Summary
The entryway is lit, but as Leia approaches the kitchen with its door flung wide open, she realises that whoever is inside has not bothered to switch on the overhead light. On light feet, she comes to stand in the doorway, peering into the dark room beyond. The figure on the other side of the room is practically unrecognisable, shrouded as he is in shadow. He could be anyone. He could be a stranger. The thought sends a thrill through Leia.
Leia flicks the light switch and Anakin exclaims in shock and abruptly spins around to face her.

Summary
“I can vouch for him. I know he has expressed enmity towards you in the past, but while Cassius is proud, he also has a soldier’s training. He knows that he has lost; he will accept the yoke now,” Brutus assures him, desperation creeping into his voice.
Caesar leans back in his chair and tilts his head slightly, the lamplight bathing one side of his face and leaving the other in darkness.

Summary
Leia is sitting at the kitchen table with a cigarette dangling from her painted lips when Luke arrives. He’s carrying a toolbox and his footsteps are heavy as he shuffles from the entryway to the kitchen. As he comes through the doorway, he pauses to set down his tools and looks up to find his sister wearing a face as cold and unyielding as marble.
“Are you alright?" he says softly, taking a few steps towards her.

Summary
It’s eight o’clock on a Friday evening and Han's red Ford Falcon is idling by the curb. Leia goes first to the driver’s door, the window of which is lowered, and leans inside to kiss Han on the lips, staining his mouth with her cherry-bright lipstick, before circling around to the other side of the car and climbing into the passenger seat.

Summary
Of course, Obi-Wan does not understand why Anakin would want to punish himself; Obi-Wan was born a person, and Anakin was born property. As much as the elder Jedi pretends they are equal, Anakin knows that there is something inferior, lesser, sub-human about him. In his every cell.
Anakin Skywalker is a creature forged in chains and shame.

If he could, Anakin would cut Padmé open and crawl inside to curl himself around her heart. There, he would sleep as soundly as a babe in a manger with her pulsing life in his hands. There, he would never be forced to leave her again.

Summary
A young Anakin Skywalker is delighted when, on a mission to Rodia, he finds a lone egg 'abandoned' in its nest. He brings the egg back to Coruscant with him, planning to raise the bird as his own. He even gives her a name similar to Padmé's. Only, when his bird begins to want independence, Anakin doesn't take it well.
The bird is a metaphor.
