Leia raised an eyebrow at Amalia, who was no longer looking in her direction. She then changed the subject, smiling as she did so.

"I suppose this means the next time I have to go on a trip like this, I can figure you'll be wanting to stay at home."

Amalia struggled slightly as she tried to sit up, a small sign of pain reaching her face. She didn't look toward Leia, but her face could still be seen, she smiled.

"...and leave you to take on all the adventure, I think not..."

She slowly turned her head back toward Leia, looking at her seriously.

"...and I'd do it all over again, if I had to."

Leia smiled.

"Good to know. If I had to do it all over again, I couldn't get it done without you."

With that, Leia threw her covers off again, slid out of the bed, and stood beside it.

"I don't know about you, but I think it's time I got out of this place!"

Leia searched around the room for a pair of footwear to put on, and eventually found a pair of slippers, which she decided would just have to do.

"So, do you want to get out of here? I'm sort of ready to go home... to Naboo, I mean, myself..."

Amalia seemed a little dazed at the question, but it quickly passed shortly after

"Huh?..."

She shook her head, trying to get rid of her flusters.

"Oh yeah, sure. Just a seconds..."

Amalia had not been out of bed once since she had been put into the room, and her legs still seemed to be bothering her a great deal.

...and that is why when she shifted her legs over to the side of the bed and stood up, she let out what could be considered almost like a yelp.

She watched Leia try to approach her, but quickly stopped her. Placing one hand up, she shook her head quickly.

"S'alright, just give me a second..."

Slowly she began to walk around her bed, and got her own foot wear, and then nodded to Leia silently.

Leia screwed up her face in a somewhat silly, unreadable expression at Amalia.

"You are so stubborn, you know..."

She grinned.

"Just like me. One wonders how we even manage to live with each other sometimes."

Leia noted a bowl of fruit sitting on the bedside table, apparently what had been set there for her breakfast, which she had neglected to eat this morning. She grinned slyly, and looked up from the bowl to Amalia, with a measuring glance.

Amalia seemed to pick up Leia's intent, and held both hands up as if in defense, taking an unsteady step backwards.

"Oh no you don't..." She began to say, but it was too late. She was pelted with a heavy rain of little green oval shaped fruits no larger than half the length of a human thumb, and just about the width of one.

Leia ended Amalia's fruitshower with an odd looking blue colored thing, which she deliberately threw so that it did not hit Amalia, instead it sailed past her ear with only inches to spare.

Leia broke out into a fit of laughter, and then covered the distance to the door in a few running steps. She darted out of the room before the other Jedi Master could react, leaving Amalia alone, and feeling quite... 'fruited'.

Apparently, some things would just never change...
