leia organa?
I replied:
Nice :D
1. Sexuality headcanon: Bi!
2. OTP: You know, I don’t really have one at this point? I sort of ship Han/Leia, in the sense that Harrison and Carrie sold it really well, but I have too many reservations about his conduct in ESB to really consider it a OTP. OTOH, interpreting ‘OTP’ broadly, I really like Luke/Han/Leia.
3. BROTP: Luke, of course, and not only in the literal sense! I just … love them together so much.
4. NOTP: Honestly, most Leia ships. But I once stumbled over Vader/Leia from the pre-ROTJ days and was like AGHHHHH BRAIN BLEACH STAT.
5. First headcanon that pops into my head: I’ve never thought Leia was temperamentally suited for politics and I think she’s clearly much happier as part of the ROTJ strike team than a remote leader. I don’t imagine her as a politician after ROTJ at all (as ever, I don’t care about the SWEU).
6. Favorite line from this character: lol, I genuinely don’t know! I do love “Only you could be so bold” as if she herself isn’t being that bold at that exact moment.
7. One way in which I relate to this character: I don’t shrug off obstacles quite the way Leia does, but I do relate a lot to the strength of her convictions and frustration with those who don’t share them. She’s stronger than I am, though!
8. Thing that gives me second-hand embarrassment about this character: slave Leia. It’s not embarrassment in the sense that she’s embarrassed or doing anything embarrassing, but the whole treatment of her with that is cringe-worthy (killing Jabba ameliorates but does not negate this).
