Leia too marveled at how big Ben had become sometimes. She could still remember holding him in her arms, rocking him and singing Alderaanian lullabies, and now here he was, a grown man, asking her advice about relationships. How time flew, and how much she had missed.
At the comment about Luke, Leia snorted slightly. "Let me worry about Luke," she said. "He might be your Jedi Master, but he's my baby brother. And this time he's got me around to give him a metaphorical kick in the backside if he starts getting too wrapped up in being a Jedi to see past the end of his nose." Or maybe even a literal kick, depending on the situation. "This is between you, Rey, and Poe and if he tries to interfere he's going to hear it from me."
"Still, with them not being interested in each other, it'll make things a bit more difficult if and when you do feel ready to consider sleeping with them in the other sense of the term," Leia said. "I'm sure some kind of arrangement can be worked out, though. If necessary I'll help you with that; I've become something of an expert at schedule juggling lately."
"But that's still in the future at the moment," she said, "so we can cross that bridge when we come to it. For now, tell me, how far have you gone with both of them? I don't need all the minute details, just a rough idea of what sorts of things you've done together that are more than just what friends would do."
