Here’s something that could happen:

Connie arrives at the Gem Temple, prepared for training with Pearl. Leia has asked to watch, since she is curious to see her young friend at work. Connie is quiet and distracted as she changes and gets ready for practice.

Leia: What’s on your mind?

Connie: Huh? What?

Leia: You’ve been distracted today -- I’d hate to see you get hurt during practice, if you can’t concentrate.

Connie: (Timidly) ...It’s my mom.

(She keeps looking for Pearl -- she doesn’t want her teacher to see her this distracted)

Leia: You’ve mentioned her, before…

Connie: …The way things are going, I’m gonna have to tell her sooner or later about this… I’ve already promised to tell her about what’s happening when I’m with Steven, but…

Leia: But this is much more serious. Isn’t it?

Connie: ...Yeah… I want to do what I can, but… if she gets too upset about me helping…

Leia: (Putting a hand on Connie’s shoulder) Tell you what -- you can tell your mother about it today, before things get worse. I’ll come with you and talk to her, too.

Connie: (Calmer and more focused now) Oh… Okay! That’d be great! But, are you sure you can spare the time? I mean, you’re still leading the Rebels, aren’t you?

Leia: (Smiles) “you are right, Connie, and I’m glad you’re thinking of that too, but even so, I can make time for people outside of Military obligations. And I’d be glad to help you with whatever issues you may have with you telling your mother about all this, I certainly do owe you a lot. Besides, after the Death Star was destroyed, there have been a lot more people who’ve rallied to the Alliance’s cause, believing the Empire isn’t as strong as it claims to be. And, I’m not the only one who runs the rebels. Mothma, Iblis, Dodanna, Ackbar and many others have kept stability when I’m not around. So there’s no reason I can’t help you with your mom.”

(I imagine too that maybe Leia had some ways of getting around some of her mom’s conniptions, queen Breha I mean, her adopted mom.)

(After practice, at the Maheshwaren house. Connie has invited Leia in, just as she’s seen her mother’s car pull into the driveway.)

Connie: Mom!

Dr. M: Hello connie (Notices Leia) and who may I ask is this?

Connie: oh, mom, I’d like you to meet someone -- Mom, this is Leia Organa, and Leia, this is my mom.

Dr. M: Hello, Ms. Organa.

Leia: It’s a pleasure to meet you, Dr. Maheshwaren -- your daughter has spoken highly of you.

Dr. M: (Knowing how Connie speaks of her) Has she really? May I ask, how do you know Connie?

Connie: I met her while I was with Steven… Uh… during that time when we were gone for a few days, and I couldn’t contact you.

Dr M: (Alarmed, but not showing it) Is that so? In that case, who are you, in relation to Connie’s friend Steven?

Leia: I’m a Senator and an ambassador. Or, I used to be...

Dr. M: From which country?

Connie and Leia share a look. Dr. M knows what that means.

Dr. M: I’m going to need to sit down, aren’t I?

After a few moments of Connie explaining Leia being from another galaxy and all the other complications that came with it, Dr Maheshwaren sits down and crosses her arms, watching her daughter with disappointment.

Dr. M: And you want to fight in a war with these people?

Connie: (miserably) Mom -- it’s not what you think!

Dr. M: Absolutely not. I understand you learning how to fight with a sword, if you’re going to be hanging out with the Universe boy -- if you’re going to be in danger and there’s nothing we can do to protect you from it, it at least makes sense that you learn to defend yourself. But a war front is completely different -- beyond getting hurt, you could be captured, you could get stranded and marooned on a strange planet…

Connie: MOM!

Leia: Doctor Maheshwaren -- I understand and completely agree with you. In fact, I would personally insist that Connie stayed out of it -- I’m a part of this fight against the galactic empire because I have no other alternative, and it’s a war based in my own home. I’ve pretty much signed my own death warrant with the Empire multiple times over. Not only is Connie not obligated, it would be unethical of us to ask for her help.

Dr M: (Taken aback, but recovering quickly) Well, I’m glad we’re in agreement then.

(Connie is staring at Leia, hurt and betrayed)

Leia: However, it’s not just out of a selfless ideal that your daughter is willing to fight alongside myself and my people. She’s volunteering for a more pragmatic and personal reason -- because, in coming to this galaxy, there’s a risk that our war will become a threat to the people of THIS world.

(Dr. Maheshwaren looks to her daughter for confirmation, and Connie just hangs her head, miserably)

Leia: Connie is offering to volunteer her skills and abilities because, on the chance that this planet is targeted at any time, she will be vital to the safety of everyone here. She’s not only planning ahead and taking the steps to prepare, but she’s taking on a responsibility that not many girls her age willingly step into. And she’s doing it to protect her home -- just as I am doing what I can to protect mine.

Dr. M: (surprised) Connie… you…

Connie: Mom, please…

Dr. Maheshwaren is obviously distressed. She looks between Leia and Connie for a moment, fumbling for the right words to say, before she sinks back into her chair.

Dr M: Connie, you understand that this is dangerous -- and it’s serious, too. There’s some things you can’t prepare for. And, even if we take it as best case scenario, and your joining this rebel alliance does save the Earth from any kind of war, if something happens to you…

Connie: Mom, I’ll be okay…

Dr. M: It’s not going to be okay for us! (She starts to cry) You’re… all we have…

Connie had never thought of it like that. She’s equally surprised to hear her mother say it, and accepts the hug her mother pulls her into. Leia has been silent, letting both of them say their piece, before she interjects.

Leia: I can’t guarantee Connie will be safe -- any more than I can for any of our other soldiers -- but she won’t be alone. There will be other people fighting alongside her, and for every one of them that joins this fight, the safer all the others are. That’s why she’s offering to help us. And I’ve seen what your daughter is capable of -- her abilities are more than enough.

Dr M: ...So, I guess I should start trusting you, then? (Connie doesn’t answer -- Leia does)

Leia: More than trust -- Believe in Connie.

Doctor Maheshwaren dries her eyes and lets out a breath of tension.

Dr. M: ...What am I going to tell your father?

Connie: … The… same thing I told you?

Would you consider putting on Alliance base on Earth or maybe on Venus it has the hydrogen stuff that could fuel cars and everything

bismuth can even help build their base

so I can imagine a base somewhere around its planet they could train soldiers and everything without fear of being discovered the Empire knows nothing of Earth by far and the only ones who have been to Earth and its solar system are the gems I could imagine dr. Mahesh Warren volunteering time to time as a medical officer and her husband as security they could offer him Droids that could Patrol Beach City if any trouble stirs up as well as keep an eye out for any Imperial activities that might be present Law & Order protocol droids with built-in stun weaponry and they could send live feed to local police officers and everything of crimes in progress as well as recorded So that way the justice system isn't taking advantage of I say this because it reminds me of Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic the Jedi Civil War on the planet Taris we saw protocol droids walking around everywhere and you can ask them questions and everything I really like that

I'm saying this because of the episode reunited that it came to me when yellow and blue come to Earth to fight Steven and everybody I imagine the base being alerted to the gem's presence and everything while they're too late to stop them from descending from Earth I can see a bunch of x-wings why wings and maybe some Freighters in the the Skies of Beach City the blockade runners help the cluster fight off yellow diamonds ship while the fighters attack bluediamond I could see her getting torpedoed in the back buy a proton torpedo she turns infuriated asking who did that then the fighters are coming along the ocean waves of Beach City just like in the force awakens that was a pretty cool scene they all get a live feed of the wedding with garnet and some personal people get to be there Luke on Leia

Thank you! (A lot of that came from Sam, and I only put it here so there’d be something interesting in the comments section.) you think Leia may’ve been out of character a little bit, or what?

I don't really know the ins and outs of her personality, but it doesn't make me think "woa that's SO NOT Leia" so I think you're good

You know, I wonder if this could remind her of her own mother too. (And by that I mean Queen Breha Of Alderaan Or Padmé.)

Still no comments on this one. Wonder why? Is it just boring or something? I don't get it.

LittleSnaketail In reply to Makutakin [2017-04-12 02:04:56 +0000 UTC]

I think it's because it's 'boring', as you put it, especially without context. You have to keep in mind that most people don't know what the whole thing is about like you and I do.

Dang. Well, maybe people will pay attention to this when we get to it in the story. Or not...

Also, these are just sketches. I wish I could draw something full color and epic, but well, haven't got the skills, nor the time.

Maybe some of these could inspire those who do have those kinds of skills. But, we'll just have to wait and see...
