[Excuse the owlish-eyed girl with the weird pasted-on smile. She has things to talk about!]

Attention...!

I will not use names, because I don't want to embarrass them, b-but...! I needed to tell a very particular pilot something very important! And that is this: if you do d-decide to propose to Miss L — to, ummmm... to your girlfriend, you should not give her a ring made out of spaceship parts. Because that's kind of strange to wear. I believe that sort of advice should be applied to everyone, though...!

Unless the person you love really, really, really enjoys spaceships.

I suppose we should all wear what makes us happy!

I do admit, I've always wanted jewelry... I-I mean, I know they're very expensive most of the time, but I've never gotten to wear any before. Maybe I should make some! Oh, but I don't think I would be very good at it... Is there a particular way to make nice jewelry, even for someone like me? Necklaces and rings and....

....

I don't think I can wear earrings. That seems like it would hurt.

Ah!! I apologize, I guess I've been thinking so much about different topics! Like — games, and stories, and stuff to wear, and so many new things that I've never gotten to enjoy myself before. I think I even have.... friends! Do I? Is there a level that I need to reach with people before I can be friends with them? P-perhaps there's a way to officiate friendships...

Maybe with rings, like marriage! Friendship rings!!

He can be, sometimes. How do you two know each other?

He was kind to me when I first arrived! I was very afraid and I felt very much like I was back to being a normal slave again, but he was trying to make me feel better. And tell me that I was not a slave!

[ It must have hit him hard, to speak to a slave (or, it seems, a recently-freed slave). But he'd set it aside and focused on helping her. And it makes her strangely proud to hear how kind he is, how strong he is. She doubts he told Koala anything about his life before the Jedi. And it's not Padme's place to say anything. ]

That sounds like him. He's very kind, even when he seems too serious. That's part of the reason I love him.

It's so romantic. I'm so happy for you two!

He does seem rather serious though, doesn't he? He should play more games.

Maybe he should. He likes card games-- maybe he'll play if you ask.
