007-- going through the motions

[nodifferentfate]

A: diner ;; morning

[Padmé can be found seated in one of the booths, eyeing a menu with a mild expression on her face. Those dark circles under her eyes? More from stress than just lack of sleep.]

B: mayfield high ;; afternoon

[Marking papers handed in by droids is never an exciting prospect due to the fact that none of their opinions really differ. But the mundane task is actually pretty enjoyable for Padmé's current situation, so she's buried in work behind her desk.]

C: 1127 taylor road ;; evening

[Outside on the front porch, Padmé alternates between pacing and leaning against one of the banisters. One hand rubs tiredly at her eyes, while the other rests over her japor snippet.

Has she taken that thing off ever since getting it in the mail? The answer is no.]

[She's silent as she thinks that over, her eyes downcast.]

Then I suppose it's impossible for you to ever see him in a different light, then.

[of_alderaan]

Impossible is a strong word.

I believed Luke when he claimed there was some good in him. However it has not been that long yet.

And in town, if he were from before his fall ...or after his sacrifice, I'm sure it would be much easier.

But he is Darth Vader here.

[nodifferentfate]

He hasn't done anything here yet to condemn himself, so why do you assume he will?

[of_alderaan]

He serves the Emperor.
