No way. You're Leia, you're smoother than this.

[The mention of the moon of Endor has his eyes widening and both eyebrows raising as high as they can go.]

You mean... around the time the Death Star was destroyed? [Wow, that's a really early canon point.] So I know your future? Wait-- you mentioned things from the future too!

[oratorical]

The second Death Star, yes.

[Which she says just a bit bitterly. She's allowed to be bitter about any and all Death Stars. They shouldn't exist, even if they do keep getting destroyed.]

Are you saying there's more than just those movies about my life?

[dragonring]

[She's totally allowed to be bitter about Death Stars, yes, Dave won't blame her for that. And if it makes her forget about the weird feelings he caused, all the better.]

You have no idea. The movies are the main source, what it started it all. The first three are about you, and Luke, and Han. They start with R2D2 getting your message to Obi Wan and end with... well, what you just lived. Then they made prequels - Anakin's story. [He pulls a face - still salty about that!] But since the beginning there was a lot of extra material. Novels, games, comics, you name it. I could tell you about your grandchildren.

My grandchildren.

[She sounds a bit amuses, a bit skeptical, because that's quite the claim to make. And she'd like to imagine the galaxy is at peace when the war is over, and that there aren't any exciting stories to tell, because there's no more danger or anything for her family. She knows better than to assume that, but she would like to think that's what happens.]

Go on, then.
