Excessively Queer

I am unable to do that

I am too stressed out to do that

I cannot face the humiliation of attempting to do that

My body will physically not allow me to do that

I am on the verge of a panic attack

I cannot do that

What people hear:

I am unwilling to do that

I am just shy

I am overreacting

I am lazy

I need to get more experience in social situation to help my anxiety

I need a push

Can I do it for you?

Would you like my help doing it?

Would you like to go somewhere where you feel can do that?

Is there anything I can do to either alleviate your anxiety or help you do it?

What about it can you not do? (And then, sub-sequentially, would you like help with that part/is there anything I can do to help with that)

these responses are literally SO important when you have anxiety

Sometimes things are really scary and if someone has confided in you that they can’t do something because of their anxiety, you should treat it as best you can

“You’re an artist. You’re a creator. You were meant to do this.”

Like, Bail Organa, bless his poor poor soul, tried to politician the Vader out of her. He tried SO FUCKING HARD. 

Leia, though. Leia is very much Anakin’s child. She is the one with the deep anger in her. She is the one who will bring peace to her new empire freedom and justice back to the galaxy whether the galaxy wants it or not. She is the one who commands armies and amasses followers as easy as breathing. She joined the Rebellion while she was in her teens. She is the one with the spirit of a warrior.

Don’t get me wrong; Bail Organa did his damnedest to raise her in the mold of her mother, fighting her battles in the halls of power with words as her weapons. And she was very good at it. But unlike Padme, Leia’s words always had an edge to them, her tone and meaning always a little too sharp, a little too angry.
