Leia smiled warmly at how Ben described his partners. "And yet, out of all the eligible young people on base, they both chose you," she said. "You're the one they want, flaws and all, knowing that you don't have as much time or romantic skill to offer as others probably do. Because they love all of you; not just the bright, shiny, undamaged parts. Take my advice and just give them what you can, when you can; I know they'll appreciate it."
She chuckled at BB-8's antics. "So that's what that was all about," Leia said. "I was wondering why Jessika looked so amused this morning when BB-8 rolled through."
"And I don't know," she said, clearly kidding, "we could certainly use a few more people that clever on our side."
