Leia Organa loved him. She loved the Hutt, even though she was his prisioner. She loved his eyes, “big as apples.” She loved that “the sight of something as trivial as the Sarlacc” could move him to tears. She loved his insatiable appetites and his “particular complications and particular darkness.”

Dearest Martha,
The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover.
Yours in glaze,
