The Star Wars main theme begins to play as LionRoar74 descends from above the stage via a wire harness.
LionRoar74: Welcome back to the long-awaited return of Questionnaire with the Star Wars Stars! I know, I know, it's been a while-
3PO: Approximately almost three standard galactic years.
Han: Not helping, Goldenrod!
LionRoar: But now we're finally back and better than ever! And today's interviewee is our favorite senator and former youngest queen of Naboo- Padme Amidala Skywalker!
Padme walks in and sits down.
Luke: Hi, Mom!
Padme waves to Luke.
LionRoar: Hello, Padme. Are you ready to answer some questions?
Padme: Of course!
LionRoar: All righty, then! The first question is from LivinLaVidaLoki!
Those intricate dresses, hairstyles, and makeup you wore as queen look like they would be a pain in the butt to put on. Were they?
Padme: Admittedly yes. My handmaidens would assist me with getting in the dresses and doing my hair, though some styles had ornate headpieces which were fairly heavy. They were very elegant, but tricky to shoot in due to the limited movement. Using the refresher was especially a hassle.
Satine: I'm glad I never had to wear that much makeup as Duchess.
Obi-Wan: Yes, it would hide too much of your beautiful face.
Audience: Awww!
LionRoar: Next question is from Rancorclaw!
Did you or Anakin know you were going to have twins?
Padme: No, neither of us had any idea it was more than one baby. We wanted the gender to be a surprise, so Anakin didn't use the force to look. He thought we would be having a girl, whereas I believed it was a boy. In the end, we were both right.
Leia: So you were the expected one and I was the surprise.
Luke: Yep.
LionRoar: Next question is from SuperTrooper17!
How many handmaidens have you had?
Padme: I've had several both as queen and senator. When I was queen, I had Sabe who was my primary decoy, Rabe, Eirtae, Sache, and Yane. Then as senator I had Corde who died in Zam Wesell's attack, Dorme, Verse, Duja, Elle, Motee, and Teckla. So, 12 in total.
Kanan: (whistles) That's a lot of handmaidens. How'd you keep their names straight?
Padme: It wasn't too difficult for me.
LionRoar: Next question is from Hamdalorian!
How hard was it keeping your marriage secret?
Padme: It was definitely tricky. We had more than a few close calls where we were almost discovered. Once Rex accidentally found us kissing in an empty room. It gave us a heart attack, but thankfully he swore to keep our secret. The difficulty increased when I was pregnant because I had to hide my extra-large belly bump.
Ahsoka: I had a hunch after a while.
Obi-Wan: I did as well.
LionRoar74: Now it's time for cast questions! First up from SpectreSix!
How did you speak in front of all those people in the senate? It must have made you nervous at first.
Padme: It was a little nerve-wracking at first, but I'd always been good at public speaking since I was a girl so it didn't really bother me.
LionRoar: Next is from SkyGuyJedi!
Are you an angel?
Padme: (chuckles) Very funny, Ani.
LionRoar: Next is from KyloBen!
Um, hi grandmother. Were you ever mad at grandfather for what he did as Darth Vader, not just to the galaxy but to you, mom, and Uncle Luke?
Padme: I was definitely angry with him for what he did, but I didn't blame him for it. He was manipulated and controlled by Palpatine as you were, and had thought Luke and Leia had died alongside me. He also told me that he was in a lot of pain and discomfort from both his injuries and the suit. Anakin more than redeemed himself when he saved Luke from Palpatine's lightning, just as you did when you saved Rey.
Ben: (blushes) Thank you… grandmother.
Padme: You're more than welcome, Ben.
Anakin: I'm truly sorry, angel, for all that I've done.
Padme: I know. But you still shouldn't have cut Luke's hand off or tortured Leia!
Anakin: In my defense, I didn't know Leia was our daughter at the time. And I deeply regret hurting our children.
Leia: It's all right. We forgive you.
Padme, Luke, and Leia all hug Anakin.
Audience: (cheers)
LionRoar: One more question from Hi-Tech!
You weren't offended by the art of you we had on the nose of our ship, were you? If you were, I deeply apologize.
Padme: It wasn't severely offensive to me, mostly just… less than flattering. Anakin, though, was definitely offended.
Anakin: Well, yeah! She's my wife!
Hunter: Sorry about that.
Padme: It's okay, Hunter.
LionRoar: Anywho, that's all for today! Join us next time for Anakin's interview!
Audience: Yaayyy!
