[She has no idea that there was a time where she wouldn't have known Leia's name, although she would come to understand in time here how it is possible. She's truly only heard it spoken out loud once, mind you, and that was from her own lips as she gifted each child only one thing- their name.
Of course in Padmé's mind, there is still a babe but newly born and it is hard to rectify that with the grown adult that is standing before her. She knew she would miss much, or rather everything, but that small stray thought as the darkness came versus the reality of it is as stark as day and night. But there is not a trace of doubt that this might be some falsehood or jest. The proof stands right before her.]
You're far bigger than last I saw you.
[Came that tender voice as she steps towards her, a hand tentatively reaching out to cup her cheek. She seems to favour Padmé when it comes to looks, although at the moment it is all that Padmé can comment internally on. Both her and Anakin were strong willed individuals, stubborn with a touch (or more) of recklessness to boot, yet compassionate as well.
And she is staring now, but not rudely, rather almost in awe.]
Hello, Leia. I never thought- This is unexplainable, but wonderful.
