title and cover of this book are ridiculous. The art is pretty, but the pose looks like a cheesy romance. I think they’re paying homage to Courtship of Princess Leia, which while that story is hilarious, is one of the worst Star Wars books ever. But we get the Dathomir witches so it’s fine I guess.
On the other hand, Princess and the Scoundrel, is one of the best Star Wars books. Despite everything, despite all of the obstacles this book had from the beginning, it succeeds as having some of the best and most subtle character work in the entire franchise. Which is hilarious, because this book literally only exists to market a hotel. But Beth Revis said, “yeah, but what if it was good and I actually tried?”
Now, Beth Revis has clearly read COPL. You can tell and it’s kind of hilarious. For example, in COPL, there is a really long scene where Han plays sabacc (space poker) during a bout of insecurity and wins a planet to give to Leia and he uses THE MILLENNIUM FALCON for collateral. Han Solo would never do this. Now in PatS, Han plays sabacc while Leia is working to help her out by gathering intelligence. One of the players mentions that he wants to kidnap Leia (not knowing who Han is), and Han almost murders the guy. It’s awesome.
Here’s the thing, you can tell when Leia is being written by a woman instead of a man. In COPL, there is one moment where it’s brought up that if Leia marries Isolder there will be a planet for the survivors of the Alderaani genocide, but it’s only mentioned a few times and not by Leia. So any opportunity for a duty vs love internal conflict is not used. Her conflict is “Han and I are distant and space Fabio is hot so…”. Then HAN KIDNAPS LEIA USING A MIND CONTROL GUN. And she doesn’t murder him. So…I don’t care about this relationship anymore because both of them suck and it isn’t even clear why Leia falls in love with Han all over again.
Beth Revis gives Leia a very multi faceted internal conflict. Part of it is her dealing with her feelings about Vader, about being part of a team, and her guilt over Alderaan. It doesn’t take up too much time, but they inform a lot of her character.
Now, in a different canon book, that came out previously, it was mentioned in passing that Han and Leia got married on Endor. Now, at that point in both the EU and Canon, Han and Leia have been forcibly separated for a year and only actually got together a little bit before that. So, that’s really weird. But Revis is stuck with this. So she says to herself, “Why would they do this? Why would they move this quickly?”
And she remembers that this is Star Wars. They are living through war, they all almost died, and just spent a year forcibly separated. And they’ve decided that they’re done wasting time. Han just kind of…proposes and Leia (in typical fashion) debates for a second before deciding to take a leap of faith for love. It’s genuinely very, very sweet. Despite the title and cover this is not a romance book. There is no “will they won’t they” bullshit. Thank. God. They just get married and it’s really happy and Lando pranks Han into dressing nice, and it’s great. Then it’s a Star Wars adventure featuring Han and Leia.
That’s not to say Han and Leia don’t have any tension between them. The difference is it’s interesting. Han and Leia, especially her, do not know how to fully let each other into their lives. It isn’t that Han forgets for a bit that he married a very driven woman. He absolutely knows. His frustration stems from the fact that they are literally on their honeymoon, and Leia keeps leaving to work, because that is all she knows how to do. It is how she has coped with her trauma for three years. On the other hand, Leia feels like she is solely responsible for saving the galaxy, and that Han doesn’t understand that. Both sides of this argument are understandable. The book switches between Han and Leia’s perspectives. There are no stupid cutaways to Luke or space Fabio, there are no space witches. It is a focused relationship/ character study of Han and Leia while they’re on a decently interesting mission.
And the build up to the fight they end up having, is great. It’s a slow build up, you can feel their mutual frustration, and once they have the fight it is very cathartic. They don’t fight for the entire book either. They flirt and tease and have real conversations too.
So, after this huge fight, Leia is trying to divert the cruiser they’re on to this other planet, and Han finds out and helps her. Together, they succeed, but Leia is confused. They haven’t made up from their fight yet, and she asks why he helped her fight to go on a mission that’s going to take up more of their time. And Han says, “You’re my wife. If you’re running a con, I’m going to help you.”
Now, this might just be one of my favorite lines. Beth Revis understands that Han Solo is very loyal to the few people he cares about. He loves Leia, it’s why he goes back for her on Hoth at his own risk, why he saves Luke at Yavin and on Hoth. (She also understands the little bit of dorkiness Han Solo has beneath the posturing, up to the point that she gives him a sweet tooth.) Neither of them are overly mushy, they just love and respect each other.
There’s this great symbolism with their wedding rings. They’re made of hardened amber by the ewoks, and their fragility is a constant reminder of Han and Leia’s issues. They crack under pressure, and have to be maintained carefully. They eventually end up breaking under immense water pressure, but Han gives Leia a new ring (the one she wears in the sequels) reminiscent of the amber ones, symbolizing that they’re coming out stronger. It’s so sweet, and while it’s a little bit on the nose, it’s a great literary technique.
He’s acknowledging that he recognizes this part of Leia’s character, Leia realizes she needs to also put him first. In the aftermath, they both feel bad, apologize, and resolve to work on their issues together. And when they make-up, it feels real. This runs through the entire book, and the way it ends is really satisfying. Now, we know what happens to them in the sequels, so we can see how this conflict may come back into play later and lead to their eventual separation in canon. But, it’s also easy to see a different path where they work through these issues and live happily ever after. It’s just ambiguous enough to be read as either a prelude to eventual tragedy or the beginning of a long, happy life between two complex people. (I prefer the first one, but whatever).
Other things I liked:
- Han proposing. It’s literally that “I want you” “For what?” “A really long time.” quote on the internet.
Han: I want you.
Leia: Me? For what?
Han: Forever. Marry me.
- Leia tells Han about her true parentage and he just does not care. Like, he’s sympathetic towards her feelings, but is like, “why would this impact my love for you?”
- Leia finally lets herself do something spontaneous.
- Luke and Mon Mothma ship it.
- This quote:
Leia: About time.
Han: For what?
Leia: You once promised me a good kiss. I’ve been waiting.
- The conflict on Madurs is also pretty interesting. Leia is unwilling to let another planet die, giving an insight into Leia’s feelings about Alderaan, especially since Madurs values art like Alderaan.
Honestly, I want Beth Revis to write the canon “trip to Bespin” book.
Also…
This book kind of implies that Leia is bi? There’s a scene where Leia is remembering a conversation with her mother. So, when Alderaanian royals get married, their parent straps the ceremonial Rhindon sword (also used during their coronation) around their waist before the wedding.
In the flashback, Breha specifically says “whoever you marry” and “your husband or wife”…
Some people may say that it’s just ‘forced inclusion’ but that’s boring. Now, in the EU, fanon, and canon, Leia always puts emphasis on how close she and her parents were. This is something that I don’t think is ever particularly well illustrated, especially in canon. In parts the Kenobi series (she gets better later) and Leia, Princess of Alderaan, Breha in particular comes off as really unlikable.
But, if Leia isn’t over romanticizing (and there’s no indication that she is), she was really close to her parents. So, it stands to reason that her mother would know her sexuality. They at least seem really accepting in this passage, so it doesn’t seem like something Leia would keep from them.
I have no other evidence, and as far as I know, Leia is always seen in romances with men in both canon and legends, but in this context, it is a very interesting hint of something new about her character.

Star Wars AU where Anakin never becomes Vader.
There are two options for when he meets Han:
*Anakin, now Vader, fights against his daughter, Leia Skaywalker, in Mustafar*
Leia: It's over dad! I have the high ground!
Anakin/Vader: you're not allowed to date that scoundrel!
Leia*tired and angry*: get over it father! You're being dramatic!
Anakin/Vader: I HATE HIM!
Or
*Anakin meets Leia and Han next to the Falcon*
Leia: Dad, this is my boyfriend, Han Solo.
Han: it's a pleasure to meet you, Sir.
Anakin: So... Are you a pilot?
Han: yes. Captain of the millennium falcon. The fastest ship in the galaxy!
Anakin: is that Corellian freighter?
Han: Yes. It made the kessel run in less than twelve parsecs.
Anakin: I never pilot a corellian ship before. It looks like a great ship.
Leia: Wait! what?
Anakin: maybe I could pilot it someday? Or even a little race to see which ship is the fastest!
Han: Of course! That's a great idea!
Leia*still shocked*: you liked that bathtub?
Han: At least some Skaywalker has good taste.
Leia: Yeah, I am the one dating you.
Han*a little confused*: What does that supposed to mean?
Leia: nothing...
//////
Star Wars AU onde Anakin nunca se torna Vader.
Existem duas opções para quando ele conhecer o Han:
*Anakin, agora Vader, luta contra sua filha, Leia Skaywalker, em Mustafar*
Leia: Acabou pai! Eu estou em terreno firme!
Anakin/Vader: você não pode namorar aquele canalha!
Leia*cansada e com raiva*: supera isso pai! Você está sendo dramático!
Anakin/Vader: EU ODEIO ELE!
Ou
*Anakin encontra Leia e Han ao lado do Falcon*
Leia: Pai, esse é o meu namorado, Han Solo.
Han: é um prazer conhece-lo, senhor.
Anakin: então... Você é um piloto?
Han: sim. Capitão do Millenium Falcon. A nave mais rápida da galáxia!
Anakin: é aquele cargueiro coreliano?
Han: Sim. Ela fez o percurso de kessel em menos de doze parsecs.
Anakin:Nunca pilotei uma nave corelliana antes. Parece um grande navio.
Leia: Espera! O que?!
Anakin: talvez eu possa pilotá-la algum dia? Ou até mesmo uma pequena corrida para ver qual nave é mais rápida!
Han: é claro! É uma ótima ideia!
Leia*ainda chocada*: você gostou daquela banheira?
Han: Pelo menos algum Skaywalker tem bom gosto.
Leia: é, eu sou aquele que está namorando você.
Han: O que isso quer dizer?
Leia: Nada

Star Wars : The Hope in Wild Space
Leia strode into Hanger Bay 7 tugging her gloves more firmly into position, her face equally set. Her focus was such that none of the handful of Pilots called out greetings, though traditionally they would do so. Not today. Not with that look on her face and the way she was rather glaring at the Millennium Falcon as her small white clad figure, all straight spine and sped steps, made her way across the bay toward it. Brown eyes flickered to the roof where no one was and without breaking stride walked up the gangplank.
With anyone else, anyone else, all she would have had to do was request they come to her and give them their orders. Not with Han, even after all they'd been through. Or perhaps because of all they had been through.
She found him in a shallow access pit surrounded by a splay of tools. Instantly it struck her how attractive he was, but this was business so she pushed that thought right out of her head. There was also this business of him working on the Falcon. The Princess was very straight lipped as she calculated just what she would do if Han's ship was out of commission again. Leia put a fist on her hip as she came to a stop.

Día 22: Resolver un misterio/Crimen.
“Se dicen muchas cosas de la familia Palpatine.
Los murmullos sobre Sheev aún persisten en Theed a pesar de que lleva muerto casi cuarenta años, mucho antes de que cualquiera de ellos naciera.
Lo que queda de la abandonada mansión del excanciller se encuentra a las afueras de la ciudad, siendo accesible para que Luke, Leia y Han la explorasen.
Cuando llega la noche de brujas deciden aventurarse a descubrir por qué la familia fundadora de Naboo desapareció de la noche a la mañana cuando estaban en su mayor punto de fama y gloria.
Descifrar cómo está relacionado Hego Damask con la caída de los senadores de Naboo podría resultar ser más peligroso de lo que anticiparon cuando una sombra se hace presente en la mansión.
Sin duda lo que encuentren en Exegol cambiará la forma en que los fundadores Palpatine son percibidos por el país de los lagos.”
