i’m in the middle of re-watching the original sw trilogy and hands down the best thing about esb is leia and han experiencing the same feelings for eachother but at totally different speeds.
leia, processing emotions at a reasonable pace: i think i like him
han, that same afternoon: dead diary i have accepted that she hates me but instead of dealing with the heartache like a mature adult i’m gonna catch a big-ass attitude and insist on returning to a life of crime where i don’t have to worry about dumb things like being in love.
leia: you’re quite nice when you aren’t being such a scoundrel
han, vibrating with the effort to keep from launching himself vertically into the vacuum of space: s c o und rel
leia: i love you
han, making a mental note to start practicing his brand new ‘mr. organa’ signature the second he’s out of the carbonite: i know
on the other hand remember how in rotj he decided to slow down on making unfounded assumptions about leia’s interest in him and accidentally slowed all the way down?
han: so um, i think it’s really cool that you love luke, you guys are gonna be great together haha guess i’ll see you guys around sometime?!?!?!
leia, already taking her clothes off: god han you’re so fucking stupid
leia: i am leia organa, princess of alderaan, and i’m in charge here flyboy
