So apparently survivor's guilt was genetic too. Wonderful.
Part of the problem, he starts thinking, is that the whole issue in their
conversation had started with Anakin taking exception to what he'd seen as
a frivolous Alderaanian custom forced on Leia as a child (wearing hair
extensions just for the look of it? He still thinks it's ridiculous). But,
he guesses, she'd seen it as more of an attack on something she cherished
and would never get back. The difference between them was that he'd done
everything he could to divorce himself of the slave boy from Tatooine.
There were no customs there that he'd wanted to hold on to, not really.
"I was thinking a moment ago that if Tatooine were blown up by someone, I'm
not sure I'd shed any tears. I don't have the same attachment," woo for one
attachment he doesn't have, "to my home planet that Leia does to
Alderaan. It doesn't mean the same to me. Obviously, it's different for
her. To be honest, I still think the hair thing is ridiculous, especially
for little girls. But, I don't make a fuss about everything Padme
does for Naboo," and in a way, quite a lot of their custom and ritual
seemed similar, "so there's that. It's just that...what she told me? Felt
more like the Organas at least in that instance cared more about
appearances than about the little girl they were raising. My little
girl," so there was some possessiveness to it. "I didn't like that. I
don't."
