the deleted dialogue where padme says she was so young when she went to the naboo capital, she hadn’t seen a waterfall before, does fuck me up. it paints a picture of her pre-queen upbringing as maybe a little more similar to anakin’s, in some remote, dry place. because it’s deleted dialogue i can just spiral forever

It's weird now to remember how much goodwill I extended to the Maya Pei Brigade stuff at the time. In retrospect it feels like that would've been a good moment to have Cassian do a morally grey thing, take charge for the sake of the mission or something upon those lines, but instead it starts this pattern of him not really taking part in any compromising conflicts or decisions while everyone else is getting compromised or making mistakes.
